Introduction
Story: The world was collapsing upon itself; the continuous wars between different clans of various species have severely decreased the world's population. Two main factions have arisen, The Primates, who deem themselves more intelligent and powerful than any other species on earth, so far these soldiers have managed to subdue the majority of the world's population, the only groups out of their reach are the far outlying clans within countries in the far East and West. The second faction are those of the Reptiles, they are systematically taking over the bodies of water all across the globe; the birds have allied with them, making obtaining information much easier. The rest of the world is divided up into three different clans. The Greenpetal clan, which comprises of the far Eastern countries and Southeast Asia, the Druiden clan of Northern Europe, and finally the Red mountain clan in North America. These 5 different groups fight for a variety of reasons, some want control, others wish for peace and some just want to survive this chaos. It is now up to you to join one of these five and make their dreams come true.
The Primates are looking to subdue all other species; they are arrogant and intelligent, shrewd and cautious. They trust only their own kind and any interaction with members of other species, no matter how generous it seems, always ends up supporting their needs. Their goal is to create a global slave trade in order to form their indomitable civilization. They currently dominate a majority of Europe, Africa, and Asia. They are struggling for control over South America. Their leader, a silverback Gorilla named Orshak, is situated in his palace within the mountains of central Africa (Present-day Congo).
The Reptiles curse the land-bound species, they too are arrogant. Their goal is entirely different from that of the Primates for they seek the total eradication of all creatures who walk only on land. For generations they have been pushed aside to seek out a living by the rivers, lakes and oceans; barely able to seek different sources of food or traverse the beautiful landscape. Their history has caused them to rise as a single force and use tooth, claw, steel and magic to achieve their own ends. They currently dominate a majority of the world's coastlines and South America. Their leader, a Komodo Dragon named Kurshal, rules from the Island of Komodo in Indonesia.
The Greenpetal Clan looks for peace and balance in this world and thus, have allied with the Red Mountain Clan of North America. Frequent trading has occurred between these two clans (passing over the Pacific Ocean). They seek to undermine the Primates and Reptiles. Both clans are aware of the existence of the Druiden Clan of Europe and their similar aims, but since the Greenpetals are located in the far East and the Red Mountains are situated in the Western Half of North America neither can reach the Druiden Clan, located in present-day Britain, Norway, Denmark, Germany and France. Once in a while warriors and travellers of the three clans will meet up purely by chance. It is in these instances that as much information as possible is passed among themselves. The Greenpetal leader, a Panda named Yenn, is located on China's Eastern Coastline. The Druiden leader, Durnhel the bear, is in Denmark. The Red Mountain leader, Airis Swiftwind the cougar, commands from the northern tip of the Rocky Mountains.
Note: You choose your allegiance. For example, you can be a crocodilian shadow-caster who supports the Greenpetal Clan.
Regarding Magic; this world is mainly comprised of warriors, who do battle using various arms, from staves to great battleaxes. However there are some creatures that are able to use nature around them, as well as shadow and light magic to aid them. The manipulation of nature is a less powerful but very versatile type of magic. Containing both offensive and defensive capabilities the caster can play different and decisive roles in combat. Shadow magic is purely offensive; the wielders of such magic can cause devastating attacks but are unable to take hits from their enemies. Light magic is used solely for healing; it has no offensive or defensive capabilities whatsoever. The master of any one of these types of magic is an extremely useful addition to any group on the battlefield.
