Detesting honor and mercy, all those that fall under the sword of his worshipers shall find themselves subject to immediate slaughter to the last.

We should also develop "rivals", Gods we do not get along with, whom our domains are opposed too, and worshipers hate. Potentially get bonuses fighting each other.

Neat idea. Not too sure about the bonuses bit though, they'd just peeter out if both sides got them wouldn't they?

True, I guess that would only work if one was more powerful than another, and then you wouldn't need bonuses.

Heads up everyone, since classes just started up again for me recently, I won't be able to post very much from morning to early afternoon (Eastern Standard Time). Sorry for the trouble

[Actan]

Nation/Faction name: The Cults of Korak
Race(s): Humans, Orcs and Dark Elves
Patron God(s): Korak
Current Leader(s): Grand Butcher Varmon
Brief History:Little more than a variety of primitive tribes and warbands they were pushed out of mainstay society, they have formed together into groups to combine their hatred of others in the form of raiding parties. Capturing supplies and sacrifices, their mobility and nomadic lifestyle has made it difficult for the surrounding armies to locate the cults, although some are found and stamped.

The Cults focus only on killing. Killing is recreation, killing is art, killing is fun, in the Cults, and whenever someone unfortunate enough to be found by a Cult are put in chains and killed in the most brutal way imaginable. Those even more unfortunate find themselves the last remaining sacrifices, a position no mortal wants to find themselves in. Their lives are dragged out as the recipient for the cults hate until their lives mercifully end.

Some Cults grow large enough to threaten cities, and if a city should fall the Cult will enact unspeakable acts. Genocide and mass slaughter immediately follow.

Recently, a new human demagogue by the name of Varmon, attracting hundreds of Cults from across the region, has begun amassing a host of killers, criminals, and scum, attracting not just those from the cults but all those consumed by hatred for another. Rumors and fears have spread across the neighboring regions what the Grand Butcher, as he calls himself, plans on doing with this vast host....
Geographical area and key features: Plains with little vegetation but with plenty migrating animals.
Map Claim: The area between the two mountain ranges in the north-east continent.
Other details: Tribal despotism and all those that oppose Varmon are sacrificed.

Name: Grand Butcher Varmon
Age: Unknown
Race: Unknown, presumed to be so mutated by Korak as to be unrecognizable. Rumored to be human, possibly Dark Elf.
Allegiance: The Cults of Korak
Alignment: Korak
Appearance:

Occupation: Grand Butcher
Personality: Extremely violent and hateful. Anyone who annoys him, god forbid earns his ire, is slaughtered in a variety of gruesome ways, depending on his mood.
Weaknesses: Not especially intelligent, does not resort to tricks, and is so eager for the slaughter he may fall into a trap quite easily.
Strengths: Strength, tenacity, and fearlessness. Varmon has achieved his position through simple butchery, murdering all those who opposed him, while possessing enough intelligence and charisma to attract all other cults with the promise of more killing. So charismatic is he, that people from across the continent have come to hear his gospel of hate, enlarging the unholy horde even more.
Special Skills and Defining Traits:

Gospel of Hate: Varmon can rally the vast hordes around him to fight no matter the opposition. Those who hear his words are so overcome by hatred that any physical or spiritual obstacle seems like a weed to be cut down. Strength, resolve, and morale all skyrocket among forces loyal to him, while the enemy is petrified by fear and hopelessness as they hear his prophetic visions of their grisly demise.

Blessed for Slaughter: Varmon is so physically imposing people question whether or not he is an avatar of Korak himself. Towering above others and carrying weapons that would be break the arms of Orcs, he is a fearsome foe in one on one combat, and can sweep aside weaklings with his massive sword like playthings. This impressive physicality also instill fear into friend and foe alike, as they dare not challenge him.

Bring me the Innocents: Varmon is so obsessed with slaughter, he may charge headfirst, without thinking, toward what appears to be an easy killing. Civilians are favorite targets,proving weak and vulnerable, feeling him with glee as they are cut down. This can and has been used to lure him into traps, which he has survived through sheer hate and strength.

Murderous Reputation: Varmon is not unheard of. Tales of his deeds have spread across the continent, from royal courts to peasant huts. All those who have opposed him have been killed, along with their friends, family, and acquaintances. When he approaches a city, fearful soldiers and civilians will try to flee as soon as they can, some may even turn traitor in a desperate plea for mercy that will not be granted.

Bio: Varmon's past is unknown - he is entirely clad in armor, and only allows slaves to attend to him, whom are immediately killed after their service. All that is known is his arrival, and unification of the Cults. Marching across the land, going cult to cult, he challenged each leader to a duel, one they always lost. Even those who surrendered were massacred, to ensure that there were no other ambitious souls in his horde. As the tales of his deeds spread, Cults began flocking to his banner, as well as despicable persons from across the realms. Marching up and down the Hellish Plains, slaughtering as he went, he grew more and more insatiable. He needed more, he needed more killings, he needed to sacrifice more. Villages and nomads were not enough - he wanted to lay siege to entire cities. He wanted to etch his name into the psyche of the world forever - he wanted the killings to throw a spiritual scream so fierce all those would be consumed by hatred.

Now, he leads the Cults of Korak, amassing them into a massive horde prepared to spring itself on a nearby faction. As his power grows, so too does the attention he gets from Kings and leaders.

[Acruan]

Nation Name: Acruan
Deity Name: Archene
Generation: First Generation
Domain of Power: Shadows and Silence
Persona: Quiet, calm, compassionate, but at times, even unfeeling. He is very reactive to how he is treated. Good to those who are good to him, bad to those who are bad to him, manipulative to those who try to use him, and so forth.
Mortal Appearance: He looks like a being made of shadows, generically humanoid, but the exact race he looks might range from human-like to elven to even merfolk or orcish. Simply a shadow version of a race, usually of the one he intends to talk or of those around him.
Gender: Male
Symbol of Power: A hollowed onyx circle.
Blessed Animal: The Black Dragon
Divine weapon: A spell called The Shadows Beyond the Horizon. It makes a sphere of shadows sealing an area or a target, no (mortal) light being capable of illuminating the inside and no sound escaping it. Endless on the inside while making what touches it from the outside 'go through'.

I would recommend this as the Good alliance, or, at least, the anti-evil alliance:

Ragnor
Folium
Harren
Mirayeset
Ashur
Arkahmis

Others personas are not clear enough.

You legitimately give me too much credit. In the rp I imported Mira from, she was originally going to actually break off and form her own faction separate from the good and evil ones. It didn't get far enough, though.
