The Kingdom of Tych (World Builder/Fantasy/Open)

I was told it was okay for this post that I could powerplay a bit. Though, I'm honestly not used to that sort of thing, so for that reason I tried to keep the characters Mitzhla was fighting alive in case they are still wanted for game play reasons. If anyone things that I was too dictatorial in my actions, please tell me.

Sanctioned it, and that's brilliant. Tried giving each of you some IC-time, and am sure Cedric and Alb would ace in other encounters

Whew that was intense, worth waking up early for

Guess we're finally on safe lands!

[New Finnish Republic]

So by now, I think it's safe to say we should begin to focus on actual large scale combat between the Loyalists (William) and Revolutionaries (Oliver). If anyone has a House, I'd prefer they begin to get involved. I can have some Ana-Ga action going on as well, although they'll mainly be a cloak and dagger group rather than a fighting force.

Oh, and don't worry. I'm still planning on our group involving ourselves with the war. In fact, I'd say we'll be on the front lines of the major battle(s).

Agreed. Surely there will be fighting among the espionage groups as well, the Ana-Ga will have a large part to play, especially the Loyalists supporting Sharp. Would the Loyalists be able/willing to Coordinate with the Cotalli? I'm not too sure of the diplomacy between them.

"An enemy of my enemy is my friend"

And really, I wouldn't see that most agents would be against the Cotalli. In fact, I'd say it's safe to say even a few Cotalli could be in the ranks of the Ana-Ga as well, just maybe not as prevalent.

That works. I specifically avoided adding Cotalli into the Night Blades due to the need of a strong opposition for the faction.

@ Straus. Would you like to prepare a siege of Moruzzo, or would you want me to take over the current Antagonists of this era? (Call it the Year of the Usurper or sth) Meaning I'll basically control the movements of the Revolutionaries including the mercenary forces. Might add a couple of dark forces to the background as well. Will still keep the RP a Tychian one, unless this Era ends and we wanna throw in some expansion packs. Non-DLC xD

[New Finnish Republic]

Before I post about entering the city, is anyone else wanting to post dialogue or anything else that takes place on the ship? I'll be posting in a couple hours.

Yo Finn, I'm assuming you'll be RP-ing the majority of Loyalist Ana-Ga. feel free to TG me of the Chronicles section seem off or too imbalanced either way. If power ratings are to be discussed, drop me a TG too

That would be nice lol. I am finding myself busier and busier each day, I want to move plot along but I can't sit down and make a good post. It's so exhausting and I want the rp to keep going ahhhh

Don't worry you should take pride in starting this proj. RP can only be continued with everyone here and more, and I hope I didn't exhaust anyone with the previous Arc (Ship Battle)

Hmm...would you like to be put in charge of Oliver's forces untill I am finally able to come back and take my rightful place as op? I'm so busy and I feel I'm stalling things that siege should have happen a while back

Time should be accommodated to the IC. Now is the perfect time for the siege.

Basically I'll scale the Revs and everything according to a timezone which fits most. I spent 2-3 days staging the Ship Battle. Events can be sped up a little now that we're moving to a strategic stage, but when the Party comes into prominence, they take precedence.

True but I am in the middle of class and my teacher is yelling at me.

My browser derped -.- so this is a rough post on what i originally planned.

Current Revolutionary Forces -

50k mercenaries under La-Fu, the Ocini River Pass stands between Moruzzo and the Final Staging Point (Village Sanjo in the IC). ETA Noon, 5th Day, 24 hours after Party lands in Cotalli Lands.

25k retinues under No Named Leader, retconned to take a long route to Moruzzo. ETA 3 days.

15k retinues(?) under No Named Leader, Capital Defence Force.

Source - IC Page 7

Any objections to these numbers? I got my own way of balancing things as the IC proceeds too, so hope no one worries too much

I'd say so. For Loyalists, I think Sharp has roughly 15,000 men coming to Moruzzo with an additional 21,000 back at his lands.

I can't say for Mitzhla, but it's safe to assume she'll have a force consisting of several thousand warriors.

As for the Ana-Ga, I say that a force of roughly 600 agents remain.

And I have plans to fully use them

You having funny war games down south?
Once I resolved my little situation up there in the north I`ll also come down to stirr up some trouble.

Could take some time though as I seem to always need a lot of time to post something and I`m kind of relying on Raktio to resolve all this. Still unsure if I should kill Crego but I really think I have to or else he`ll alarm everyone down south.

[Kanilion]

Going into DM mode actually gives me a plan for them undead... Feels like the first expansion pack is on its way muahahaha

Basically I'm gonna be most player's antagonist. Really, anything for a good story.

[Drakorvanyia]

City application:
Name of city: Xasichan
Does it have walls? If so what kind: No, but there is a natural cliffside at its north.
Size: Decently sized, it's small enough to be threatened to be swallowed up by the larger Tenakchitli close by.
Avg population: 5,000
Main export: Fish, stone, and flowered seaweed.
Any docks?: Yes, three facing the west.
Does it have a city hall?: Yes, a large circular building made of stone, with a hole in the roof to accommodate for ritual fires.
Guards: 1,000

whats the education like?: Rather poor, though all citizens save for children can read, write, and do basic maths. Most education is done at home by parents or family members. Some tutors do exist.

History of the city and how it was founded: Originally, Xasichan was a village of merely one hundred deniziens, a settlement of Cotalli once the capital of Tenakchitli was established, in order to use the nearby stone as a resource for building great monuments and buildings. After the Cotalli subjugation by the Tych family, the village turned from a quarry town to a bustling port. The Tych family used Xasichan as a way to acquire exotic Cotalli goods, such as the flowering weeds that grew at the coasts. Over time, it grew, and became the Xasichan of today.

Surrounding terrain: Mostly desert to the east and south. To the north there is a cliffside which has been mined over the years to extract stone. It has, as a result, become a natural barrier for the town's defense. To the west, there is sea, which is mostly choked by seaweed the closer one comes to shore.

Any places of worship?: There is a shrine to the Cotalli water goddes Nahacuetz, just past the docks.

Anything extra you want to add: A small statue of a dead man with a hole in his chest lays just before the exit to the docks. Travellers wanting to enter the bowels of the city are required to go there and offer their blood, then try to light a fire in the chest cavity. If the cavity does not light, then the traveller is barred from entering. If it does, they are welcomed as a friend.

City application:
Name of city: Tenakchitli
Does it have walls? If so what kind: No, but there is a ring of nine forts surrounding the city.
Size: Very large. Large stone bridges are the only ways in and out of the city.
Avg population: 20,000
Main export: Slaves, mercenaries.
Any docks?: No.
Does it have a city hall?: Yes, a large palace serves as the residency of the royal family, as well as a meeting place for generals and city officials. The palace is located on a hill in the center of the city.
Guards: 8,000

whats the education like?: Very well. Most citizenry is taught history, basic to advanced mathematics, reading, and writing. High emphasis is put on music and battle strategy especially. All citizens, male or female, is taught the basics of combat.

History of the city and how it was founded: Tenakchitli was originally a lonely island, until a Nahual tribe called the Xocht found it, and made a village there. There was inactivity for around one hundred years until another tribe known as the Cotalli attacked the Xocht in what is known as the War of the Island. The Cotalli, after five years of fighting, managed to take the city and expand it, creating the wonder Tenakchitli is today. After many hundreds of years, which included the defeat of the Cotalli at the hands of the forces of Tych, Tenakchitli has become a thriving center of music and the arts and home to one of the grandest military academies in Tych.

Surrounding terrain: The city itself is located on a large island located within an inland lake that is fed by a river leading out to sea. The lake that surrounds Tenakchitli is two hundred feet from the shore of the island to the mainland, with its surface littered by floating platforms on which the citizenry grows crops when they can not reach the more fertile soil on the lake shore. Outside of the small fertile area produced by the lake is only desert and some mountains. An hour away by foot is the city of Xasichan.

Any places of worship?: Yes, there are three large pyramids, one for each of the Cotalli gods. Sacrifices are performed at the temples annually.

Anything extra you want to add: Even with a lack of walls, Tenakchitli is prized as a difficult city to capture, given that its location means that only four bridges grant access to the entire city. Boats are hard to produce during siege, and have thus far, been forced to be dragged across the desert in order to efficiently blockade the city by navy. The lake itself is home to floating farms, which makes Tenakchitli a tad difficult to starve out, but not impossibly so.

Well accepted. If I remember there is a cult in Cotalli lands right?

There is, though I don't know where whoever plays them went.
