In ancient times, the world of Tournia was filled with strife and conflict as all the creatures of land warred with one another over land and resources. These creatures united into eleven distinct factions, each attempting to conquer the world for only themselves. For millennia, the people knew only death and chaos.
Then, a group of mysterious beings of metal came from beyond the stars and silenced the endless war. They divided the world into twelve sections: one for each faction plus themselves. Then, in their part of the world, they built a giant colosseum they named The Tournament of Champions. This Tournament was opened to warriors of every faction who would compete for the prize. It was a friendly competition of sportsmanship and integrity, and for the next thousand years, Tournia knew peace.
But things aren't always as they seem.
Over time, The Tournament of Champions has become more aggressive, and relations between the factions have become more tense. There are even rumors about another war brewing on the horizon...
Welcome! This is a character-based RP set in a high fantasy, pseudo-medieval world that will probably, but not necessarily, involve a lot of combat. The focus of the story is on exploration, discovery, and intrigue as the players try to uncover a nefarious plot the throw the world back into chaos.
The Factions
While the factions have all fought one another for millennia, they all have their strengths and weaknesses, factions that they are particularly adept at fighting and those that they are particularly vulnerable to. This does not guarantee victory, but it does weigh things heavily in one side's favor.
Mortal Factions
These factions are made up of the normal beings on Tournia, the ones who are born, live, and die. They have physical needs, like eating and sleeping, and they require some form of shelter. Of course, undead a a bit of an exception to many of these, but they still fall into the mortal category.
Spirit Factions
The spirits are not normal beings; they are the physical manifestations of certain concepts or ideas. They are not born, and while they can be slain, they do not truly die, either. Their existence is more abstract and ephemeral.
Other Factions
These factions are ones that are truly unique with peculiar properties and characteristics. So different are they that they do not fit into either of the other categories.
