I think it would be best to just give a description of the kingdom and not everything about it.  If we want to just have the world map and nothing else, everything will have to be deleted. O_o   Might as well have a Roleplaying Kingdoms topic(or w/e) XD  As for the kingdoms skills.  We could have

Infantry -
Cavalry -
Ranged -
Siege -
Navy -

and have only so many points(10-11?) you are allowed to use on them.  The best in an area would be 4(?)  Example
TASIDIAN
Infantry - **
Cavalry - *
Ranged - ***
Siege - *
Navy - ****

Or something like that...just so every kingdom won't be like "The best infantry in the world, the best cavalry in the world" ect

Here is where you can give a description of your Roleplaying Kingdoms. Your Kingdom only has twelve points to distribute amongst these five divisions, so use them well. Four is the maximum. I'll use this as an example:

Infantry - **
Cavalry - ****
Ranged - **
Siege - *
Navy - ***

You also have twelve points to distribute amongst these statistics:

Economy - ****
Military - ***
Culture - **
Science - ***

Those will explain your Empire's wealth and power.

Then you can explain your Kingdom a bit:


23:22:23 Dec 12th 08 - Lord Cedric Deallus:

Gah Septim >< I was making a topic for this O_o  I was making it 13 points as what you had to work with.  4 *'s is the max in each area.  Could you give a description about what each category stands for? (Culture, Science, ect)

* = Poor
** = Average
*** = Above Average
**** = Excellent
(My Example)
Infantry - **
Cavalry - *
Ranged - ***
Siege - *
Navy - ****
Magic - **

[[OOC: We could have thirteen if you'd like...and those four are just the general representation of how advanced your Empire is at the time. With a high science, they have better weaponry. With a high economy, they have more gold and power. With a high culture, the cities are beautified and glorious. With a high military, your military is larger. And why did you have to add MAGIC!? *rubs eyes*. I don't want anybody to have an army of master mages, so lets just say that each army has two stars in their magical area.]]

Cidel was founded 1000 years ago in the foothills of the Cidel Mountains by Validus Cidellus, a former General of Serillia. Over time, Cidel grew, and after three hundred years, it occupied all of what had once been the Serillian Empire. Now, after seven hundred years, it is a superpower. It has what may be the world's best cavalry and a fine navy, though it is moderate in everything else. It is supported by the Harkness Lode within the Cidel Mountains, an enormous supply of gold, silver, iron, and coal that seems endless. The Cidellus name ended five hundred years ago when the last of the Cidellus line, Kyraria Cidellus, married Tiber Septim. Tiber Septim proved to be an excellent Emperor, and a fine husband. Now, five hundred years later, Validus Septim, son of Waldorfius III, is the Emperor of Cidel.

Heh, I was working on one, too, but stopped because I guessed someone else would get there first.  I can't quite describe my kingdom using this setup, though, because it's really a three-in-one deal...but, I'll try anyway. 

Hm, what if I describe all three major cities separately?


23:34:23 Dec 12th 08 - Lord Cedric Deallus:

Make it a one-in-one deal and it may work :)   Magic is used in a lot of RPs in case you didn't know :p   Havin 4 star magic does not mean you can destroy an entire army of nonmages...even if the person has 1 star for magic.  It is just for RP purposes.

[[OOC: The Dwarves of this region were once the richest of the dwarves, but they were killed off by the orcs of the region. The orcs were then killed by the Serillians (they rose up in a slave revolt and killed their orc masters). The orcs and the dwarves that once called Cidel home are now dead.]]

Tasidian was founded upon the edge of a large body of water, now called the Sapphire Sea, by Charley Deallus I.  The city grew quite quickly and was a haven for many against kingdoms of barbarians and warlords.  Charley Deallus II expanded the country greatly during his reign, but he was killed by a nazgul lord after overextending his power.  Ernest Deallus was known as Ernest The Orange because of his bright orange eyes.  He watched a city burnt to the ground within the first days of his life, and his father Charley II killed along with the nazgul lord.  Ernest never made it back to Tasidian because his mother, Yevanna, died of a sudden illness. 

Ernest lived in several small towns as a thief and bandit until he was recruited by a man named Gaius Tarimbar.  The two men helped destroy two kingdoms that had rebelled from the land that Tasidian had conquered.  Ernest unfortunately was thought to have died and his son, Charley Deallus III, took his place.  He was found to be the king of Tasidian and took his place there when he turned 18.  Several years after ruling, Ernest returned alive after being healed by elves.  Ernest became king and Charley went off on numerous adventures that eventually revealed Dark Lord Zurmon to him.

Zurmon cursed Charley with an eternal life of misery and banished him back to the lands of Tasidian.  Ernest Deallus was assassinated shortly afterwards and Tasidian was destroyed by several corrupted countries under the power of Zurmon.  Charley, his brothers Thomas, Edward, and Ernest II Deallus were all sent into exile for six years with most of the people of Tasidian.   Hunter Deallus, the youngest of the family, rescued the brothers and they escaped their imprisonment.  They revolted against Zurmon and destroyed the men he left in charge. 

Tasidian was rebuilt, but was never as beautiful as it once was.  Over one million people were killed in the revolution, which left the military weakened.  Tasidian slowly regained its strength, but Charley left his brother Thomas as king.  Charley went north and established The Order of Tasidian, which eventually led to the death of Dark Lord Zurmon.  Charley unfortunately died as well and was remembered as the greatest king that Tasidian had.  Thomas Deallus had two sons, Jonathan and Cedric, whom carried on the Deallus legacy.  Cedric was the more adventurous of the two and headed the Order of Tasidian.

Tasidian prides itself on having excellent trading with other kingdoms due to its navy.  The military is smaller because Tasidian is a peaceful country, but has skilled archers.  Beautiful cities are common in the country, and Tasidian is being rebuilt so that it is once again back to its former beauty.  Tribes of dwarves and elves live nearby in the numerous forests and mountains.  The elves are especially close to the people of Tasidian, and there is a special group of elves that have been guardians of the Deallus family for many years.

[[How is that? A tad long, but I cannot help myself at times]]

[[Ok, if I do this with respect to the actual kingdom itself and the armies employed by the kingdom, I can make it work...  But in actual RPs, the power and culture of the different clans will come into play, of course...]]

This kingdom is not really a kingdom, but more of a confederation of clans, centering around three major cities - Rilienor, Barathor, and Aeglironior.  In Rilienor resides the strongest of the clans, the one which all the others obey, as well as a dozen lesser clans (ranging in power, of course) that add to its strength.  Rilienor is a capital of learning, and the clan that holds power does so with knowledge. 

Barathor has long been inhabited by people who mingle with the desert tribes, and so its people tend to be darker and are looked down upon by the Rilienorians.  Its people are warriors, since their alliances with certain desert tribes causes them to often have to participate in desert disputes, and constitute an above average cavalry force, including camelry.  The chief Barathorian clan is supported by only three lesser clans, with the majority of its power coming from its relationships with the tribes of the desert.

The Aeglironiorians are as far removed in culture from the Rilienorians as are the Barathorians.  They constitute about two dozen clans that KNOW the highlands, and the mountains are a part of their hearts.  They are fond of music and dancing, and yet are fierce warriors in their own right, as part of the toughness required to live in the sometimes unbearably frigid mountains.  They occasionally war one another, as well, but the city of Aeglironior is a safe haven, and is never included in their struggles.  The Aeglironiorian Bowmen are incredible (five-star bowmen for RP's, in fact, but not incorporated into the armies of the kingdom); an Aeglironiorian aspiring to be an archer is not considered a "Bowman" until he can shoot...well, that will have to be revealed in an actual story.  Oh, and the Aeglironiorians have little to do with the mines, or the lumbermills - the Rilienorians oversee both.  Indeed, the Aeglironiorians are not that powerful, and have few sources of income, although they do have a rich culture.  They spend much of their time fighting the orcs in the mountains....

There are said to be elves in the northern forests of the kingdoms, but if so, the Aeglironiorians keep their presence secret from the rest of the kingdom.

We can only have up to two stars in magic, so put those two stars somewhere else. Sorry Hirgon.


10:25:46 Dec 13th 08 - Mr. Hirgon:

[[Ugh, missed that part.  Beg your pardon.  Also switched up siege and navy, seeing as the focus in the ruling kingdom is more on trade than on warfare.  That rule might be a problem, though, because maximizing magic is so simple now, and doesn't involve giving up as much...So far all three kingdoms listed have max magic.]]

Bronimina is a huge northern landmass (see world map when it is finished) and a large portion of it belongs to the Broniminan Empire. The Broniminan Empire is an ancient kingdom ruled over by the Emperor of Bronimina, who is usually chosen by succession. The Broniminan religion (the Old Beliefs) is left mostly unworshipped as Bronimina's larger empire expands across a huge area, merging with many different cultures outside of it's official natural boundaries. This has led to a collapse and overhaul of Bronimina's original culture.

Bronimina does not trade in gold, it is only considered a trinket within it's boundaries due to the fact it is so rare it was not discovered until outside traders brought it in. They use silver instead as a main currency. All their coins are stamped with the imperial logo; a hand holding a globe.

The miners and smiths have all kinds of rare metals in the mountain range and the researchers and alchemists are constantly coming up with ways to make life better for everyone. They developed the 'Ranger', a metal crossbow capable of firing a bolt a very long way.

The dawrves have several small cave-towns in the mountains, and strange beasts live out on the ice, but mostly the land is left for the humans.

Farathor is a civilization that has except for on some historic occasions rarely come into contact with other kingdoms. It’s location atop and underneath the heavily forested Great Olkait Mountains has ensured that it’s presence has gone virtually unnoticed through the ages.

Never having resided near the oceans or on plains for too long, the Farathorians have a great dislike of very large water bodies and are not fond either of siege machines, preferring their legendary spy and assassin network to do the job of siege engines for them.

The location of the Farathorians in the mysterious Great Olkait Mountains and their brilliant minds has ensured that breathtaking discoveries in all fields take place at staggering rates. The mountain, forests and their few rivers along with vast unexplored plateaus brimming with vegetation and wildlife has ensured that their economy and science is one of the largest and best in the world. The military of the Farathorians has rarely been seen by anyone, but is reputed to be the finest killing machine in the world.

The Andorian Empire occupies the six islands of The Silver Archipelago. The biggest of the islands is Andoria. On this island was formed The Empire as a federation of dwarven, elven and human tribes. Because of the long life of the elves and dwarves, the crown was given to the humans and the first emperor was Kalin Valen I. He built the City of Kharos to be the capital of Andoria, and named the city after the God of Light - Khorol.
Over time, The Empire streched over the entire Archipelago, using diplomatic, economic and military ways.

Nowadays, The Andorian Empire field one of the worlds best cavalry and maintains the worlds largest and best navy. Due to it's location it was never conquered nor threatened.

It's wealth comes from the rich ore of it's mountains: iron, coal, gold and silver, but also from gems amd diamonds found in the mines. Also, The Empire holds a large comercial fleet and Kharos is one of the largest comercial ports in the world.

After the death of Emperor Kholud Valen X, who had no heirs, the power was given to Constable Delran De Silveur, commander of the Imperial Armed Forces. He helds the power as ruler and protector of the Empire, but never wears the crown, as he is waiting for an heir to show up.

*A large rainforest, the Sarmen is inhabited by a large number of creatures. Among them, the Wood Elves take care of the forest and live in harmony with it. Although there are many different types of Elves, they are all united under one banner. These Elves have made their homes in the safety of the tree canopy, and have built elaborate structures here that marvel outsiders.

Due to living in forests horses, or indeed any mount, are impractible. However, the Elves have had to adapt to this and become excellent archers and swordsmen. Large siege weapons, the type of which have been seen in many a war, also can not be used in this terrain.

Elves have dabbled in Magic for years, and the Wood Elves of Sarmen keep close to this tradition by learning healing and defensive forms of magic, mostly water based.

Due to being far from the sea, the people of Sarmen rarely bother with a navy. However, the Saremenians on the outskirts of the forest do trade the rare and exotic goods for things not found in the forest such as silver or rare gems.

The Sarmenian Military believes in using deception to fight any invaders and build elaborate traps to capture them and hold or maim their foes. They have spent many a year perfecting their weapon making skills, and take proud in having sturdy bows and sharpl, biting blades.*

Tasidian was rebuilt, but was never as beautiful as it once was.  Over one million people were killed in the revolution, which left the military weakened.  Tasidian slowly regained its strength, but Charley left his brother Thomas as king.  Charley went north and established The Order of Tasidian, which eventually led to the death of Dark Lord Zurmon.  Charley unfortunately died as well and was remembered as the greatest king that Tasidian had.  Thomas Deallus had two sons, Jonathan and Cedric, whom carried on the Deallus legacy.  Cedric was the more adventurous of the two and headed the Order of Tasidian.

Tasidian prides itself on having excellent trading with other kingdoms due to its navy.  The military is smaller because Tasidian is a peaceful country, but has skilled archers.  Beautiful cities are common in the country, and Tasidian is being rebuilt so that it is once again back to its former beauty.  Tribes of dwarves and elves live nearby in the numerous forests and mountains.  The elves are especially close to the people of Tasidian, and there is a special group of elves that have been guardians of the Deallus family for many years.

Bronimina is a huge northern landmass (see world map when it is finished) and a large portion of it belongs to the Broniminan Empire. The Broniminan Empire is an ancient kingdom ruled over by the Emperor of Bronimina, who is usually chosen by succession. The Broniminan religion (the Old Beliefs) is left mostly unworshipped as Bronimina's larger empire expands across a huge area, merging with many different cultures outside of it's official natural boundaries. This has led to a collapse and overhaul of Bronimina's original culture.

Bronimina does not trade in gold, it is only considered a trinket within it's boundaries due to the fact it is so rare it was not discovered until outside traders brought it in. They use silver instead as a main currency. All their coins are stamped with the imperial logo; a hand holding a globe.

The miners and smiths have all kinds of rare metals in the mountain range and the researchers and alchemists are constantly coming up with ways to make life better for everyone. They developed the 'Ranger', a metal crossbow capable of firing a bolt a very long way.

The dawrves have several small cave-towns in the mountains, and strange beasts live out on the ice, but mostly the land is left for the humans.

Farathor is a civilization that has except for on some historic occasions rarely come into contact with other kingdoms. It’s location atop and underneath the heavily forested Great Olkait Mountains has ensured that it’s presence has gone virtually unnoticed through the ages.

Never having resided near the oceans or on plains for too long, the Farathorians have a great dislike of very large water bodies and are not fond either of siege machines, preferring their legendary spy and assassin network to do the job of siege engines for them.

The location of the Farathorians in the mysterious Great Olkait Mountains and their brilliant minds has ensured that breathtaking discoveries in all fields take place at staggering rates. The mountain, forests and their few rivers along with vast unexplored plateaus brimming with vegetation and wildlife has ensured that their economy and science is one of the largest and best in the world. The military of the Farathorians has rarely been seen by anyone, but is reputed to be the finest killing machine in the world.

The Andorian Empire occupies the six islands of The Silver Archipelago. The biggest of the islands is Andoria. On this island was formed The Empire as a federation of dwarven, elven and human tribes. Because of the long life of the elves and dwarves, the crown was given to the humans and the first emperor was Kalin Valen I. He built the City of Kharos to be the capital of Andoria, and named the city after the God of Light - Khorol.
Over time, The Empire streched over the entire Archipelago, using diplomatic, economic and military ways.

Nowadays, The Andorian Empire field one of the worlds best cavalry and maintains the worlds largest and best navy. Due to it's location it was never conquered nor threatened.

It's wealth comes from the rich ore of it's mountains: iron, coal, gold and silver, but also from gems amd diamonds found in the mines. Also, The Empire holds a large comercial fleet and Kharos is one of the largest comercial ports in the world.

After the death of Emperor Kholud Valen X, who had no heirs, the power was given to Constable Delran De Silveur, commander of the Imperial Armed Forces. He helds the power as ruler and protector of the Empire, but never wears the crown, as he is waiting for an heir to show up.

*A large rainforest, the Sarmen is inhabited by a large number of creatures. Among them, the Wood Elves take care of the forest and live in harmony with it. Although there are many different types of Elves, they are all united under one banner. These Elves have made their homes in the safety of the tree canopy, and have built elaborate structures here that marvel outsiders.

Due to living in forests horses, or indeed any mount, are impractible. However, the Elves have had to adapt to this and become excellent archers and swordsmen. Large siege weapons, the type of which have been seen in many a war, also can not be used in this terrain.

Elves have dabbled in Magic for years, and the Wood Elves of Sarmen keep close to this tradition by learning healing and defensive forms of magic, mostly water based.

Due to being far from the sea, the people of Sarmen rarely bother with a navy. However, the Saremenians on the outskirts of the forest do trade the rare and exotic goods for things not found in the forest such as silver or rare gems.

The Sarmenian Military believes in using deception to fight any invaders and build elaborate traps to capture them and hold or maim their foes. They have spent many a year perfecting their weapon making skills, and take proud in having sturdy bows and sharpl, biting blades.*

Cidel was founded 1000 years ago in the foothills of the Cidel Mountains by Validus Cidellus, a former General of Serillia. Over time, Cidel grew, and after three hundred years, it occupied all of what had once been the Serillian Empire. Now, after seven hundred years, it is a superpower. It has what may be the world's best cavalry and a fine navy, though it is moderate in everything else. Their siege weaponry is lacking, but they never used it in the first place. They usually infiltrate enemy ranks and use their spies to open the gates. Cidel's massive economy and their great military is supported by the Harkness Lode within the Cidel Mountains, an enormous supply of gold, silver, iron, and coal that seems endless and is rumored to have once been used by the dwarves of the region before being driven to extinction by the orcs. The orcs were then exterminated by the Serillian humans. The Cidellus name ended five hundred years ago when the last of the Cidellus line, Kyraria Cidellus, married Tiber Septim. Tiber Septim proved to be an excellent Emperor, and a fine husband. Now, five hundred years later, Validus Septim, son of Waldorfius III, is the Emperor of Cidel.

Tasidian was founded upon the edge of a large body of water, now called the Sapphire Sea, by Charley Deallus I.  The city grew quite quickly and was a haven for many against kingdoms of barbarians and warlords.  Charley Deallus II expanded the country greatly during his reign, but he was killed by a nazgul lord after overextending his power.  Ernest Deallus was known as Ernest The Orange because of his bright orange eyes.  He watched a city burnt to the ground within the first days of his life, and his father Charley II killed along with the nazgul lord.  Ernest never made it back to Tasidian because his mother, Yevanna, died of a sudden illness. 

Ernest lived in several small towns as a thief and bandit until he was recruited by a man named Gaius Tarimbar.  The two men helped destroy two kingdoms that had rebelled from the land that Tasidian had conquered.  Ernest unfortunately was thought to have died and his son, Charley Deallus III, took his place.  He was found to be the king of Tasidian and took his place there when he turned 18.  Several years after ruling, Ernest returned alive after being healed by elves.  Ernest became king and Charley went off on numerous adventures that eventually revealed Dark Lord Zurmon to him.

This kingdom is not really a kingdom, but more of a confederation of clans, centering around three major cities - Rilienor, Barathor, and Aeglironior.  In Rilienor resides the strongest of the clans, the one which all the others obey, as well as a dozen lesser clans (ranging in power, of course) that add to its strength.  Rilienor is a capital of learning, and the clan that holds power does so with knowledge. 

Barathor has long been inhabited by people who mingle with the desert tribes, and so its people tend to be darker and are looked down upon by the Rilienorians.  Its people are warriors, since their alliances with certain desert tribes causes them to often have to participate in desert disputes, and constitute an above average cavalry force, including camelry.  The chief Barathorian clan is supported by only three lesser clans, with the majority of its power coming from its relationships with the tribes of the desert.

The Aeglironiorians are as far removed in culture from the Rilienorians as are the Barathorians.  They constitute about two dozen clans that KNOW the highlands, and the mountains are a part of their hearts.  They are fond of music and dancing, and yet are fierce warriors in their own right, as part of the toughness required to live in the sometimes unbearably frigid mountains.  They occasionally war one another, as well, but the city of Aeglironior is a safe haven, and is never included in their struggles.  The Aeglironiorian Bowmen are incredible (five-star bowmen for RP's, in fact, but not incorporated into the armies of the kingdom); an Aeglironiorian aspiring to be an archer is not considered a "Bowman" until he can shoot...well, that will have to be revealed in an actual story.  Oh, and the Aeglironiorians have little to do with the mines, or the lumbermills - the Rilienorians oversee both.  Indeed, the Aeglironiorians are not that powerful, and have few sources of income, although they do have a rich culture.  They spend much of their time fighting the orcs in the mountains....

There are said to be elves in the northern forests of the kingdoms, but if so, the Aeglironiorians keep their presence secret from the rest of the kingdom.

Formed after centuries of struggle and fighting against their main enemy, the Devarians, the Reveritt Empire establishes a foothold on the greatest desert of the land.  Zetanism, the main religion, is practiced one hour everyday.  Living in great cities made of imported marbles and stone, the people live as well as the rich in this empire.  Everyone is treated equally, and all people that come into the Reveritt Empire are treated with utmost respect.
