The Ghazians: Every single individual differs in appearance, sometimes radically, from each other. They bear uncanny resemblance to the wildlife of Ghazi, but are more humanoid in nature, appearance and intelligence. This species makes up both the Stalwarts and Swampers.
The Stalwarts: The most diverse faction on Ghazi. They seek only to survive and establish a stable, peaceful society. Their field agents include Scholars, Scouts, Spies, and soldiers. Scholar squads go to Ancient ruins to gather artifacts of value, either in information or usefulness. Scouts scout out new ruins for exploration and help map the continent. They are also known as explorers due to their use in exploring Ancient ruins before Scholars can move in. Spies do just what their name means. They gather intelligence on enemy movement. More experienced ones will actually take positions in the ranks of the enemy for better intelligence gathering. And soldiers are the basic military force of the Stalwarts. They go and fight the enemy whenever directed to by the General. They also have training in being medics and engineers.
The ancients: A long extinct species, they have left ruins all across the continent. The ruined city of Hingeton contains the only known representation of an Ancient; a massive statue of one sitting in a chair. Several Scholars have deciphered some of the visible writing on it and found the statue is known as Lincoln.
Swampers: Comprised of mostly reptilian Ghazians, Swampers are known for their ability to survive on very little. They’ll salvage anything they can find to use for survival, including equipment from Stalwarts they’ve killed. Their homeland is a swampy region, hence where they get their name from. Their homeland is riddled with ruined Ancient watercraft, which they have mostly stripped for supplies. The remaining hulls are used for shelter. The conflict between them and the Stalwarts started when a small battle broke out over salvage in an Ancient city, resulting in three Scholar deaths. Now the two groups are at war, neither side willing to negotiate. They only employ two roles in the field. Scavengers and scouts. They don’t have the resources anymore for big battles, and so rely on guerilla warfare.
Where you come in: You are a Stalwart. But what is it exactly that you do? Use the template to create a character.
Spoiler! :
I hope to hear from any interested persons. And hopefully the people who join will be able to post regularly so this does not die out. I will direct the story from mission briefings and interaction of some of my own characters. And yes, I have a plot. I've been working on it for quite a while. All it needs now is you. So let the story begin.
