    History

    Wonks originally inhabited Atlas as crude, non-sentient frog-like beings that lived in a forest known as “Wonkawoods”-they were seen as mere animals and weren't of any interest. Over time the wonks evolved-becoming more sentient, having the ability to do more then just be a dumb animal. A group of Wonks migrated to Arcas, mainly living in swamp & jungle like biomes, similar to their homeland in the Wonkawoods. Some wonks came in contact with the native Orc population living in Arcas, being the first encounter the wonks would have to another civilization, and through the orc’s culture, wonks created a Tribal way of life-still echoing to this day. When thousands of years pasts, and the descendants made their way to Arcas-a small few of Wonks started to take great interest in these new peoples, these wonks became known as the Reformed Wonks, besides the Tribal wonks- reformed wonks are mainly in Descendant clothing & take interest in their cultures-it should be noted that a player could only rp as a Reformed wonk, reasoning behind a player not having the ability to play a Tribal wonk isn't in my memory, however from what iv’e heard I believe its due to players in the past doing meme rp with tribal wonk characters.

     

    Information

    There are 2 forms of wonks-that being ‘Toad Wonks’, and ‘Frog Wonks’. Frog Wonks are generally more skinny then their toad cousins, with it being not only that, however their height is taller-4’6” to 5’0”, along with their skin being smooth-they come in green to yellow, often hosting white stomachs & maw. Toad wonks are smaller in height then their frog counterparts-4’7” to 4’7”-they hold more weight on themselves, along with their skin being more bumpier & rough. Their skin tones could range from dark green to brown to even orange/red-a good way to describe them is, Short, Stubby-rough, and adorable.

    Wonks have a lifespan of 120 years-starting as a tadpole in a body of water-they hold a strange & unnerving slime covered in their bodies, having a normal descendant feel uncomfortable when feeling a wonks skin (though the main question is, why would anybody even touch a wonk haha...👀)-a wonk often enjoys holding time in water, as they're always connected to it, however as a wonk ages its skin becomes rougher & rougher-at the age of 50 a wonk’s skin begins to become leathery & dry-at 75 wonk has many cracks & flakes, dry & rough skin-at 100 a wonk cannot receive moisture & their skin is the most dry-they could only stay this way for 20 years, around age 120 they die-returning to the water as they make way for the next generation of wonks. Speaking of next generation-Wonks create randomly eggs-they carry them on their backs, about the size of small pebbles-over time they grow larger & larger-until eventually popping, making marks on a wonk’s back due to birthing-though it reverts back over a few years, the eggs are to be laid in a body of water, most of the time it being a communal pond/pool-if the wonk inhabits a community. The eggs hatch into small tadpoles, they begin their life in the pond for 5 years until eventually they sprout into Wonks. If the wonk is a Frog wonk then its offspring will be a frog wonk, and vice-versa for Toad wonks. Wonks don’t have genders, however wonks could give themselves genders to better organize themselves in a community. Wonk blood is different, being determined by their place of residence, if the wonk lives in a Cold climate its blood will be blue, for warm it could be red or orange-along with if the wonk is sick or cold its blood turns blue. Surprisingly Wonk blood is quite prized, along with other wonk product such as eggs, skin, slime, eyes, etc... Wonk tongues can extend 4x the average descendant-its quite strong aswell, however only as strong as a finger-nothing more, Wonk bodies are similar to Descendants-with it being the torso & legs, however the rest of the body is frog-like and quite bulbous when compared to the average descendant.

    I really wanna play a wonk- when I first joined wonk characters were all the rage, so I always wanted to play one.

    Introduction

    The Uddad -a Farfolk sub-culture & tribe of Qalasheen peoples, being mainly Desert Dwellers & Nomads, Craftsmen, Philosophers, Artists, Musicians, and great Warriors. Some live in Tent camps in the middle of a Desert, herding ram & sheep - travelling around on a mount & trading, others found joy in crafting complex art, with colours & sciences.The Uddad, commonly referred to as "Beni Uddad" in the Qalasheen tongue, are a tribe of semi-nomadic herdsmen that roam deep within the Korvassa desert, grazing their cattle and patrolling the edges of the Sultanate's borders.

    History

    Little is fully known of the origins of Uddad, however according to Oral tradition, the founder of the tribe was a man by the name of Abd Al Tandir-A Warrior who gathered his brothers to form a Tribe. According to ancient texts found within the Grand Library of Al-Faiz, it is mentioned that there was a man of the same name that existed around the time Uddad claim their tribe was founded (thus adding some weight to scholarly claims), Tandir was on a Dune with his white horse, Baobul-upon the other side of the dune, there was a fresh piece of land-with grass perfect for herding & setting up a camp-though protecting it was a Lion named Mihran, he rode into the sands with spear in hand, stabbing the beast before it could attack him-with it then he set a stick upon the ground, marking it the new homeplace for his Tribe. Uddad had been a nomadic herdsmen known for his breeding of exceptional Rams, they were shown to be larger, stronger and faster than the average of their species.The Herdsman's children would come spend most of their days herding and taking care of the livestock, and in time, they had come to take on some of the bear's qualities, namely their stubborn nature and unrelenting behavior.

    Current conditions

    After decades of roaming around aimlessly, the chief of the Uddad, Badir Yahya, led the tribe to the desert of Korvassa, seeking an audience with the ruler of the land, Sultan Al-Mujaddid, soon after this audience, the Uddad were formally granted permission to around around the desert, as vassals and and tributaries of the Sultan.

    Society

    Society

    9a485ca4efebc26a8321cb22aad43a81.jpg

    Uddad Society is quite Democratic, in each tribe there is a leading council of 9, known as the Jamelzih-the Jamelzih have one leader inwhich is the Chieftain/Chieftess of the tribe-who would sign off on the Council’s decision-they deal with Social, Economic, and Political issues amongst the tribe, along with crime & punishment-all who commit the crime of Banditry is sentenced to death. Uddad women have much freedoms in the tribe unlike other culture, they dont wear veils-they could pick their husbands, and they could even become the tribe chief. Uddad Chiefs rule as Monarchs, their known as “Amenkl”-most often then not their women, or sometimes men-to become a Chief one must belong to a family known as the “Aitzigh”, being the descendants of the very first Uddad-once born into the Family you are sent into one of the 4 main Uddad tribes, the Dorduga-The Urzil-The Langtazigh-or the Hassanir. The Dorduga being the main leading tribe of Uddad, ruled formly by Badir Yahya, until he was beheaded after he was caught in the middle of selling slaves. Now being ruled by his son, Aderfi Yahya. For Uddad marriage rituals, it often follows the same as those who follow Al’ Rashidun Faith, however-due to the Uddad’s past traditions, theres a twist. Once the marriage ceremony is completed, the Imam would carry out a Uddad ram from the herdsman-the couple must then put their hands on the ram for 1 saint minute, as they recite prayers, after that they kill the ram through a slit of the throat, however the Imam would measure the amount of blood droplets from the ram, putting the blood onto the couples hand-the couple must then mix the blood around their hands as they recite more prayers, then they will interlace their hands with the blood, this symbolizes how Uddad society is based upon the ram, the ram’s blood means how they are connected to eachother through a common thing-Even if the Uddad was a upper class Helenian Noble, or a Wealthy merchant-the ram is always a reminder to all Uddads around the realms, that they started off as Shepherds in Korvassa. Uddad men are allowed to have as many Wives & Concubines as they wish, most often then not the frist & primary wife would belong to the Uddad Culture, and her children will hold their father’s claims to whatever the family owns, however the Concubines & other wives would be Foriegn, such as Ruska & Lech Women (being the most popular concubines of Uddad men), or even elven women-reasoning behind this being unknown for now.

    Clothing

    Uddad clothing mainly consists of wear well suited for desert climates-made up of linen & wools (the wool made from the Uddad Ram of course) being wrapped around their heads, only showing some of their face-to protect them from the sands of Korvassa, one might say they've never seen a Uddad man without his Turban on.

    Men

    f94d02b5a26b98b81368ddfc51ab08e0.jpg

    Men’s clothing is often wrapped around the head to form a Turban, most often then not its in Black, Dark Blue, Orange, or Purple-this part of the Uddad’s wear is called the “Talgult”, a Uddad Turban. Another inside clothing, mainly for Uddads living in cities & such, being known as the “Llamba”, a long robe like clothing, most often being topped by a Fez-the fez is a red/black fur/linen cap worn on the head.

    Women

    f1109fd78269d32f7840198ca83a41da.jpg

    The clothing of a Uddad woman involves large amounts Jewelry, made from Qalesheen steel & golds, and a heavy interest in blue rocks, these blue rocks would be dug from the sands & smithed onto a set of Jewelry, the larger the rock the more power you have in Uddad culture, along with this the woman would wear dress with complex detailed geometric designs on the wool (made by Uddad sheep of course). Its common fashion to see Uddad women wear black tattoos around the upper body, reasoning behind this go back to the early Uddad Spiritual beliefs.

     

    Festivities & Cuisine

    The Uddad enjoy the same Festivities as the Qalesheen, however they have one unique holiday known as “Ram”, Ram is a day of feasting on the well known Uddad Ram, being some of the best Mutton in the World-the entire day & night each Uddad must only eat the mutton of Uddad Ram & their other productions, whilst dancing & colourful outfits are being worn. While the Uddad are well known for their Mutton, they do have another dish thats not as well known, yet still tasty-”Garmok”, Garmok is a type of hard cheesy bread made from flour, grain/wheat, and of course Uddad milk, being mixed together & put in the oven for 2 days, its quite crunchy in the outside, however in the inside its cheesy & milky, a savory taste that anyone could enjoy! Along with this, Uddad Milk, known as Blue Milk is quite popular amongst the Uddad, for some reason, all Uddad ram that have black wool produce a strange blue milk, when you drink it, it tasts like any other milk, however its very sour & creamy, if one were to put some water in a cup with blue milk, itll bubble up-making it even more creamy, however it becomes very sweet instead of sour. Most Uddad women enjoy a rare type of Tea known as “Ulik”, its made from 15% blue milk, 10% normal Uddad Ram milk, and the rest is grass taken from deserts, mixed together along with some water, heated up-surprisingly its quite nice, especially when warmed.

     

    Religion

    6ec0ee36ce3ce19a1ba079735ed898f0.jpg

    The Uddad religion is Al’ Rashidun, followed by most Qalesheen-however before then they followed a Pagan Pantheon. Not much is known of their old ways, however what is known is there was 3 gods, formulating 3 forms of life-with it then each tribe of Uddad (still being tribes to this day) Would follow, along with 5 other minor gods-there was 1 god leading all the other ones, with it then all Uddad folks worship him. During the time of Al Rashidun’s early foundation in the worlds, the Uddad converted willingly.

     

    Architecture

    3f236a3229a431951698b64d478a7a18.jpg

    Due to the Uddad mainly being desert dwelling nomads, it only seems fit for them to live in Tents, Uddad tents are often black, or white-with complex designs sown on the backings of the tent, being made from Uddad sheep wool, however-those Uddad who live in Cities or have access to large buildings, take great joy in Tilework. Uddads are probraly the greatest tile workers of the Human realm, they create complex geometric design, adorned with colourful hues of Blue & orange, yellow & red-etc… it is truly a wonder to look upon such detail into art. Most Uddad buildings feature a inside open area known as the “Riaad”, the Riaad would serve as the primary meeting place of the home, most often then not it’s floors have tilework, along with a good amount of flora, and in the very center is a Fountain. The Outside of Uddad housing is mainly made up of Red Mudbrick, having simple yet detailed designs carved into the hardened wall-some of these houses are fully whitewashed, red washed, or made completely blue.

    “To be utterly frank-I find the purpose of putting such effort into campaign being such a waste of my thought & time-as there should, and must be a extensive effort in - true, just-Governance & ruling, rather then  fighting for your title- though of course this democracy wills it. That being said – I, Pascual Topete y Cervera de Casanova, wish to host the title of Lord Mayor of Helena extending 1776-1780-reasoning being; For the entirety of my life I’ve been studying Philosophy & of the Political Arts-I keep passion for my State, ever since iv’e moved into Helena from my home city of Vittena, I have been such prideful of our great empire of Oren, the greatest & most prosperous Empire of the whole of Arcas, and may it be in rule for all of Entirety in the name of GOD himself-Iv’e never stopped to put hatred into our foolish enemy, Death to the Dogs! Glory to the Empire & our great Emperor! Even going as to far as forming my own small Militia-patrolling the roads in search of Hangmen & anyone offending the state-then fighting them-as I shall not rest until I see all of our enemies’s nations in defeat. Now-might I ask you, will you put your life in the hands of our state? If you answer yes, then you’ll vote for me, as glory & justice will be given to those who cherish Oren’s fruits-not only the Nobility, though the common people. If I am put into power I shall bring unto Helena, Reform, Action, Justice-And the correct form of Governance-I’ll set the current economic situation inwhich it will be a thing of the past –  for all who dwell in the city, it is not some wealthy snob of a Noble who would take power, no-it will be one of the peoples, casting your vote towards Me, Pascual De Casanova, will do so-the Lord Mayor of the People & Helena. My main component of campaign will be mainly focused on Speeches, speaking to the public rather then sitting in a room & writing to the peoples-the true thing to do, if you wish to attend one you’ll see me in the Square on a podium surrounded by my men whenever there’s a crowd, with it then you’ll see my ambitions directly.”


    Might I then Add, If you take interest in putting a vote in for me, show all who look upon you that you support Pascual De Casanova, by wearing this Armband.

    Why can you not accomplish the niche of this lair’s roleplay in an existing settlement or nation? (We expect a substantial answer for this, not just ‘I don’t like them’).

    The Settlement adopts the Rassid Culture, a Nomadic subrace of the Farfolk, they don’t have elaborate cities, nor will they need a entire charter to play them, sure they might have a small mudbrick/sandstone fort, though it will be nothing compared to humungous cities & palaces like others in arcas, then answering how come lairs are perfect for these types of roleplays, its a small nomadic group setting up camp somewhere in the desert.

    What does this lair add to the greater world around them?:

    Atleast to my knowledge, there hasn't been any Rassid groups on the map that had a actual outpost or settlement, creating more roleplay activities - hence adding onto the LOTC roleplay environment.

    Pierre was born in a Wonk tribe, his mother taught him how to cook at a young age, though once Pierre matured, he sought out more than just his village, so he traveled around the lands of Arcas, searching for spices & new foods. He lived in small human villages, during his time there, he found many human dishes-and he took inspiration from them-as he did this, Pierre became a excellent cook in human foods. Finally he looked for a place to settle, he took residence in Vuillermoz, as it was the closest to him from his original location, as of now he lives in the town, making food & cooking.

    A Kalamite woman in Traditional Clothing

    The  Kalamesh, The Peoples of the Book, they have no City, nor Nation, though they have The Book, and their God-Bahyweh, living in exile for hundreds of years, the Kalamites live all over the isles & lands, living on their ancient Traditions & culture, becoming warriors & traders, the Kalamites are all around the worlds. My Name is Alib Kerml Kemesh, a man whose heritage comes from a small Kalamite nomadic tribe in the deserts of Korvassa, and i shall recite my peoples history & culture throughout this book.

    The Kalamesh are a subrace of Farfolk-they have a complex history & culture, involving the quest for Knowledge, & become closer to their God, Bahyweh, their culture is heavily influenced by Bahyweh & his Prophets as they claim that they are Direct descent from his offspring. As of now their are no Nations or cities having Reshism (Kalamite Religion)  as their official religion, and there most likley will be none, as the Kalamites live in small Nomadic tribes or in City Enclaves, only time itself shall tell.

    HISTORY

    Enter Elysium during the 14th century, A man named Ja’qub Reshar sits in his home in a Oren city, he decides to take a walk across the outer skirts of the city walls, such then, a massive dust storm brings terror across the city, Ja’qub is blinded & he cant see, he sinks into the sand, waking up he finds himself in the middle of the shifting sands, he starts to Wander throughout the harsh desert searching for some, any, type of Shelter, though he found none, but he did see a Olive tree in a small grass patch in the desert, thirstily he took the olives & put them into his pocket & ate 2, suddenly the Olive tree’s branch fell for no apparent reason, Ja’qub investigated the branch & a group of text started to form onto the branch rapidly like flames, they said the Fundamental commandments of early Reshism, & that Ja’qub shall lead his issue & later offspring into glory-looking at this Ja’qub was amazed, it said that he must rename himself as “ja’besh” or he will stay in the desert for the rest of his life so he changed his name, finally he made his way back to the city while using the holy branch as a walking stick, he went back to his house to find his wife & children, they were greatly surprised to see him after around 2 months of absence, they gathered around they’re table as Ja’besh told them of recent events, they doubted him until he showed them his branch which inturn made him, and his family to follow these words & found a house in the name of them. Ja’qub called his neighbors & his family & they left the city, there were around 123 of them, these peoples were known as the Kalamites, they traveled throughout the desert searching for a good home for there peoples, until they hit a small oasis, Ja’qub had a feeling that this is the spot inwhich he shall found his kingdom, along with this he was writing a small book known as “The Book” or the “Temesh” featuring his talks with Bahyweh, and the commandments inwhich the Kalamites will follow for centuries on.

    Ja’qub in the Desert

    The Kalamites elected their first king, Ja’qub’s son, Noa, before this, the Kalamites lived in tents around their oasis for around 23 years until Ja’qub died of a scorpion bite. Noa, King of the Kalamites, founded a town-Jerdom-right next to the oasis on a rocky spot, it was made up of Mud Brick & only took around 7 years to make, it was a very small city aswell due to it being made up of just a small wall, a few houses & farms w/ a grainary, a tiny fort inwhich would house the Barracks & the king’s family, & the temple, which was in its early days, with each King passing, the temple would expand (please note this entire city was right next to the oasis). Noa founded the kingdom of Kalam after he finished the city, though this kingdom is rarely mentioned in the histories & they mostly kept to themselves as they were in the middle of a desert. After Noa came Bretim, after Bretim was Yervant, then Yamar, & Ja’besh II, after them came Temir, then Yamir, then Qualesh, then Uervanm, then finally Nahar. Aethera then came & the Kalamites migrated, they were then split due to a lack of resources & assimilated into the settlements founded around the world, as they did’nt have their temple, they converted their practice to the Temesh, whilst the other worlds came upon the Kalamites, they further split into several minorities & such until today, a large population of them live in Korvassa, & major cities in Arcas in small Enclaves.

    TRAITS

    3a28cca23952153de0d62be806431275.jpg

    .Most Kalamites have dark brown hair or black hair, along with this the average eyes are either brown, black, yellow, and rarley dark green, dark green eyes are mostly said to be a sign of being descended from Ja’qub as he had dark green eyes. Hair is mostly cut short or even being bald, though Woman’s hair is kept long (though not to long) For men body sized range from skinny to muscular, as i said before, it depends where they are in the world, for women body sizes are curved & their hair often uses forms of jewlery on it. It is a common misconception that Kalamites are usually great with money, which is half true, due to their intellect, they know how to handle money well, & since they live in small enclaves in cities, they need a good way of getting money while using their intellect, though they dont just choose jobs as bankers or accountants, alot find work in Music, arts, and some become mercinaries.

    RELIGION

    The Kalamites believe in Reshism, a Minor religion founded in Elysium by Ja’qub after he found a olive branch stating commandments sent by Bahyweh-they are Monotheistic & believe in 1 God named Bahyweh, there Culture & lifestyles are heavily influence by it. Originally they had a large temple inwhich the Kalamites would sacrifice a goat each friday to please Bahyweh, though this changed once the Ancestors migrated to different worlds inwhich creating the Kalamites to split & nolonger have a centralized society, which inturn made them resort to heavily putting their focus on the “Temesh”, the Temesh holds several stories & scriptures written throughout early Reshi era. The book holds the 6 Commandments aswell. There is a unique religious fashion followed by the Kalamites having scriptue being attached to the head in prayer.

    These Kalamite priest are wearing traditional clothing along with a “Lanet” which is a shawl worn as a head piece, & a Yemesh, a box worn/wrapped around the head holding scripture from the Temesh, or even the entire book.

     Kalamite Men’s Clothing is made up of 5 standard parts with designs unique to the Kalamite’s personal choice & choice of colour, this outfit is known as the Yaman

    Hajmesh- A Half Cloak, this is a cloak residing on the man’s Right shoulder, it consists of colourful & complex patterns, they must always wear it whenever in public

    Temet- A woolen cloth wraped around the man’s head & metal circular wear hanging from it-it is important that this area of the kit shall not have any designs woven onto it, this represents how Bahyweh is higher than the Kalamites, & the head (housing the mind, the Kalamites believe that the Mind is controlled by Bahyweh himself) should’nt have any design since its Bahyweh’s duty to fill the mind, not vanity

    Ishte- Tunic+Belt & metalic jewlery (If the Kalamite has enough money to buy said jewlery)

    Architecture

    Due to the Kalamites not having a centralized city, they do not have a unique archetecture type as they live in cities around Arcas, though during early days of Kalam, they mostly built simple flat roofed mudbrick structures, though some tiny Kalamite tribes (mostly unnoticed) live in the deserts of Korvassa, their archetecture style is similar to their ancient ancestors style as of flat roofs, mudbrick & a small courtyard w/ a short wall.
