A lone elfess stood alone in a small room in the winery outside Celia'nor. Removing her silk gloves, her figure moved to a small mirror that she had placed on a small stand filled with jewels and make up. Looking into the mirror she could see the scars on her ears, wrapping around below the tips of her elven ears. Sticking her tongue out she could see the scar there too, a circular one closer to the back of her throat. These were scars of the limbs she had lost, ones she had thought she could never get back. But Sarrion had chosen to help her. Thanks to him, she could hear again, she could speak again.

Sarrion...one of her closest friends and one of the last friends that remained of her past, her childhood. Most had long died. Sarrion was there to talk to Ariselle when she needed, to share conversations about the world and the many curiosities that came with it. She could only hope she provided the same support he provided her.

As all the memories flashed in her mind, including her visit to Lurin where he had wished her a peaceful life and her to him, she turned to the wall, tears streaming down her face like a dam finally exploding. She slammed her fist into the wall with a screech, her legs giving out as she crumbled up into a mess of a figure, sobbing.

"Goodbye, my friend. I hope you find peace...maybe one day, I will see you again. In another world, another life. One day."

Ariselle had come to visit a small town nearby the ocean for a visit. Exiting the clinic, she glanced up to the sky as it seemed to split open. Her eyes widened and her face paled slightly. The only words that she could muster was "Oh, no..."

Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature:

          Sprites are winged humanoid creatures that originated from the Eternal Forest. Their body is a vessel for Flora Echoes, a unique form of spirits from the Eternal Forest. The Eternal Forest lies within the Fae Realm and it’s the paradise of the sprites. At the time of a full moon, Fae Rings which act as passageways between the mortal realm and the Fae Realm, open. Should a sprite enter the Fae Ring at the time of the full moon, they are caught and slip into the realm of the Descendants, whether they intended to or not. Sprites who were already developed leave behind corpses, appearing as if they had died while their spirit moves to the mortal realm. The Flora Echo travels very much the same way, although the strong energies which suppressed these spirits are no longer as potent. When the Echo enters the Mortal Realm, they gain a new vessel which can be from natural materials such as foliage or insects (dead or alive). Old sprites, meanwhile, may retrain their old appearance but the color which significantly defined them once before, no longer defines them. The old sprites who lived in the Fae Realm soon developed more complex personalities and ambitions unlike before. However upon entering the Mortal Realm, whether new or old, they feel very insecure and mournful. Having slipped from their peaceful paradise, they believe they were punished by the Aspects to wander the Descendant realm along with the descendants’ perils. It is due to this that sprites often travel the realm to perform various acts relating to their Domain in hopes to return to the Fae Realm. Within the Fae Realm comes three domains, each domain holding a different type of sprite. While the domain does not effect the appearance of a sprite, it is important for their ambitions and personality makeup.

Nightfall: Sprites who seek the redemption from Nemiisae. They believe bringing death to animals or even Descendants can gain Nemiisae’s favor in hopes to return to the Fae Realm. Not inherently evil, they are feared either way, ensuring death always occurs.

Twilight: Sprites who seek the redemption from Cernunnos. They believe that proving their bravery will gain Cernunnos’ favor, as such they challenge sprites, animals, or even Descendants. They make weapons and have an interest in exercise. They tend to follow hunters and help them to gain Cernunnos’ approval in hopes to return to the Fae Realm.

Dayward: Sprites who seek the redemption from Cerridwen. These sprites assist pregnant animals in their birth and spread seeds throughout the realm for them to grow in hopes to please Cerridwen. Although passive in nature, many can view their mischievousness in the form when these sprites try to rescue imprisoned animals or steal potted plants which are being mistreated.

          Sprites are not invincible however. Their souls, unlike Descendants, are incapable of learning any kind of magics. Any blight on nature can also affect the sprite since the sprite is tied to nature. When this blight reaches their core (which can only be cured by a druid through blight healing), after three irl hours, they die from the blight. Any casting of voidal magic or dark magic within a ten block radius causes a sprite moderate pain, just above discomfort which will cause them to scream since these negatively effect the natural world. Sprites can bleed out much like descendants, and their wings hold the most blood, thus their wings are their weak point. The wings are very delicate so bleeding out can be very easy. Sprites are also weak to fire, where they can be burned and feet, where they can be squashed should they not move away. Should a sprite be killed, their spirit reincarnates, some memories can be lost with each reincarnation and small personality changes can be evident. Their bodies are rebuilt, and only details can be changed should the appearance of a sprite change in any way. Sprites will forget memories surrounding their death like descendants.

          Sprites also have a series of abilities. They have Nature’s Communion, where they can communion with plants, animals, other Fae, and druids. It is a 15 block radius, and sprites cannot move plants or animals with this ability. Communion Voicing is another ability, where similar to the fae rings, sprites can allow unattuned Descendants to have a vague interaction with the voice of Nature where sprites can communicate emotions, simple thoughts, and messages, although more weaker than compared to the Fae Rings. This communication cannot distract, impair, or even manipulate a descendant. Unattuned Descendants can only hear the sprite, and can’t hear nature like attuned druids can. Sprites must touch the unattuned descendant, after five emotes can cause a sprite to have headaches and migraines. This ability requires two emotes to activate. The finally ability of a sprite is their toxin which also requires two emotes to activate. Visible physical strain must be present in the first emote. This toxin can give the sprite a brief chance to escape, once per combat scenario, which can break the concentration of a magic user in radius as well as stutter attacks in the form of a mist though does not freeze attack completely. Anyone who comes in contact with the mist will become dizzy and overwhelmed. Sprites cannot save their toxin for later, and only spreads in a three block radius, nor does the toxin physically harm or knock out a person.

A young high elven woman with blonde hair and green eyes traveled to the grave site, holding with her freshly grown a bouquet of white tulips, blue orchids, and red roses. She held with her a grim look, one of great sadness as she finally reached her destination. She stood there for a long moment, looking around at the offerings that were placed nearby. Flowers of all sorts, brought here for the man who was lost, she knew. She took a deep breath, nearly choking up though as she seemed near close to crying, but held it in. She moved to a spot near the grave, and paused, staring at it.

‘She never knew him...’ She can imagine the thoughts of other mali’thill, strangers. ‘I don’t understand why...’ ‘She never even met him...rather odd of her I would say...’ A pause. ‘Why does she care?’ She can hear them in her head, somewhat, replaying like a record starting a song once again. But maybe they had a reason to question her. She never knew him, she never met him, she doesn’t know who he is. All she knew was the situation that had occurred. So why then? Why do this? Why care when she never knew the guy? Why cry for him? Why bother?

But she had her reasoning. For this situation, she dusted the negative rumors and the questioning that made her unease. Then a single thought- no, a memory popped up in her head, a saying that she remembers from long ago. “Why do you pay respects to someone who is gone, Haelun?” A young mali’thill child asked, and the woman knew it was her as a kid. A pause, and then a small smile, no anger, but of kindness and compassion, the mother knew the child asked out of curiosity and confusion. It was one of the only memories she has of her mother. “Because...every man and woman lives, and dies...that is life, but...paying respects puts the soul at peace and makes them happy. That way they aren’t sad or angry. Some die...by their own hands...” She paused. “Why?” “Some do it because of the pain they suffered, or the pain they think or caused to others...it makes them sad...truly...” The child paused and then said. “Then...then we’ll make them happy, right? Won’t they get lonely?” “Not if you visit them often...it makes them happy too...” The mother then smiled and the memory fades to another, or perhaps a dream? The woman can’t remember which.

Two children are playing, both girls, and they seemed happy and carefree. They were playing tag...the mali’thill child seemed to be smiling wide. “Can’t catch me!” The other child, older, with a burn scar on her face and the mali’thill woman recognized as her best friend from long ago, smirked as she chased her. “Oh yeah? Watch me, just you wait!” They run into the graveyard, and the older child paused at a grave site, she stopped and stared at it. It was the grave of another child, a stranger. The mali’thill child noticed this and ran back to see what caused her best friend to stop. “What is it? Is something wrong?” The other child did not answer, instead she walked around, where she picks a lonely red flower, almost looks like fire, and walks back to the grave, planting it where the grave was. The mali’thill watched in silence, frowning in confusion. The best friend then closed her eyes and held her head low, in respect, and the mali’thill tried her best to match what she was doing. After a long moment of silence, the older girl spoke. “...Death can be sad...y’know?” A pause. “Some die leaving loved ones behind, but some die alone...and it’s sad to think if they wanted to be alone or not...or wanted to have someone...” She took a deep breath. “No one should be alone...it’s their choice if they want to be but...that’s why I did this...to make this person not so lonely...” The girl then stood up and gave a smile, perhaps one of determination. “It also gives me a reminder, to live life! That’s what life is about, right? To live it?” The mali’thill stood in amazement, but she gave a smile back, nodding. “Y-Yeah!” “Keep that in mind, okay? Now...you might wanna start running...” The mali’thill paused. “Why?” “Before I tag you!” The best friend laughed. “Don’t worry, I’ll give you a fifteen second head start, okay?” The older girl smirked and it all fades to reality.

The mali’thill then shook her head, with her reasoning in mind. She came here so to give respects to the man who had died. Yes, she never knew him, or even may not have met him. But she didn’t care. She didn’t care if this wasn’t the social normal right now. She wanted the man to be happy, and even not be alone. She wanted him to rest in peace, so his soul can move in. She never really knew about an afterlife, but she hoped the man would still be happy. Even if she was a stranger.

The mali’thill woman then began to plant the flowers carefully. Once that was done, she pulled out a note she had written. And set the note beside the flowers. The note read like this:

“Pelilasdir Vontia’athem,

To a man, who I may not know, yes, but even then, I still cry for the dead. I hope you live happy now, maybe beyond here...and that you are not alone...know that your loved ones will always love you, that they will never forget you, that you are someone who had loved and was loved. Don’t forget the good sides, the good memories, and I hope you rest in peace.

To the loved ones of Pelilasdir Vontia’athem,

I can only wish the best for you, I am sorry for the pain and the situation caused...I only pray he didn’t suffer badly in the end, and that he is happy. But don’t forget him. Remember all the happy memories, the laughs, the inspirations, the happiness that he gave and shared. With best wishes to heart.

Sincerely,

Ariselle

[!] A poem was also added to the bottom of the note. It read:

“Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

Even in or no crime.

They still shine,

But none brighter than you,

Some may not have a clue,

But you shined silver, tears that mark a tale, at least for a stranger.”

Once the woman had set all her items down, she stood up, speaking softly. “Rest in peace, llir, I only hope you are happy.” And then the woman made her trail away, but not without finally crying.

I have a similar problem, actually. When I try to log in to rp on my alternate account, I can’t log in. It goes all the way to Joining World and then Loading Terrain. Soon after the game darkens, like one would when transferring to the Lobby or vise versa, and then I’m kicked out, saying “Disconnected”. I tried an alternate route by trying to log into the lobby server which I still had the IP on my computer, but it says something exactly like in the screenshot above in the first post of this thread. I logged off for a bit to eat, then I come back and run into this problem. I don’t believe I’m using VPN or Proxy, restarted my MC, restarted my laptop, switched wifi’s, I essentially did what I thought could help but didn’t. And my alternate account has been whitelisted for a while, and my main account has been whitelisted since 2015.

If you guys can help to identify, fix, or tell of a solution, it would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

What magic(s) will you be teaching?

         Druidism: Nature's Communion and Control

Summarise the Lore of this magic(s):

Nature’s Communion and Control is the starting point before other Druidic abilities are learned. Nature’s Communion enables a recently attuned druid to listen, feel, see nature and creatures whom inhabit it and the more they progress in Tier, the more easier and stronger it is to do such actions. The same could be said for Nature’s Control, however, this ability enables a druid to interact with and control the plant life around them. However a druid does not have authority over Though both abilities are the starting abilities of a druid, such requires training, experience, and meditation, otherwise it won’t increase in Tier. No druid can advance or learn other abilities without Nature’s Communion and Control, however, at Tier Three in Nature’s Control, by doing practice and meditation, you can self-improve. Druidism is a Deity-based magic, meaning that they must be connected with the Aspects and Nature itself.

Write up a lesson that your character would give to a student:

Alydril Daemyr Serene, or as most druids call her, Sister Lotus, stood watching the river of the Mother Grove. She seemed deep in thought, before she turned her head to her student. A small wood elfess, who appeared to be that of a warrior, though more precisely, an archer. Alydril seemed to smile to the archer. Finally, she spoke. “Are you ready to begin, my student?” Alydril asked. “You know, this won’t be easy. But the end result will be worth it.”

The wood elf nodded slowly. “I’m ready.” She said.

“Then let us begin...” Alydril spoke softly.

Alydril then gestured the archer over, to which the archer followed. Alydril then sat down, her legs crossed. “Sit, please.” The archer did as asked, following suit in the same position as Alydril. They sat cross-legged, in a meditative position. Alydril closed her eyes, saying. “Now, close your eyes. Steady your breathing, and concentrate on the life, the nature that is around us.” The archer did just that, closing her eyes and concentrated on steadying her breathing.

“Do you hear them? The tweets of birds? The rustling of a tree’s leaves? The rustling of lush green grass? The flow of a clear river?” Alydril asked. “No not- Oh!” The archer said. “I hear them.” Alydril gave a soft smile at that. “Now, open your eyes.”

The archer did so, finding a not yet-bloomed flower between her and Alydril. “Now, let us test you. Try and have the flower bloom.” The archer looked to Alydril, raising a brow, but still gave a nod. “Now, close your eyes. Bring your hand forth, and focus. Speak to the flower, bring it to blossom in it’s beauty.” With each action told, the archer did so. The archer began to focus, her eyes glowing beneath her shut eyelids. Though she seemed to struggle, trying to focus as hard as she could. “Calm, my student, you must be calm in order to do such actions. Staying calm will help you progress even in your darkest times.” Alydril said. The archer, then, began to take slow deep breaths, trying to steady her breathing. And then...

The flower began to bloom, slowly but surely. Once the flower fully bloomed, the archer put down her hand, she seemed a bit exhausted, as this was her first time trying. Alydril smiled, hope in her eyes as she stood. “You have done well. You seem tired, tough this is to be expected. Go get some rest, you’ve earned it. We will continue with another lesson, another day...”

Alydril then extended her hand to the archer with a smile, the archer looked at the hand for but a moment, but she takes it, giving a slight smile. “I will look forward to it.” The archer said.

These should be a given for anyone honestly regardless of the race but these hit the mainstream problems with orcs and why I have such a distasted for roleplaying with them for the full like how many years I've been on here (Too many imo)

Yes I agree, I very much agree. It kinda makes me sad because the orcs have so much potential, such as cultural, roleplay, and magical aspects, but it makes me sad because it's not usually put to good use, or even listened to for that matter. That's why I made suggestions in hopes to improve orc roleplay for everyone (well, almost everyone).

Honestly I think this poll is a good idea, good job Smaw! Personally I play a few orcs (2-3) but honestly being an orc doesn't seem as fun as it seemed to be when I first played. It's still fun, but there are a few things I think that can improve orc roleplay as a whole.

Personally I am kinda iffy on Blah. While it's interesting, it can be rather hard to learn for those who are unfamiliar with it. But at the same time I don't think Blah is necessarily the issue. To me, the orcs appear more moronic, cultivates memery, which in turn prevents serious roleplayers from joining. I think it's personally how people control their orcs and how they mainly focus on memery and the funny aspect of orcs, (as well as the grrrrr I'm gonna kill you grrrr aspect) which personally I don't think that's what orcs are all about.

It's not that I have a big problem with memes and funny/joke roleplay, but honestly having too much of it (say everyday) takes away the fun, serious, cultural aspect of the orcs. I did meet some who are rather nice. But most are. . .kinda making me uncomfortable in some ways. I believe the orcs have a lot of potential in their culture and their beliefs, but I don't think memery and joke roleplay are the whole way to go. I understand orcs are supposed to be brutal, but is it really necessary to have joke roleplay as you do it? And I've also heard complaints about there being too much pvp, and hardly focusing on the roleplay aspect of the orcs, which I can somewhat agree with, but that's not entirely the cause. I also have had complaints that slavery isn't good roleplay as it used to be. They just make you work, mechanically, and don't even focus on the roleplay aspect, so they say.

Back in Vailor, I noticed that when the orcs roleplay, they tried to make it so it's fun for others. For example, one orc who kidnapped my first character, asked for OOC permission if I can be a slave (in a nice way), which was a nice thing to do. They also tried to make my roleplay as active and fun as possible while I was a slave, we had cool interactions which I thought was really fun. That's what inspired me to roleplay my orcs the way I roleplay them. When I try and capture slaves, I ask for OOC permission. And the players who I captured or asked if that was a good idea, loved the idea and thought it was a good idea! Almost all of them!

To sum it up, I think in order to improve orc roleplay, focus on the roleplay aspects more.

Roleplay Aspects to focus on:

Slavery (This is one of the BIG, main things I want people to focus on)

- Make it fun for others (EX: providing roleplay, this can include good roleplay interactions, making sure they are having fun)

- Ask for OOC consent

Cultural (Another big thing that needs to be focused on)

- Teach new orcs about the spirits

- Try and create an orc society full of lore and in depth roleplay

- Teach Shamanism but make sure that others are interested and want to focus on it

- Teach new orcs how to be orcs! (Teaching Blah is an example, though I am still iffy if Blah should even be in orcs)

- Try and have orcs explore the history and learn about it, (Events can help!)

-Try and pick leaders who will try and keep the orc nation and orc roleplay in general interesting!

DO NOT:

- Don't make slaves work mechanically all the time

- Don't make orcs focus on meme roleplay

- Don't kill people all the time

- Don't mix jokes and memes into roleplay

- Don't simply capture slaves out of random without consent

- DON'T do memes and jokes that make people uncomfortable

Don't meme all the time (memeing a few times is okay, but not everyday, take a break on that), don't be "grrr I'mma kill you grrrrr" (yes orcs are brutal but let them have more honor), don't mix memes or jokes with roleplay, less pvp (keep pvp but don't do it too much), and make sure that the other players have fun! It's important for other players to have fun that way we can create a more friendly community!

@Smaw Honestly I would love to discuss more of this with you! Please pm me if you want to talk more, I'd be happy to talk ? plus I have a few ideas I want to discuss.

@Dizzy771 Yes I definitely agree with you on that part.

@Tox and @Norvina Yes I definitely agree with you two, perhaps we can discuss this more in pms? I have a few ideas I wanted to discuss.

Religions-

The Hou-Zi have two religions. There is Shenjiao, and Huajiao. Shenjiao is the main religion followed by most if not all Hou-Zi. This religion was the worship of the monkey king and the first Hou-Zi, Hou-Shen and his sons whom was said to be the subraces of the Hou-Zi. The other religion, Huajiao, meanwhile was worshipped by most of the lower caste of the Hou-Zi society. This lower caste consisted of Laobai-Zhu. This religion stems from the ideals of ‘four truths’ which define nature itself and also in this religion, is to achieve a state of enlightenment.

Hou-Zi History-

Metzli, a deity, was the original creator of the Hou-Zi however the Hou-Zi were created as an experiment. This experiment was to create the ‘perfect being’. This was done by giving a single monkey from the jungles of Azul in Axios a higher level of intelligence and modified the body to resemble more like the descendants. This first Hou-Zi was called Hou-Shen and later became the leader of the Hou-Zi. Over the next fifty years for the Hou-Zi civilization, it had came into creation along with their capital Jing-Taiyun. Hou-Shen, later, was approached by his creator Metzli and was told he must conquer the rest of Axios from the Kingdom of Malin which had little contact with the Hou-Zi thus far. Two wars had occurred between the Hou-Zi and the Elves and another war amongst the Hou-Zi themselves.

The First Great War:

The first war in which Hou-Shen was killed. The Hou-Zi kingdom began to push their forces throughout Axios and conquered the island of Asul. However, when the Hou-Zi made their assault on Malinor city of the Kingdom of Malin, Hou-Shen was killed. The Kingdom of Malin then fought back, pushing the Hou-Zi back to their jungle within the lands of Asul.

The Second Great War:

During this war, Metzli rebirthed Hou-Shen with pure white fur and soon after, the Hou-Zi slowly prepared for war once again. During this time, however, the Kingdom of Malin has split into three separate nations among the Wood Elves, the High Elves, and the Dark Elves. These nations all developed their own separate ways in civilizations and had new strengths. Due to this, the three nations stomped the Hou-Zi early in their conquest. They had only reconquered Asul but then were pushed back to their capital.

The Jade War (Destruction of the Hou-Zi):

Resources during this time were sparse and rare among the Hou-Zi. This was due to being confined to the small jungle lands of Asul and the Hou-Zi empire being a shadow of it’s former self, no longer the great empire it was. It became an issue for a culture relying on wealth and had snobby nature. The riches were hard to come by, sought by the highest of Hou-Zi families. As a result, they started to steal from other families, causing many wars between the Hou-Zi themselves. Hou-Shen became fed up and was unable to resolve the now constant conflict among the Hou-Zi. He decided to then leave the Hou-Zi and left the seat of power empty, disappearing into the jungle of Asul. He was never seen again since then. The empire, soon after, died. This left the remaining Hou-Zi's and Hou-Zi families to break apart and wander the world of Axios, alone and with little hope they had left.

The Atmorice Bloodline

(Symbol of the Atmorice Bloodline, the Snake)

“We would rather die for our nation, our freedoms, and our Snow Elven kind before we bow or become slaves to those who despise us.”

History

The Atmorices were one of the founding bloodlines within the Mali’fenn. It all began with Siol Atmorice, the first woman of the bloodline. She was one of the original Snow Elves, one who went through the world altar and Wyrvun’s Blessing. As she was blessed, Siol is rumored to have seen Wyrvun, whereby the Aengul gave Siol some instructions of her own. Wyrvun told her to ensure that the Mali’fenn do not stray from Wyrvun’s blessing, and to keep a watchful eye on them. To let them stray to the path of darkness, will be the fall of the Snow Elves. Siol agreed to this and soon after she was blessed, Siol became the first High Priestess of the Mali’fenn. That was, until her death. They say she died of illness, but they remember her last words. “Let me not be remembered as a coward, but for the courage and rights we have all fought for.” Since then, the Atmorices have held high expectations to become priests and priestesses, with most becoming high in the ranking. That was their tradition. The rest of the Atmorice History, however, has been kept secret from public eye, for how long no one knows.

Common Physical Appearance

The Atmorices range in height from 5’8” to 6’0” in feet, often considered to be in the middle when comparing heights of the Snow Elves. They have some athletic builds to them, but not a whole lot of muscle - although they are known for their rigid statures. The common color for an Atmorice’s hair is pure white to silver, and their eye color comes in silver, blue, and rarely, purple.

Disposition

A common Atmorice is usually discovered to be dignified, eloquent, cultured, well educated, and respectful towards their snow elven kind, putting their main focus into their work and to see and ensure the success of the Snow Elves. The Atmorices consider family to be one of the most important things in their lifestyle, often showing to be very protective of their family members. They are also protective of their Snow Elven kin and would often put their life on the line to ensure their safety. The Atmorices often consider accomplishments to be apart of their lifestyle, taking their work into serious consideration. Towards other races, however, they are untrusting, even hostile, in particular, to the other elves. The reason for this being that the Atmorice bloodline are make up and focus on one of the main aspects to the Mali’fenn culture, religion. This religion being the one in which follows Wyrvun. Furthermore, centuries of warfare against the Mali’mira have led to hostility towards such outsiders. You can usually find an Atmorice studying or working hard to accomplish their goals. The Atmorices are rather honorable as well, despite looking rather cold towards others. They especially honor their previous ancestors, taking what experiences they have had and learning from it.

Specialties

One of the key specialities of an Atmorice is that they are very knowledgeable about the world around them and can often put up good arguments. This makes them skillful politicians. As part of their religious fervor, they are often adept at motivating the Ivae’fenn for battle. For some who know the Atmorices, they consider the bloodline to be “snakes”. The reason for this is due to their strict views and masterful political prowess.

Professions

The Atmorices are often found to be the priests of the Snow Elven society, acting to give blessings and ceremonies to their fellow snow elven kind. Their service in the ranks of the Wyrvun’fiyem is profound, and they often occupy the position of High Priest/Priestess. However, they are not strictly to become priests. The Atmorices are also the ones who often put on and plan ceremonies and festivals, as well as other festivities, for their Snow Elven people. About half of the festivities are dedicated to Wyrvun, while the rest are for things such as celebrations and memorials.

Style of Combat

The Atmorice Bloodline mainly choose to wield lances, spears, and bows, although swordsmanship is common as well. The Atmorices who hold swords are often the strongest of their bloodline. During battles and wars, though, Atmorice would often be found acting as the cavalry of the Ivae’fenn, riding heavily armored horses into battle - making them skilled horse riders as well. These skillful horsemen wield lance and shield, launching thunderous heavy cavalry charges to decisively shatter points in their opponent’s lines.

Ceremonies

The Birth of a New Member- When a new Atmorice is born, a small ceremony is hosted in their honor. The ceremony is hosted not just for their honor, but to be blessed by the Priest and to wash away any sins that may have been brought. The Priest may also determine a good or bad future for the Atmorice. After the ceremony the Atmorices have a large feast to celebrate the blessing of those born and blessed.

Coming of Age- At the age of 16, the Atmorice would hold a coming of the age ceremony to have the Atmorice who turned that age prove their worth. To do this, the Atmorice set up a fighting tournament to see who will come out on top, for all of the Mali’fenn. The same goes for when they reach adulthood at the age of 50.

Passing Memorial- Whenever an Atmorice passes away, the bloodline will host a ceremony in their honor. They often dress in black to honor them, and usually give offerings for those who had died to ensure a safe passage into the afterlife.

Ancestral Belongings

-The Sword of Serenity-

Description: The weapon wielded by the first Atmorice of the bloodline. It has since survived the wars and battles it has been exposed to, and it still seems to be in good condition, despite being a very ancient weapon. This sword symbolizes the strength of the Atmorice and the will to fight for what they believe is right for their people.

-The Staff of Deceiving-

Description: The staff wielded by the first priest within the Atmorice bloodline. Like the Sword of Serenity, it has survived many wars and battles, and it too, is a very ancient and sacred weapon to the Atmorice. However, this staff serves as a reminder of the horrible deeds done to the Mali’fenn, and that no one is as they seem. Despite this, this staff is often used in rituals and ceremonies regarding the Priest and the religion.
