BACKGROUND

It happened not so long ago; a raging flood came from out of nowhere and devastated the world as we know it submerging buildings and sweeping people away in its swirling chaos. Prince Coss scrambled to gather all of the survivors together and flee with them to the safety of the Mu Continent. A place hidden deep in the depths of the ocean purported to be peaceful and richly endowed. The people of Clude welcomed Prince Coss and his people with open arms and generously offered them a piece of their abundant land. Unfortunately the peace there wasn’t destined to last for long; the Silver Dragon Costa soon approached with it’s thousands strong army and invaded the plain. They were driven by their greed and hatred for all that is good…

The war was fierce and bloody; with many a good man losing his life. Prince Coss and his loyal supporters finally overcame Costa and defeated him. But not before Costa was able to put a deadly curse on Coss’s sword, (Silver Dragon Wings). With no other choice available to him Coss had to destroy his faithful weapon. The craftsman, Bathory was chosen to do the deed but the temptation proved to be too much for him, instead of smashing it he refined the mighty blade into a small crystal and stole it away into the night.

The plain that was occupied by Coss and his followers became know as God’s Favor. On its vast and spacious plains they set up the country of Flange and Coss was crowned the King.

But the peace on the Mu Continent was not to last. The Beard tribe made plans to split the land of Clude into two separate kingdoms – Shaba; which advocates power and discipline and Alec; which lives under the rule of magic and peace. But the Beard didn’t stop there they also summoned legions of deadly blood sucking leeches to help them invade. But worse than that, they managed to get their hands on the Silver Dragon Wings. With the weapon and the leeches on their side they launched a sudden and violent attack on Alec and declared unholy war on Shaba.

But even in these trying times a small glimmer of hope shines… The humans, their robots and Shaba’s giants have all joined forces to get rid of the accursed Beards. Even the peace lovers from Alec are ready to take arms and join the fight. This war has been casting its terrible shadow over the gentle people of Mu. Trouble is brewing and you, little suzerain, must prepare yourself for what is to come…

CLASSES

Human
Kos country stretches out among the fertile flatlands of God’s Favor Plain and is home to the humans. Without the strong bodies and powerful mana skills of the races, they are considered to be a relatively weak class, but their wisdom and intelligence are often overlooked, and is the principle reason they have come to dominate the plains. They were also the first races to unite and fight together and the first to create mechanical weapons.

Shaba
With their tall, strong bodies, it is easy to write them off as mere labor or warriors. In fact these people have a long history and a culture that prizes bravery and glory in battle. When the Bilde attacked Alec and started the war that has consumed the continent, the Shaba mobilized their fearsome warriors and began preparing for war.

Alec
The people of Alec broke away from the Shaba tribe centuries ago and have since grown into a strong community that prizes magical knowledge above physical strength. Much more peaceful than the Shaba, they have absorbed the curiosity and wisdom of the humans and used it to enhance their mana skills. Sensing possible weakness, the Bilde attacked the Alec first, hoping to wipe them out before confronting the Shaba. However the Bilde underestimated the power of the Mages in Alec, and what was supposed to be a prelude to war has devolved into the bloody front lines of an enduring conflict.
