Religion
As mentioned previously, the Osmar faith is Bitheistic. (which as you can guess means two gods) The Gods have no names nor are they depicted with any shape. Rather they are the embodiment of their respective elements, the Sea and the Dark, below and above. The faith teaches that the world exists only because it is allowed to by both of these. The Osmar praise them and ask for nothing in return for fear it might invoke their ire. Some more fanatical sects declare daylight to be an illusion, and thus will only operate at dark, but these people are low in numbers. Most Osmar will "choose" one or the other and will stay more faithful to that, whilst still repaying their respects to the other. The Seers, a gender neutral term, are the spiritual leaders and each is only permitted to conduct sermons for one god. As a result the leadership is split into two High Seers. While there is no rules pertaining to it, the High Seer of the Sea is typically male while the High Seer of Dark is typically female.
Marriage
Marriage can often mean a different thing to the peasants than it does the nobles. For peasants, it is a joyous expression of mutual love between two people. Whereas for Nobles it is a means of forming alliances through marital bonds as well as a means of producing heirs. Because of this, public Same-gender relationships are typically shunned amongst the upper class and extramarital affairs are common.
Government
At the highest level, the kingdom is run by a Monarch under a feudal system. All those within the borders are beholden to them. The monarch wields absolute power in the territory directly under its control, which is called a domain and is historically the county of Burtun. The monarch may appoint advisors to assist them in the running of realm. Directly under the Monarch are the Earls. They exert their power over counties and have power similar to that of the monarch in their own domain. Unlike the monarch, they have no power in other earldoms and have certain obligations to fulfil, such as providing the Monarch with a portion of their collected tax and contributing a levy of soldiers when at war. For the most part, they are a law unto themselves. Going down another level brings you to the Baron/Baroness. They are the lowest landed noble and typically have control of a castle and its nearby village. They have their obligations to whomever controls the county capital, be it Earl or Monarch.
Will add more in future, let me know if you feel like something is missing.

True Adamance wrote:And I thought the Osmarii were civilised.......
I'll be going into further detail on it in an eventually upcoming Military section, but the Osmar actually frown on taking a life. It's typically reserved for the most grievous acts taken against the crown.
But when they do deem that someone should be executed, they ensure they suffer, as a reminder that their acts are unforgivable.
Question for Raven, what's the Mahj religion?
Question for all, can anyone suggest a name for the religion so it's not called the "Osmarii Faith"? I can't seem to think of anything fitting.
Last point: Added in a section on tolerance to my previous post here if anyone is interested.

Quote:Side note can our species breed. I think one of the possible choices such as Civic for the Caldari would be a side species who were taller than regular Parics, but shorter than regular Tal-Man and stronger than Parics. But would have some reptile fetures from the Parics
Brought up by Vash more than once in the IC thread, as of yet gone unresolved so I decided I'd port it here. Because of how Human the mainland species are (Tal, Paric and Osmar) I'd swing it as a yes for them.

True Adamance wrote:Hey Spade what would one normally find on an Osmarii Frigate?
I'll be going into the ships in more detail, but if we're talking frigate then that's the fastest Osmar ship. Too small for the line of battle and their guns are generally on a single deck and certainly no more than two. About thirty to fourty cannons per ship and relatively large square sails. If you scaled the ship of the line down to size, the frigate would be longer and narrow than it. Scouting, raiding, trade disruption and protection are what they're best for. Most manoeuvrable ship in the Osmar navy, though likely not as manoeuvrable as Mur ships. Crew would be reasonably skilled swordsmen as is necessary if boarding or being boarded.
Anything I missed?
Also while I'm here I'll mention one of my earllier posts is updated with the army.

Badly? 
Just throwing things out, but would use of ambush tactics fit well? Particularly if close to a body of water such as a lake or river.
Also navy detailed. That's the last one I can think of.
On religion name, thanks for the suggestions but I'm still not sure, I need something that sounds bit more...germanic, seeing as Anglo Saxon is the primary influence. Latin works too as that's a secondary influence. Will continue to mull it over.

But if I'm not mistaken the Creed isn't the entirety of the Paric Military. What do the rest do?
Unless it is and they're less numerous than other nations soldiers? Sorry, I'm just not clear on how the Paric would go about fighting a war.

Could cause a civil war in Osmarium. Osmar aren't above enforced servitude (as described in the military section) but the Queen is quite friendly. Many landed lords however are more wary of the influence they have, and so would likely go against the monarchy should she side with them.
All leaving an opportunity for an ambitious noble to attempt to usurp the throne.

Also, relating to the "Threat should they turn hostile", that's greater in the capital province. Crasmere is too isolated to have a large number of the creed whilst the Earls of the other two have limited there numbers somewhat. But I'm sure they're still present.

sir RAVEN WING wrote:Good point.
Every magic should have it's own downside.
If you are planning on using a magic, post it here along with a proposed downside if you have one.
Alright. Taking the previously mentioned one,
Effect: Reinforces willpower, encourages a soldier to fight on despite hardships. Someone affected by this spell will not flee from combat and will take more injuries and attack with greater ferocity..
As it is essentially a trick of the mind, it confers no physical improvements. This means that it in no way affects how much blows a soldier can take, but rather how much they are willing to take. It must be actively and continuously held by the caster and if ended abruptly can leave a man momentarily confused and dazed.
So, that's one that'd likely show up once magic is revealed more in Osmar territory. (If approved of course)

I'm not really concerned. I have a very solid understanding of what Arkena plans to start with and how to progress.... when he does arrive I'd already thought of potential contingencies for him......and now since I know magic exists....something I didn't know previously.... what's to be concerned about.
Dudes who worry me are the Osmar.
Their racial design is bloody flawless. Rifles, Ships, Pike and Plate Armour. Trader Nation with Naval Traditions. Already militarised. Technologically Advanced. Magically Advanced. Numerous, Own Large Tracts of Land on the Main Continent, Owns Crasmere in the North. Has potential to annex Tal-Man between the Cauti, the Bloods, and his own lands. Aeschild's more lenient rule is on the decline. Knows about the Cathay-Raht which we don't. Is friends with them. Cathay Raht are giant ******* Cat People with Dwarfs.
From a military perspective they have everything my people lack. Experienced Modern Soldiers. Disciplined Formations. Vast Lands. Naval Traditions Rivalling my own. Etc. Too flexible and adaptable for its own good.
Unlike Spade other RP factions have more obvious weaknesses to exploit.
I apologise if I've presented them as flawless, that wasn't the intention. Militarily, the chain of command is both a strength and weakness. Whilst it lends to well organised and disciplined formations if that's cut it's put into disarray. Particularly when you consider that presently Earls and Barons themselves tend to lead armies. Say if Coenwulf became king and declared war on the Paric. A quick way to end that might be to take him prisoner in battle. He would however refuse to give up land.
On that note, a combined strength and weakness is that the nation is heavily influenced by its ruler. Say again Coenwulf becomes king, his rule could lead to Naval traditions being somewhat neglected in favour of land.
The earls also have a great deal of autonomy, they are only required to provide a quarter of their soldiers to the monarch in times of war. They can provide more if they wish, but that requires them to like their liege.
Also I don't think I've gotten any magical abilities yet.

True Adamance wrote:No I don't mean that's how you have presented them. It's how I interpret their flexibility and skill sets. In this world humans really are a dominant force and for good reason. Clear and well rounded empire development.
Perhaps their one weakness is that they are too well rounded and don't particularly excel in too many fields in the way a meta human race might.
E.G- Artugian poisoned claws, Mur capacity to swim and stay submerged, Tal-Man size and strength, etc.
Oh physically yes, of course, they try to make up for that with the stuff they use. The only thing I give them in that regard is that they'd be used to the cold (I assume due to how far up they are in the map. Incidentally, that's where the pale skin and hair came from when Raven initially did the map.)

The Osmar border would have outposts to collect tolls for the upkeep of the roads. Further along there'd be watchtowers, typically each one in sight of another until you'd come across a town. Most towns have some kind of central fortified structure from a burh to castle depending on wealth. Usually stone is used but if it cannot be accessed, isn't considered necessary or is too expensive for whomever is constructing it wood is used instead.
Occasionally a town can be built around a church rather than a castle and ore suitable fortifications would the be built.
Lastly, the region of Osmarium in the corner down between Paric lands and Tal-Men lands is at the edge of a forest.

I prefer the kind of assassination that involves large calibre artillery. Then it's not really assassination is it. Plus I agree with you. The Skadii-an Navy is all about fire power and mobility.....just not staying power.... plus I often feel like having what amounts to a rudimentary gravity manipulation magic makes fighting Mur really scary on the oceans. Never underestimate the vast and arguably over powered applications of mundane/vector magic. Attraction (Pull), Repulsion (Push), Restoration (Reallocation), Vibration (Quake), Tension (Malleability), Resonation (Sound), Abrasion (Deconstruction).
Hey as long as they don't see it coming that's assassination in my book.

Hey, so for my siege I did some rolls using a d20
20 (Critical success) large breach in the walls.
13 (Minor success) 1st assault. Significant defender deaths, noticeable attacker deaths, fort not yet taken.
12 (Minor success) 2nd assault, similar to 1st but consecutive assaults result in walls taken.
20 (Critical success) Central castle is stormed, attackers overrun completely, fortress taken.

Unsure of what to do with him now. He was to receive orders to extend an offer of vassalisation to King Za'Harr but Cryptic seems to be one now.

Having said that I am thinking of finding some way to flesh out the wildlife more, at the moment I'm considering giant birds and I'm wondering if I want the more recently extinct, larger, and herbivorous Elephant bird or the millions of years old, slightly small carnivorous Phorusrhacos.
In general I'm basing my animals on extinct creatures, usually more recently extinct.

One of my draws towards the Phorusrhacos/Titanis group of birds is that I think it'd be an excellent land creature to properly terrify the Mur when it comes sprinting towards them at 65-ish km/h It would be interesting to if they could survive and axe to the neck or perhaps have the earth shatter beneath their feet. TENSION AUTHORITY!
Hmm, what if they were trained for war?

Then..... Johnny will have to tell us how the Festival ends, I'll need to make a post involving my other characters namely Kal'm, and the world may go on.
Hey I know how it goes, there's no point forcing it out. Chances are you'll just get some substandard lines you're not happy with.
On the future of the Osmarium, what do I do about the Cat people? My plan was to send an offer to them to join the glorious Osmar Empire. If they refused and Coenwulf became ruler he'd be more...insistent.
Then we'd have wacky scenes of monstrous Cat people attempting to deal with the civilised Osmar society, oh the humanity!

Two things.
One, how does the Osmarii population look upon the Parians? Need to know this for some future stuff.
Secondly, Is there to be a scene for Krion and +åschild, or will it simply be skipped? I might try to write up an assassination attempt on Krion.
Poor Krion, he is abused far too much.
1: Short answer is it depends on status and location.
With Aeschild's (ya'll can just drop the ash and go with the Ae, it's quicker) former membership of the Creed many of the nobles view them as having too much influence over the Queen and, as a result, the Empire. This leads into Coenwulf's attempt to take the crown.
The peasants are very much influenced by the views of their liege as they tend to be one of the few sources of information about the wider world so it's not difficult to influence their views. So those living in Burtun (Funfact: The name of the capital began with me taking the anglo-saxon words for big, burg, and town, tun, (roughly) and jamming them together) are somewhat accepting of them due to the Queen and her friendship with them.
Those in Kilerth under Coenwulf are more hostile because of the Earl's own dislike of them. Up north-west most are indifferent because of the distance, but still wary, particularly with tension brewing between the friendly Tal-Men and the Paric.
The Cauti could throw in wrench in the works. After all history will depict the foreigners are the most prominent group within the whether it's true or not.
2: There could well be a wedding scene with all implied activities afterwards omitted. (that's not a route we want to go down) The House of Hroth needs an heir after all.

Hey you already have eerily human fish people who don't really understand the whole 'wearing clothes' nonsense you humans seem to have going on trying to integrate into your society.
By the way I need to have Kal'm leave Burtgun with his forces for Coenwulf's army at the border.
Would everyone be alright with me essentially claiming the Cathay-Raht as my own?
Coenwulf just exited a siege. Campaigns are known about across the realm so he should be able to find out where they are/are going. (I don't though. Need fort names, did you have any in mind for the Cauti Raven? Or will I go with my own using what I think fall within naming conventions?)

(Regardless, I am currently writing a boarding scene of another merchant ship, one that should give them some attention.)
It'd take more (or an attack in clear view), a single trade ship along a busy enough route can easily be put down to storms. Should many go down however the number of ships protecting the trade would go up, with a few large warships actively hunting pirates if it's a big enough issue.

It probably is, I'll do my best to refine it as we go. Good to hear. Za'Harr may become more proper as his time around the Osmar grows, but I do not know. Though, if you would, what is the opinions on the Paric people by each area. (Such as Kilerth and Howe are likely different. Some smaller places may have different majority opinions that their mother province.) On Kilerth, is racism common against the Paric or not? Am I confused about the Creed being removed from Kilerth, but not Parians?
You're right on that last one. Given the proximity it'd be virtually impossible to expel the race entirely. The Paric would essentially be treated as second class citizens in Kilerth, which would be most noticeable in the capital of the same name. Some of the barons (they're to an Earl what an Earl is to a queen, I just leave them un-named because that'd be way too much people) may disagree and in their lands they'd find life easier, but most would follow the Earl's way of thinking.
Howe would be much more neutral, with suspicions replacing hostility if it is to be found. Part of this is due to distance, next to Crasmere it's the furthest away from Paric lands and has a lower population than either Burtun or Kilerth. It does however have Tal-man residents and if their homeland begins to view the Paric as enemies it could change opinions.

Mur do not become violent particularly easily but Kal'm had to deal with several such charges of assault when the Mur first arrived in Burtgun.
Assuming that since Parians are unpopular in Kilerth, and Kal'm had those instances, that the Parians in Kilerth would at least occasionally be assaulted. But the people of Kilerth How do they view the Parians, impoverished, Bloods (Not BR), and the Creed.
The impoverished have little choice in the line of work they can pursue, so they're put to work on the lands of a lord. A lord would tend to look after their own, meaning Osmar would typically be given work sooner than any other, and given that Kilerth is ruled by Coenwulf the Paric are even less likely by him or the lords under him as they share his sentiments. The workers themselves work long, hard hours, but as they are working the land directly for a lord are exempt from taxes and are given shelter and enough food to support them.
But a lord is only willing to take so many in this manner, those that aren't are left to their own devices. Those capable of paying taxes put refusing often find themselves in the dungeon. Those that can't can find themselves thrown there for different reasons as they become desperate enough to steal for their livelihood. Many that are both healthy and desperate enough join up with bandits, and as more paric resort to this kind of occupation opinions of them worsen.
Should a mercenary company look for recruits, they would no doubt go to the major towns and take someone regardless of their status so long as they prove themselves...

Not impossible, no. It could happen by battlefield knighthood. A Tal living in Osmar lands could enlist in the military if they so wished and any soldier that shows extreme bravery, skill, valour and so on could be knighted by a landed noble on the field of battle.
Alternatively, though perhaps less likely, they could have been adopted by an Osmar noble and trained.
sir RAVEN WING wrote:
What does it look like, the city itself.
You forgot Bloods and Creed.
Also, I would assume they would not give Krion a warm welcome, especially since he will be there under Savek rather than Vin or Krion.
And he will be wearing a mask often.
The city is located on a river, the Banbrim that runs from west to north-east through the neighbouring forest. The city itself would be reminiscent of a medieval city, smaller than the capital for obvious reason but using a similar idea. Farmland surrounding it and then an artificially created moat along the outer wall. The largest and widest streets are those that lead to the keep, and for that reason the city is organised in a way around these. They lead to squares which are home to many commercial buildings, and the occasional wealthy resident. Residential buildings are found further in among narrower streets.
The keep itself is surrounded by a second wall and is located on a kind of island formed by a second smaller river joining up to the Banbrim. The gates here are more closely guarded and typically only those that have business with the Earl or his family are allowed to pass.
Being one time enemies of the Osmar, the Bloods suffer a lessened version of what the Paric do. Lessened because there are no current hostilities between them and have not been for some time, whereas tensions are building with the Paric.
The creed are outlawed in Kilerth. One suspected of working with them can be detained and questioned, and should it be proven thrown into a dungeon until a sentence is passed by the Coenwulf, or in the case of his absence by his wife.
If the mask Krion wears identifies him as a member of the creed then at best he will be refused entry by traditional means, if not then the mask will still be suspicious but he will be allowed entry.
As long as he stays in the honest areas of the place he'll be treated as well as any strange traveller who refuses to show their face.

So no glitter?
Also does magic in the rp have any weaknesses or anything? Just out of curiosity.
And future exploitation of course.

And future exploitation of course. Well while the Mur have comparatively more authority users than most landborn species do only a small number of them actually have any appreciable talent. As such it relies on an already taxed human resource and a single rather abundant mineral resource to function. The purpose of Magi-Technology is to reduce the burden on Shapers by allowing them to store their Authorities which can be released at a later time to power a Fabricae to facilitate the function of pumps, lifts, drive systems, and even weapons discharges by reducing tasks that should require complex sequences of magic to perform into ones that only require singular commands. I don't really know how to balance it's destructive power vs technology yet but I do intend to produce rifles, high pressure water cannon, ironclads, and amphibious armoured vehicles.
Ah, batteries for your fish people to put their fish energy into and power their fishmobiles.

Titanium Weave is still a thing we can give you, and seeing as we are the only nation on Zoi (Main Continent) who have a Magi faction. (As seen with the assassination of Stalin)
I may be wrong about the Magi faction thing.
Anyway, your choice.
AND ABOUT THE EVERYDAYS OF MUR LIFE
Oh, this remind me to warn True about something,
Depending how things turn out, the Osmar and Paric kingdoms could become united. It's Krion's fault. Use this information as you will.

All the talk about selling this gene or that gene and my people just have cannons to compensate for their lack of superior genes.

As like right now, Krion is in Kilerth (A Creedsman, with close ties to the crown, in Kilerth under the guise of a hedge knight.)
I should get onto writing my next post on that.
There is also the fact that there are pirates on your coast
There are tense relations between the Tal and Parians
There could be other huge events happening.
Also, I am just going to assume that Krion and Aeschild are now married and he found a way to keep her in power?
1: Ah yes, I shall await and have a response.
2: Were there? I remember a single pirate attack by True but not beyond that.
3: Could come into play via Coenwulf
4: Very true
5: Yes to the first part, the second part will come into play once the war with the Cauti is over. Coenwulf is the driving force behind that and can't very well usurp whilst away. I should also point out that even if she lost the crown she'd remain in control of Burtun and its county.

Junior Captain Jhakil and Captain Verigo.
Two of those who happened to be in one post.
I am unsure if Jhakil is still there after the first, if there are more than one.

Because you aren't a neutral third party. You're marriage with the Paric makes your nation an ally of Patris at best and a political pawn at worst.
Continent wise it's all a game of investments. I have a foot in the door with the Osmarii despite them being tied at the hip with Paris due to Krion's marriage to their queen leaving the two nations in an amicable relationship. Any foreign intrigue that triggers in Osmar will see the Mur involved and backing either the royals or the nobility and if necessary using military force to stop intervention by Patris, or risk seeing Osmar become a protectorate state.
As such my only options are to back either the Western Blooder States or the Tal-Man so that they benefit from an economic arrangement allowing them to oppose foreign intervention by either power.
That said I've also discovered a particular species that I find agreeable in the Southern Oceans far remote from the continent whom have been taken as slaves by the Tal. Rather than contest the cultural right of either I can simultaneously continue to ensure Artugans are freed from bondage without weakening the Tal-Man who actually benefit from this continued trade.
Because I immediately free any slaves I purchase I can't be accused or supporting slavery as no such concept exists in Mur society nor can I be seen to be slighting Tal culture without them accusing my own of being in the wrong. Outside entities simply can't accuse me either or risk losing out on the trade and shipping opportunities of the Mur.
Which leads me into my latest scheme..... but more on that later. All I have to do now is bide my time and wait for Magi-tech to bring me up to part with your nations.
Whelkcannon, Silverfish Skimmers, Magi-tech Rifles and Grenades, Ironclads, etc.
I contest that claim, if anything the Paric would be the pawns. Besides, the only way these kingdoms could become united under one ruler is if Coenwulf doesn't usurp the throne and Krion does usurp the Paric throne.
Or I guess any child of his could press a claim on the throne if they wished.
