PETRIROUX-REBELS
Originating from the harsh landscape of the Ak-sohus region, they are one of the oldest and most respected rebel organisation in the area. Their origins can be traced back to when Gilmesh was still king and ruler of Petriroux castle.
After the disappearance of Gilmesh, there were many different ideas of who or what should take over the responsibility of ruling Petriroux. This instability and lack of leadership caused rebel groups to crawl out of the woodworks and attempt to take control. The Petriroux rebels are one of these organisations
They live by the strict code of no backstabbing and no cruelty towards civilians. But when it comes to enemies, they strike decisively and with deadly force. Victory is meaningless without respect. They aim to improve conditions of civilians. However, that feels like an empty claim. Since the gangs just fight each other from the day Gilmesh left.
They wear improvised Heavy, knight-like armor accented with deep red markings. Their leadership is strong and their reputation grows legendary. Creating beter living conditions for themselves and their environment.
HELENE OF CYPRIA
A cult devoting their lives to Rhamnousia, the balancer of life, dark-faced goddess, daughter of justice.
THE PEOPLE OF SCOLTO
A sentient race of bubbly creatures with tentacles for legs, arms and a head resembling octopi.
These creatures have a strong connection to a god-like energy or entity and space-time itself. They receive a continuous flow of premonitions and visions.
They are however tragically confused about how to interpret them. As a unified people they spend ages and timeless effort into deciphering these premonitions and visions. However they always seem to overcomplicate or misinterpret them. Resulting in a 99% failure of actually predicting the future.
"they are fun to have around, but quite useless."
The only way to get the unfiltered information is either by overhearing them talk in their sleep or directly linking oneself to their spiritual core.
Linking to their brain would not help, since their brain is the cause of all the confusion they have.
They often react surprised, even tho they know everything that wil happen before it happens.
