Welcome to Gaia! ::

Story line:

The empire has been defeated by the concentrated efforts of the rebels, and the tattered reminants of their forces disband and disintegrate.

But a new, greater threat looms on the horizon, sinister and deadly...Invasion.
as soon as the oppressed populace been freed from the yoke of the empire, others get wind of the empires weakening powers. They are coming expecting a battle, not only from the empire, but between themselves, and the ensuing power struggle threatens the life of every pesant, farmer, servant, and merchant that lives on the large landmass that the empire controlled.

Now the cities are consolidating their power into city-states, but are unaware of the threat looming.

Inside the no-mans-land, some roving bands of bandits and criminals roam the countryside, forming their own fifedoms, and imposing their own laws.

There are 7 major cities in the land, containing more than 8,000 people:

1.) Di
2.) Ly
3.) Han
4.) Ut
5.) Shi
6.) Lo
7.) Wen

It also happens to have a recently discovered dungeon below a centuries-old mage tower that has let loose creatures on the countryside that have been killing many innocent creatures. It also appears that there are several ancient artifacts (well, rumours of) buried in the mage towers and the mage school. There are 5 mage towers in the former Empire of tears.

Many of the mage towers were destroyed because of the mage school's alliance with the empire.

Will you go to help the countrymen? Investigate the dungeon? Join the criminals and get rich? Or will you consolidate your power over the land and fight all comers to the death?

Information about the Smaller Cities
*You will see information on the big cities on their first posts.

By the numbers:

1.) Rapidly Growing small town trading mostly stone, wild game, supplies for travelers. Some crime, not too bad, but some of the surrounding farmers are being attacked.
2.) Foothills of mountains, very small. Nothing important except for a derilect and scoured mage tower.
3.) Same as number 2
4.) Major farming place, recently taken over by criminal warlords.
5.) Same as number 4.
6.) Same as number 5. Small town number 5 and six are at war right now, but have a shortage of availible men. Expect hostilities to become increasngly more common and violent.

There you go.

I'm building a list of the cities now. Please hold on until it is finished.
