Humanity's Seven

== Overview ==
The Army of Humanity - better known as the Army of Seven, or Humanity's Seven - were a collection of immortal heroes from past conflicts who emerged from seclusion and pledged themselves to the service of mankind during the Long War. They would elect Khamsa as their leader, for they held in common a great hatred for the Godhunter, on whom they blamed the apocalypse. 
== Founding ==
The original three members of the Seven were Khamsa, Paralance, and Miyamoto Kai. When Emperor Marnard took the Southern Throne, there was no need for Lord Paralance to remain. His oath of loyalty had been to Bolgar, not the Kingdom of Ragnarok, and he attempted to swear himself to Khamsa instead. Khamsa refused his oath, upsetting him, but Khamsa took pains to insist that he would be happy to have Paralance as a friend and companion. It had nothing to do with him, Khamsa added, but he was unwilling to ever have a follower again. Kai was swift to join them, for had been increasingly disturbed with the direction Ragnarok was taking under the leadership of General Vilhelms Eglītis. Kai knew Khamsa and Paralance, and respected Khamsa greatly. The two shared the bond of having lost their loved ones to the Deep Ones, and all three were immortal warriors. 
Not far from the Thunderdome, Annakiya of Aglazdere had a similar idea. She had defected from the Empire of Shangare along with Toranna and the Meadowguard. Prior to departing for good, she visited Whisperwind Asylum, Aglazdere's foremost prison to which she still had access, and freed Serghei Bran, the infamous vampire who had been locked away for over half a century. The idea had been presented to Toranna by Tolumvire, who though that Bran could be wielded as a savage weapon for the cause of mankind. 
Meanwhile, Khamsa insisted on trying to find the New Atlantis, which he had heard about from Marnard. Kai, who could fly and swim, aided him in this endeavor. To Khamsa's grief, the ship was found, but refused to make landfall. As a vampire, he could not cross the waves to speak with anybody aboard. Kai relayed messages back and forth, and once the New Atlantis was clear about what Khamsa intended to do, Admiral Aric Vere sent him another warrior - Prince Vamnas Vuhlanath of Atlantis. And so three became four. 
The two groups would meet in the Sky Ship Graveyard, the no man's land between Aglazdere and the Final Empire. Recognizing their shared purpose, they would unify under the name of the Army of Humanity, and elect Khamsa as their leader with Annakiya as his unofficial second-in-command. 
There were nonetheless tensions between them. Within Khamsa's faction, Paralance and Kai disliked each other. Khamsa, Paralance, and Kai failed to trust Toranna at all, associating her with Tolumvire. Toranna did get along with her fellow displaced royalty, Vamnas, but otherwise considered herself loyal to Annakiya. Serghei Bran was hated by all of them, and was kept on a close leash by Annakiya. He only respected Khamsa, a fellow vampire, who came to an understanding with him.
