The Long War

## Mankind

The coalition led by Pyndran of Aurum. Mankind's ostensible defenders were fractured and filled with big egos, having no internal unifying principle.

At the close of the war, the so-called "big three" leaders of mankind upon whom the fate of the world rested were Knil of Tyrsea, Damaris of Ostoria, and Isaac Icarus.

* The Kingdom of Aurum
	+ Ruled by King Pyndran
		- Slain by Vilhelm Eglītis
		- Aurum survives as a nation but emerges scarred and diminished
* The Kingdom of Dao
	+ Ruled by Queen Auradine
		- Overthrown and destroyed by her own government
		- Dao survives as a nation but remains badly ravaged by Tri-dent
* The Kingdom of Gandoral
	+ Ruled by King Bron Ironstout
		- Ambushed by the ratfolk and killed by Cendehl Rahk
		- Gandoral dissolves as a nation
* The Land of the Fey
	+ Ruled by King Odilon Roy
		- Shot in the back by Isaac Icarus
		- The Land of the Fey remains despoiled and corrupted, likely for centuries to come
		- In the dark heart of the Land of the Fey, there is a place still inhabited by the Perfect Images and Rootlings of Ghatanothoa, a place where all who look upon it are horrifically mummified, trapped in a mockery of immortality

* The Final Empire
	+ Ruled by Emperor Marnard Ningel
		- Assassinated by Rann Fery
		- The Final Empire as a nation is destroyed, and the surviving Lords split the remains between them
		- The oceans on the shore of the FInal Empire roil with continual storms, with tsunamis battering the coast as tectonic plates shift; the seas are nontraversable as reality and the fundamental laws of physics have gone mad, and those who enter are either destroyed or are subordinated to the will of the physcic imprint left by Great Cthulhu *called Tholorhee*

* The Conglomerate of Ledge
	+ Ruled by Immortal Guardian Jack Hinamen
		- Killed by the Godhunter to shame the retreating nation of Ledge to rejoin the war
		- Ledge survives the Long War but its long-term survival as a nation is in doubt
* The Kingdom of Naz
	+ Ruled by King Knil of Tyrsea
		- Killed by the Godhunter for sealing the gates of Dragonsmouth
		- The people of Naz retreat to the Northern Dome, renamed Dragonsmouth, and seal off the gates
		- In the Plateau of Leng, there is a great pillar of fire and heat, which if approached, captures the mind of onlookers and traps them there until they die of dehydration
		- The serpents of Valusia impart a lethal venom that cannot be resisted

* The Kingdom of Ostoria
	+ Ruled by Queen Damaris Tkerekin
		- Overthrown and assassinated by Tyko Laaksonen
		- Ostoria crumbles as a nation, replaced once more with the numerous clans
* The Republic of Nadezhda
	+ Ruled by Marshal Malrog
		- Dies of old age
		- Nadezhda survives as a nation, but exists as a ghost of its former glory, even weaker then it was as a colony of the Reich
* The Empire of World's End
	+ Ruled by Emperor Arthur Ramander
		- Dragged into sunlight by Roger Adler and staked through the heart by Khariton Markov
		- The Godhunter and Warmaster Abbascia, in accordance with Khamsa's last wishes, force the majority of the Empire's vampires to return to their coffins to slumber and await the next great war, with Warmaster Abbascia remaining awake to hunt down the holdouts and rebels
		- In the heart of Scarabantia, the capital of World's End, there is an well of apathy and destruction, where those who become unable to leave and simply allow their soul to wither away

## The Gods

The coalition led by Vilhelms Eglītis. Though some were known to say that Idas Gharna was the true dark heart of the alliance.

In the dwindling days of the war, the only leaders desperate enough to make a stand for the gods were Grand Druid Romilly Mag Raith and the so-called Nadezhdan traitors, Roger Adler and Khariton Markov.

* The Empire of Aglazdere
	+ Ruled by Padishah Shams al-Din Samara
		- Kills himself after losing his god and being bested by the Godhunter
		- Having lost its god and its king, Aglazdere fractures into independent city states
* The Empire of Caprakan
	+ Ruled by Emperor Bolom Dz'acab
		- Tries to flee his crumbling empire on the back of his dragon, which turns on him and throws him to his death over the ocean
		- Caprakan collapses as a nation, and its surviving people form tribes and petty kingdoms around the former Nodes

* The Kingdom of Guilddon
	+ Ruled by King Talfryn Goronwy
		- Torn apart by a mob of his own citizens
		- The much-ravaged Guilddon survives as a nation and elects a new monarch
		- In the capital of Guildhall, the rulers of Guilddon are unable to remember Byatis or the Long War; nor is anyone who enters the capital

* The Kingdom of Oddrentyn
	+ Ruled by King Cendehl Rahk
		- Trapped and eventually starves to death in a cave-in caused by Perduke
		- The Kingdom of Oddrentyn is destroyed
		- The entirely of what composed the territory of Darguzze has been torn from the earth to create a second moon, leaving a country-sized crater ravaged by nightmares, eldritch lighting, beams of time-warping light projected from the second moon, wild magic, and continual earthquakes
* The Kingdom of Qogor
	+ Ruled by the Triumverate of Qogor
		- The Kingdom of Qogor is destroyed
		- The entirely of what composed the territory of Darguzze has been torn from the earth to create a second moon, leaving a country-sized crater ravaged by nightmares, eldritch lighting, beams of time-warping light projected from the second moon, wild magic, and continual earthquakes

* The Kingdom of Ragnarok
	+ Ruled by Commander Vilhelms Eglītis
		- Killed in a duel by the Godhunter
		- Ragnarok survives in a hollow and diminished state, little better then the warring kingdoms of the former Final Empire, and the Godhunter forces the Order of the Einherjar depart on a penitent crusade, in accordance with Khamsa's wishes
		- Though Ghroth *called Wormwood* is slain, not far from the city of Ragnarok itself is an expanse of territory known as the Nothing, nascent but still capable of growth, from which Worms of Ghroth still emerge, seeking heroes and relics to consume so that they might expand the Nothing
* The Confederacy of Rhomduil
	+ Ruled by Queen Idas Gharna
		- Loses her powers after the death of Ubbo-Sathla and is fed to the Black Goat by Romilly Mag Raith
		- The Godhunter forces the surviving dark elves to abandon the monarchy and return to their confederate days
		- Mydra Tura is razed to the ground and the city of Chara Hlanead is established as the shrine city of Eilistraee
		- The population of the entire world is beset by distracting urges to take transgressive or liberating actions, easily compelled and frightened, and many humanoids are born as mythos satyrs or outer mutants; indeed the dark young of Shub-Niggurath and worse still stalk the darkest forests of former Celymnaia
		- All of Rhomduil and Celymnaia is coated in undulating, slick protoplasm, through which all must wade
* The Republic of New Arendur
	+ Ruled by Pontiff Leo Calixtus
		- Plunges to his death when the Arendurian train derails off a bridge
		- New Arendur turns under the leadership of Isaac Icarus, and switches sides against the great old ones
		- New Arendur survives as a diminished and inwardly-turned nation
* Swamp House
	+ Ruled by Emperor Laurent-Nicodeme Mathias Romilly
		- Succumbs steadily to failing health, comatose by the time the Godhunter arrives, dies of old age not long afterwards
		- Swamp House survives as a nation, greatly demoralized and in decline
* The Kingdom of Utgard
	+ Ruled by Kaiserin Irmingard Abeln
		- Succumbs to the Wendigo plague and is euthanized by the Godhunter
		- Guttered out by the Wendigo plague, many of Utgard's people return to their home clans while the city itself is doomed to be fought over by those same clans
		- The Kingdom of Utgard is constant wracked by an immense winter storm, in which Ithaqua's howls can still be heard, compelling listeners to commit acts of cannibalism
