Ontemâz

**Ontemâz**, formerly **Luril**, is the fourth planet from the sun of the Jerde System. It is a planet of lush, cool rainforests.

It is the home of the orange-furred Lurillim race and the colourful Ontemâzei humanoids.

## History

During the Sarmelonid Era, it was ruled by the Konjor Supercorporation. During Hajogana's time, it was divided into two colonies: West Luril, under Vannikon and later him; and East Luril, under the Kuelgon Tasunon nek Abokfasur.

Vannikon was preceded by three other governors: Kuladrib, Praso Bonshes, and Peran-djib.

Kuladrib was a cruel master who attracted thousands of tourists by torturing clones. His six vice-governors were Qohaloz, Vilyrad, Drohez, Gozaquer, Voruldi, and Mez, who fought each other. Eventually, Gozaquer killed Kuladrib in a fit of rage and ruled as governor before he and the other five vice-governors were slain by Praso Bonshes.

Praso Bonshes loved to build shopping malls and a monorail network. His vice governors were Mahang and Zrinakerot, both of which were females.

Peran-djib was a benevolent Governor who won the Lurillim's trust for his benevolence. Years after his death, the Lurillim prayed for Peran-djib to return from the heavens to save them.

Vannikon's vice governors were Hajogana and Vaisür'é; and Tasunon's vice governors were Talekran (a female Kuelgon) and Liadetson/Ljadechon (a male Novantirna captured as a prisoner of war).

After the Kyrvotin Invasion, Ontemaz was heavily ruined, torn between the Obsidian Knights and Konjor claimants who sought to create new Supercorporate empires with Luril as their capital.

The Obsidian Knights unleashed whatever clones they were unable to liberate upon the weakened Konjor rulers, sending many Konjor warlords and their henchpeople to be devoured by mobs of savage dolls. Those whom they did liberate were modified so their minds were exactly that of a human's, and their lifespans extended to almost a hundred years, to make them more Vozonid and to establish puppet states to restore order to that chaotic world. Later, some Vozonid aristocrats migrated to Luril's jungles to avoid arrest by their emperor Zannoz, and as they battled Konjor warlords, Obsidians, and clones, they were defeated by Zannoz's allies, Bujan and Siangwaan, who set up colonies to protect the Lurillim and other survivors.

It later became the capital of the Ontemâzei Empire after a great bombardment. When the empire collapsed, a fleet of humans slaughtered thousands of Ontemazei and put the rest of the inhabitants to slavery. Only the Lurillim were allowed to remain freemen for helping the humans defeat the Ontemazei Empire.

Thousands of years after the collapse of the Ontemazei Empire, Ontemaz was ruled by a federal republic. It fell apart in a civil war, with the Lurillim nations forming their own coalitions to defend themselves from the wars around the planet.

In 800 AT, the Porasonids found out that the planet Ontemaz was trapped in a backwards state, torn between hundreds of warring nations. The Porasonids went on expeditions to help some of these countries rebuild, as islands of civilisation in a sea of war and anarchy. Although the expeditions stopped at 1200 AT due to Thralondian and Rabydosian invasions, the Porasonid protectorates built their own fleets and armies to defend Porashon and its allies form invasion. It was due to the help of these Ontemazei that helped Bujan have the numbers and weaponry to defeat the Wannaenid Empire's forces on their island.

## Time in Ontemaz

A day in Luril lasts for 32 hours, which is divided into two halves of sixteen hours, and each hour lasts for sixty Jerdiskar minutes. The fact that a Lurillim day lasts longer than an Earth day makes it a popular haven for tourists.

The 24th hour (8 pm) corresponds to 6 pm in Earth time, and the 32nd (read as 0:00 am) hour is midnight when a new planetary day begins. However, the native Lurillim begin their days at sunrise, roughly at 8 am.

## Trivia

* During Konjor rule, Luril was also used as a war zone, when gangs of tourists bring their weapons and vehicles to destroy each other and any tourist caught in the crossfire. One frequent date for those murder-sprees was at Purulli (the Vozonid new year), chosen as an insult to the Vozonid Empire for taking over their affairs.
