Feckinge

## **General Information**

Feckinge or alternatively, The Country of Fecks, in the common tongue, is a Nation in North-West Rathnir, it is a small Nation however it serves as the seat of all power for Fecks and Hackicianists alike. Initially settled by Jack Hackett, The Holy Father, Feckoffe, The capital of Feckinge had fell into utter ruin. it was only until recently that the ailing lands of Feckoffe were rediscovered and re-settled by a nomadic group of Fecks. Understanding the ancient carvings in the stone, the Feck Nomads discovered the lost city of Feckoffe, a shining example of the ancient culture and discipline of the Nitofeck people, so much so, that they too took the name of Nitofeck.

## **Theology**

Feckinge, follows the religion of Hackicianism and is the seat for all theocratic influence pertaining to Hackicianism for Panrathnir. The leader of Feckinge, known as the Delcholik, Has his Palace in Feckoffe, they rule by divine mandate of Jack Hackett, The Holy Father, and is leader of the Hackician Church. The half of the year in which the Delcholik is born determines which of The Holy Father's sons the new Delcholik will make his pact with, if they are born in the first half of the year, they will make a covenant with Peter, God of Compassion and Empathy. If born in the second half of the year, it will be Logan, God of Logic and Efficiency who guides them through life. The title of Delcholik is both an elected, and hereditary office. assuming that the current Delcholik isn't expunged from office, their chosen heir will be made Delcholik. If the current Delcholik is dismissed, every citizen living in Feckoffe will be given opportunity to put in their name for the ballot along with their running mate, then the General public will cast their votes, anyone can vote for any contender in the ballot but themselves and their Prime Minister. Once elected, the Hackician crown will be given to the new Delcholik by the former, if the previous Delcholik has been exiled or executed, the ceremony will take place on a holy site between only the former and current Prime Minister, the new Delcholik and the Officiator, who is usually a high ranking member of the church.

## **Language**

The Inhabitants of Feckinge speak the language of Nitofeckvyr or, in the common tongue, Language of the Old Fecks, it seems spending time in the ancient lands of the Nitofeck Gradually brings you to an understanding of their language, this, unfortunateley meant that all recollection of Otifeckvyr, Language of the Modern Fecks, is gone. It seems impossible to be able to know both Nitofeckvyr and Otifeckvyr, this, incidentally caused a breakdown of relations, and a subsequent war between the Nitofecks and Otifecks, this led to a Nitofeck victory and what followed was a tragedy for the Otifecks.

## **History and Conflict**

The only recorded conflict in Feck History is the Nitofeck / Otifeck Conflict. This series of unfortunate events started when the Otifecks, Hailing from the Fabled continent of Dunfecki, and their Government were growing impatient for Taxes and Reports from the Feck Nomads. They did not, however, know that the now Nitofecks had re-discovered the ancient Feck capital on Rathnir, Feckoffe. It seemed that spending time in the ancient lands of the Nitofeck warps your mind to become accustomed to their, and only their language. This led to a breakdown in talks between the Nitofeck and the Otifeck as they literally couldn't. communicate.

### **The Nitofeck / Otifeck Conflict**

The Nitofeck / Otifeck Conflict broke out when the Otifeck Government Dispatched an Otifeck Supremacist Emissary named Peghan to where they had heard reports of settlements and cities full of Nitofeck. When Peghan reached Feckoffe, he was horrified to see that the Nitofeck Guards, not knowing who he was or what he was doing in their lands, did not allow him into Feckoffe. This resulted in Peghan drawing his sword and cleaving the head off of the Nitofeck guard. The other guard, outraged by this great trespass on his co-worker, immediately knocked him out and bought him into the city to be maimed and tortured. Peghan's tongue was torn, not cut, out of his mouth to stop his complaining. he was then lead to the edge of Dorvita and pushed off the cliff. this broke every bone in his body and left him in agony. the Nitofeck then made him write a note explaining what had happened and sent him back to Syrisha, the Otifeck capital.

### **Declaration of War and Early Stages of the Conflict**

The conflict proper began when the Most Senior Generals of the Armed Services (MSGAS) decided to coordinate an amphibious attack on the city. 20 Manned and Armed Warships (MAWs) as well as 10 Manned Battleships (MBs) were dispatched with King Muselime personally leading the conflict. Muselime, much like Peghan was of the belief that the Otifeck were superior to the Feck Nomads and Nitofeck, he came there, not to lead the battle, but to make personally sure that each and every Nitofeck was Murdered. As he was leading the Warships into battle, he signalled for the Warwolves to be fired. The Warships that held the Warwolves were too far from the shore for it to have an effect, Genius that he was, however, Muselime had calculated that the slight adjustments to the mechanism that he ordered would perfectly go over the harbour wall and kill the citizens within, he was right. 12 Guards were killed as well as 1 Mother and her 2 Children.

### **Latter Stages of the Conflict and Resolution.**

It was the Delcholik, Casolic ordered their counterattack. The cliff-face of Dorvita was detonated with controlled explosives, this crushed all 20 of the MAWs and 3 of the MBs. This devastating sneak attack Killed Muselime and 2100 of the 3000 invading force. Without leadership and fearful of the looming Peak of the Dorvita, which now lay unsupported, the last 900 ran into the city for safety, it was here that a mass rain of arrows killed them all and left them in a pool of blood. what ships hadn't been destroyed were then boarded by the entirety of the Nitofeck force, a total of 11245 soldiers, as well as their own vessels which had been docked in the harbour to avoid destruction and set sail to their old homeland of Otidunfecki. What ensued can only be described as a massacre, the larger, but unexpecting and defending Otifeck was glad to see that their ships were coming home, it was when they were within the range of half a kilometre did they unveil their Nitofeck ships. A hail of arrow fire landed on the guards and any unfortunate citizens who were in the port of Abarysha. the invading Nitofeck swept through the continent, killing any Otifeck they saw. this ended in a Genocide of the Otifeck people and the Sinking of their continent.
