Arem

The **Arem** are a religious order of warriors, which act as holy guardians of the Precursor religion as well as guards of the Emperor of the Shanorin Dynasty. Should Humanity be awakened, they will then become their direct protectors. Only Chasa are allowed to become Arem, as they are the only species considered holy enough to serve Humanity directly.

The Arem as an order can trace its roots back hundreds of years, with the earliest record of the order dating to ME 201, where they served simply as the royal guard of House Esenrius. Following the conversion of Esenrius into the Shanorin Dynasty in ME 264, the Arem were converted into their function as a religious order, which continues to this day. The modern Arem share little with the original order aside from name, and most of the order's original practices have been lost to time. The leader of the Arem is known as the Caran, and is appointed by the Emperor every 5 years. The Caran is a position of both great power and respect in Chasan society, and holds a spot on the Dynastic Council. Nalaea Facaryn is the current Caran, having been appointed by Abdiel in ME 340.

An Arem warrior goes through a rigorous 4 years of training before they can be selected. New groups of trainees are selected every 5 years, with 25 prospects selected. These prospects must have previously served in the Dynastic Military in some capacity. At the end of the 4 years of training, 10 are selected to become Arem. Because of this lengthy selection process, Arem are often considered some of the best warriors on Narus. Arem are primarily given missions of great importance, and are more often than not expected to die on these missions. Thus, Arem are only sparingly used, and spend most of their time guarding the Dynastic Palace and the Emperor. To date, the only known missions undertaken by the Arem have been a handful of attempted assassinations of Dilya Shanorin.
Nail Mole

**Nail Moles** are beasts that are used for the first test of the Buildon Exam.

They are aggressive animals that attack builders to defend themselves. They can withstand great force of a hammer without dying. The only vigor that can kill them is dark vigor.

## History

In ancient times, nail moles were used as nails to build homes for people. They were used as a test for possible participants in the Buildon Exam, because they test the individual's strength, speed and precision at the same time. In modern times, this practice is consider archaic to test participants.

Vel Agorix

**Vel Agorix** was a Lepus explorer and navigator who oversaw the exploration of Nix on behalf of the Montiac Empire. His expeditions marked the first, and to date only, Montiac expedition into the western continents of Nix and Viridi.

Agorix was born in the coastal town of Aballo, in the Empire's Capitus region. His father was a former cartographer in the Montiac Navy, and operated a small fishing boat when Agorix was young. Here, Agorix and his older brother Manius learned the basics of navigation. Agorix initially had no interest in cartography, and instead worked at Aballo's harbour as a shipwright. However, following his brothers death to Nilotici in ME 209, he took it upon himself to carry on his father's legacy and joined the Navy in ME 211.

Agorix spent the next decade carrying out smaller chartering expeditions on behalf of the Empire. When the Anur were encountered in ME 217, Agorix was one of the many explorers pushing for a Navy sponsored expedition to the Anurian homelands. He continued this push, until he and a handful of other explorers were finally selected to head the expedition of Nix and Viridi in ME 220. However, in the midst of the Empire's election cycle, the expedition went through numerous changes and trimmings, until it was decided that Agorix would be granted only a single ship for his expedition. Although angered, Agorix went ahead with the expedition and set sail from Avueni on the 30th of Aquila, ME 222. During his nearly year long expedition Agorix heavily studied the Onca of Viridi, and was in the process of studying the Corvans when he and his expedition disappeared.

The exact nature of Agorix's disappearance is debated to this day. Initial theories assumed that Agorix had abandoned the Empire in favour of living in the wilds of Nix, but remains found by Anurians some years later have largely disproved this. The most recognized theory is that, while returning from the Corvans to the expedition's camp, Agorix and his men were ambushed and taken by Latrans. After this, they were likely killed and either eaten or skinned by the Dog-folk. Following this, the Empire halted further exploration of Nix and Viridi.
Hawpway

**Hawpway** was a Corvan who likely lived sometime between ME 87 and ME 132. According to Corvan legend, Hawpway united his people, then enslaved by the Chelydra, to rise up against the Lizard-folk, thus ending their servitude. His life after this is unclear. Some Corvans say he died in battle, becoming a martyr for his people. Others, however, say he united the Corvans into a single, short-lived state that collapsed following his death. No matter his true fate, present-day Hawpway is seen as a god-like figure for his people.

Hawpway's existence is debated heavily among Montiac historians studying Nix, with many believing him to actually be a number of different Corvans who rebelled around the same time.

Odnons

**Odnons** are a species of large flying insects, native to all continents on Narus. Odnons are characterized by a pair of large eyes, two pairs of strong, transparent wings, and an elongated body. Odnons bodies can grow up to two feet in length, and their wingspan can reach up to 10 inches. Odnons are extremely agile in flight, but are relatively slow moving when using their legs and therefore will rarely leave the air.

Odnons are predatory insects from birth. Their agility in the air allows them to conduct aerial ambushes against their prey which consists of smaller insects and, rarely, juvenile Odnons. Odnons hunt in packs of 3-5, and live in colonies of upwards of 50. Odnons have a short lifespan, usually living just a year.

Odnons are commonly hunted by Onca in Viridi, and their wings are used as a decorative item by many other species.

Montiac Navy

The **Montiac Navy** (***Montiaca Classi*** in Monti) comprises the naval forces of the Montiac Military, the armed forces of the Montiac Empire. Founded in ME 81, the Montiac Navy is the largest of its kind, currently possessing 253 ships capable of sailing, and has roughly 27 currently in construction. This large number of ships is largely thanks to the Montiac Navy's exhaustive maintenance and upgrading procedures, which allows ships to continue operating far past what would be expected. The oldest active Montiac ship is the *Ad Mittenia* (lit. *Return to Sender*), which entered service in ME 197. The Montiac Navy has 33 dedicated docks across Montiac territory, and a further 9 in Gronum, Tithos, and Clan Frayvin. The Montiac Navy is often called the "Purple Fleet" due to it being the only branch of the Montiac Military to continue using Montiac Purple.

## Current role

The main duties of the Montiac Navy are defence of the Empire against external threats, and to act as a projection of power. The majority of Montiac naval activity is currently focused around the waters near the Shanorin Dynasty. However, with the Emergence of the Lyrac in recent weeks, much of its power has been diverted to evacuation of cities near hives, as well as fighting the Lyrac wherever and however possible. This had led to Montiac ships being combined into several battlegroups comprised of tens of ships.

Montiac ships mix together Montiac and Human technology, with the latter mainly being used for weaponry and propulsion. This has largely negated the need for dedicated oarsmen.

## Ship classes

The Montiac Navy primarily constructs larger ships, though smaller ships are still seen in support roles. Lighter ships are solely armed with projectile weapons, while heavy ships have both projectile and ramming capabilities. The Montiac Navy divides their ships into heavy, light, and artillery roles. Heavy ships make use of projectiles and heavy armor to dispatch light foes, and have a front ram and a marine compliment to breach and board heavy ships. Light ships follow behind heavy ones, providing support in projectile barrages. Finally, artillery ships stay far back from the fighting and use heavy projectiles to engage heavy ships from a distance.

### Heavy warships

* Hexa
* Quadrima

### Light warships

* Trixa
* Quinrima
* Hemia
Chamael

The **Chamael** were a species of Lizard-folk who once inhabited the Domunian Peninsula, primarily in the nation of Isara. A distant relative of the Petrans, the Chamael integrated with Lepusian society at the start of the Empire's expansion, and therefore little knowledge of their traditions or culture survived them. The only true surviving relics was the city of Chaxuklas, one of Isaras three major cities, founded by the Chamael sometime in the late Awakening Era. Following the Montiac Civil War and Montiac-Isaran War, Isara folded into the Empire. Chaxuklas lied on the border between Isara and the Empire, and was largely destroyed by the fighting. Most Chamael migrated away from the city, the few who stayed unable to rebuild amidst the chaos of Isaras collapse. Chaxuklas was later resettled by Lepusians, who built over most of the Chamael architecture.

The Chamael were already in a decline before the wars, mainly due to the rapid growth of Lepusian society. The majority of adult Chamael were conscripted by Isara, mostly used on the front lines as scouts. Following the end of the Montiac-Isaran war, Chamael residing in the territory ceded to Montiacos were used as shock troops against Appius Salvian's forces. As the Chamael weren't built for traditional hand-to-hand fighting, these shock troops suffered catastrophic losses. After the collapse of Isara the Chamael were left to to fend for themselves by the Empire, which was more interested in helping its own kind. Unable to properly feed and take care of their remaining population without assistance, the Chamael faced a mass famine, and by ME 88 all Chamael had either starved to death or been killed by Lepus raiders.

The Chamael had a unique ability to change the color of their skin based on their surroundings. The Isaran military tried to adapt this to regular armor using Chamael leather. Although it failed to actively change color, these early attempts would eventually pave the way for camouflage in most modern armies.
Ket Zavag

**Ket Zavag** (ME 132-147) was a Nibayr diplomat who was vital in the integration of the species into the Montiac Empire. Residing in the southern Nibayr homelands, Zavag's home of Skrik was among the first contacted by the Montiac Empire, and he was the first of his species to learn their language. Zavag was a charismatic and highly intelligent member of the Nibayr species.

In the year ME 140, Zavag was summoned to Montiacos, the capital of the Montiac Empire, where he met with Emperor and his council. Despite initial tensions, partly due to the fear some showed the Nibayr, a peaceful dialogue did unfold once both parties realized they had similar wants. Emperor Opiter Silo wished to peacefully integrate the species, while Zavag wished to join the Empire and preserve his species' culture. Zavag first worked to integrate his community into the Empire successfully explaining the advantages a protector could have for his people. Though banditry wasn't a then issue for the Nibayr, the protection from wildlife, plus the infrastructure brought by the Empire, was enough. Skrik was peacefully absorbed into the Empire.

Over the next seven years, Zavag tirelessly worked to facilitate the assimilation of the Nibayr into the Montiac Empire. His role extended beyond translation duties; he became a chief negotiator, securing essential guarantees for certain villages, bringing the Empire to new communities, and ensuring the protection of Nibayr cultural values. These negotiations paved the way for a more inclusive and understanding relationship between the two civilizations. Zavag received little personal compensation from the Empire, and relied on donations from his people to live. He lived out of a small shack on the outskirts of Skrik, but would spend most time travelling with Montiac legions. He also asked for little, aside from food. Zavag was quite large for his height, and was known to eat enormous portions. Legions would have to bring separate rations just for Zavag. He particularly enjoyed cheese, and is likely the reason for the longstanding stereotype of Nibayr enjoying cheese.

Zavag passed in his sleep on the 9th of what was then Junis in the city of Eryx, then planning a mission to the western Calastian islands. The month was soon renamed to Zavagius, forever honoring him. At the time of his death, the majority of Nibayr communities had peacefully integrated into the Montiac Empire, with only a few remaining on the islands of the Western Calastian mainland. By the end of the 2nd century, these were integrated. In honor of Zavag's pivotal role, a statue was erected in the heart of Tar, commemorating his contributions to the unity of the Nibayr and the Montiac Empire.
Societal Tiers

**Societal Tiers** is a level of categorization used by the Montiac Exploration Committee to estimate the technological and societal advancement of a species. There are five tiers, with tier zero being the most advanced and tier five being the least.

## Tier 5

A tier 5 species is one just beginning to show basic signs of higher intelligence. All species were tier 5 at the time of their release from Habitats. The Lyrac and Araxi are thought to still be tier 5

## Tier 4

A tier 4 species is one just beginning to construct tools, form tribes, hunt/farm, and communicate basically with others.

## Tier 3

A tier 3 species is one that has begun forming its own culture/nation, make more advanced tools, weapons, and armor, construct complex buildings, and speak in a complex spoken or signed language

## Tier 2

A tier 2 species is able to make use of Human technology for various uses, and has an empire of considerable size.

## Tier 1

A tier 1 species is able to create technology on the level of Humanity by themselves, without the need for backwards engineering of Human technology. No tier 1 species currently exist on Narus

## Tier 0

A tier 0 species has the ability to harness all of Narus's natural resources, build weapons and constructs beyond imagination, and travel the Legan freely. Humanity was, and is, the only species to reach tier 0. It's likely that, assuming any Humans remain in Legan, they have advanced beyond a Tier 0 species.
Tarron Shanorin

**Tarron Shanorin** (ME 275-326) was the second Emperor of the Shanorin Dynasty. He inherited the throne from his father at the age of 12, and ruled for 39 years until his death in ME 326.

Tarron was a Precursorism zealot, and based much of his rule around centring Shanorin society around the religion. This included bringing in mandatory prayer hours, introducing a societal ranking system for different species, making the city of Kurial into a holy site, and lowering the Dynasty's relations with the Montiac Empire. This was all done at the expense of halting expansion, and resulted in the loss of Habitat 000 to the Empire. The Habitat remains a boiling point for tension between the two states, and many modern Chasa speak negatively of Tarron because of this.

Tarron had two sons, twins Vaeril and Aywin, in ME 306, and spent the majority of his last years in rule teaching them the ways of Precursorism. He was quoted many times stating his anger at having twins, as it required him to choose only one to succeed him and was worried their relationships would be strained because of this. Vaeril was against the perfectionism in Chasan society, and wished to change it as well as the Dynasty's government. On the other hand, Aywin was a hardline supporter of their religion, more so than even his father, and wished to lead his people to glory against the Empire. Against the judgement of his advisors and Hosanna, Tarron selected Vaeril to succeed him just days before his death. He noted in his journal that he saw Aywin as a better fit and natural leader, and thought he cared more for his people, but feared his violent tendencies would result in the Dynasty's destruction.

Tarron died in his sleep on the 29th of Tirifumox, ME 326, at the age of 51.
Lilprein

**Lilprein** (commonly known as **Nip**) is a hallucinatory narcotic created from the sheddings of sand whales, found in northern Meridian. The shed powder is combined into a small ball and boiled in water for 3 hours, after which it is taken out and shaved back down to powder and can be consumed. Lilprein has no expiry after its creation, but the strength of its effects will lessen over time.

Lilprein is consumed by rubbing it on ones skin where it is then absorbed over 15-20 minutes, at which point the high will wear off. Following the high, skin or fur will be oily and sticky, and require washing before Lilprein can be properly used again. Because of this, it's not uncommon to see addicts cover themselves in multiple layers at a time to extend the high for as long as possible. Efforts to consume Lilprein in other ways have failed.

Lilprein has been consumed by Folk for thousands of years, with its use thought to date back to the Awakening Era. Due to their residence it's most commonly used by citizens of the Shanorin Dynasty, specifically the Chasa. Lizard-folk, such as Nilotici and Petra, are unable to use Lilprein due to their scaled bodies.
Humanity

**Humanity** (often called **The Precursors**, and sometimes **The Old Gods**) were an ancient species of Primates who inhabited much, if not all, of Narus. Humanity was the dominant species on the planet for over 8 million years, before eventually departing the planet for unknown reasons. Many theorize this was due to either widespread conflict or some kind of natural disaster forcing them off the planet, although the true reason is ultimately unknown.

Humanity was a Tier 0 Civilization, being able to travel and colonize the Legan with ease. Although all Human satellites orbiting Narus have long since fallen back into the atmosphere, remains of Human settlements on the moon can still be seen through a telescope. Human technology such as weapons, vehicles, and medicine have been reversed engineered by many, though are hard to properly maintain. Because of this, it's become more common to mix Human technology with modern Folk technology, as seen in many Montiac ranged weapons.

Present-day, followers of Precursorism regard Humanity as gods, and some of their technology such as the Angels and the Habitats are seen as holy relics. As well, a fringe cult exists within the Empire which undertakes brutal sacrifices in an attempt to "summon" Humanity.

Iguan

The **Iguan** are a race of Lizard-folk inhabiting Viridi. They share the continent with the the Onca, the only other species on Viridi. The Iguan are an extremely hostile species, and seem to only care about the expansion of their empire. They have conducted raids against Oncan villages since the 1st century, slowly pushing the Oncan into Northern Viridi, where the thick Jatehle Jungle has protected the Cat-folk.

Due to their hostility, study on Iguan culture comes purely from stories told by Oncan slaves and survivors of the Larith Massacre.

## History

Iguan were released during the Fifth Awakening alongside the Oncan. It's not known why the Onca and Iguan were the only species released on Viridi. Popular theories suggest other Habitats being damaged by the expanding Jatehele, or an Angel interfering with the opening of other habitats.

Iguan began raids against the Oncan around ME 53. While only attacking isolated villages at first, Iguan raids moved to the more densely populated north around ME 79 as they continued expansion. These attacks at the heart of Oncan civilization prompted the Oncan to unite into four tribes; Patil, Laloc, Matal, and Ohtil. Though the southern tribe, Patil, launched a handful of counterattacks at Iguan settlements no major victory was achieved. According to enslaved Oncan, Iguan raids have fizzled out drastically with only a few taking place every year. Following the Larith Massacre, it's believed that they've begun expanding in other directions.

## Culture and Society

Iguan culture and society is perhaps the most mysterious on Narus. It is thought that they are either a hive minded species like the Lyrac, or ruled by a single monarch or emperor.

The Onca believe they operate as a single consciousness. Iguan have been described as moving in near perfect unison. Survivors of Larith also described Iguan redirecting their attacks without verbal or visual communication. Contradicting this theory, the Darkbrand Kantu was said to have once fought a highly skilled Iguan acting as its own.

Three Iguan corpses recovered from Larith were found to each carry a medallion displaying an Iguan adorned in jewelry, thought to be some kind of king or possibly deity. Two of the corpses carried a bundle of leaves tied together and a piece of thin charcoal. Both of these "books" had different symbols on them, thought to be Iguanese letters. It's thought that these were journals, further disproving the Iguan acting as a single consciousness.

### Language

Iguanese is the native language of the Iguan. It has no spoken words, instead utilizing hissing and facial expressions. Hisses are described as ranging in length and volume, with both likely distinguishing individual words.
Pellian Casca

**Pellian Casca** (ME 58-84) was a Lepus general and military leader, who acted as the Commander of the Montiac Military between ME 78 and 81. Casca succeeded Appius Salvian, who revolted against Montiacos during the Montiac-Isaran War and began the Montiac Civil War. Casca was chosen as commander due to his close relationship with King Nonus Montiaco, despite his lack of experience. Upon Montiacos defeat to the rebels in ME 81, Casca fled to the the southern island of Patox where he hid under the guise of a farmer.

Casca was hunted by the newly found Empire's Imperial Guard, and was declared an enemy of the state by Emperor Salvian. He was ultimately found and killed on the 15th of Decimus, ME 84. He was decapitated on his farm, with his body being thrown into the sea and his head paraded around the capital city of Montiacos.
Lemu

The **Lemu** are a species of Primates inhabiting the island of Simoto in Southern Meridian. The only intelligent species on Simoto, the Lemu have no natural predators on their island and have greatly benefitted from this in their evolution. However, despite being the islands only species, the Lemu seem to have barely advanced beyond a Tier 4 species. This is thought to be a consequence to the island having only a single Habitat, making technological development on an island with scarce resources difficult.

Only a handful of encounters with the Limu and Simoto have been recorded. Aside from accounts of Simoto and its inhabitants from Rek-Thalarri sailors, Anurians once visited the island while attempting to map Meridian. A small group was sent to the island on a row boat, first seeing the Lemu as they made landfall. The expeditions leader described the Lemu as curious, watching his group for their entire stay. Attempts to get close or communicate ended in the Lemu backing away. It was also noted that Anur without Human technology could get closer than those with it, suggest a fear (or possibly disdain) of technology.

It's thought that the Lemu live a peaceful coexistence on Simoto. The Anurians claimed to have seen continuous buildings from their landing point to the far mountains towards the island center, suggesting that the island could be densely populated. Because of the remoteness of Simoto, further exploration of the island has yet to occur.
Montiac Scholar

**Montiac Scholars** are scholars in the Montiac Empire who have completed a certain number of scholarly related achievements and served a certain amount of time in academics. Montiac Academics have the benefit of being able to release their writings to a greater audience and more notoriety, and the title itself is a great honor. The time required to be awarded the title varies amongst species and subject. Nibayr, dur to their short lifespan, may reach it the quickest.
Saturio Wolyn

Official portrait of Wolyn

**Saturio Wolyn** (né **Slavoj Wolyn**) is a Canisian politician and military veteran who currently serves on the High Council of the Montiac Empire, being first elected in ME 340.

Wolyn was born in the village of Kislas in ME 314. Then under occupation by Clan Grimsey, the village was razed around ME 320. Wolyn was able to escape with help from the Canisian resistence, but lost both of his parents to the Ursidae. Wolyn soon began fighting with the resistance, and became a central leader to both it and his species by ME 329. Because of this, Wolyn was instrumental in the Canisians accession to the Verona Pact during the Northern War against Clan Grimsey.

Along with hundreds of other Canisians, Wolyn joined the Montiac Army during the Miklagil offensive. Here, witnessing the atrocities and brutalities carried out by both sides, he gained a deep hatred for combat and war and left the military upon the defeat of Grimsey. Soon after this, he changed his first name to Saturio and ran for the position of Provincial Representative of the Province of Monua. Monua had gained a large influx of Canisian immigrants following the war, and Wolyn campaigned heavily on a smooth integration for the new species as well as focusing on rebuilding the province. He would be elected Representative in ME 334, and after a successful term he was selected by Proclus Carus to be one of his chosen runners for the High Council, which he became part of following Carus's election as Emperor in ME 340.

Although controversy initially surrounded the election of a non-Lepus High Councillor, Wolyn has proven to be immensely popular to Nibayr and Canisians, as well as citizens who are anti-war. Wolyn survived his first re-election in ME 345, and continues to serve on the High Council present-day.
