Plotline and History
This lovely race is found on the planet of Iaquezela. Iaquezela is about 60 percent water with 5 percent of ice. The capital of each region is located in the center of each region. The Western and Northern Ochresile capitals are found close to the water while the Southern and Eastern Ochresile capitals are found more in the center of nice open spaces.
Wetsern capital: Kanda - Located near the sea of Narma and the royal family of Myari rule the Western Region, a bit to the east of Kanda is the Tower of Eternal Night which is where the Royal Family dwells
Northern capital: Nionevris - Located near the Diamonde Sea and where the noble family of Tilochu rule the Northern region, a bit to the west of Nionevris is the Fortress of Ridaro where the Tilochu dwell
Eastern capital: Galeri - Located in the open plains of Sune'orine and where the Royal family of Thuriya rule. The Thuriya royals dwell in the castle of Minasdio which is located behind the lost forest of veila which has a hidden path.
Southern capital: Barad is located in the open meadow of Iecha, where the noble family of Ladireh dwell and rule. Barad is also home to the Ladire Castle where the noble family dwells.
The eastern region is covered with mountains and plains - with the Minasdio placed in a small side of the mountains - these are the most commonly known mountains here in Iaquezela which are called the Dertonas ( or the Dertona Mountains). The Dertonas are made up of about six different peaks. The highest one being Alodawn which stands at about 29,029'. Alodawn is located towards the middle of the rest of the five peaks.There are many rivers which run casually through Iaquezela. The one in the south is known as the Saltni River, which runs into the Diamonde Sea and ends up merging with the river in the North known as the Risy River. The river in the West is known as the Penca river and this river flows to the sea of Narma and merges with the Darkmoore River which is coming from the East.
Many places would seem to appear popular - there are three main ones. One of them is the Ruins of the Iralia Temple. This was the first ever temple built to worship all god/goddesses. A mural of each minor god and goddess is portrayed on the four walls while on the ceiling there was a mural of Nelaser herself. However since it is ruins... now all that is left are small pieces of the mural and soft bells chime around it. These ruins seem to be other worldly and seems to hold many energies in it. Many Ochresile believe the goddess Nelaser herself is there in spirit. Oftentimes a Gyrfalcon can be seen in the sky if you wait for the right moment.
The Forest of Nachtya (The forest of night if you will) is the most diverse and exotic place in Iaquezela. It ishome to grasslands, and rainforest alike with temperate weather and mild temperatures. The forest of Nachtya hold birds of plenty alongside other species which many may not ever know exist. This is one of the least explored regions in Iaquezela but one of the most desired. Rivers wind through it and gleam a brilliant light blue and turquoise color.
Lastly but not least is the Dertonas. The Dertonas are popular especially for a vacation for those who wish to summit or have an adventure out in the snow and such. The Dertonas have many trekking lodges wich small natives run for travelers and honestly many species (not just Ochresile though they mainly run the lodges) come through here. This is the one place one can get the closest to the northern lights and aurora borealis.
Iaquezela is home to many species and many wars too. While the last war ended with many lives lost and a field of flowers resembling roses of golden color and shimmering with a gemstone in the middle of each flower... which now is called the Sacred Meadow where the royal and many lives were lost in the War of All Time. Iaquezela has very little ice and frost though and when snow does fall, it is considered fun day and a blessing for all.
Iaquezela wasn't inhabited for the longest amount of time, just a land that had water, a hint of ice, and a bunch of forests, plains, and deserts. Rivers were carved through the land by earthquakes and the erupting of Alodawn, which sent massive glaciers melting and created the valleys. The smaller peaks came later on when the plates from under Iaquezela shifted and produced the smaller mountains. Evidently over time, small elf-like creatures were finding their home here on the planet. As time went on and the climate shifted dangerously between too hot and too cold, the creatures adapted. Elf ears faded to be replaced by ears of wild cats, all the better to hear and sense their surroundings with, and hollow bones and wings emerged as well. The cause of the wings was in fact when a shimmering unknown white feather drifted into the water of the Paraboia Lake found within the Myrasti Swamp. Four young elves found themselves wanting to go swimming and took a dip, only to find themselves within the lake as the moonlight turned the water a sparkling silver. When the four emerged... they had gained wings... pure white and silver tipped as the moonlight above while their ears sparkled faintly... spots donning them delicately while glowing spots emerged under each eye. This was the beginning of the Ochresile race, the start of the four royal families and the formation of the continent Sune'orine.
Once Iaquezela was formed, the problem was having the royal families actually agree, unrest was very common with many small skirmishes happening along the borders of such tiny regions. When a severe dry spell hit, that was the worst war of all times. Sune'orine was not big enough for everyone and tensions ran super high to be able to get water. The royals fought against one another in the sky, all four royals clashing and fighting violently. Drops of glittering gold blood fell from the sky to rain down upon the land. When the war ended, one royal was dead on the ground, her long hair splayed in a halo around her while the other three stared in shock at what they had done. Gold blood pooled around her and that was when the royals looked around. Many Ochresile lay dying or dead upon the ground and the other three came to an agreement...Each would rule a region, and there would be a new continent. As the agreement was sealed, it began to rain softly... as if the very goddess they believed in was weeping for the loss of a beloved child. Where blood had dropped and dyed the ground gold... flowers which resemble roses bloomed, petals glittering gold with gems in the center of them - to remind all of who they had lost and what had happened on those three days, for that was how long the war lasted. A new queen was crowned... and Iecha was formed. Peace was restored at last.
Present Day
Many years have passed since the devastating war which had overcome the Ochresile. The two continents have not fought in years, and honestly, all seems well. Festivals and holidays cause music and color to explode into being. The royals have managed to have marriages between each region which have allowed the peace to remain over the years. The field where the war was fought is considered sacred and the flowers never die, they light the meadow in gold throughout the night and into the day. However... it does not mean evil rests. A new problem has arisen. A young male Ochresile who specializes in dark magic has taken to figuring out how to take over. The peace will not last for very long as this enemy seems to be gathering more forces who wish to overthrow the royals. Now, as you may think the royals are safe you have another thing coming... almost all royals have been wiped out due to this threat. There is one full family standing and the princess from the Eastern kingdom has long since gone into hiding...believed dead. The northern and southern royals each have two remaining members, and the call of war horns now echoes over Sune'orine and Iecha both alongside the blazing fires of warning. Guards constantly patrol and healers are constantly on call. Now, everyone hopes the royals can save them... But when it is said that a thief is called upon to fight... every Ochresile thinks the royals have lost their mind. What they don't know is this thief is the missing Eastern Princess. Who will fight for her kingdom... and the kingdoms of the royals until her very last breath. Take up arms, and fight alongside us as the Ochresile fly into war once again.
Ochresile Race
Ochresile are unique humanoid beings with a variety of wings and cat ears that determine and mark their rank and the kingdom that they are from. Genes are known to be recessive and dominant depending on species and types of wings and magic that the Ochresile obtain and use. There are four royals still alive to this day - but one of them is only a rumor. The Eastern princess is a mystery to everyone in Iaquezela - and instead most rumors fade over time to be rebuilt as a thief emerges from the desert.
Genetics
- Genetics and Reproduction: Some might expect a being with wings to lay eggs but Ochresile’s do not. Instead Ochresile give live birth, but they are very specific in mates. An ochresile has a soul mate if you will. A destined partner to live with for the rest of their life. A kind of tug at their soul will lead them to their partner. While not common some rejections may occur, one thing is if a rejection is not accepted by each member then one will die and usually it will end up being the female. When the two are partnered, a ring will be gifted and crafted to match each one oftentimes following their tattoo colour. The male oftentimes proposes to the female and while most are malexfemale soulmates there are some femalexfemale and malexmale bonds which form. Now the thing about genetics is usually a bit more difficult. If it is a mother who holds a dominant trait such as light hair and the father has a more recessive hair color the child will inherit the dominant gene mainly though by the next generation a recessive gene may pop up. With ears it’s the same kind of genetic lay out. While the mother often holds the dominant traits, it will be a rare occasion that the father will have the dominant trait and the mother recessive. Depending on genetic build - it could be possible to have a child who ends up having the recessive genes.
For example: If the mother has light hair, oncilla ears, and gyrfalcon wings while the father has dark hair, tiger ears, and barn owl wings there could be two to four outcomes. One could be the child would inherit light hair, oncilla ears, and gyrfalcon wings. Another could be the child would inherit dark hair, oncilla ears, and gyrfalcon wings. The child could inherit dark hair, tiger ears, and barn owl wings. Lastly, the child could have light hair, tiger ears and barn owl wings. See how that works? It usually depends on if the mother has heterozygous traits versus entirely recessive traits. If the mother has heterozygous traits it is likely the recessive traits could pass through to the child, but if it is entirely recessive then the likelihood of the child inheriting said traits is pretty much about 1%.
Kingdoms
Western Capital: Kanda is located near the sea of Narma and the royal family of Myari rule the Western Region, a bit to the east of Kanda is the Tower of Eternal Night which is where the Royal Family dwells.
Northern capital: Nionevris - Located near the Diamonde Sea and where the noble family of Tilochu rule the Northern region, a bit to the west of Nionevris is the Fortress of Ridaro where the Tilochu dwell.
Eastern capital: Galeri - Located in the open plains of Sune'orine and where the Royal family of Thuriya rule. The Thuriya royals dwelled in the castle of Minasdio which is located behind the lost forest of veila which has a hidden path.
Southern capital: Barad is located in the open meadow of Iecha, where the noble family of Ladireh dwell and rule. Barad is also home to the Ladire Castle where the noble family dwells.
The Eastern Family
Lithoniel Nachtya Thuriya is the last remaining member of the Eastern royal lineage - she is considered a rumor and mystery to the entire Iaquezela world by now, with only speculations of her survival being known. Lithoniel is best friends with the Princess of the Northern Kingdom, but only this one person has a real feeling the Princess of the East is alive. One full royal family is still standing and the princess from the Eastern kingdom has long since gone into hiding...believed dead by most.

Drysillias - The holiday to celebrate the end of winter and the beginning of spring… often celebrated in the month of vlejelt. The vibrant greens, blues, and turquoise swirl around the cities while gentle music soothes and raises hope to the sky. Feathers and beads are woven into hair styles while a plant based dye is used to stain the skin of the Ochresile who are performing. Young ones get to join in the festivities as they dance, play, draw, and mess around.
Tusilya - The festival of thankfulness. When all Ochresile’s come together and celebrate all that they are thankful for as well as remembering loved ones who have passed. This day is when many will go to the field where the war from long ago and enjoy the setting sun as the flowers glitter brightly. Food is brought by all and the four royal families meet all together on this day. This is usually held in Privihm.
Nachtya - The festival where most dancing and singing occurs. This is to celebrate their goddess and the peace which Iaquezela now has. Presents are gifted and lights are shimmering all around the cities. Brilliant crimson and pure silver colours ignite the streets and paths. This holiday if one is lucky enough… will have a song sung by each royal crown prince/princess, yet this only happens every docir years. Docir means 2 for those of you who don’t know. This festival is held in the middle of the month of Zixenes.
Magic and Religion
Religion: Ochresile beliefs revolve around a religion which has a single goddess and a few smaller gods/goddesses which are worshipped. The main teachings circulate around inner peace and connectivity to the environment and others around them. This religion has very specific beliefs which are shown in murals, intricate patterns, flowers, and dances as well as songs. The main goddess is known as Nelaser - The goddess of Iaquezela as a whole. Nelaser is the one believed to have sent rain down and formed the sacred flowers in the field where the war was held. She is said to be young, about 24 if you will, with long copper hair reaching in waves to her ankles while she wears an emerald green dress which sparkles as she moves, and where she walks new life springs up. The lesser gods and goddesses aren’t well known as mainly Nelaser is the top goddess. Nelaser can give life just as easily as she can take it away as well. Nelaser though is a forgiving goddess and when one passes from the living realm to her realm… a new constellation is said to appear in the night sky as the magic from their body is released back into the air. Becoming part of Iaquezela once more.
There are four minor gods/goddesses. Alodel is the goddess of plenty and often worshipped during the festival of Tusilya. This goddess is portrayed as a woman who has brilliant silver wings and flowing ebony black hair. Often murals of this goddess are found in the southern region of the Ochresile and she can be depicted as a Gyrfalcon. The other goddess form the minor four is Sennefre. A woman who is considered to be the goddess of fear. She is a woman who has platinum blonde hair with soft snow leopard ears. A bunch of beads are braided into her hair and she has a gleaming gaze of ice. Often times this goddess is symbolized as a figure of a snow leopard itself. The first god we come to is Ilthoryn. He is the god of war and he is portrayed as a male with dark tan skin and crimson red hair - which begins the tales of the fact red hair is considered a curse and is seen as the blood of other creatures. Ilthoryn is often portrayed as a giant raven, which is due to him having raven wings. The last god we come to is Rosam. This god is portrayed as the god of peace and good wishes - usually worshipped during the holiday of Nachtya. He takes the form of a male with pale ivory skin and brunette hair with tiger ears and can be depicted in murals as a giant white tiger.
Magic: The magic system in Iaquezela is a bit complex. Here in this world, the air thrums heavily with magic and so do the beings which make their home here. So the sources of magic are found in the air and the body (mainly the heart) of every being. When an Ochresile finds his/her magic calling - say earth or element based, or find themselves using animal magic, then the said ochresile gains a tattoo on their body, usually found at the base of their neck or around their wrist or shoulder. The usual age group which has been found to find their calling is around young teenager years. When an Ochresile becomes 17 or finds their magic call it is signifying the change from teenager to adult. It is the highlight of an Ochresile’s life. When an Ochresile passes on, their energy and powers are released from their body and into the air. If an Ochresile holds an elemental power, they gain strength from said element. If one say… has elemental powers over water, the weaknesses would include fire… and hot places.
~ Tattoos gleam faintly with the color of ink used
Blue is water elemental
Red/crimson is fire elemental
Silver is air elemental * very rare type of magic
Forest green is earth elemental
Burgundy/Brown/copper is Animal magic
Yellow/Gold is electric elemental
Turquoise is Night sky elemental
Magenta is Aurora Borealis magic
Ebony black is Dark magic
Mercury dipped silver blue is illusionary magic
Light pink is Music magic
White is Ice elemental
~ The more intricate the design the higher standing an Ochresile is ~ Royals have markings along their face, usually as little dots under each eye, which gleam the color of magic they use
Names
Now as for names which you seem curious, you will notice each royal has a unique and specific last name which indicates their region. Myari is Western, Tilochu is Northern, Thuriya is Eastern, and Ladireh is Southern.Many female names have Niel or Vys added to the end of them while males more or less consist of Ris or Var added to the end of the names,
most common names are~
Mirialniel~
Ailavys~
Isevelniel~
Saphielle~
Lathairis~
Rydelvar~
Nymris~
Teleasin~
Healing and Medics
In this world, Ochresile mainly rely on herbal remedies. Many ailments if not treated can lead to death or serious injury and permanent damage. So it is constant knowledge that groups of medics and healers must go out to collect herbs for salves and tonics. Healers and medics often find themselves praying to Nelaser and treasure her the most out of every goddess in their religion.
