Fantasy Heroes of Midgard: Pride & Glory Lore

[Zamasu]

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF MIDGARD

One of the eight realms and home to many mortal races. The elements of this realm was under the watchful eyes of the Six Elemental Rulers until their defeat at the hands of Meirith's tyrant son. There exists nine races (of which you can play as); the most dominant and adaptable Humans, the intelligent and nature-loving Elves, the stout but hard-working Dwarves, the noble and prideful Beastmen, the war-mongering and violent Orcs, the oddball-looking man-made Machines, the friendly elemental Spirits, the merciless and malicious Demons, and the all-powerful (and the only race that you CANNOT play as) Gods. All of them lived in peace, but there is little corruption when it comes to their different governance. The realm is fully diverse with different landscapes and kingdoms, specifically there are six kingdoms.

• Britana
• Antepelt
• Ragahelm
• Kyosho
• Darkwater
• Minstral

• 
  The northern lands of Britana bears an immeasurable cold, but some races were able to adapt to such. The most prominent race would be the Dwarves, as they were the first to settle in this harsh cold world surrounded by a multitude of mountain ranges. Thanks to their superior architectural, engineering, and a little dose of magical skills, they are able to create a home for themselves and gain a living through their adapted livestock.
  
• 
  The southern kingdom Antepelt is known to be extremely hard to find as it is surrounded with a magical barrier that makes it invisible to the outsider. This is the home of the Elves, though there exists some Beastmen and Spirits, the latter being on friendly terms with both races. Despite its beautiful sight, there are some spots that had been stained with vandalism from outsiders. Nevertheless, the Elves are more than welcome to have outsiders, provided that they are trustworthy. This is also the only kingdom where magic is abundant as it is believed that the Elves were the first to come up with magic.
  
• 
  Of all the six kingdoms, Ragahelm, the southeastern kingdom, it the most technologically advanced. Humans and Machines lived in perfect harmony, forming bonds that are ever so unbreakable. This kingdom is known to be the very first to utilize both magic and technology when used in the fields of engineering, but nowadays magic is very rare due to the growing intelligence of the Machines. The kingdom is also the most heavily-guarded as the walls surrounding it is mounted with missile launchers, laser blasters, and tons of weaponry that is way out of the league of the other kingdoms.
  
• 
  Far to the east is a kingdom separated by the main continent. It is said that this kingdom possesses unrivaled beauty in its scenery of greens and fauna and those who are born in there can possess two types of energies, both spiritual in nature; the magical spell-casting Onmyodo and the physical strengthening Ki. It is often said that some kingdoms plot to learn this mysterious magic for personal use. This kingdom possesses the strongest military that the realm can see, with over dozens of powerful Onmyouji and skilled martial artists.
  
• 
  The most infamous of the six kingdoms. Located south of Antepelt, it is a kingdom known for its trade and merchandising, but it also the home of many criminals. Thieves, pirates, murderers, and a lot of them roam the docks for victims to kill and steal. This is not a place anyone can live peacefully.
  
• 
  Known as the very foundation of Midgard, located in between the snowy mountain ranges and the thick forests and close the biggest cave which houses the mythical dragon god Sharai. It is said this kingdom was the very first to be built upon when the realm was starting to get crowded with life. It is the epicenter of all political agendas and as well as being the mediator of the other five kingdoms. This is where our story begins, right here.
  

THE SIX ELEMENTAL REALMS
There exists six realms with each of them basing on these elements; Fire, Water, Nature, Lightning, Light, and Darkness. These elements is what makes Midgard a safe and stable realm for mortals to live, but ever since the Six Elemental Rulers have fallen, the balance slowly breaks until all hell is loose. Only Gods have the ability to travel through these realms, but the mortals have been developing a way to get to at least on of them, and up until now, it is still under works.

• Ignisheim
• Aquaheim
• Terraheim
• Fulgurheim
• Luxheim
• Umbraheim

• 
  
  
  
  The realm of scorching hot flames, lava, and magma. The heat is so hot enough to dehydrate a person within mere seconds, let alone melt metal for a nanosecond. This realm is ruled by the Searing God of War, Arowin.
  
• 
  
  
  
  The beautiful realm of water, and occasionally, ice. No land exists in this world, just only depths of water and a huge abundance of marine life. This realm is ruled by the Flowing Goddess of Beauty, Beauna.
  
• 
  
  
  
  A realm full of life. Trees and animals live in harmony, but sadly there exists little water and no seas. This realm is ruled by the Solid God of Harvest, Chanbur.
  
• 
  
  
  
  A dangerous realm of mountains that stretches high into the heavens where storms are dominant and lightning strikes at every corner. This realm is ruled by the Thundering God of Judgement, Duran.
  
• 
  
  
  
  The realm of the Gods and higher Spirits, a paradise for pure hearts and great achievements. This is usually the meeting place for the Six Rulers, and it is ruled by Malevolent Goddess of Blessings, Elia, who is also the leader of the Six Rulers.
  
• 
  
  
  
  A dark realm where sinners get punished and is ruled by demons, but the true ruler of this realm is the Evil God of Death, Fauz. It is also known as the realm of the dead, or for some, Helheim.
  

Arcana
Realm of Magic

The very abundance of magic lies in this very realm, Arcana. It is the home of the magically-altered humans known as Mystics, and it was ruled by Braun Everall before his untimely death from a disease. It is currently under the rule of one of his two corrupted sons, the other killed in a fight for not just the throne, but also for the most righteous belief. Since then, the realm has become so corrupted with evil that all of life begins to dramatically decrease in numbers and the balance of the realms disturbed after the defeat of the Six Elemental Rulers. Plans on taking over Midgard is under way, and so it is up for Meirith and her chosen heroes to stop him.

In this RP, there are two versions, one for each brother. These two brothers are...​

Korgo the Prideful, who believes that magic can only be used to take down the strongest and for the weakest to give a life they ever deserve. This stems from his childhood where his brother bullies him for not catching up to him in the magical arts. No matter the amount of practice he has gone through, there is no way he can surpass his own boastful brother. He will play as the main antagonist for the Pride Version. He is a master of Fire, Nature, and Dark magic.

<---Kaiga---Korgo--->

Kaiga the Glorified, who believes that magic can only be used to vanquish the evil of all the realms, this including the simplest actions that are deemed malicious. This stems from his childhood for being his brother's scapegoat whenever he does something bad. He could not stand being taken the blame for. He loathes his brother for using cheap tricks into making him think that he has surpassed him, but yet all of that cannot fool him. He will play as the main antagonist for the Glory Version. He is a master of Water, Lightning, and Light magic.

Both brothers know a way to spread these beliefs in order to make the realms a better place; genocide. By killing those who are strong or evil, no matter what kind of person, they must be purged for the sake of better living the in the realms. These beliefs of theirs is what made them corrupted, and when one of them ascends to the throne, his plan begins in motion. It is only a matter of time before his entire army of Mystics step on Midgard's soil.​
