Azorah, Elodus, Hollow, these three kingdoms live in a constant state of peace and war. Centuries of conflict either inside the nations, between the nations, or if extreme all three at once in a brawl for supremacy. For now, the nations are at peace, however conflict is always looming in the distance.
Our story begins in the Nation of Light, the Country of Elodus, the Oldest of the Three Kingdoms. Once a land ruled by a manaical elf named Drow, who loved nothing more than to murder humanity for sport, hunting them like a sick game. This elf's reign occurred over five hundred years ago, and his wrath extended across the whole nation. Yet he only harmed humans, which were the majority, orcs, the more peaceful snow-elf tribe, and any other non-human entity had nothing to fear from his wrath.
That was until a man came, King Richard Elodus the first, who came and destroyed the cruel elf king and conquered this land for good of humanity. He was a just and fair ruler, however those who do not learn from history, are doomed to repeat it.
In time, with humanity in power, Elodus, the royal faction especially, grew a rather large hatred for non-human creatures, a hatred that extends to the countries new ruler, King Richard Elodus the Fourth. Richard, like Drow before him, is seen as a tyrant towards non-human creatures, even breathing his name in their respective camps is considered a death wish. Because of this, many rebellions are formed, including one formed by a man known as Pendragon, a human trying his best to better life for non-humans in this land.
In response, Richard created an elite order of guard, a guard that he personally over sees the training over, known as the Templar Order. The Templars, lead by a much kinder and much more respected across all races man called Vxal, this order is known for its obideance and loyalty to Richard. Sadly that has lead them to commit many a heinous deed, the most infamous being the wipe out of the Snow-Elf race, an attack that left very few survivors.
Elodus is the richest land, and the most prosperous, among the other two lands all the problems that it has doesn't exist. It is often called the Nation of Heaven, though the royalty of Hollow and Azorah know better.
Azorah is next, the Country of Strength, also the most feared country in the Three Kingdoms. Azorah was founded by a man named Exodus Azorah, about two hundred and fifty years ago. Exodus was like any Elodisan, he hated non-humans until an incident where he was left for dead and then tended to by a race not that common in any of the three lands, Orcs. The more primal nature, and how they solved their problems was intriguing to him. When they had a problem, they settled it like men and brawled like beasts, thieves were not tolerated and were executed, and yet, despite the clear savagery, there was peace among the people. He grew to love it, love the brawls, love the savage nature, and loved the respect for their time honored traditions.
When he left to tell his fellow Elodisans about how wonderful this new found honor was, Exodus was mocked relentlessly, to the point where he started to fight back and fight back he did, causing the first civil war. A war between him and his orcs, and Elodus's army. Unfortunately for him, he lost, and was banished to a far off place with no life and nothing but snow and ice. However as any Azorahan will tell you, you throw one of them in a bad situation, they adapt. Adapt he did, with only himself and what remained of his army he grew a nation, a small nation at first, that allowed any with a strong heart and a willingness to battle inside of his land.
Overtime, he did get many humans, elves, dwarves, and orcs to come to his cold nation, and that caused Elodus's eyes to peer onto the honorable and traditional land, and the first war began. Elodus invaded Azorah with all it's might, however the tiny nation fought back, and fought back hard. Driving the invaders out of their home, because of this however, many Azorahans have a hatred of outsiders.
Elodus has tried countless time to "tame a wild and savage land" however every time they have failed, which has caused Elodisans to fear the nation to their north.
Azorah grew from that tiny kingdom, it has grown to a mighty and prosperous nation, with the oldest building being Castle Azorah. It is currently ruled by a woman acutally, Empress Emily Azorah. To her people she is a wise, honorable, and beautiful leader whose power is enough to shake the heavens. To other nations, she's a savage beast with no heart or remorse. Emily has noticed Elodus's Templar Order, and welcoming another nation formed the Blood-Guard, where the strongest is leader, a man known as Kaos. Kaos is feared amongst even Azorahans, he usually only comes with Emily when they have to deal with lousy "diplomatic relations" with their long time enemy. However, the stories behind this man are legendary. For Example: It's said they he destroyed a Snow Dragon, in one strike.
Azorah's growth rivals that of Elodus's, however it's reputation is the worst. Many fear them at best, call them barbarians at worse. However it is still a mighty nation, and is a force to be reckoned with.
The youngest of the nations is Hollow, born only a mere fifty years ago, and is known as the nation of Darkness. This is due to the fact that everything that is considered taboo, dark, evil, or unnatural is all to common in Hollow, like Necromancy, Vampires, Werewolves, and other such beasts. (In fact Vampires are actually the majority in Hollow).
Hollow's history is a tale of a man known as Aliester Hollow. He was in the Templar Order when it was known as the Elodus Elite, and was banished for the order because of a misunderstanding that accused him of speaking with the Undead. At the time Elodus was in battle with a nation known as the Dark Lands, lead by the Vampire King Lysander, Aliester decided to do something about and headed to this land. When he entered, he found a nation oppressed and a land suffering. Through much trial, Aliester formed a rebellion and struck against Lysander. The battle was long as it was bloody, however Aliester emerged both human and triumphant, and swore that Hollow would never be ruled by a monster ever again, be it literal or figurative.
He formed the Council, an elite class of nobility that has powers that rival the royal faction of Hollow, however the final say on anything is up to the royal family, this was done to prevent madness, and to listen to the plight of his people. Because of how long the People of Hollow live, the council has not changed in fifty years.
There is Doctor, a plague doctor necromancer who doesn't say a word, yet everyone can understand what he can say. He is a master of the dark arts, and taught Aliester and his family the abilities to wield shadows as weapons.
Next is Margret, a vampiress who actually served under Lysander. She a kind and gentle soul, who believes in fair trial and believes that the only way Hollow is going to prosper like the other two nations is through love and compassion, not brutal force, however she also doesn't think Hollow should have a military so...
Victor is the exact opposite, he served under Lysander too and hated his tyranny. However he admired Lysander's more direct approach to ruling, he believes that Hollow should be like Azorah. A militant nation, what is focused on Glory and Establishing dominance. If there is a problem he is usually the one who wants to deal with it. However, he's a bit of an ass about it, and it annoys his fellow Councilmen to no end.
Finally, there is Fenier, he's a werewolf who believes in class and dignity. If Victor is extreme force and Margret is extreme peace, Fenier is more in the middle, believing firmly in the firm but fair approach. He is often the one the royal family listens to the most, because of this. However he does have his flaws, like for example, hes a bit of prissy pants, caring more about beauty than function.
Hollow may be young, but it has suffered a great tragedy, Aliester Hollow was murdered by a Demon Queen known as Nuit, when the nation's current ruler Veronica Hollow, was only five years old. Fourteen years later the Demon Queen did see justice, however Veronica is still only nineteen years old, the youngest ruler in the Three Kingdoms, a fact that her fellow rulers in Elodus and Azorah love to remind her.
Before his death however, Aliester formed something to help with the growing pains of Hollow, and to combat the Templars should Elodus get any bright ideas, the Enforcers. Lead by a man who is about Veronica's age named Ryker, the Enforcers and considered the guardians of Hollow, espeically since on of the growing pains is that Hollow has a bit of a crime problem.
Hollow, despite its dark nature, is actually a kind nation towards all who enter, outsiders or not. However, due to the fact of it's dark nature, it's reputation is on par with Azorah, if not worse. Elodus has a name for Hollow, the Nation of Fiends, Azorah's little nickname is "Untrained beasts." However despite this, Hollow is growing ever so slightly, becoming stronger by the day, despite it's set backs.
