Common Opinions: (Drir)
Ad Decimum
"Their screams are girlish, and their only defenses are arcane in nature. Therefore, were they closer to the sea, they would make an excellent prey for our raids. They do hide in their city so many delicious tomes.”
Amalgamation
"They chased us from our homes, and would seek to do more if only they were able. They are our most hated, yet distant enemy. Whenever we are blessed with a visitor from their nation, we make sure that they suffer.”
Celestial
"They are mythic destroyers who can obliterate the dead with a word. We fear them, but perhaps they too should fear us. Their blood and bones make for coveted ritual components, but they all but never visit our isle.”
Celestine Empire
"They are so clean, so pure. It is for this reason that they all must die. Their very existence is a reminder of what we are not.”
Cestral
"They drown themselves in ale thinking that they have suffered. They have no idea what suffering really is. If they were closer, we’d be happy to show them.”
Coatl
"Now these are a people that we can respect. They’ve lost as much as we have, but their spirit is not broken. They also understand the covenants between life, death, and abyss.”
Cole
"Ah the Cole… They are our most frequent guests. Smugglers and sailors who venture too close to our isles. Flesh tastes so much better when you know their name.”
Dace
"Like the Cole, the Dacians to occasionally visit. To their surprise we have little interest in their gold or gems. We do have an interest in carving their flesh. What better mask than one made out of a Dacian’s face?”
Demon
"Our most honored guests, they are often summoned and come in peace to make pacts, or at times are forcibly brought here and bound to our will. In either situation, we are happy to speak with them.”
Draconic
“These creatures were long ago defeated. Now their bones are relics of war. As our people fled the expanse while these weapons were still used, some of our most ancient of artifacts are made of these bones.”
Drir
"Our hearts are filled with only hate, and we seethe in violent stillness while we watch the other nations grow. Only in this hatred are our people united, and then even still, with no one else to hurt, we periodically turn against each other.”
Elves
"The Amalgamation began their hunt against the elves, and we were caught in-between. We were the true victims of the so called ‘purification.’ Let them die for all we care, but send us their blood and bones.”
Fae
"The Fae keep their distance from us, and for good reason. They are no less difficult to trap than any demon, but much less fun to interact with. Torturing a Fae or forcing them to do acts which they despise is a rare pleasure.”
Gael
"They are barbarians who cling to remnants of distant honor. For that ignorance they are slowly being wiped out of all of creation.”
Mandala
"The women from here make good wives. They are clever and cunning and know of good ways to kill. They are treacherous too, but in circumstances where they cannot escape, they know how to make the best of situations.”
Nadine Empire
"These warriors are great, and their necromancers exceed even our own in terms of power. They are one of the few peoples who can safely reach our shores, and even turn our undead forces against us. Fortunately they have few reasons to come here.”
Saek
"They are slaves and sacrifices who have fled their demon masters. They are insignificant and likely allowed to live just to breed and replenish their numbers.”
Castle Thorn
"The people of the iron fortress hate us, but can do nothing against us. They are bound like a statue and forced to watch the actions of others from their towers and behind their walls.”
Vein
"The Vein fear magic more than most. They view magic as inherently wicked, and they don’t know how right they are. The world will eventually know the power of the Drir, but for now we simply wait and perfect our craft.”
Vicaul
"They are raid much like we do, only they use warrior tactics and we use magic and stealth. Preying upon others is the way of life. Both of our nations recognize this truth.”
