   Blood Arts are akin to magic, totally unique to the bloodfiends and utilize their own or victim's blood.

   The Arts themselves are almost always unique to each bloodfiend.

   Blood Arts allowed bloodfiends to manipulate blood to their will, to shape them in any shape and form, for offence or for defense and which ever may suit their need.

   Blood Arts made bloodfiends superior to their sanguine brethren's who also feed in blood and flesh.

   Entry settings

   “Greenskins” is a broad classification used across Alteria to describe a family of hardy, green-skinned humanoids, most notably Orcs and Goblins. Though often dismissed as uncivilized raiders, Greenskins possess a distinct and deeply rooted survival culture that shapes their behavior, movement, and interactions with other races.

   General Overview

   Greenskins are a nomadic people, rarely forming permanent settlements. Instead, they travel in tribes that range from small bands to large war-hosts, depending on the strength of their leadership. Their way of life is defined by constant movement—driven by resource scarcity, territorial pressure, and cultural belief.

   To Greenskins, permanence is weakness. Settling in one place invites stagnation, and stagnation invites death. As such, they survive through a combination of hunting, foraging, and raiding, taking what they need rather than cultivating it.

   Orcs

   Orcs are the larger and physically dominant of the Greenskin races. They possess great strength, endurance, and a natural aptitude for combat.

   Serve as warriors, leaders, and enforcers within tribes Value strength, resilience, and direct action Leadership is often decided through combat or displays of dominance

   Orcs are not mindless brutes, but their worldview prioritizes strength above all else. Strategy exists among them, but it is often practical and immediate rather than long-term.

   Goblins

   Goblins are smaller, quicker, and more adaptable. While individually weaker than Orcs, they excel in numbers, cunning, and opportunism.

   Act as scouts, foragers, and skirmishers Known for traps, ambushes, and improvisation Often serve under Orc leadership, though independent goblin bands do exist

   Goblins compensate for their lack of strength with ingenuity, making them unpredictable and difficult to fully eradicate.

   Tribal Structure

   Greenskin tribes are structured around strength and contribution. Leadership is fluid—those who prove stronger or more capable rise quickly, while weak leaders are replaced without hesitation.

   Despite their outward chaos, tribes maintain internal order:

   Spoils are distributed based on effort or status Roles are loosely defined but widely understood Loyalty is earned through action, not words

   Large, stable tribes only emerge when a particularly powerful individual unites multiple groups. Such events are rare, but when they occur, they often result in widespread conflict across nearby regions.

   Relations with Other Races

   Greenskins are widely regarded as hostile by most civilizations. Their raiding practices and aggressive nature have led to repeated conflicts with Humans, Dwarves, and other settled societies.

   However, this hostility is not entirely without cause or context. Communication with Greenskins is difficult—not impossible, but fundamentally incompatible. They do not respond to diplomacy in the conventional sense, instead recognizing strength, dominance, or proven capability as the basis for any form of negotiation.

   As a result, peaceful interaction is rare and often short-lived.

   Perception and Reality

   To most of Alteria, Greenskins are little more than roaming threats—targets for extermination or containment. Guild contracts frequently include Greenskin suppression, reinforcing their image as enemies rather than a people.

   Yet this perception overlooks a key truth:

   Greenskins are not creatures of chaos.

   They are a people shaped by a world that rewards strength, mobility, and survival above all else.

   Current Observations

   While most Greenskin tribes remain scattered and transient, reports occasionally surface of individuals capable of uniting multiple tribes under a single banner. These warlords, though rare, represent significant threats capable of destabilizing entire regions.

   Such events are treated with urgency by kingdoms and guilds alike, as a unified Greenskin force is far more dangerous than the sum of its parts.

   Despite lacking cities, borders, or written history, Greenskins persist across Alteria—not as a fading relic of the wilds, but as a constant, evolving presence that refuses to be subdued.

3. #3Dragons & Wyverns

   Entry settings

   The skies of Alteria are home to many creatures, but none are as dominant—or as feared—as Dragons and Wyverns. Though often mistaken for one another by the untrained eye, the two differ greatly in biology, intelligence, and their role within the natural order.

   Dragons

   Dragons are six-limbed, draconic beings possessing four legs and a separate pair of wings. They are inherently magical creatures, born with a natural affinity to arcane forces that manifests instinctively rather than through learned practice.

   Unlike humanoid races, Dragons do not “study” magic—they embody it. Their abilities vary between individuals, often tied to elemental aspects such as fire, frost, or storm, and grow more refined with age.

   Dragons are fully sapient and capable of speech, reason, and complex thought. Many possess strong territorial instincts and a deep sense of pride, often viewing themselves as superior beings. While not unified as a single faction, Dragons historically maintained dominance over the skies and played a crucial role in regulating other apex predators.

   Dragonkin are widely recognized as descendants of Dragons, inheriting diluted traits such as partial scales, heightened affinity for magic, and draconic lineage. However, they lack the innate mastery and presence of true Dragons.

   Wyverns

   Wyverns are four-limbed creatures, possessing two hind legs and a pair of winged forelimbs. Unlike Dragons, Wyverns are entirely biological in nature, lacking any inherent magical capability.

   Despite this, Wyverns remain among the most dangerous aerial predators due to their relentless physical evolution. They possess no known natural growth limit—continuing to increase in size, strength, and durability for as long as they survive.

   Wyverns are intelligent, capable of strategic hunting and environmental adaptation, but lack the capacity for speech or higher societal structure. Their behavior is driven by instinct, survival, and dominance.

   Most Wyverns perish before reaching maturity, either due to territorial conflicts, predation, or intervention by stronger entities. However, those that survive long enough can become catastrophic threats, rivaling or even surpassing lesser Dragons in raw physical power.

   Rivalry and Balance

   The relationship between Dragons and Wyverns is defined by natural opposition.

   Dragons, as magical apex entities, have historically acted—whether intentionally or not—as regulators of Wyvern populations. This is due to the inherent danger Wyverns pose if left unchecked. With no growth ceiling and aggressive survival instincts, an unchecked Wyvern population could destabilize entire ecosystems.

   As a result, Dragons have often culled or driven away particularly large or dangerous Wyverns, especially those that reach abnormal sizes. This dynamic has created a long-standing rivalry between the two species.

   While Dragons refine their power through mastery of magic, Wyverns grow through accumulation—size, strength, and adaptation. This fundamental difference defines their conflict: control versus expansion.

   Modern Observations

   With the fall of the Dragon King, the balance between these two species has shifted. Reports of increased Wyvern activity have become more frequent, and sightings of abnormally large individuals have raised concern among kingdoms and guilds alike.

   Though still rare, the emergence of ancient Wyverns serves as a reminder that while Dragons may rule the skies…

   There are forces within it that do not recognize rulers at all.

4. #4Major Races of Alteria

   Keys: Human-folk, Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Insectians, Birdians, Beastkins, Dragonians, Fishfolks, Fishmen, Lizardmen, Greenskin, Races

   Entry settings

   The continent of Alteria is defined not by a single dominant species, but by the coexistence—and frequent conflict—of several major racial groups. While countless variations and sub-species exist, most inhabitants can be broadly categorized into seven primary racial families. These classifications are used by scholars, guilds, and kingdoms for the sake of clarity, though they often oversimplify the diversity within each group.

   Human-folk

   Human-folk encompass Humans, Elves, and Dwarves—three distinct yet closely related races that form the backbone of most structured civilizations across Alteria.

   Humans are adaptable and widespread, known for their rapid expansion and flexibility in both magic and technology. Elves are long-lived and deeply connected to nature, often residing in forested regions with strong cultural and spiritual traditions. Dwarves are resilient and industrious, favoring mountainous or subterranean environments, with mastery over metalwork and engineering.

   Human-folk societies are the most politically organized, forming kingdoms, empires, and guild systems that influence much of the continent.

   Beastkins

   Beastkins are humanoid hybrids bearing traits of mammalian animals—such as wolves, felines, or other land-based creatures. They possess enhanced physical senses and natural combat instincts.

   Highly diverse, Beastkins are divided into numerous sub-species, each with unique characteristics. Some integrate into Human-folk societies, while others maintain independent clans or territories.

   They are often valued for their physical capabilities, though cultural biases and exploitation—particularly of valuable traits such as fur or tails—remain a persistent issue.

   Insectians

   Insectians are a dual classification encompassing both humanoid insect-like beings and their more primitive counterparts, the Insectoids.

   Insectians are intelligent, sentient, and capable of forming societies. Insectoids are instinct-driven creatures that operate under hive structures, often guided by a Queen.

   Residing primarily within the Great Forest, Insectians are both feared and misunderstood. Their predatory nature and association with man-eating behaviors have led to widespread hostility, particularly from Human-folk.

   Despite this, they maintain a complex internal structure and play a significant role in the ecological balance of their domain.

   Lizardmen

   Lizardmen are reptilian humanoids known for their adaptability and physical resilience. Often found in swamps, jungles, or arid regions, they are well-suited to harsh environments.

   They possess strong survival instincts and a practical worldview, often prioritizing efficiency and endurance over cultural refinement. While not inherently hostile, they are cautious toward outsiders and tend to keep to their own territories.

   Birdians

   Birdians are avian humanoids divided into two primary forms:

   True Birdians, fully covered in feathers with wings replacing arms, often lacking conventional hands. Half-Birdians, more humanoid in structure, retaining arms alongside wings.

   Birdians are known for their aerial mobility and distant, often detached perspective on ground affairs. While intelligent and capable, many prefer isolation or limited involvement in continental conflicts.

   Certain sub-groups, such as the Miliran, are noted for their immense power and historical significance.

   Fishfolk

   Fishfolk are aquatic humanoids inhabiting seas, rivers, and coastal regions. Adapted for underwater life, they possess features such as gills, fins, and streamlined bodies.

   They are often isolated from surface affairs, leading to limited interaction with other races. As a result, they are frequently misunderstood or overlooked despite their presence across Alteria’s waters.

   Fishfolk societies vary widely, from small coastal communities to larger, hidden civilizations beneath the waves.

   Dragonians

   Dragonians are descendants of Dragons, inheriting diluted draconic traits such as partial scales, enhanced physical ability, and an affinity for magic.

   Unlike true Dragons, Dragonians lack innate mastery of their abilities and must train to harness their potential. Their lineage grants them prestige in some regions, while in others it invites fear or suspicion.

   They often exist between worlds—neither fully aligned with humanoid races nor accepted among Dragons.

   Greenskins (Outlier Classification)

   Though not always included among the primary races, Greenskins—composed of Orcs and Goblins—remain a constant presence across Alteria.

   Unlike other races, they lack structured civilizations, instead forming nomadic tribes driven by survival, strength, and expansion. Their aggressive nature and frequent raids have led most societies to classify them as hostile rather than civilized.

   Despite this, their persistence and adaptability ensure they remain a significant force within the continent.

   Conclusion

   These racial groups form the foundation of Alteria’s world, each contributing to its complex web of alliances, conflicts, and cultural exchanges. While classifications provide structure, the reality of Alteria is far more fluid—defined not just by race, but by individuals, factions, and the ever-shifting balance of power across the land.

5. #5Alteria

   Keys: Alteria, World, Continent

   Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Alteria is a vast, singular landmass—often described as a mega-continent comparable in scale to a unified world. The name “Alteria” is used interchangeably to refer both to the continent itself and the planet it rests upon, as no other confirmed landmasses of equal significance are known to its inhabitants.

   General Overview

   Alteria is a land deeply saturated with arcane energy. Magic is not an anomaly but a natural force woven into its ecosystems, shaping everything from climate and geography to the evolution of its many races. From dense forests and sprawling plains to mountainous regions and inland seas, the continent supports an extraordinary range of environments and lifeforms.

   It is home to numerous major races, including Human-folk, Beastkins, Insectians, Lizardmen, Birdians, Fishfolk, Dragonians, and various outlier groups such as Greenskins. These races coexist in a state of constant tension—forming alliances, waging wars, and competing for territory and influence.

   The Known World

   As of the current year 657, the people of Alteria largely believe their continent to be the only true land in existence. While maritime expeditions have been launched in search of other continents, such efforts have yielded limited success.

   Most journeys beyond the continental waters result in:

   The discovery of isolated islands, often small and resource-limited Encounters with hostile environments or unknown entities Expeditions failing to return entirely

   Some discovered islands are:

   Declared forbidden due to extreme danger Found to be already inhabited, either by unknown civilizations or hostile forces Later colonized, though rarely without difficulty

   Despite these findings, no expedition has successfully confirmed the existence of another continent beyond Alteria.

   The Great Sea

   Encircling the continent is a vast and largely uncharted ocean, often referred to as the Great Sea. It is widely regarded as one of the most dangerous regions in the known world.

   Travel across it is hindered by:

   Unpredictable weather patterns Massive sea creatures Navigational anomalies, often attributed to magical interference

   Many who attempt long-distance voyages vanish without a trace, reinforcing the belief that Alteria may stand alone.

   Perception and Belief

   To the majority of its inhabitants, Alteria is not merely a continent—it is the world. The absence of confirmed lands beyond it has shaped both cultural and philosophical perspectives, with many viewing the Great Sea as a natural boundary rather than a passage.

   Still, there are those who continue to question this belief. Explorers, scholars, and ambitious rulers persist in their efforts to uncover what lies beyond the horizon, driven by curiosity, conquest, or the hope of discovery.

   Conclusion

   Alteria stands as a self-contained world—vast, diverse, and teeming with life shaped by magic and conflict. Whether it is truly alone or simply undiscovered remains uncertain.

   For now, all known history, power, and civilization exist within its borders.

   And beyond the Great Sea…

   There is only speculation.

   A close kin to vampires yet very different. Immune to sunlight and does not possess any fangs. The only tell tale sign that one is a bloodfiend is their crimson red eyes. Able to manipulate blood to their will and has hunger for flesh, bloodfiends are considered highly dangerous. One may become a bloodfiend if a bloodfiend decides to share their blood, bestowing them with unnatural prowess at the cost of their humanity and hunger for flesh. Those who have weak will would succumb and become a mindless minion while those strong enough unlocks a bloodfiend's true potential.
