Welcome to DIETY CLASH!!! Its basically my pokemon spin off to go along digimon, medabots, beyblade, shaman king and dare I say it Bdaman =^.^=
Anyways. The world is divided into several continents each with their own magical core or indeed cores that give them their own unique properties like weather and night/day lengths(there is no sun or climate on this world). Everything to give the planet life is given by the cores of the continents. Due to the diversity of these cores and the different number of cores in each land mass, the civilasations and life that has grown and developed are very different.
As with any world, fueds between the continents have been part of its history for some time, there was a large period where the world was full of fighting, wars both small and large, civil and worldwide covered the lands. About 100 years ago though, the continous conflicts grinded to a halt although some of the continents and their people retain bitter feelings born from this "Age of Conflict" as it became known.
In these wars, warriors from each continent would use the powers of the magic cores in their lands in the form of deitys. Powerful creatures who are the spirits of the world, emboding something about the land they are part of. Aswell as powers of their own, the deities could augment and enhance the skills and powers of their partners. Many many deities exist of all shapes, sizes and strenghts. Some have even, like humans earned a name remebered or sometimes feared in legends and tales.
Now...as a dark and terrible force seeks to create a new age of conflict, The dieties are being called back into being to fight for the cause of the warriors once again. After all these years though, it will take some time for this new generation warriors to come to terms with the true powers of the dieties and master their full potential.
Either way, the bitter feelings must now either be succumbed to or put aside for a greater good in the coming battles that will once again sweep across the land.
This is DIETY CLASH!!!! >.<
This is Kimiya, he comes from the desert continent of Jheema. He has always had a kind and pure heart and a passion for protecting the innocent and fighting those who are doing wrong.
Much of his youth is a blur and he doesnt remeber what became of his parents or if he even had any sisters or brothers. The earliest thing he recalls is training with a mysterious man who he met in a village one day he wandered into (Kimiya lead a very nomadic lifestyle). He became attached with the people of this village and joined the man in its protection against bandits, settling down there.
Some time after that though a threat even there skills couldnt match came, soldiers from the continent of Sollin. They came in full force and weilded a strange demonic power. For some reason they seemed to have orders to clear the deserts of all life, Kimiya could only wonder why. He narrowly escaped the slaughter through the brave sacrifice of the mysterious man who trained him.
His passion against evil burned even brighter and as if those flames took form, Kimiya was rescued from the merciless deserts by Fenrire, the Hound of Flames and diety of Fire, Passion and loyalty. Fenrire told Kimiya that he needed the help of the boy to stop a terrible event that was soon to occur. Both their missions pointed them to the continent of Sollin
To his freinds Kimiya is kind, understanding and sweet. To those who do wrong he is a raging force. The transition between the two often startles those who know him. Fenrire is wise and protective, often having to quell Kimiya's reckless enthusiasm. The bond they share is strong
Kharr also comes from the desert continent Jheema. He however hails from the southern, Artic side of the continet, the Tundra. The strangely opposite cores of the continents two halves seperated by the Gemini Mountain range, make one side covered in ice while the other is covered in sand. (Ice lands are deserts too as well as sand)
Long ago, a war broke out between the two sides, the reason and instigator of this war was long lost in the countless battles in the "Age of Conflict". Though the conflict has now ended, the two sides still retain a bitter distaste for each other, Kharr's family especially.
The Ice lands were also invaded by the soldiers of Sollin and their people cleared from the lands by slaughter. A hasty decision was made and Kharr opted to go to Sollin and bring an end to whatever madness the King was planning. Accompanied by Alopex, the Wolf of Frozen Tears and Diety of Ice, sadness and loss who is told to have cried as the land was halved and as the southern part froze the tears were forvever frozen on her face.
Despite Kimiya's efforts, Kharr refuses to team up with him. Yet it seems to be more than the bitter feelings of the war of the past that is keeping him from joining Kimiya. Yet their identical missions will have them cross paths again and again and from time to time even cross weapons.
There seems to be some friction between Fenrire and Alopex too...
Kharr is blunt and cold, his main desires are to become stronger and unleash more of the diety's power so that he will be able to free his people and bring down the Sollin empire. He does not care for the problems of others, claiming they will only slow him down and only serves his own purpose. Alopex does little other than follow him with a similar attitude, though they do not show it or even admit to each other, their bond is strong.
Prince Jhen is part of the royal family of Sollin, the continent of steel. The people of Sollin have expanded over their lands and developed much more than the other continents but at the cost, the magic of the land has all but died and little remains of nature there.
However, the King of Sollin is well known for his generous and kind rule and the land of Sollin is well known for its hospitality to people from other nations ever since the end of the "Age of Conflict"
The greedy, cruel and spoilt Prince Jhen however was furious to learn he would not be suceeding his father and instead his younger brother would. He would not accept this and began to look for ways he could make the throne his!! His search lead him to tales of a terrible power that could be his through deadly sacrifice and pacts to dark forces. Jhen spared no hesitation to begin setting up this demonic ritual, the evil prince tricked his father into being sacrificed for the summoning of Kirimagnus.
Jhen completed the dark pact and power was his. He quickly took over the kingdom and sat himself on the throne. Yet he found his greed had grown and soon began making plans to expand his land to the other continents.
All those soldiers of Sollin that didnt leave the continent were also pacted with dark powers and the forces soon immobilized and invaded the other nations. The nations were completely taken by suprise and many coasts quickly fell. The Sollin empire was growing quickly. Those soldiers who did not submit where either slaughtered or exiled. Jhen's younger brother was last seen fleeing the continent
With the dark deity Kirimagnus, shrouded in mystery and rumour at his side, Jhen ruled with fear and power.
Jhen is conceited and confident, he has no care or mercy in his body and thinks only of attaining his control of the world. He wishes to be in command of all!!
...but who is really in command here?
Leid is one of the warriors of Kodama, an untamed, utopian continent covered in vibrant jungles, lakes and forests. The people of Kodama live in perfect harmony with the nature and magic of their continent. In the "Age of Conflict" the people of Kodama were a peaceful people and could not fight the invading armies who were greedy for the rich and plentiful resource of Kodama. The people and the land suffered terrible losses
Now after the wars stopped many many years ago the land has returned to its original beauty. The people though have not forgotten. The warriors of Kodama are the amongst the most powerful and disciplined in the world and these warriors make sure the land is never harmed again. The leaders of Kodama have decreed ever since the "Age of Conflict" that no outsiders will ever again be allowed to set foot on their continent, the warriors make sure of it.
Recently though, Leids mother, one of the greatest leaders of Kodama was assasinated. It is not known by who but now the people are crippled in greivance and failure and Leid himself is torn apart inside. He promised to his people he would find the assasin and kill him and restore the pride of his people, at the same time he hoped he would also finally find peace within himself. He felt responsible for his mothers death as he was a guardian, charged with keeping outsiders of the island so these things wouldnt happen, though many of the gaurdians and people felt they had failed as protectors, only Leid felt he had also failed as son.
The leaders of Kodama granted him the diety of wind,earth and the whole Kodama itself, the legendary and powerful Aepyornis, the roc. As he searches across the lands for clues and rumours, he refuses to be joined or even befreind or trust anyone of the outsiders, Leid and the people of Kodama have never trusted them but above that Leid knows anyone of them could be the assasin.
Leid is single minded and focused, he does not open up to anyone now he is outside his home and deals with others with a dismissive tone. To Aepyornis though, to whom he trusts and admires as the sprit of his home he shares a very close bond with the genderless diety.
This is Rory, who is Jhens younger brother. Rory was set to be the next on the throne after his father, the kind and admired King of Sollin. However, his cruel, heartless brother murdered his father and took the throne for himself with the help of demonic powers from the dark deity.
Betrayed, Upset and Scared, Rory fled the continent with no idea what he was going to do and where he was going. With him he took Seihou, the Dragon of Light and Deity of Pride, courage and care. Seihou was once a tall and powerful dragon, but as the magic of Sollin depleted with the peoples focus on technology, his power and size shrunk.
He was also joined by Freya, a deity who had been awakened by the battles Jhen waged on Sollin to take over. Freya is the Dragon of Betrayal and is the deity of Broken Trust and False hope. Like Seihou, she had shrunk to be a small deity with Sollins dwindling magic.
Once Rory had escaped Sollin, he decided that he needed to find help to stop what his brother was doing. His father dead, his future ruined, his brother the enemy and his homelands reputation tarnished, Rory is facing dark times and is unsure if he can go through with this fight.
Seihou and Freya combine their strenghts to match the power of any full deity in battle. Even though they dont usually get along or agree with each other, when they fight together they are a perfect team.
Rory is much like his father, unusually kind, forgiving and helpful. However he is also easily scared and discouraged, although he has a short sword he was never taught how to fight, his father was gone before he could taught to be a king too. Due to the terrible things the continent of Sollin has been doing lately, to hide where he comes from he hides his ears away.
Freya despises the Sollin empire and Jhen, believing they should be destroyed. Seihou believes that the orignal glory and light of the continent can be restored and Rory's brother saved from the darkness.
Shou comes from the the very mountainous continent of Spyria. The people of Spyria have all the villages and cities atop tall mountains that span across the whole continent, almost nothing lives at the foot of them. Spyria has devoted itself to the study of the very magic that gives the planet life. Many of their people become wizards. Some though, especially on the higher cities study the places beyond their world, they have extensive observatories ever looking into the sky. There are no clouds during the long long nights in Spyria so the stars are always visible. The continent of Spyria was barely touched by the age of conflict, because of the mountains raids on their continent were so difficult it rarely happened. Spyria on the other hand were very secretive and quiet about how they raided other continents, using magical assasins and ambushes on their enemies.
Shou is an accomplished astrologist at one of the many observatories, he couldnt have cared less about what was happening elsewhere in the world, his eyes were on the stars. Until one day, Lepidomoms, the wings of the stars and deity of the unknown and space itself appeared before him, telling him of a terrible tragedy that would shut out the sky forever, one that Shou must play his part in preventing. Shou had no choice but to accept, he wouldnt see his lifes work and those of his family and heroes die!! So he set off to find others to help put a stop to the catastrophe brewing up at the heart of Sollin.
Shou is smart and arrogant, his knowledge of the magic of the world allows him to create potions and cast spells. He has a cocky attitude and his non-chalant response to much of anything is sure to annoy. It is rare to find him without some witty or demeaning retort to anyone who challenges him
Lepidomos is mystic and usually quiet. His eyes can see for miles in all directions and with his wings he can seemingly dissapear into the night. He has little power compared to other dieties but has many mysterious abilities to help his allies.
Gata is also from the lush continent of Kodama like Leid. However he lives on a group of small islands just off its coasts that have always counted as part of Kodama and so are also governed by the leaders of Kodama, the Grovha isles. The people of the Grovha isles have long been seen as a savage people, half man, half beast. However the truth is much different. The people of the Grovha isles are even more attuned to the nature and magic of the world than the people of the main Kodama. It is said that this is becuase the islands are so much smaller while the magical cores of the land are still the same size, making the land very rich in magic. The people have been affected by the magic, becoming part deity themselves, their bodies started to show features of the deities of the isles.
So strong is the magic there, that some of their deities never dissapeared after the age of conflict like the others did. They continued to live with the people. Also the jungles of Grovha are so dense, their growth accelerated by the magic, that only natives can easily make their way through.
The assasination of one of the leaders of Kodama was a sad time for the Gorvha isles too. Gata, who had grown up with the Tiger of Blades, and diety of impulse, bravery and freedom, Thera, had not known his real mother, she died while he was very young. Acting completely on impulse, Gata wanted to venture out into the world and put a stop to all the pointless killing he prayed had died along with the age of conflict, it was the one thing he simply could not tolerate. Thera followed the boy as he set out on his journey to where the witch doctors of his tribe had told him so much killing would be caused, the continent of Sollin.
Gata is usually energetic and ready for adventure. He loves to fight but hates killing, except those who would kill themself, he believes those who would take life have denounced the value of their own. He is mischevious and untamed and always well in front of everyone else.
Thera, who has acted as Gata's mother for most of his life is very protective of him, luckily, she is strong and agile, she is able to keep up with the antics of the bouncy child with ease. She strikes with terrifying force and speed born of a millenium of running wild and free.
Marlix is one of the several antagonist characters I have been meaning to draw for a good while. He is second in command of the armies of Sollin (the General is next to be drawn I think :3) and is a feared noble. His skill with the rapier is matched only by the delight he takes in bringing an opponent to his knees. Unlike the general, he has no quarrel in fighting a weak foe, the game which he treats battle as is still just as satisfying. Choosing to stay in Sollin and reciever the dark power of the demon diety, Marlix has become a terrifying fighting force.
Xiphias is the Diety of Rushing and swelling tides, the ebb and flow of the sea, and of pain and mortality. Stolen from the snow covered half of Jheema, he was only too happy to serve under Kirimagnus and spread pain about the world. This shared interest in causing pain was once the only bond the pair shared, but time together on the battlefield has given rise to a sense of respect for each other.
Vesper hailed originally from Kodama like Lied. However his family left the continent when Vesper was very young to live in Sollin. At some point during the voyage, Vespers parents dissappeared from the ship, presumed dead, just who or what had killed them was a complete mystery. The ship crashed into Sollins dock with the young Vesper as the only person left alive on the boat.
Vesper made his own way in the bustling cities of Sollin as an assassin. His skill with the bow and his kodaman clothing and tattoos quickly earned him a name in the buisness. When the corrupt prince and demon diety overthrew Sollin, Vesper, by then regarded as the best assassin in the land, was hired by prince himself to perform a terrible assassination back in his homeland of Kodama. The demon diety was intrigued at Vesper's hollow soul and numb persona, and struck a deal with the assassin. Permanent servitude to the Prince as his personal assassin, the payment: dark powers beyond imagining and command of his own diety. Vesper agreed, and upon completing his mission, returned to stand as one of Sollins dark generals.
Vesper is cold and without emotion to the point of seeming robotic. He battles and takes life without the slightest thought, stringing and loosing arrows in one smooth, subconcious motion.
Icarohn is the diety of all secrets, solitude and all that was stolen. The gruesome creature looms about Vesper like a grim reaper, a chilling aura of evil surrounds it. Only too happy to serve as the instrument of death that Vesper treats him soley as. The mutual understanding that thier partnership exists purely for the power it grants them allows them to work together without any problems.
