Holy Dwarven Empire

Structure

The Queen (or originally, the King) is the absolute ruler of the military state.

Public Agenda

Conquer the world.

History

When the King Thaud Fireforge ruled the Dwarven Empire, it mutated into an enormous power of magic users. And when his demigod daughter Imily-Tur rose to power, the gods themselves became involved in the meddling of the Material Plane.

Disbandment

In the terrible Maitreya, when the world of Ochebana ended, the Empire fell.

Territories

Originally based in Eisenhowl, the Empire invaded Balebu, Bao-Mou, and finally most of the Material and Inner planes.

Military

The dwarven armies were central to the empire and its base of rule. The Firefleet as air force was very important, such as the Legions of the Army.

Technological Level

Magical vehicles give it similar technology to today's modern world.

Foreign Relations

The Holy Dwarven Empire was allied with the Krynn of the Outer Ring and the dwarven gods themselves. They were enemies with most mortal races of Ochebana and were also fighting for their extermination.

Agriculture & Industry

The Empire fabricates high-quality magic items mainly used within its own market.

Education

Most people get an education in a state-run Imperial School.

Mythology & Lore

The Dwarven Pantheon (excluding Dain) is the official pantheon and the only allowed one.

Divine Origins

Some gods were those that created the dwarves in the first place; others are ancient heroes now ascended to godhood in Thom Faldur.

Worship

The main worship of the Dwarven Pantheon is done by having statues of the Queen placed in locations for veneration. The Queen is made to be the embodiment of the gods in all dwarves' eyes, and this works quite well.

Priesthood

The Imperial Order of Khaz-Derck is the official name of the large body of clerics, monks and priests that is found throughout the world.

Granted Divine Powers

Almost all dwarves have magical powers: this is thanks to the gods and the Krynn.

Political Influence & Intrigue

Although the Queen is absolute, quite a few governors and military officers work behind the scenes to gain power, and many governors rule their provinces autonomously. The army is the only power the Queen has in many outside regions.

    When Asmodeus rose, a great war ensued which shaped the Material Plane as the continents were molded by the enormous bursts of power of various mighty entities. However, this not only shaped the physical realm, but also the magical fabric of the place.

    First Marin Empire

    Third Marin Empire
    Founding

    The hordes of Marins stored away in Ancetartic profited of the new territory vacuum after Ostoria’s disbanding, quickly invading the new free space, legend saying they used their forests to help them. Anyway, the Marin Empire grew to be the largest of the empires, bigger than anyone would see in millennia. Under the Marin rule, forests grew everywhere.

  • 22000

    Draconic Alliance
    Founding

    The good dragons created a small alliance, the Draconic Alliance, a little empire of a few isles in the south, out of the remains of the Draconic Order. It was just a structure of indifferent dragons living their lives, not really an actual military might.

    Founding of the Dady Empire

  • 16653

    Efreet Invasion
    Military action

    Efreeti legions, in the wake of Sultan Nefeirty’s rise, invaded Ancetartic, ready to conquer the Material Plane. All life they encountered was killed, the world about to be invaded. However, they would soon realize that there was no way for them to cross over to the main continents, and the Dadys made sure they didn’t get any, so outposts were installed and the troops withdrawn. Efreet would disappear completely after 2’000 years, as Efreet politics demanded the troops back.

  • 15057

    Founding of the Elvish Empire
    Founding

    The elves, following their expansionist rage, established the Elvish Empire. They succeeded in doing so mostly by their vast network of elvish slaves, greatly appreciated by Dadys, that suddenly turned against their masters, weakening the armies before combat with the elves. The empire was based on a matriarchal structure, creating elvish Houses headed by mistresses, with a council of mistresses acting as government. Quickly, the elves stopped in their conquering rage. They rested mainly on magic as a power source.

  • 15056

    Fall of the Dady Empire
