The Kesian Factions

in Kesia

Different groups will always focus on different matters when it comes to the wellbeing of the Kesian people. Some are secretive and keep the goings-on of their factions hidden while others are quite open about they plan to do. However, across the factions, there are five major ones that stand above the rest.  

The Order of Magi

A group that makes up the majority of spellcasters across all of Kesia. They live by the mantra that while magic is dangerous, it is also a gift to mortal kind. It was founded after the fall of the Lich King and seeks to offer a place of education and protection for mages and non-mages alike.  

The Shade

A shadowy group made up of all info-gathering and criminal organizations across Kesia. They aren't considered allies of each other and some might even fight for control of regions and areas of their industry. While the Councils may be the face of Kesia, they are the power players who spread information to those who need it... for a price.  

The Jade Conclave

While civilization tries to protect itself, nature needs its own guardians to protect it from threats far and wide. That is why the Jade Conclave exists. Rangers, Druids, and anyone who wish to defend nature are the ones who make up this group.  

The Swords of Justice

When the Lich King was destroyed, the Order of Magi wasn't the only group created from the aftermath. 3 groups saw the potential they had if they worked together and came together for a common goal: The Arcane Court of Justiciars, The Hunters of Kesia, and the Swords of Radiance. Each crafted to combat specific threats, they are the shield that guard the realm of mortals.  

The Kesian Council

Kesia has seen bloodshed and conflict on kingdom-level scale before. However, with the emergence of powerful kingdoms that can possibly fund entire industries of war against each other, some nations thought that easier diplomatic channels would aid the continent. The Kesian Council is exactly that, taking inspiration from the Order of Magi. There, they discuss issues that could affect Kesia as a whole and speak privately with the countries it might affect the most.
