Seralian Kingdom (Se-ral-ian King-dom)

Written by TheDoubleVV

Description

The Seralian Kingdom Is a nation who values their bloodlines over all other values, Their status and blood is what decides whether you are respected or a "peasant" by the populace, they also belive that magic is superior for the sole reason, that all races and creatures has a connection to the magic essence of the world.

Culture

Magic is used in daily life, it is frowned upon if you do not use it for daily tasks or other such means, as being seen not using magic could get you seen as a Toschkan, which by then would lead you to isolation, even by closest relatives.
While many of the "Lower class" would be seen as Toschkans in the Nobilities eyes they do not nessecarily believe in the old ways or the "noble ways" as they are reffered to by that part of the populace, they sometimes prefer doing it themselves than wiggling a finger, as in those circles it could be seen as trying to become a noble.
Seralia refers to magic as "magic rings", if you know little magic you are likely to be in the 1st ring of magic, while those of the head of kingdom may know the 8th ring magic, those rings is what determines how high up in the army you will be once you enlist and how respected you are within certain groups of people.

Military

The Seralian Kingdoms military is sectioned up to several battaltions or platoons, with each their respective leader being of 4th or higher ring, the higher the ring of magic the higher their rank, The military consists majorily of casters from each their respective city, many trained in various arts of magic, some in Evocation with devastating magic and some in abjuration with illusionary and trickery to trick and disorientate their enemies for a quicker defeat. Alongside casters is usually at least one battalion of constructs that acts as a melee infantry for any charge attack from the enemy at hand, the reason it's majorily constructs is because that the former king of Seralia found them quicker to repair then healing a wound of a normal soldier, and with the benefit of modifying their equipment and body, but it's not unsual to see common men alongside the contructs, fighting for their beloved nation and their beliefs that even flesh can be as strong as metal.
The casters of the Seralian military carry an abundance of materials and other focus items that they may use for magic, they also carry swordshorts in case they need to get close to the enemy or the enemy get's to them.
The Melee infantry of the Military primarily consists of metalic beings called Contructs which can be modified on a whim, the contructs primarily uses a sword and shield, without armour as their body is able prevent most damage like slashing and piercing, they also have a variety of arms which can be removed or jointed together and changed by the upholders of the contructs, primarily artificers. The common men who fight alongsid the Contructs also carry swords and shields, but with armour, mainly a form of leather armour or a cheap metal, as the more expensive metal get's used for the constructs.

Political situation

Seralia is at a brink of civil war between it's people, and it's two factions, the "Nobles" and the "peasants" as they are so called, even though, the king and queen and several lords and nobles, does not differentiate between their people, as they see them all as equals, whether Nobility or of lower class, all people have equal rights, but the majority of the Nobility see's the people of lower class as Seralias previous ruler did, he did not see people of lower class as people but more of lower beings of his kingdom, who should be slaves, to those of Noble blood, though it is not like that anymore, as the current ruler, abolished slavery and see's all his people as equal together with many nobles and lords, but this view of the old ruler is still very much a view many shares, and those who are not of noble blood are tired and angry of this view of them, and slowly but surely, grew hatred towards the nobility, and slowly began a Revolt, to show, that those that are not of noble blood, is as strong as those who are of noble blood.
