The World

The world is teeming with endless life forms, from the tiniest pixies to the larges ogres there are kingdoms that dominant factions. The very nature of long-lived species is to cause conflict, to fight tooth and nail against one another for the resources available. Whether a kingdom makes allies or enemies, in the game of war there are never true friends.

Spread across continents, kingdoms rule over their people with undivided loyalty. Each distract being primarily made up of their mother-race, befitting of their stereotyped traits.

All ruling families must send their children to the great school known simply as The Academy. Here they will interact with heirs from other kingdoms, close and far. An ideal time to make alliances or take out the next generation of rulars before they are properly equipped. The Academy is no child's play.

At the end of each year, the graduating students will be selected by their families to attent the Tournament. A series of trials and death defying displays where the winner will walk away with the entire haul of donated prizes. Soldiers, gold, weaponry, medicine, food, marriange, anything and everything is up for grabs.

If a family does not have a new heir for that years games, then the last heir is expected to attend or send a Champion in their place. Most, if not all, heirs select the latter.
