Rae

Name: Thyrmodian
Description: Standing an average of 7 feet tall Thyrmodians, have finely sculpted feminine features, with hair that runs the gamut from brown, to red, or blonde. Typically possessing strong bodies and sculpted curves, they often strap down their bust in combat in order to avoid awkwardness with the drawstring of bows. Usually adorned with tattoos telling of their successes in life. Generally the longer one lives the more tattoos they acquire. these markings evolved from a mingling officers ranks, and slave brands. While having the sexual characteristics of both genders, they lack most bodyhair. The Thrymodians are quick to breed and rarely show outward signs of pregnancy.

Racial abilities/traits: Naturally beautiful, incredibly sharp eyed, with above average strength and agility befitting such a form. They boast a long lifespan and a mild resistance to most magics

Age: 3 month birth cycle, 14 to adult, 80 to middle age, 130 to elderly

Genders: biologically 98% hermaphroditic, 1% male, 1% female. While previously a duo-gendered society with male and female roles. Time has seen them adopting genders more akin to dominant/submissive or hunter/gatherer. Depending on social context.

Rituals-Customs:
Thyrmodian myth claims they are descended from the harem, children, and soldiers of an ancient conqueror. Set to initially guard his great tomb. It is therefore necessary for high priests and the current Polemarchos to journey into the tomb once a year, the grand tomb also receives a tribute of spoils in each battle, be it people, goods, or valuables. In this way it acts as a communal treasure vault.
The custom of cleansing involves bathing in the nearby Lake Phrygian, this is how the priests induct a new member into their ranks.
Sexual maturity comes around age 14, before this Thyrmodians are biologically sexless. It is uncommon but not unknown for one set of sexual attributes to not develop, and while this marks the new adult as sexually stunted. It is also a sign of purity, as such most of them become priests or priestesses of high renown. Tasked with the upkeep of traditions, directing repairs to the great tomb, and raising the next generation.
They have a single god, known as The Allfather. With the Golden Conqueror within the grand tomb believed to be his direct son. The Thyrmodians therefore, regard themselves as the daughters of that son. They believe their hermaphroditic state as a gift given by the allfather because their population had dwindled to near extinction. However he has very few rituals, save for the giving and receiving of tribute, and the witnesses of oaths. He is symbolized by lightning bolt and bull like iconography. Which intertwines itself with the thyrmodian tradition of cattle and sheep shepherding.

Character

Name: Nikolais Zarda
Physical description: The current Polemarchos is of average height and weight for her species, with dark hair and an elaborate series of blue tattoos. She's actually quite beautiful but a rough life in the saddle has left her hardened.
Traits: Smart, ambitious, incredibly greedy and full of herself due to a long life and successes. Unused to refined pleasures but good humored and with a rough cunning and charisma that has allowed her to rise to the top. She lacks formal education, and tends to leave that to the priesthood.
History: Nikolais is the current Polemarchos making her ruler of the tomb complex, and the one sitting at the center of the Thyrdomian tribal web.
She began as the ninth of her father's twelve surviving sons, of which he had thirty over the years. Quickly taking to her bow and horse she became a well known hunter, and parlayed that into influence with the priesthood through sacrifices and tribute. Receiving a hydra egg in return from the high priestess. After one of her brothers poisoned their father, and he died without naming a primary heir it touched off a ten year long succession crisis. From which she emerged as the last brother standing. While she may not have initially sought her position, she's quickly acclimated to it, and used the next twenty years to consolidate her power and rebuild. Changing the succession law in hopes of preventing another family destroying catastrophe.
While the tribes and clans have been typically been inwardly focused that has changed under Nickolais's leadership. She finds kinslaying incredibly distasteful. Having done enough of it herself. But without the usual infighting the population has begun to rapidly rise in the last decade forcing her to find ways to divert her people's energies towards building projects, great raids, or fertility banquets, which while they lower tension. Also cause an annoying population spike.
The way things are going she may have to make her position and it's authority more tangible in order to keep control. She will not allow her own sons to kill each other as she killed her brothers. For that she needs control and stability.
But once you have control... is it ever enough?

A mer, the second gender listed! :)

Yes, I see! Overlooked that. Everything seems fine.

c0i9z - I see no problem with your Goblin race. Its fine, nothing you need to change.

Juggtacular - I like drakkons, but we need to do a few changes. They seem to overpowered compared to other races, I would have no problems with that if it wouldnt be group RP. So, there are two aspects which are especially op, one is flying and second fire breath. Maybe just light Drakkons can fly, they could be a special caste. And I would leave out the fire-breathing aspect. And also there is one more thing, no race will be able to start off with already build stone keeps or such, nor with precious minerals or gems. Technologically you will all start off on similar level, which is tribal technology level. Everybody will start off just when they imigrate into the region, you can pick where you make your base and such but you need to build everything from the scratch.

pdragon - Very nice! There is nothing I would change. Great job!

Hobbes1266 - Cuties! You don't need to change anything about them.

Hamadryad - Perfect, nothing to add.

Ironwolf85 - I see no problem in race itself, but again as I already mentioned to Juggtacular, you won't start with any pre-build complex or anything similar. Apart from that everything fine.

I'm okay with that. I don't want some big complex anyways. More like some sacred burial mound that can eventually be built up or lost to the mists of history like this. The kind of thing you could make with stones and bronze shovels.

Sure, you can do that but you need to build it anyway. Anybody can build anything if are they on good enough technology level to do that, and if they have enough people for it.

[Hobbes1266]

Is there any possibility that the Ravonae migrated to this new region through subterranean passages and found a cavern of at least somewhat similar ecology to their original home? They're highly adapted to their environment but they would be at a large disadvantage above ground, though if you want them to be stranded above ground that difficulty could be fun too.

I am not certain yet, it is possible, but it would at the same time take out certain aspects, like exploring the surface and potentionaly bumping into each other. Also it would mean I need to create another map of entire cave complex. So, we will see.

That's understandable. Having them get driven to the surface and forced to adapt to the new environment would still make for an interesting story.

Ah, so many have already jumped in on this and I don't know if I will be able to keep up as much as I'd like. Though I would love to watch at least. I can still try to get a sheet in if you are still looking for some.

Please get a sheet and create your character, we have enough people but somebody can always drop off, or maybe if I really, really like your race enough I might find a spot for you.

So.... Crusader Kings II the play-by-post?

Oh, I just noticed this post. Will you put me on a contact list or something of that nature in case of drop offs?

[Seris]

Yeah, sorry for late answer. Everybody feel free to create your sheet, if somebody drops off I will contact you and ask if you want to join in with your race.

Race

Name: Edelsteinan
Description: With an average height of 6ft tall, Edelsteinians are varied from both males and females. Males being youthful like their Female counterparts, though with reports of females looking a bit more 'mature' in terms of appearance. Due to the gasses as a result of mining around the area, they generally lack any visible facial and body hair. Both Males and Females are slightly well-built in terms of musculature, but less so for females, which make up for this with their finer curves.

Interestingly enough, Edelsteinans can normally reach maturity, but once reach maturity their both physical and mental age begins to slow down. It is possible for a 130 year old Edel to have the looks of a 35 year old.
Racial abilities/traits: A mixture of natural beauty alongside with a sense of curiosity. They tend to tinker with tools(and later on machinery as they advance through the ages) that they invent in hopes of improving both their lives and the lives of those around them. Sometimes picky with foreigners but become great companions once trusted.

Currently, they can carry rocks and ores twice their size, and can navigate caves easier than the normal human.

Their sensuality is higher than most, but they can numb their sensations for temporary moments, which in turn allows them to control their libido when needed be. In some cases, both males and females tend to be seductive.
Age: 4 Month Birth Cycle, 15 to Adult, 65 for Middle age. Maximum would be around the 140~ with some living up to 150 years.
Genders: 60% Females, 40% Males Both males and females do equal work
Rituals-Customs:
Specialized 'royal' marriage ritual for the King and Queen which works by having the male and female make out together in public, after the duo had been blessed by both a priestess(with a priest being optional) together on the altar. It goes like this:

1) After sharing a kiss, the Bride and the Groom get escorted by the priestess to the altar, while the two gently fondle each other's privates.
2) The couple are told to urinate on a special spot, as part of the purification rite, before a bath commences for them.
3) After the bath, the priestess  reads the document while the couple stands to the crowd naked.
4) The priestess does a striptease, while the couple mutually masturbate to the clone.
5) The couple goes for a 69.
6) The couple reads the vow
7) The couple perform some extra foreplay, before the intercourse.
8) The couple put special 'rings' on their genitalias.(Maybe a condom for the male)
9) Intercourse till climax.

For normal marriages and royal marriages:
Females do not go for other males once they have settled with their husbands, males in turn are sometimes encouraged to get more wives in hopes of more men.

A special coming-of-age festival involves them for a group of male and females to go around the town as their clothes drop, before the males from the group find their female partners and soon make out together. The ruling class has their own special coming-of-age festival however, due to being that of royal blood. Despite this, they actively ban incest, out of moral obligation.

It is said of this special rites for the rulers was because of the Maker, their sole god, made the first two humans. Said lineage soon mixed in with other supernaturalities, but there was one that remained 'pure' and untainted by other spirits to their origins.

Character

Name: Kurin Bilido
Physical description: Average physique for a normal Edelsteinians, but he appears to be extra fit than the usual men of his kind. Has green hair that was said to be inherited by his mother.
Traits: Smart and curious of the world around him, easily humbled due to his upbringing with the more commonfolk around him. Charismatic enough to rally them when in need, and also to seduce any girls that he finds to his own liking. Despite this, he does not make advances on them if they refuse, as to not waste any time.
History: Being born from a long line of rulers, he was sent to the commoners as to play with them and chat alongside them. Because of this, this allowed him to easily chat up with many and also develop some oddly-unique social skills. When his parents retired, he took the throne and decided to support building and other industrial projects in hopes of advancing their people to their fullest potential.

WIP

Moon Elves

Name: Moon elves
Description:
The moon elves are often described as an ethereal impossibly beautiful race… hair white as starlight, fair skin with a subtle silvery glow (literally) and light blue eyes the color of arctic ice. This color scheme never changes, elders claim it is because they of the moon goddess’s chosen and they shall always retrain her ethereal grace.

They tend to have a very calm and serene demeanor generally, but they are more than capable of the wide range of emotions… the more negative emotions are just a bit more difficult to evoke in them than others.

These elves are a very sophisticated people with their shining structures of white marble, fine inspired music and passion for the arts. They are quite intelligent as well, they are somewhat regarded as coveted statisticians for the battlefield… and even court politics.

They are somewhat a pacifist people, they do not condone violence against others if it can be avoided… but that doesn’t mean they won’t fight and ferociously at that, they just simply do not enjoy the taking of innocent life.

Male or female, all of them possess a golden crescent birthmark upon their foreheads. Said to be irrefutable proof that they are the chosen of Selene.

Males- the males of the moon elf race tend to be quite tall, the shortest ever seen in their history being 5’6, their bodies tend to be of a slender but strong build. Warriors and hunters tend to strive for muscular disciplined bodies, though even they prize a trim and toned quality to their physique.

They are often said to be just as beautiful in the face as their female counterparts, but with just the perfect amount of masculinity to avoid looking too feminine.

The males take their roles as protectors and providers within the society very seriously, for the good of their people and to be seen as perfect potential mates.

Females- the female of the moon elf race tend to have a very average height, the tallest recorded in their history was 5’6. Their bodies tend to be slender, but shapely with curves everywhere there ought to be, every movement infused with elegance and grace.

Their skin has been likened to the creaminess of fresh milk with all the softness of the finest silk.

On the battlefield, Moon Elf females make lethal stealth rogues and nimple as hell archers. Their grace and agility is highly prized for these specializations.

Racial abbilities/traits: On top of being breathtaking to behold, the moon elves are experts in the field of celestial divination. (reading and charting stars).

The Moon Elves have an extensive knowledge of crystals and precious stones and the benefits they have, along with their purposes in the occult

Age: The moon elves tend to live up to 3000 years old, they are regarded as full grown adults at the age of 200, 100 being the equivalent of what humans would comprehend as 18.
Genders: The moon elves have just the two genders of male and female, their ratio is fairly well balanced at present.
Rituals-Customs:

Mating~ First of all, Moon elves mate for life. These elves are extremely selective when it comes to choosing a mate, males tend to prefer females prettier than themselves and females prize strength, virility and dependability. It is not frequent that they will marry outside their own people, but it does happen, it is simply rare.

Their marriage ritual consists of the pair going out alone beneath the light of the full moon and making their promise of eternal love and devotion to each other, ultimately swearing to the moon goddess Selene, that they shall be faithful to one another for all eternity or their goddess’s wrath be visited upon them.

Religious~ The Moon elves worship the ethereal goddess of the moon, Selene.

Selene cherishes peace and good will towards others above all else… but beware her wrath when she is angered, for it is said that Selene will descend upon her transgressors with all the fury of the heavens should she be insulted to a high unignorable degree.

~More to come~

Character

Name: Celewyn Moongale
Physical description: Celewyn stands at 5’4 and weighs approximately 125lbs, she is quite proud of her lush hourglass figure.

Her silvery white hair hangs down to her ankles when unbound, but is shortened to her calves when arranged in the style traditional for the females of the Moon Elf royal family to wear.

Her eyes are the clearest sky blue, likened by members of court to glittering aquamarines.

She is presently 225 years old.

Traits: Physical/ Beautiful, agile, graceful, athletic, ethereal

Psychological/ Kind, selfless, loyal, honest, courageous, stubborn, moral, intelligent, resourceful, snarky (when provoked), clever.

History: Celewyn is the first born daughter of Queen Yvelle and as such, the crown princess of the Moon Elves. Her father, King Ithilrin, fell in battle 100 years ago in a small war against the dark Shadow Elves.

Since she could walk, Celewyn showed a great talent for the teachings of the bow wielding ranger, as she grew up, she advanced through the trainings and lessons to earn the right to wield a silver bow etched with the symbol of Selene faster than any other female of her race in hundreds of years at only 110 years old.

When she reached her two hundredth birthday and finally recognized by her people as a full grown adult, Celewyn had proved herself to be given a command position among their finest rangers, a big task to undertake along with her training alongside her mother to one day take her place as the Moon Queen.

Is it still on? Hope the GM is alright.
