The 2k2 Forest kingdom.
|
BB Skillz:
2k2 Forest rankings?
I was thinking about the forest kingdom soon coming to graal2002 and a question came to my head. "What TYPE of kingdom will this be?" I thought monarchy...no...a troupe type..no...and then it hit me. Why not make the forest kingdom a tribal type kingdom? I mean it fits the standards. Whether you want them to be a fierce savage type tribe, or a religious sacramental tribe, it seems like it would work. So, just take a took at the ranks.
The following ranks will go in order from most power --> to least power in some cases.
The "Holy" family. I.E. the respected of the tribe.
Chief - The chief is in all actuality the leader of the tribe. He makes decisions on warfare, religion, and knows some arts of voodoo. He symbolizes strategy and intelligence.
Königin - The spouse of the Chief. He will remain with her until her death in which a ceremony will take place. She has little to no power but stands as an icon of bonding an love.
Filho - The son of the chief and Königin. His symbol is that of warfare and "normally" will attempt in aiding the Geralok in war. He is also the heir of the tribe. He stands as the point that family can even be involved in war.
Filha - The daughter of the family. Her symbol is that of wisdom. Her hobbys consist of reading and exploring ruins.
Hikol - A distant relative of the family. They symbolize unity of family.
The "Army" of the tribe.
Geralok - The prime leader(s) of the Forest kingdom's army. They stay back and strategize plans with the Behilflicher. They symbolize even more the use of strategy over power.
Behilflicher - The Geralok's assistant to power. If in war the Geralok is killed, immediately he takes his place and the Behilflicher's son takes his spot. If he has no children, a ceremony takes place. (will explain later)
Lança Soldat - The prime user of the spear and naginata. They rush into combat by the dozens lead by their successor chosen at a ceremony (explain later). They symbolize strength in numbers.
Curva Soldat - The prime users of the bow. They are by far the heart of the military consisting of the best bowmen in the known world. They symbolize accuracy.
Água Soldat - These odd but talented "water soldiers" attack by numbers using water as their main transportation. Whether by raft or foot they can slowly sneak their way wherever they are told.
"Wizardy/Magi", the magic used in the kingdom is based upon elements and their expertise. Noone has control over the magi except for the Chief.
Druid - The "master" of the animals. He has the ability to communicate with nature and creatures and "SOMETIMES" convince them to aid in battle. He/she symbolizes the power of voice.
Flame Magiok - A "master" of the use of fire magic. They are used in the backlines of combat and are sent in during wars. They symbolize the "heat" of the forest.
Ice Magiok - Similiar to Zormite mages, they use the magic of ice (not water) to freeze their opponents in combat. They symbolize the chill of battle.
Curva Magiok - Using the elements as well as the bow, they can create "magic" arrows. These arrows or bolts do much larger damage than a normal Curva Soldats. They symbolize unity of magic and brute force.
Betrieb Magiok - The commanders of the wildlife. They can control trees/shrubs/vines or whatever other types of plantlife are amoung the world. They symbolize the bond between humans and nature.
The "priesthood" which consists of the arts of voodoo in prayer and in healing.
Doutico - The prime healer and alchemist of the tribe. He is definately the most skilled in the knowledge of herbs and plants and is only second to the chief in healing. He/she symbolizes the healing of humans using plants.
Porêt - The primary "priest" type rank of the tribe. They hold almost all of the ceremonies which choose rankings. They also go into battle at times and heal. Their knowledge of alchemy is high, but not of a Doutico nor chief. They represent the love of INSERTGODNAMEHERE.
Alquim - Followers of the Doutico. They gather herbs and other plants for the ill and are always involved in wars. They represent the "strength" of the wildlife.
Ceremonies will be held for numerous things. For instance, when chosing a new General after one is killed and a Behilflicher is not alive nor healthy a ceremony will take place. In this ceremony a group of 6 candidates will align and form a triangle around the shrine of INSERTGODNAMEHERE. They will slowly walk around the shrine until the sun comes up at dawn. The man whom the sun shines upon first will be considered the one touched by INSERTGODNAMEHERE and will be chosen for this rank. Ceremonies will also be held for matrimony, death, droughts, bad weather, or even when something such as a kingdom's defeat has happened, a ceremony will occur.
These are my ideas, I don't know if they are amazing or whatnot but the few I showed them to enjoyed them greatly.
Thanks, please include critism and complaints. Please also keep in mind these are rough draft :X. |
