The Chocobo Champion
The Kingdom of Rivienne

Within the Grand Desert lies Grenouille, the capital of the Rivienne Kingdom. The city is built around the largest oasis in the in desert, with the king’s palace having been built directly above it. The capital is well protected by its high walls and elite guards, and is rich off the profits from mining and water distribution. Other cities and villages in the kingdom however, are far worse off. Those without their own water sources are forced to rely of inconsistent supplies from other cities. As a result, most of the kingdom besides the capital is terribly poor. Beneath the kingdom is a vast network of tunnels. In this network lies a great underground river. This river is the lifeblood of the kingdom, and provides the capital city with the great oasis it is so proud of. It is said that this river leads to the heart of the Goddess Rivienne herself.

The Church of Leau’s main temple is built directly next to the royal palace. Unlike the palace, the temple is made of gray stone. It’s age is more than visible, and its architecture is noticeably different from the rest of the city. The church has numerous members, but their most prominent, besides the high priest, is General Goldelle. As the most renown general in Rivienne's army, she holds an immense amount of power. Many say she and her troops are the church's personal army.

The Land of Feurey

The Land of Feurey is home to a massive jungle where the trees reach to the skies, and animals roam abundantly. Towns and villages are built in the few open areas within the forests, and along the coasts. The most populated city in this region is next to the Lake of Rage, where it is said the God Feurey once crashed into Lunacresta. Although the lifestyle of most citizen of the Clans of Feurey aren't lavish, their culture has always revolved around letting no one go without want. Help your neighbor survive, and they will surely help you in return. This attitude has built up an unbreakable unity between the three clans. It is also the reason they haven't been defeated by the Kingdom to the West.

The Three Clans:

Crane: The Crane Clan is commonly the keepers of shrines and temples. They are well versed in healing magic, and are the keepers of Feurey’s Crystal. They keep such places safe with their strong and disciplined samurai. Anything concerning the protection of the crystal generally falls under their jurisdiction.

Tiger: The Tiger Clan is the powerhouse of this nation. With the biggest family, they normally call the shots. They’re well known for their naval prowess, and tendency to take more loot that they can carry. You’ll find members of this clan leading the charge into battle more often than not, or battling pirates at sea.

Rat: No one really knows exactly where the Rat Clan is at, but they usually find you before you can find them. They handle the dirty under-the-table action, and are excellent spies. Many practitioners of dark magic also find their way into this clan’s ranks.

Excerpt from the Book of the Crystals

In the beginning, there had always been two beings: Nouvellen, the God of Light and Life; and Finnell, the Goddess of Darkness and Death. They are known as the Eternal Beings. Through their union the universe was created, and through their existence it is maintained. Eventually, the Eternal Beings gave birth to three children.

The first was Feurey, the god of Heat and Flames. He was a rebellious child, and was prone to ‘accidentally’ destroying things his parents would create. In time, he would learn to control his power.

The second child was Rivienne, The goddess of water. At first, the goddess was quite subconscious about her lack of power compared to her parents and elder brother, but Nouvellen promised she would one day discover her true strength.

The third child was Ventin. A cold and calculated god of the wind and sky. He cared little for his siblings, but even less so for his parents. He would soon find just how important it was to care for his family.

The Elemental Children came together to make a creation of their own. This creation became known as Lunacresta. The Children then created humanity. Humans were weak and frail, but multiplied and adapted quickly. They were quite entertaining to watch as well. However, Feurey had other plans for the humans besides simple entertainment...

War...

The Elemental Children sought the Eternal Beings’ powers. Together with humanity they battled for eons, in a conflict known as the Ancient War. Slowly but surely the Elder Beings gained the upper hand, prepared to crush their children and humanity. It seemed that they were invincible! However, a group of humans known as the Warriors of Light emerged. Together with the Elemental Children, they were able to subdue Nouvellen and Finnell. The Eternal Beings had their power split apart, and sealed within three unbreakable crystals.

In the fallout of the Ancient War, monsters began to rise across Lunacresta, slaughtering nearly all of humanity. The Elemental Children gathered the remaining humans on a single continent, and with the three crystals, formed a barrier of magical energy around the continent. This energy prevents monsters from entering, but allowed humans to pass through. It was this barrier that was the Elemental Childrens’ gift to humanity for battling alongside them.


—————

Since the final battle of the Ancient War, humanity has not made contact with the Elemental Children. All they have left is the Book of the Crystals, and the teaching of various religious orders.

Important Individuals

  • King Jerald Grivois
    Class: Knight
    The ruler of the Rivienne Kingdom. King Grivois was very young when he took the throne. Throughout his rule he had many wives. His first wife was taken by disease, the second was poisoned, and the third was stabbed. The king from then on refused to take another wife. However, this didn’t stop him from laying with many women, and as a result having many children. He always asked if his children wanted to live with him in the royal palace, if they rejected his offer, he would pretend they didn’t exist.

Beasts of Lunacresta

Guyai Bagars
These huge mammals are blind and rely on other senses. They have a keen sense of hearing and smelling that allows them to chase down their prey. Their bulk is able to knock down a tree if its in the way and their hide is as hard as stones. Deadly claws can cut down most things in its path. Their claws are highly valued due to their sharpness. However obtaining it in perfect condition is hard. When the claws are removed from the Bagar's they seem to degrade very quickly. Nonetheless degraded claws are still deadly.
Ballistic Chicken
On the contrary, the Ballistic Chicken isn't a chicken. It's more of a raptor with wings that have very few feathers. They're flightless birds with very sharp teeth. Fast on foot, they seem to excel in the speed department. However once you get them angry, they'll run twice as fast than before. Some say that the flightless chicken can actually fly in this state of rage.
Drearui
These small mammals are often sleeping on top of trees. They don't seem to eat anything in their deep slumber. While slumbering, they emit a gas that makes people sleepy of forgetful.
Dream Kraken
The Dream Kraken lives on land unlike its smaller and harmless aquatic counterpart. It emits a fog that makes its victims forget where they are. Seducing them into a wonderful dream, the kraken goes over and eats its prey before it can recover from its dream inducing fog. The more the Dream kraken eats the stronger it becomes and the farther its fog extends. The Dream Kraken was last seen in the Kingdom on Ventin.
Horicorn
A type of unicorn that has been domesticated by humans. Their relatives, the unicorns, are either extinct or very close to extinction due to hunters chasing them after their horns. They have evolved to where they depend on humans for protection. Horicorn have a sense that allows them to know whether or not a human is worthy of their trust. It doesn't matter how good or bad they are, as long as they protect them. Their horns are able to be regrown unlike other unicorns. While not as effective as their relatives, they're still useful regardless. These beasts most commonly found in the Kingdom of Ventin.
Kalard Vaipar
It's a snake that has the ability to change its colors to match its surroundings. They're very hard to spot because of this. Due to their ability of their skin, they're often sought out for and hunted. Unfortunately, the Kalard Vaipar is very intelligent and has a slow acting poison to those it bites. It's size varies but there is a legendary Kalard Vaipar that is said to live in the mountains and is able to eat the entirety of Lunacresta.


Always open to more ideas!
 
Darkborn

Grimlins

The smallest and weakest monsters of the Army of Darkness are the Grimlins. Despite being a humanoid monster they have long pointy ears and huge empty black eyes. Their skin colors vary all from dark blue to bright purple. They’re around the height of a small child and attack with their teeth and claws. Despite their size they always attack in large groups to try and overwhelm their targets. Beyond that their intelligence seems limited.
Kerlets

These swift packs of quadrupedal beasts are slightly shorter than a camel, but a couple feet longer. Their head is large with strong jaws that are almost made to crush armor. They’re backs and faces are protected by hard bone like structures that will protect them from the average blade and arrow. Nonetheless, their bellies and legs are not well protected. Whether or not they are vulnerable to a specific type of magic is yet to be discovered.
The Black Dragon

Although this is simply a rumor, some people have reported seeing a massive bird-like creature flying far out beyond the sea. Ex-pirates have even claimed to have seen the dragon up close.
