History
-------------------------------------------------
The Kingdom of Wechsreich was first founded by a nomadic tribe that consisted mostly of Changers; creatures that resembled Men but could become animals at will. They wandered the lands for many years, until they passed through what is now called the Southern Pass in Mount Argonath, and settled at last upon the lands which start from the Mount Argonath, through the valley, to Mount Goliath. There they laboured for many years, under the rule of their chief, then king, Lord Formlos, upon whom many myths would later arise. At first, Wechsreich was just a little village, which grew into a stronger city, eventually becoming a vast kingdom inhabited by Changers.
Wechsreich, while powerful, is not very advanced, mainly due to the threat posed by the two barbaric tribes; Bakure in the Northwest and Basure in the Southeast. Other threats also compromise of the gate in Holleland in the South, where demons constantly escape the underworld, the Dragon Cave in the North (west of Mount Goliath), in which menacing dragons live, the Palus Swamp in the North, where nameless horrors live, and the fact that the mountains are abundant with tunnels and caves which are infested with the most horrifying of creatures. For example, the tunnels and caves of Mount Goliath are inhabited by spiders as large as bulls.
Wechsreich is rich in many minerals, such as iron, copper, silver, gold, jewels, and bronze, but is best known for producing Mithril; a rare and extremely valuable metal that is found in great amounts in Mount Argonath. The kingdom lacks much fertile soil, meaning that farming is very limited, but still enough to support the average amount of people, as they also depend on raising livestock (such as the oxen found in the mountains) and fishing to feed themselves, meaning they have enough food to stay strong and healthy.
The Changers of Wechsreich, known as Wechians, are very friendly and tolerant people, and very popular among other kingdoms. They have established trade routes and alliances with many kingdoms, and they come useful when needed; their abundance in minerals, their strength, and the fact that they're natural sailors, considering that the nomadic tribe that founded the kingdom originated from a small fishing village. It comes off as a surprise that they're quite a peaceful folk (unless agitated, that is), as they are trained for war since a young age in order to defend themselves; they must excel at fighting aggressive tribes, demons, dragons, and all sorts of beasts and monsters in order to protect their kingdom and people.
The Changers of Wechsreich have a most peculiar culture indeed. They worship several deities, the most important two of which are known as Areus, the god of mountains, wealth, and forgiveness, and Codarr. the god of nature, forests, and beasts. Although they do not show much religiousness, once a month, a magician is chosen to praise the Two Lords of Land at the ruins of Alten; a temple dedicated to the two gods. According to mythology, Alten was the king of demons, and the mysterious ruins were once a place of worship dedicated to him, until he was slain and defeated upon his own altar by the Two Lords of Land, and the place fell apart.
Each Wechian family has its own forms; most can transform into a single beast, variations depending on the parents, although a few select families, known as the Royal Folk, who are considered above most other Wechians, can transform into either more than one creature, or into rarer creatures, such as dragons or phoenixes. Most prominent of these families would be the Rioghail family--the ruling family of Wechsreich, who can transform into, mainly, dragons. Several members of the family have also learned to transform into more than one creature. It is believed that the Rioghali family, who live in the capital, Stadt, is blessed by Vibus--the god of moon, dusk, dawn, and stars, and by Ocdea--the goddess of light, prosperity and mist. They believe that willow trees are blessed, and plant them frequently.

Its a website that has an app.
And most of the time and rp will just have 2 or 3 GMs who determine who would win based on numbers, troops skill, equipment, strategy, terrain, etc.
Id be willing to do this seeing as how im a history major that specialises in military history. But if the battle involves me we would need at least one more GM. 3 is best so that they can all talk out the war with varying opinions to get the best result.

Probably, I mean it wouldn't really make sense for us to be too far from each other seeing as none of us really have the tech to travel very fair.

Quick question. Does the National Treasure pro mean something of a single national treasure, many magical things, or is that pretty much up to interpretation for whatever would fit the term?

yes also I was wondering if I can have a space program
like not spaceships and crusiers but basically where humanity is now

I mean space travel came in 1969 so it seems reasonable to just be able to have basic space travel

You know jet engines were only usable in like the last year or two of WWII right? The first satelite put in orbit was put there in 1957, a full 12 years after WWII and nobody was ever put in space until 4 years after that. If you have WWII tech, space isn't anywhere near possible for you right now.

Guys in the pros. If you have Relic Tech and Ether Tech you can then access space tech.
The space tech means you can leave planet side and go to Outter Freakken space. That was inspired by the stuff from Final Fantasy 4.
As for National Treasure: You have super unique but good quality items.
