Red Fields

-Red Fields. The Red Fields are one of the mightiest supernatural factions in the world. Composed largely of Beastkin, and having a considerable community of fire related supernaturals, like Phoenixes, some Wolfkin, even a few Nephrynes, not to mention the much revered Asurans.

-White Fields. Above the clouds, sitting tall on mountain peaks in the very distant east, the White Fields are inhabited by flying beastkin, but they only serve as the working and fighting class whereas the intellectuals and rulers are supernaturals. Unlike the Red Fields, these have a clear distinction between beastkin and supernatural societal roles.

[ History -[Shared with White Fields]- ]. The Fields share their founding history. Two supernaturals, Javid, the Dragon King of the West, and Azalkil, the Hawk Emperor were at a conflict. Azalkil ruled the areas where the Citadel has now expanded, whilst Javid had his own territory further west, controlling and sustaining an archipelago there.

Both knew they were going to clash with one another, and did not bother to avoid this. Instead, they decided to make a compromise. Hold their conflict out to the far east corner of the continent instead. However, once Javid left the island, bad weather took over. Snow, hail and  storms were unceasing. Thus, he was forced to evacuate his entire island population to the east. Azalkil saw this as a clear violation, and brought his army in as well.

The battle lasted for far longer than they assumed though. The two had to build more permanent settlements over time. Small villages at first, but they grew and grew, until they turned into a large civilization. War, however, had it come down to a less expansive form. Over time, the Fields have warred slightly, but always kept to their own when things looked to go too far. They maintain their animosity to this day.

[ Economy -[Shared with White Fields-] ]. Economically the fields are insignificant. They live by what nature can offer them and their trade is limited to the bandits, or secretly, between select factions of each field, who refuse to acknowledge the state of tension, and just smuggle goods between them. Generally, while the Red Fields have a preference towards agriculture and livestock, the White Fields mine precious metals and gems and stick to crafting various items out of them.

[ Politics ]. The Red Fields solve their conflicts by representatives  of  different lines of thought holding out a battle royale for the right to speak. The defeated speak last. The advice of wiser men is often sought out, but they lack a real council, or any sort of proper leadership. They just look out at whoever is the most likely to make a better decision. And then they drink. A lot. And they keep fighting when drunk.

[ Military ] The inhabitants of the Red Fields are born warriors. Might in body, strong of soul, they will always fight for their nation. Even the unpatriotic ones are fairly formidable in hand to hand combat, not to mention their elites possessing powerful magic and supernatural prowess as well.
