Andur stand as tall as seven feet tall, sport curbed horns and are physically powerful and mentally bright. They have been at war with the Iridisian Empire for centuries, and have joined the Republic as natural allies.

Threats of the North

Five years ago, Referus Keep in the shadow of Ibitus Mountain exploded, creating a tear in the fabric of reality, in essence firming a bridge to the splinter world of Plyn Rathos, a world of shadow, terror, and evil. Demons poured out of the rift and swarmed over the north, slaughtering any living thing in their way, be it man or beast. The Churches of Areay and Sereneth were able to create a barrier of sorts, and the demons cannot cross south of the Caex Mountains.

That barrier has began to weaken.

Asandari Tanks

With war being a constant threat from both the east and the north, the Asandari military have expended resources beyond the Republics ability to pay. The results? Crippling debt and tanks, skycutters, mechs, and Firearms.

The Asandari military unveiled the Manticore class tank this summer, and other classes are in development.

Clone:

Manifesting Skill TN: 5-20

Effect: The mage creates a clone of someone they have seen before. The more intimately the mage knows the subject, the better the clone will look. This power also scales. The lower the TN the less real the clone looks. Sometimes eyes will be different colors, or if the mage was distracted, different shapes. Sometimes the skin will look like wax. On the higher end of the scale, the clone can be flawless and only a close friend or lover can (sometimes) tell the difference.

Airships and Skycutters

Typical Airships are modified sea-faring vessels fastened to an enchanted balloon that allows it to fly.

The Asandari Republic is typically the only owner of airships, but a few have recently been sold to wealthy individuals. The majority of Asandari airships are for military use, most civilian travel is done by locomotive or on horseback.

Skycutters, the newest model of Asandari airship require no balloon, are safer by far than the conventional model, and are able to travel at much higher speeds. They usually are styled like a normal sea-faring vessel, complete with sails, but this not always the case, nor is it necessary.

Airships and Skycutters are both armed with the latest and greatest artillery, and crewed by the Asandari military's best. 

Airships are able to go twenty miles per hour, while Skycutters max out at around sixty miles per hour.

In game terms, an airship or a skycutter's main cannon would do 10+XD damage, and the gunner would use the Airship Gunnery Skill to aim. For example: Caex Delnhome has 3 Skill Points in Airship Gunnery and 3 Stat Points in Speed. To aim, he would roll 6D. If he hits his target, it would deal 10+3D. If the character also has Skill Points in Cannon, he may add half his Skill Dice (rounded down, minimum of 1D) into both aim and damage for the Airship Cannons. In Caex's case, where he has 4 Skill Points in Cannon, he would now roll 8D to attack, and 10+6D for damage.
