Blessed with the Gift of Perfected Intelligence, the people of this Bloodline are called “Arkitechs.” Theirs is an entire society built on a hive-minded base of ever-evolving knowledge. Some are geniuses of Biology, some of Mechanics, others of Strategic Arts. Some prodigy are even adept in all three. Can any opponent truly ever stand against a force capable of outwitting their enemy at every turn, dissecting their approach and motives down to the barest elements?

Well, just in case, Arkitechs thought it best to cover the physical front too… To keep up with their Bloodline peers, Arkitech society also runs off some pretty extreme cybernetic-enhancements.
Telescopic vision implants? Check. Alloy-reinforced anatomy? Why not. Pulse Cannon embedded to the skeleton? Ha. Oh Yes.

Children to a harsh mountainous desert region, the “Indominus” are born to war from their first breaths. Their society is built upon one ethos: Every Fight Has Its Lesson. After thousands of years breeding powerful stock one generation at a time, today’s “Warriors” are a physically dominant species considered nearly indestructible in terms of blow for blow engagements.

Just imagine it: You’ve come for what’s theirs only to look to the skies and see literal titans leaping from the surrounding mountaintops to bombard the forces below. No matter their odds, no matter their enemy, they were bred for war. They capitalize on its challenge.

And as the battle drums grow louder, it dons on you. Tomorrow, they might just evolve that much stronger than they are today.

• REFERRED TO AS: “Indominus -or- Warriors“
• Nation Name: Indom
• Gift: Superhuman Strength and Durability, Super Speed

The legends say the five Bloodlines were bestowed their unique Gifts by the Spirits. Because these ancient entities have long since left the mortal world, for four of the five races, their existence is hardly more than myth.

But not so for the fifth Bloodline. Living atop floating mountain ranges above the clouds, the “Spirit Born” have preserved their access to the Spirit realm. As such, they command the powers found there; treading the line between the physical and the beyond.

A people of reverence and mystery, their power is unpredictable to say the least. Many traveling monks will spend their whole lives floating around the continent to visit healing camps and provide medical aid. Fewer still might teleport a child from peril to nearby safety.

But some distant tea houses have strange drawings scribed onto their faded walls: tales of whole towns being saved from meteors by men and women in white robes, stitching unseen barricades across the sky.

Take the greatest terrors of the Wilds: the mighty bear, the dauntless lion, the ruthless anaconda…
Multiply its strength ten-fold and preserve every fiber of natural-born ferocity….Then, give it the wit of man.
That is the Gift the tribes of Animas posses–the whispered lethality of the “Beast Master.”

To enter their territory, is to be detected and tracked from tens of miles away. To flee is to be pursued by a threat you never saw coming. To challenge them is to enter a losing fight against a hunter whose first toddling steps began by donning the traits of a chosen beast companion.

The saying goes that there is nothing worst than getting between a Mama Bear and her cubs…so what happens to the poor souls who stumble through the Wilds and encounter a horde of feral mothers?

“Weavers” know what it’s like to have the whole world in the palm of their hands. With enough of them assembled, they’ve been recorded reversing the very tides themselves. They’ve swept away entire towns beneath avalanche. They’ve even subdued irritable volcanoes into permanent slumber. Whatever the storm brewing ahead, it is theirs to command.

A society known for a heightened sense of superiority, the people of Petrichor largely keep to themselves. But though they may be distant, their presence is almost always felt. It’s hard to ignore your neighbors on the distant horizon when the skies themselves seem to bow to their decrees.
