The Halfbreed Who Gained What He Lost

Charismatic, Charming, and Surprisingly arrogant in a naïve way.

by @amandakilljoy

Nash's story starts off as a child who was seemingly human at first, but his adoptive mother, Nadalia, took notice that he was a halfbreed, crossed between Hjaellin and Levande blood, as he grew he was taught certain trades, golem repair, leatherworking, and cobbling, but he was never taught to fight due to the peaceful lifestyle Levende are accustomed to.

This would unfortunately lead to the loss of his village. at the age of 15 he experiences his first raid, and through the carnage he was stowed away by Nadalia in a wine cellar. when the raid was over, the village was nothing but rubble, like a tornado had taken the village. The only remnants of his village was his blanket and two golems he was able to repair. one day after Nash fell to heat exhaustion and his golem friends could do nothing to help, soon guardsmen on horseback find the boy in the sand, being protected by the golems. They would tend to the boy, bring him in and make him a fresh guardsman.

Learning the art of dueling blades and horseback combat, he would show himself to be a proper trained fighter. he's now 18 (this is where abigore meets Nash btw) Nash was posted at a village with seemingly no status at the time, hardly any illagers nor husks try to attack due to it's small size, it was known as Fermin, but when Nash had his second day as guardman for the village, illagers stormed the small village, one illager with a horned helm fought valiantly, but slopy, causing his defeat in the end, he retreats with only a half of his men, and after that, Nash slowly making fermona his home, using his training from the guardsmen to protect his family, and his adoptive fathers, Doris the armorer and Phospherous the mason slowly over time the population of Fermin started to grow exponentially, and more guardsmen were posted at the now new city, Fermona, the emerald apple, where illager, villager, and human kind, live peacefully.

The Change For The Better

Nash, now in his 20s was slowly becoming the head hero of the village (a simple title just given to him by the home he protects), and when Phospherous and Dorris heard of this, they wanted to make something special for him, gauntlets what were embued the power to control the stone beneath his feet, they knew that Nash had a connection to the earth element due to his spirit and kind nature.

Nash used these gauntlets to materialize stone swords whenever he needed them, it was even better then the iron swords he kept as gifts from the guardsmen.

On the day that Fermona felt the most safe, a mysterious stranger known as The Cloak summoned the undead in the middle of the town square, causing a riot, Nash defeated the cloak, had them arrested, never to be seen again. but this made Nash feel unsafe, knowing there were users of magic that would wish to cause harm, he felt like he had to get stronger.

His fathers helped removed the stones from his gauntlets and forged them into a staff and so he heads off to the color country, stavustrand, and on the coast of the continent was a city known as Oaksend, it was the home of the most prestigious magic school the the west side of the world he stayed there for 15 years, learning geomancy and the magic's before it, turning him now into a geomancer. by @atenman

Over the course of the semester he was shortly wedded to the empire's royal guard captain, Ragna Norisen (@cometgoddess) Character by @cometgoddess

unfortunately Nash would have grave news come to him, in a form of an encrypted note with coordinates, it was from Abigore Melbourne, and he was seeking revenge more then ever. when he arrived he was kidnapped by Abigore and brutally battered by the barbarians. before Abigore prepperd to lay the final blow, ragna and the royal guard save the geomancer, sinking the illager general. Shortly after the whole ordeal, they would take the time to grow a happy family With Ragna bringing a boy and a girl into the world, Gloria and Maurice Dunes, they along with ragna are the reason why Nash fights for a free world.

By @cometgoddess

On the day of the final fight between Abigore and Nash, the geomancer was forced to push his magic to it's limits, he would use the earth underhim to make a powerful and sturdy armor to rival the Heart of Wrath (Abigore's final form)

Abigore Melbourne The steel clad Scourge

This is the master post for abigore

Ruthlsss. powerful, and cunning were three aspects well known to his tribe. but one day his hubris got to him, and in a drunken stupor he gathered some friends, sent and took them on a quest for killing and pillaging.

fortunately the target was protected by a young man who wielded two stone swords and his golems that stood by him, abigore lost his friends, his home, and his status all in one night, he swore to kill the guardsman that took his life away. the one he truly cared about the most was the only woman he ever loved, rosette wineblood, she felt great despair when he was gone, but over time she saw the faulty ways of the steeltusk tribe, leaving it behind for the life of piracy, where she leads a colorful and vibrant pirate life.

The once known general had toiled, seeking and schemeing revenge on the halfbreed hero known as nash dunes at his lowest point, after losing his ship, his crew, and his hope, he comes in contact with a shard of an ancient artifact, it promised him his revenge and much more if he vows to find the rest of its form. models by me

present day abigore now leads a whole army, now hiding his true goals under the veil of world conquest, but once again, fate chose something else in mind.. and beside him follows his second in command vandelle quarchette, a windcaller he obtained via a old prison made to conceal and tuck away the world's most dangerous and unstable magic users. character owned by @cometgoddess art by comet model by me

Unfortunately he was blinded by the bloodloss he uses the artifact to finish his enemy, but it fails him.. after using the incomplete orb of dominance to transform into the heart of vengeance, he loses control of the orb, and is absorbed into the vessel, where his arch nemesis proceeds to crush it, finalizing the orb and abigore's fate. art by me

THE DIMENSIONS AND THEIR RULING SPECIES

Get ready for an unnecessarily long lore dump about my Minecraft AU: CAELORIA, THE LAST ISLANDERS.

Before we begin however, I'd like to give credit to the person who inspired this tweet + the layout of this post in general! @oldmagerambles! Go check out their stuff for some more cool Minecraft world building stuff! :]

Now, let us begin...

THE FIRST REALM: OLYTHOS (The Overworld)

(Pronounced "Oh-LITH-ohs")

A vibrant, earth-like realm of large grasslands, scattered islands, and hidden gemstone veins buried underneath the surface. Olythos is the world of creation, full of life and endless possibility, a monument to creation and creativity themselves. It was once a paradise, but its people’s greed led to war and destruction, and by modern day (Classic MC) the world is no longer the lush paradise it once was, now divided into scattered biomes and islands.

By the time of Minecraft Legends: three main species had overtaken Olythos.

SPECIES ONE: THE AEDARI (The Builders)

(Pronounced "Ah-DA-ri")

These were the pioneering artisans who shaped the very world into what it is today. The Aedari were once the dominant race of the world, their mastery over magic and creation making them unrivaled. Their downfall came from their own hubris, overharvesting the land of its resources and angering the primordial forces. Banished to the Isles of Nysithea, they now exist as the mutated Abysswalkers.

Before their unwilling exile to The Isles of Nysithea, they had split into three great nations:

The Xilathari also known as the Vinebound.

A jungle-dwelling people who built hidden temples and hunted massive beasts such as The Great Sniffer. Inspired by the vine-entwined jungles and the militant, temple-building cultures of ancient Mesoamerica and Africa.

The Khetraim, also known as the Sunforged.

Desert dwellers who sought the secrets of life and death itself, worshipping the celestial Hosts of Foresight, Action and Knowledge. Their massive pyramids still stand as evidence of their grand rituals. This subset is based on the cultures of ancient Egypt and the Middle East.

The Pelagonites, also known as the Deepwardens.

A once-great maritime people, their monuments and war fleets were drowned in the Maelstrom. Heavily inspired by Mediterranean culture.

SPECIES TWO: THE KHARI (The Villagers)

(Pronounced "KAH-ree")

A second subset of humanoid beings that seemingly sprouted after the builders did. They're a peaceful, agrarian people who learned to coexist with nature rather than dominate it. They are a settled society, unlike the Aedari, which were nomadic.

They're a tribe made up of a religious, vegetarian series of craftsmen, scholars, and hard workers who work together to keep the village stable. As mentioned previously, they learned to live alongside the land and not against it, and that's the reason why they're the largest surviving race as of modern day. Also, something happened genetically which led to all villagers (and subsequentially, Illagers), having distinct larger noses and unibrows, a trait not shared by builders.

These traits might have become adaptive, helping villagers detect hidden dangers or even suspicious activity in their environment. The builders, being nomadic and exposed to a wider genetic diversity, simply didn’t experience this same bottleneck, keeping their features more varied compared to Villagers.

SPECIES THREE: THE VOL'KAR (The Illagers)

(Pronounced "VOLL-kar")

The first and only evolutionary(?) subset of the Khari. They started off as weaker villagers, whose immune systems hadn't exactly adapted as well as other villagers, which meant that when builders arrived, all their viruses came with, which led to illagers gaining slightly greyer skin.

Eventually, when the war against the Nehen’Vur's Boargrims rose up, they had learned how to be violent, fighting alongside the Aedari to protect their home realm from this invasive species. They now saw themselves as the priests of The Hosts, divine cleansers who were brought on this realm to purge the Olythos of all those unworthy and weak. This caused a sort of blood lust, and so, they begin tampering with violence, even following the path of the Aedari and experimenting with magic capable of controlling life and death, and they succeed, creating totems of undying! Their magical discoveries led to allyships between the Aedari and the Vol'kar in the construction of things like the Trial Chambers and Ancient Cities.

Eventually, this subset was kicked out of villages due to unspeakable activities featuring the use of Lapis Lazuli and the construction of Ravagers. These outcasts turned to war and dark magics, fully developing a taste for conquest.

Now that we've covered the three ruling species of Olythos, let's move on to our second dimension.

THE SECOND REALM: NEHEN'VUR (The Nether)

(Pronounced “Neh-HEN-vur”)

The polar opposite to the realm of Olythos. While Olythos is a land of vibrance and life, Nehen'vur is a dimension with no love, no joy, no creativity at all! The land is segmented into multiple floating islands and mountainous, desert-like landscapes separated by seas of boiling lava. However, the existence of Basalt Deltas implies that this place used to be hospitable, even frozen over! However, any remnant of that ice age is long gone by now. Only one civilization stands high and proud, ruling the Nether with an iron— or more fittingly— a golden fist.

SPECIES ONE: THE BOARGRIMS (The Piglins)

The Boargrims are a militaristic civilization that has not only survived but thrived within the blazing hellscape of Nehen’vur. Despite the brutal terrain, the choking heat, and the endless threats lurking within the infernal realm, the Boargrims created a semi-successful structured society. They are not mere brutes, they have warriors, miners, chiefs, butchers, and even musicians, having created the only known music in the Nehen’vur: Pigstep. However, this isn't how it always was.

The Ice Age of Nehen’vur predates its current infernal state by many years. This environment is where the Boargrims first came to be. Life was difficult, sure, but it was survivable. It was the Boargrims, in their relentless drive to dominate Nehen’vur, who changed everything. As their civilization advanced, they turned from mere warriors into an industrial powerhouse, forging machines of war, great bastions, and smelteries that churned out Netherite weapons and armor in unprecedented numbers. Their rise to power was accompanied by rapid expansion, massive blackstone factories, soul-fueled engines, and vast industrial zones scarred the landscape. But with progress came consequence. The very machines that propelled the Boargrims to dominance also choked the sky with smoke and fumes, flooding Nehen’vur with greenhouse gases. The glaciers that had once defined the realm began to crack and melt, and the permafrost that coated the ancient terrain turned to slush. Rivers of ice became floods of molten lava, entire ecosystems collapsed, and in mere generations, Nehen’vur was transformed into the blazing hellscape it is today.

The Boargrims had succeeded in reshaping their world, but at a terrible cost. The cooling balance that had once allowed them to expand vanished forever, leaving behind a land of eternal fire and suffocating heat. The industrial empire they built could no longer sustain them, and their ambition to rule pushed them toward their next goal: Olythos, the realm beyond.

But they were met with bitter resistance. The Aedari and Khari tribes united against them, casting them back into the fiery hellscape of Nehen’vur. With their attempt at spreading their empire failed, the Boargrims were forced to retreat to the ruins of their former empire, struggling to reclaim even a fraction of what they once held.

Their once-thriving empire now lies in ruin. The Boargrims were not always in this post-apocalyptic state. They were once the undisputed rulers of Nehen’vur, constructing blackstone fortresses, towering obsidian citadels, and weapons of pure Titanite, the strongest material known to boarkind. Unlike the Aedari and Khari, who relied on magic, the Boargrims mastered machines, steam-driven war engines, great smelteries, and monstrous siege weapons. But, now all of that is gone. The Titanite they once used is now scattered deep below ground, and in small Titanite scraps. Now, they only have the next best thing: Gold. Gold holds an almost sacred value among them, not just as a resource but as a symbol of status, wealth, and survival. Their entire trade economy revolves around it, and they adorn themselves with golden armor and ornaments, marking their hierarchy and distinguishing themselves from the mindless Goretusks (Hoglins), feral beasts that share their brutish ancestry but none of their intellect, behaving like wild animals.

Their society has definitely fallen from its glory days, even if they're still surviving and thriving within Nehen'vur. However, they're not the only society to fall from grace...

THE THIRD REALM: NYSITHEA (The End)

(Pronounced "Nih-SITH-ee-uh")

Once proud architects of Olythos, the Aedari fell to their own hubris, unleashing an ancient horror that shattered their world apart: The Wither. As punishment, they were exiled into Nysithea, an abyssal void painted with floating desaturated islands, the end of the line, where they were stripped of their humanity and reshaped by the realm’s natural magical telepathic and telportation properties.

The Aedari's obsession with escape led them to slaughter all but the final of the great dragons, harvesting their wings in a futile attempt to break free from Nysithea. This act of desecration sealed their fate, binding them eternally to the abyss and mutating them into the creatures that now haunt the void: The Abyssdwellers, also known as The Voidwalkers.

SPECIES ONE: THE ABYSSWALKERS (The Endermen)

The Abysswalkers are the only living remnants of the Aedari, their bodies elongated and warped by centuries of abyssal exposure. Silent and watchful, they retain some manner of their old intelligence, though it is now buried beneath eons of mutation, only able to communicate through warbled and distorted speech. They are obsessed with structure, instinctively rearranging blocks in a futile attempt to reconstruct the homes they lost. They have the ability to warp across landscapes and dimensions, constantly teleporting in a final near futile attempt to return home. Some manage to teleport back to Olythos successfully, but unfortunately, most are left to wander the vast desaturated isles of Nysithea until the day they die.

SPECIES TWO: THE UMBRITHALLS (The Enderlings)

The broken, malformed children of the Abysswalkers, mutated further into monstrous shapes. Their minds have fully succumbed to the abyss of Nysithea, driven by nothing but hunger and rage. Unlike the Voiddwellers, the Umbrithralls are purely predatory, their forms grotesque and unstable. They have multiple variants, such as: The Veylkin, The Thrynnkin, and The Nyzokin (The Watchlings, The Blastlings, and The Snarelings from Dungeons). These beings infest the ruins of the Shattered Bastion.

SPECIES THREE: THE DREADSENTINELS (The Endersents)

Carved from the bones of The Isles of Nysithea itself, the Dreadsentinels are eternal guardians, each charged with protecting a Severed Eye (Eye of Ender), a relic that could potentially re-open the gateways to Olythos. Unlike its lesser variants, the Dreadsentinels retain individuality, each bearing a name and a function within the abyss.

- Vorr’kaal : The Savage Eye

- Kyrox : The Ravenous Eye

- Xyrrith : The Blight Eye

- Tza’laar : The Reaping Eye

- Velmuth : The Binding Eye

- Druun : The Spiked Eye

Each Dreadsentinel is bound to their Severed Eye, and should all six be gathered, they hold the power to reopen the Rift of Olythos.

SPECIES FOUR: THE VOIDSPAWN (The Endermites)

The Voidspawn are more than mere pests, they are larval forms of Voiddwellers, a part of themselves released from shattered Void..pearl? (I still haven't come up with a satisfying name for them.) Each Voidspawn is an embryonic Abysswalker, a piece of an Enderman’s soul splintered into an insectile form. Over time, should they consume enough of the void’s essence, they undergo a metamorphosis, shedding their hard purple shells and growing into a full-fledged Voiddweller. This process is slow, but it is the key to the Abyssdwellers' asexual reproduction.

SPECIES FIVE... Kinda... : THE RESTLESS HEART (Heart of Ender)

The Orb of Dominance itself. Some say it is the abyss itself, an unfathomable intelligence that lurks beneath the fabric of reality. Others claim it is the very entity the Aedari sought to destroy in Olythos. Some call it god. Some call it power. And should the Severed Eyes ever be reunited, the Restless Heart will stir once more, its waking heralding the return of something far worse than exile... annihilation.

SPECIES FIVE (ACTUALLY THIS TIME:) THE FINAL ASCENDANT (The Ender Dragon, aka Jean)

Before the Aedari's exile, Nysithea was ruled by a pantheon of Ascendants, primordial dragons that flew in the dark night sky. The Aedari, in their arrogance, hunted them down, believing they could harvest their power to return home. With her kin slaughtered, the Last Ascendant sealed herself within the Abyssal Crucible (that weird bedrock portal in the End), a chamber deep within Nysithea where it lay in waiting, guarding the last gateway between realms. The Voiddwellers now seek to finish what they started (hence the achievement if you slaughter the dragon being "Free The End"), but the Last Ascendant will not fall so easily. Will the Last Islanders slaughter the last of these fabled dragons, or will they too succumb to the abyss? Only time will tell.

In my headcanon, exposed hands are considered nudity in villager culture. Due to this, villagers only expose their hands out of their robe to use them or for intimacy with their lover. Steve, his pseudomemories of human culture giving him the assumption that villagers do the same, offered a handshake to a villager once, oblivious to the outrageously lewd gesture he was making.

In conclusion: Steve’s accidental rizz

Golems And Summons

"There will always be a distinct difference between sentience, and subordinance, one thinks and chooses to do as it does, while the other is challenged, ordered, to do an only purpose.-" -Nadalia Dunes

(yes even the bluff is here)

The constructs of all dimensions.

Golem: "a construct made with soul source."

Golems are made of a small source of soul and constructed in a physical body of varying material. Being embued with soul, the golem in question is given the ability to think, to feel.

The more soul a golem is given, the more it's able to communicate, adapt, and thrive. for example if a golem is not given enough soul source, it will act akin to a child, while a golem with a high amount of soul source, it will be connected to the soul it imbues, taking on traits and even a voice if it lives long enough.

"-With these differences however, my son, they both share one factor, the unmovable loyalty that comes with the construction of a golem." -Nadalia Dunes

On unfortunate but bittersweet circumstances, a golem may lose it's creator, but will grow and in turn embody the creator in personality. and may even take on a nomadic life, living as another being in the according dimension. it will make a name, a life, find love, but will never die. it cannot die, for it is not alive to begin with.

Beings of Unlimited Power but Limited Choices.

Such beings are a marvel to see in the wild, like an bluff or a breeze, but to see a summon appear infront of your eyes can be a whole new form of experience. depending on the element you wish for your summon to embody, it will await one command, and it will never stray of it's path.

(yes born in chaos is in this world >:3)

Allays are one of the only summons that have no known creator, ledgend says that they were made by the hosts themselves, to inspire and give hope to all who see their visage. Though in a mysterious form of spite, the spell that the Umevande made was to go against the very nature of the allay, becoming a vessel of discord and destruction known as a Vex.

Vexes and Allays are tricky in nature, but one seeks to do more harm then good.. on the behalf of the vex's summoner.
