    The Guardians of Meta, These great statues are said to depict 'Medaas' and 'Endross' the founders of the two great houses of Rahala and Severin, twin sons of 'Moloch' the first great emperor of the Vampyre nation. As boys they formed a great hatred of each other as arguments over who was the true heir to their fathers throne grew. However during the first war with the Lycans, Medrass and Endross Led a great charge from the city gates of 'Metatron' to break the ten year siege it had been under, driving the Lycan army back into the sea and forever burning their names into Vampyric history. Unfortunately neither brother survived the battle so Metatron became a holy city for Vampyres who worshipped the Sun god Setis.

    There might be a "Mak - something" city yet - the map is growing a few regions as it develops....
    Makvarskoy or Makavarskoje or Makarvaiya or Makoverets or Makovets(z) or Makarvaiyaskoje or -jaskoy, etc., hmmm, or Makattak. Makattakavskoje or -skoy.

    Why would Vamps worship the Sun god Setis??? Is that from Anne Rice or a derivative thereof?? I can't remember. Chris

    Wouldn't vampires worship a night deity, seeing that sun boils them (or is that going to be different).

    Anyways. This mod is amazing!!!

    The Sun worship idea comes from more modern Vampyric mythology ie; the Vampyre chronicles (Lestat always wanted to walk in the sun and feel human re; the body thief) , Blade, or John Carpenters 'Vampires', in most modern literature they tend to have a 'burning' desire to walk in the Sun, I wanted to make the Rahala the origin of that desire and as different from the Severin as possible, so apart from being 'pure bloods' and Arabic in appearance they are also followers of an ancient religion of Sun worship, makes sense to me..

    The Severin on the other hand are followers of a new cult 'The Black veil', which, as you'll see is linked more to the Dracula style of Gothic Vampyre, or even the 'Circus of Vampyres' from the Vampyre chronicles, they believe that their race is more 'Satanic' in origin, forsaken by God, or 'Gods' as it were.

    Yes, I see, and thanx for the explanation. I kind of thought it was from Anne Rice, seem to recall something like you explain. Still I didn't quite buy her logic but it does put a real twist on things and is ironic.

    Good idea IMHO with the Severin and thier logic and beliefs.

    Wow this mod looks scary.....which makes me more eager for its release. I love the map too, and the thought your putting into the factions is great. Cannot wait, I loved the original EOD, and I can't wait for the sequel.

    Will there be a movement bonus?
    The map is quite big and some settlements are far from other settlements?

    Quite a few regions have been added along the way so it's not a spacious as the original concept, and while there is still room the factions move pretty fast to close the gaps, that's if they can get past the rebels who are made of stern stuff.

    The factions do have various offices for ancillaries and there is one named for Metatron - I also need to make traits for generals who take specific notable towns, so if other nation took it you'd get 'Conqueror of Metatron' or something.... umm, Halie wording needed....

    The Rahala are ruled by an emperor 'Akashan', (a nasty piece of work) who has instigated the 'ethnic cleansing' of Vampyric society by ruling the Severin lords impure. Metatron was the center of the Vampyre nation until it was besieged and almost destroyed by Lycaos in the first uprising of the Lycans, after that it became a holy city and a shrine to the dead sons of 'Moloch' the first great emperor of the Vampyre nation, after his death his successor 'Amshur' gave the city over to the Severin as a military base which it was until the start of the civil war when it was once again the setting of a great battle, now Akashan has decided to rebuild the city and return it to it's former glory in the age before Moloch.

    As Mak said there are officers and ancillaries, one being.

    Prime of Metatron; This Vampyre has been awarded the rank 'Marshall' commander of all Rahala armies.
