Feral Heart

Spiritum is a realm in which the veil between the living world and the spirit world is thin, allowing the tribes that have called Spiritum home for centuries to feed off the energy of the spirits, gifting them with abilities beyond any mortal. These spirits are not mere ghosts - instead, they are much more like nature nymphs, their souls taking the form of crystals that litter Spiritum. Each tribe has settled into the bay of these crystals, allowing them to gain control over their element, the spirits gifting them power.

The four tribes have lived together in harmony for centuries. The Tribe of Caeli, or the tribe of air. The Tribe of Nympha, or the tribe of water. The Tribe of Ignis, or the tribe of fire - and finally, the Tribe of Terra, or the tribe of earth; have found balance since their ancestors settled Spiritum as their home. They recognize that they could easily destroy each other - but each element cannot truly exist without it's other three partners. Thus, the tribes found peace, finding war a direct disrespect on both each other, and the spirits that grant them the powers to both protect one another, or destroy one another.

However, unrest has begun to rattle the Tribe of Ignis, a greed growing in their bellies. A recent death in the Tribe of Caeli leaves power in shifty hands. A Terra Shaman faces a mysterious death. A desire for power throws the natural harmony of Spiritum off scale, triggering the four tribes into a war that could destroy the very fabric of their lives, and the peace that Spiritum once could call it's own.

The Tribe of Nympha is known for being fiercely honorable and proud, and would much rather die a death of glory than living a life of shame. Although the water tribe can be a fierce force to mess with because of their honor, the Tribe of Nympha is also known for their diplomatic abilities. Nympha warriors are swift and fierce, although, The Nympha Tribe would much rather handle matters through words before resulting in the possibility of death. The Nympha honor all life. This tribe lives by a fierce honor code, but are overall very peaceful. The Nympha center their abilities around water.

The Nympha leader must be strong but honorable, and well-respected. The Nympha leader will be fighting against Caeli and Ignis alongside Terra, and will be fighting to preserve the natural order of Spiritum.

The Tribe of Ignis is known for brute strength, as many of their bending abilities do not only focus on fire, but on the strength of the body as well. This tribe will sometimes let it's pride get the best of it, and overstep it's boundaries with the other tribes. The Tribe of Ignis desires power, and fiercely protect their own. Ignis wolves are loyal to a fault, thus making this tribe the perfect army. This tribe is a dangerous force to mess with. The Ignis center their abilities around fire.

The Ignis leader will be an antagonist in this roleplay, and therefor must have a power-hungry drive. Ignis seeks control over all four domains, so this leader must be a dominating force. Alongside Caeli, Ignis will be fighting to take control over Spiritum.

The Tribe of Terra is intensely spiritual, and often keep to themselves. They tend to stay out of matters of other tribes, preferring to be hidden away in their lush domain. The Terra are rumored to be closest with the nature spirits than any other tribe. The Terra tribe is smaller in numbers, and rely on stealth, and the magic of the spirits. The Terra center their abilities around earth.

The Terra leader must be spiritual, and keep to their own. Terra will eventually join the battle alongside Nympha.
