IRASSHI
Legend Orgin - How Irasshi came to life
At first there were "creators", beings capable of tremendous feats both physical and mental alike, being able to create everything with just a wave of their hand. Well, almost everything, they could not create life, everything that they created was a machine, a fake or just a "dead" item. Sad because of the loneliness that they were surrounded with the creators began to think, and after days the wisest one came to an idea of creating a machine that would be able to create life. That is how the "Dreamer" was constructed, a machine of power to dream out life, create it out of a thought, and so realms, worlds, creatures, began to appear in the "Dreamers" dreams. It filled creators with feelings of happiness and joy they have never felt, blinded by that feeling they didn't notice a small detail. As years passed they slowly began to see their mistake though. The machine was no longer theirs, day by day they too became a "Dreamers" dream, and if one would wake up, the creators would vanish alongside with any other creature. Ghosts, phantoms, demons and any other race or species, were no good to protect the dreamer from waking up since they were all his creations so the creators, called up on their magic energies exhausting themselves almost completely and created "living" creatures. A race with body made out of magic energy, strong, swift,agile,durable, with the gift to wield powerful magic. They called this race Irasshi, and put them in a realm called Terra alongside their precious machine, leaving peace and dreamers sleep in their hands.
Terra - A little something about the Realm
Terra is a small dimension or as the Irasshi call it Realm in which they hold guard over the "Dreamer". Everyone visiting, will quickly notice it is quite fantasy based, Kingdoms of different races in war using siege machines, sword and magic, creatures out of fairy tales books such as pixies,trolls,ogres,orcs,dark elfs and many more roaming the land by night and day. But these dark times happen at the surface, as Irasshi live on flowers that are a lot taller than the tallest human building they got little to do with others problems. Main ruling races are Orcs with a capital in the mountains of dust on the north, Naro a human-like race with shiny blue eyes ,one with the most lands since they take occupation on east, north-east, and south-east, united kingdom of elfs on the south and south-west hidden in the so called "Living forest" and the west part is mostly ruins of the creators first cities, a favourite place for treasure hunters. Irasshi are in the middle this mess
Irasshi Themselves - Culture and Everyday Life
Culture
Irasshi are divided in to groups and each of this group has a task to fulfill. Each Irasshi upon birth is connected to one of the seven element spirits, steel,wood,earth,wind,water,fire,light. Spirits are different from each other just as any kind of creature so two Irasshi with a fire spirit can be differently talented with magic. As magic is the greatest of the creators gifts, its only natural that the rest of a young Irasshi life depends on that specific talent.
- Priests: Are the ones that rule the city of Irasshi passing others the will of the dreamer, only the most talented in magic can become one of this group. Mostly using the magic of the light spirit, there are of course priests which choose battle for their purpose wielding fire, or wind to scatter and destroy their enemies.
- Mages: These Irasshi are mostly from talented to average in the terms of magic, and specialize in offensive part of each element. They know little about protection magic not to mention having a body a little more fragile than any other Irasshi, so their life depends on others
- Protectors: These Irasshi specialize in protecting weaker members of their race, mostly standing side by side with a mage or priest, defending him even if it cost them their life. They mostly know protective spells.
- Warriors: Those with talent for a sword and a knack for some battle or protection magic become warriors. These brave souls are mostly sent down to the surface taking care of the biggest scums and evildoers, they are the executors of "dreamers" will.
- Loners: Loners are rare, they do not posses the power of magic since no spirit seems to take residence in their body. Instead they are bestowed with other special abilities such as faster regeneration of their body, or a mind that can not be broke by any psychic. having a loner in the family is bad luck and most Irasshi tolerate these individuals but do not accept them as equal.
