In my upcoming E8 Gestalt campaign my players will be working to take back their Kingdom from an Empire. This Empire is currently on the verge of a War of Succession between 3 factions. Since i was partially inspired by MtG colors for these factions, each of them gets a color combo
The Frostcrag Mountains (Red/White)
A kingdom of Dwarves and Halflings in the Northwest. The Dwarves live predominately in the mountains with the Halflings occupying the lower slopes and the mountain valleys. The Dwarven Frost King Tormuk is their contender.
The Blightsea Archipelago (Blue/White)
An alliance of Human and Gnomish houses that occupy the large archipelago off the southeast shore of the Empire. The Gnomes live on the 3 largest islands while the humans occupy the coastal desert on the mainland and the smaller isles. The Gnomish High Mage Vorkur is their contender.
The Woodsea (Green/White)
A kingdom of Elves and *insert appropriate race here* that occupy a massive forest in the Norteast. Their contender is the Arch-druid Venlana.
The Fen Mire and the Broken Hills (Black)
The endless swamps of the Fen Mire are home to the multiple tribes of Lizardfolk, troglodytes and other swamp dwelling creatures. The Dark Talon Lizardfolk are the strongest faction in the Mire. In the Broken hills Goblinoids, Orcs and Gnolls fight for dominance. The three strongest factions are, The Bloody Hand Goblins, the Slash-Guts Orcs, and the Black Jaw Gnolls.
The players will be starting in the Fen Mire as Vampires that just woke up from a long sleep. Now, as you can see the Woodsea is missing its second race. I was thinking of Catfolk or Raptorans for the second race, but they dont see to scream "forest dwellers" to me. Any an all suggestions appreciated.
