The Jade Empire

Jade. A land shrouded in mystery. Surrounded by mountains, Jade is mostly comprised of a huge flood basin. Humid, hot, and full of rice paddies, Jade is ruled by a massive and powerful Empire. However, a recent plague has ripped through the lands, depopulating it and leaving the Empire in disarray. At this time, the wars between Charl and Vieni touched Jade, with expeditions seeking new lands to conquer that were not entrenched and fortified.

They found Jade...and started a whole new side of the war.

To be a Gifted in Jade is to be a lucky soul who was blessed by the Gods and the Ancestors. They are lifted out of the immovable lattice of the Empire's social structure, and placed into a special and lofty position. They are given unparalleled freedom...but only after being trained - indoctrinated - in the honor code of their land. The Golems of Jade are made of obsidian and jade, and are often seen carrying exotic and deadly weapons.
