Anvil Empire
Said to have gotten its name from its founder, the Golden Emperor Ferrarius I, Who, once a lowly blacksmith, took the legions of the city state Ceannus to the marshlands themselves with victory after victory, founding the first major nation on the Eldritch Isles. In response to the threat the United Men of the Cresent was formed. The UMC proved a thorn in Ferrarius I's side until his death. For generation after generation the two nations have traded blows, the territory surrounding the marshlands trading hands regularly. Neither are willing to go into the cursed swamps themselves though.
Recently Ferrarius IX has begun a campaign to unify the Farmers Federation, viewing the loose union as barbaric at best and anarchistic at worst.
Sterotypes of the Anvil people;
-Arrogant
-Patriotic
-Wealthy
These are not particularly true, most notably among the lower classes.
Common infantry soldiers of the Anvil dress in a type of Breastplate and often wield a medium shield and a short spear in the style of their nation. Each however posses the sidearm of a light warhammer [1d6/x2/3 lb./Bludgeoning] and a javelin.
Tamed Barbarians: These are the inhabitants of the Nisi islands, only recently captured. These are typically large men with mighty Dire Warhammers[1d12/ (19–20 x2)/10 lb./Bludgeoning] who have joined the organized legions of Anvil. These men have lost their ability to rage for their new civilized ways but retain their formidable strengths otherwise.
