First Age Rulers

in First Age

Here you will learn about many of the prominent leaders of the first age. Those who were willing to share or speak with the Collective of Pyrus’s many researchers. Though it should be noted, not every nation leader is listed as many lands have yet to even be discovered. A vast world stands before us, and we as a collective of information and research gatherers can only explore so much. Thus it is up to you as an adventurer to also learn and experience the world outside of this book. Meeting the many leaders and prominent members of society throughout the nations listed.
  Below you will find first hand accounts by the researchers as well as recorded information by the nation leaders themselves. Thus some may be in first person, others may be listed from a third person perspective, and some may flip around as information is tracked.
 

What are Ability Scores?

Well simply put, they represent your ability to accomplish certain tasks with different modifiers. Each is to give the understanding of how capable one would be by our classifications. However, other researching organizations and masters of the worlds game may depict these differently.
  Strength is your ability to lift a rock from the ground to above your head. Dexterity is the ability to dodge a rock that is falling on your head. Constitution is the ability to take a rock to the head and not need a doctor for your physical ailments. Though it should be questioned on how you are doing mentally after taking a rock willingly to the head. That would be your intelligence. Which by the way, the average individual is scored at an 8 intelligence. Thus you can clearly understand that to be even a 10, classifies you as slightly gifted. Wisdom stands as your ability to understand that rock soup is not literal. While your charisma is the ability to convince the barbarian to eat the rock filled soup.
 

What makes a leader of a nation?

An interesting question for each world's master to decide in honest truth. But how we define it, is through the understanding a large force that follows an individual. Not for a singular goal of conquest, but rather for the expectations of bettering their followers' lives.
 

What are Classes?

Guilds and organizations that individuals join as they become adventurers or seek out training to survive in this horrible world. These classes can range from simple wizards who study magic through written grimoires. To High One Warrior-Wizard that is an exclusive guild of ancient arcane artists who dedicate themselves to combat magic alone. Thus most adventurers seek out some sort of training long before they enter the world proper. As leaving a city without training is like trying to build an explosive without understanding fire safety. You can do it, but you're probably going to end up dead or eaten.
