Tamaya
Tamaya was the newest state added to America in 2015. Tamaya was formed as a refuge, a shelter against the war of invasion by english settlers.
Defences
- Tamayan had long been hidden away from people not of their blood, even Native Americans outside its bounds had forgotten it. The wards around Tamaya completely obfuscated it from view, allowing them to live in peace.
- They also have their Ward-Keepers, the ones who monitor and ensure the strength of the barrier.
- Then there's the Guardians, they are exceptionally skilled fighters who deal with issues within the barrier and the threats to the barrier.
History
When the english first settled in America things were ok between the two groups, but the inquisitors destroyed that. They were intent on stamping out magic, or at least any magic that did not benefit them. They finished most of England, and now they came to do the same here. Their new weapons and magical dampening abilities were devastating, and the Natives couldn't counter them quickly enough.
So certain tribes fled to Tamaya, while others stayed to either win the war or buy them time. The ones who fought knew the price of failure was subjugation, and it would cost their descendants a life of never knowing or setting foot in the safety of Tamaya. The people of Tamaya never forgot the sacrifice they payed, and were able to thrive under the protection of the wards and their guardians. But with more people with powers and dangers coming to close to home, they decided to help out. They revealed themselves in 2015 to the world, and officially became the 51st of America.
