Welcome to Gaia! ::

Within the realm of Aldhara mankind begins it's dawn. The realm stands populated by tribes of cave men, who hunt and gather to survive, and war with each other over resources. Men worship a pantheon of Gods, who grant magic to the Shamans, their faithful servants. All in all, mankind is a weak race, doing all they can just to survive. That changes now. The great warrior Ashumala has united the scattered tribes of his region under his command. With this force, he moves from the mountains his people inhabit into the Vale. The Vale is a valley containing the lushest land anywhere in Aldhara. It also quite dangerous, inhabited by creatures straight out of a nightmare or fairy tale. Plus, the people of Ashumala are not the only people moving into the Vale.

We shall prevail. With this land, mankind can begin to thrive istead of just scraping by. Mankind can be truly great. All we must do is follow Ashumala with heart and mind, and we will stand triumphant over all.

The Mission

A scouting party of Ashumala (us) was moving through a dry creekbed. Suddenly, we got attacked from all sides by pixies, these human-sized assholes. They fight as humans do, using the same weapons we do. They appear to be highly attractive men and women, with feathers for hair. There are 30 of us (scouting parties are large because these ambushes are not rare by any means), and we don't know hom many pixies there are. We must fight our way through if we wish to see tomorrow. We are armed with spears, atlatls (spear throwers), flint knives, and other "cave man" weapons. Our clothing consists of leathers, and the scouting party cpntains both men and women.
