Fecund

Leader
Matsudana, The Inimitable

Populace (general):
Most of the denizens of the Fecund living outside of its capital city are similar to the humans of the Blood and Barren lands, although they are somewhat paler due to living beneath the dense forest canopy of their home; or within the vast Karst cities where they are sheltered from direct sunlight for most of the day. The complex economy of the Fecund has meant that it's average citizen is not likely to perform manual labour, meaning that most have undeveloped musculature when compared to the more hardy folk of The Blood Lands.

Populace (Aja):
The people of Aja are uniquely suited to their underground dwelling and have been adapted to be that way by Matsudana himself. They are even paler than their karst dwelling kin and noticeably shorter. They have enlarged eyes so that they can make the most use of what little available light they have underground. They have a finely developed sense of touch and the ability to feel even slight vibrations allowing them to navigate easily even in the densely populated tunnels of Aja.

Populace (Osanyin):
The population of Osanyin are Matsudana's own chosen people. Each one bears a unique and hand crafted form thanks to the attentions of Matsudana. There are a few nobles who have enough influence that they never come to Matsudana's attention and may maintain their original bodies; but most become the object of his attention before long and find themselves reshaped into something that The Inimitable finds better suited to their personalities, or his needs. Often these changes are wrought upon their flesh without consent, and there are those nobles who might choose to avoid the changes if they could, whilst the lowborn welcome the gifts of their lord gladly.

Warrior Cast (Wraith):
The most common soldier of the Fecund are the wood wraiths, so called for their appearance of living, or even possessed wood. Wraiths are taller and leaner than the humans, but still bear a resemblance to the human shape. Their skin is rough and pale green; each has unique brown mottling and a subtle but unmissable green glow that betrays their nature as Anathema. These are the soldiers created by Matsudana to stand in defiance against the Thrive and Flourish, and as such each is more than a match for a mere human opponent.

Beliefs:
The Fecund have few superstitions to speak of and are not given to excesses of religious fervor. They believe that Matsudana is divine in his own right and that they are bound to him, as liberator and shaper. This is true in so much as every member of the Fecund is descendant from the few lowborn Flourish that followed him from their home lands and onto the central continent. Without him those who now call themselves Fecund would still exist only as a serf population within the Flourish. It is for this reason that those nobles not able to avoid his inevitable attentions are still content to live an ever mutable existence, alongside the more eager lowborn families.

The Sanguine Age
Exsigua

Willow (former Governor)

Osanyin (Capital)
The Capital of the Fecund nation. This place is the seat of Matsunda and his royal family. Most here are related to him and all take a form that pleases him. Thus Osanyan is known as The City of Vicissitude as its people are likely to take different forms without warning and at his whim. The city also plays host to Matsunda’s allies and close acquaintances, from the Verdant emissaries to well-travelled statesmen of the Ashkai. As with all Fecund cities, the construction was performed with the aid of Tsushima and wrought of rock directly from the strata below. Osanayin is the greatest of the karst cities and within its overgrown stone walls lays a labyrinth of markets, noble house, peasants' quarters and much more beyond, all arranged on top of one another like a giant stone hive. At the pinnacle of the karst is the grand palace of Matsudana itself, resplendent in all its glory and visible from the city's interior chasm.

Oshosi
Oshosi is a war front. The city has changed hands innumerable times, and was most recently returned to Fecundian rule, at the closing of the Sanguine Age. It was the general Exsigua who led the army that defeated the occupying forces, who earned the epitaph Liberator for doing so. Though in truth when Exsigua came to Oshosi there were none to liberate, and only Thrive occupied the city. Now repopulated by the Fecund people, Oshosi still bears the scars of its prolonged occupation by Thrive in the form of a weed that will not cease growing, and cannot be removed from the walls; Tunnel Root. A strong military presence is maintained at Oshosi, and it is from here that the Fecund launch their attacks at Thrive, when they are in a position to do so.

Oko
The settlement of Oko lies close to the border of the Duskwyld and Fecund territories. A huge settlement  created by the Fecund and their allies with the express intention of securing the borders with the Blood Lands by maintaining an population and military presence. Once one of the most important settlements of the Fecund, Oko has been greatly diminished in recent years. At the end of the Sanguine Age Oko was inhabited by wealthy families who wanted to secure their holdings far from the front line wars with Thrive and Flourish, however hostilities with The Duskwyld and The Blood Court meant that Oko too became a militarised settlement in preparation for an escalation in the conflict. Following the Gifts of the Master, Oko's future now hangs in the balance.

Aja
Aja is strategically important for military forces moving from the Eastern to the Western extremes of Fecund territory, and as the main farming settlement of the Fecund. It was home to a thousand or so Fecund and served as a vital trade hub for those who live in the lands around it and once played host to travellers here from the other Fecundian cities and visitors from the nations of Ashkai, Verdant, and Tsushima. Following the Gifts of the Master, Aja lay in ruins, and its future is uncertain to this day.

Willow Tree
The most common of the plants that make up the Fecund forest is the willow. The presence of this tree in it's hundred varieties gives the forest a beautiful and serene feeling.

Tunnel Root
An invasive species of plant found within the walls of Oshosi. The plant is a climbing vine withe deep green foliage and a blue flower and berry. Tunnel root is nearly impossible to extract from the rock in which it embeds itself as the roots grow deep into even the most solid basalt, or granite.

Bumblebrag
Bumblebrags are cumbersome oversized insects that are native to the forests of the fecund, and commonly employed by them as beasts of burden. They are deceptively strong; a bumblebrag is able to carry many times its own body-weight if correctly harnessed.They are capable of flight though generally unlikely to do so unless threatened, which has lead many a merchant of the Fecund lands to employ them to transport precious cargo; knowing as they do that bumblebrags are intelligent enough to make their own way to their destination if spooked.

Terrain:
As with most countries of the Flourishing Lands the Fecund is a densely forested area. The trees are deciduous and diverse in make up, with the most common genus being Salix. Flowering plants are uncommon but alongside trees there are a multitude of shrubs, particularly where the canopy breaks to allow for small glades to appear.

Climate:
At the heart of Fecund territory the climate is pleasant and well sheltered, enjoying both mild winters and warm summers. To the west there is a constant and unnatural chill of the cold winds blowing in from the Duskwyld.
