Sorcerer Kings

When the sorcerous cabal that triggered Hazlia's Fall was forced to flee the destruction of Capitas, they sought refuge across a chain of volcanic islands, which they themselves raised from the depths of the ocean. In their desperation, they eventually summoned an entire continent from the sea floor, transforming barren lands into thriving realms.

Today, the Elemental Courts of Erme, Who Moves the Oceans; Dyelin, Pyre of Gods and Men; Hormus, Who Lays Mountains Low; and Alessa, Weaver of Winds and Fates rule side by side with their reflections in the Elemental Domains. Their Enclaves are filled with relentless pursuit of knowledge, artistry, military prowess, and—most of all—sorcerous might. For the ultimate goal of these courts is absolute control over the Elements themselves, so they may maintain and dominate Balance’s Domain: the very world itself.

How do they play?

The Elemental Courts command an awe-inspiring force of magic and might, bringing regiments of Elemental soldiers, spirits of Air and Fire, and legendary malevolent beasts to the battlefield. Led by the Sorcerer Kings, these armies wield powerful elemental magic and a vast arsenal of devastating Rituals. Each spell and Ritual is tied to a specific Element, and when these magic-infused powers are unleashed, they empower Elemental forces of the same kind—revitalizing them, granting them renewed strength, and turning them into potent conduits for even greater spells.

But it’s not all about magic. The human element remains integral to the faction’s strength. Highly trained soldiers and archers—some of the best the world has to offer—stand alongside fully armored Mahuts, shattering enemy lines and opening opportunities for their elemental brethren to surge through, sowing chaos in the enemy’s ranks. With the perfect balance of sorcerous power and elite martial strength, the Elemental Courts can bend the battlefield to their will, striking fear into any who dare challenge their reign.
