[QUOTE="Steampunkette, post: 8376698, member: 6796468"] So right now I'm working on the Shuruti factions and such. I've got three off the bat. Kingslayers, Loyalists, and Seditionists. The Kingslayers wish to kill Amenophas, believing the curse is upon him, rather than the mines themselves. They have no greater goal than this, expecting the next set of steps to be self-explanatory. They do not truly consider the chaos that will result from killing Amenophas. The Loyalists wish to depose Amenophas, whether by violence or capitulation, and entreat Achelb to rule the city, under the idea that it's the independence from their creators that has doomed the city. And even if they are wrong about the curse, Achelb's wealth and knowledge would surely result in a better government. The Seditionists, on the other hand, believe that the problem isn't Amenophas himself, exactly. But that a Foreign King sits upon the Jeweled Throne of Shuruta as the Regent. They believe that only a Shuruti can rule the city without drawing down the curse. Whether by bloodshed or diplomacy, the Annam king and his line must leave the city to be ruled by the Shuruti for the curse to end. I'm also looking at the possibility of a fourth faction dedicated to learning the source of the curse, rather than killing or deposing the Regent in the hopes it'll resolve itself, possibly a second school of magic in the Scorpion lands, across from Lagan. One focused either on Abjuring and Protection or Evocation. I definitely want the Conjuration school in the world to be evil. Like outright demon-summoners and Necromancers coming out of that school.
