It has a range of different biomes on the different islands, so go fish!
In general, though, it somewhat resembles England but with more mist.
oooooooooooo
Mono red.
•Our leader, a defender of all brave and true, King of our space-based faction:
•Valis, our army’s leader, and a trained battlefield tactician. Their wings blast away enemies and inspire our legions.
•Our use of magic is more subtle. The throne of our people is embedded with controlling magic to bring order across our nation. It also replies enemies.
•We travel across space using a massive vessel that encapsulates our whole population. It houses 100,000 people. It brings order through fear to all who’ve witness it.
Niicee!
You didn't perhaps, say, get the inspiration for your faction from a Warhammer 40,000 faction, did you?
Reason for colonisation: They like power and control, also resources
Commander / Leader of the Colonisation Expedition: Anthea, World Bender
The most powerful nymph from her plane, and one of the high leaders of her faction wich she is one of the founding members of, she has allways produced good results, and nymphs are a type of demigod in her plane, with all of that considered there are high expectasions of her, including the ones she has of herself.
She's also one of the most controlling people on her faction's higherups, wich says something when her faction is all about control.
Army Soldier:
Archons used to be angels that worked for another faction from this faction's plane, one ruled by gods and their worshippers; however the Acrean Empire defeated them, and has repurposed the angels into their own soldiers, putting them through a prosses called "sundering" that turns them into fully loyal archons with no sence of self by burning away their individuality, this also made them alligned with both red and white mana.
Archons now make up most of the non-mage soldiers of the Acrean Army.
Magic User:
Landmages are the most common type of mage in the Acrean Empire, they use the mana from the land itself to fuel their magic, both in tandom with the land, and to make it bend to their will, this makes them some of the most fearsome mages when properly trained for combat.
Expedition Vehicle:
Dalaran is but one of the many flying cities in the Acrean Empire, and one that is so massive it could be considered it's own subcontinent even if it was still landlocked.
Many resources have been allocated towards making it ready as a battleship for war and colonisation, with many civilians living in it along with the military, it's perfectly suited for a full planar colonisation and even the construction of interplanar gateways in the success of the expedition.
Extras:
I may make more extras later
Extra Extra: Keryn, Awakened Landmage
This one isnt a card for the faction but it's related to it so I felt like showing him here would be approtpiate.
Keryn used to be the perfect example of a mage that the Acrean Empire demanded for it's army, but after certain life events happened to him his sparked ignited, and his world was shook a bit, eventually he went rogue and is now working against Acrea; tho since Acrea is much bigger than him he does stop in other planes to rest from the issue a bit, also cause he's kind of an "Enemy Acrea" acording to Acrea, wich would translate into "An enemy of the people" haha.
Also he used to work in the faction of the military that Anthea commands, so if he handnt gone rogue he would have most likelly been part of the colonisation efforts.

I have had the idea of him being the leader for quite some time, but now it is official.
For my army, Pederan is the one in charge, however, the real question is recruitment. To this end, he is constantly conscripting. To represent this-

Pederan is not quite alone in his search for forbidden knowledge and powers. Other casters, abandoned and persecuted by their communities have come to him. They work on their own projects along with helping defend the lands they have claimed to work in.

Throughout the years, in the territories claimed by the Banned Ones, many weird, haunted, and cursed items have shown up. These items have been put to use by the Banned to make life easier and safer for them. The Navy of the Banned is made up of ships like these

Extras and another ship coming soon, along with a bit more story. Naglfar will be it's name.
The Banned Ones have started to arrive.
@Daedelus_The_All_Father do you want me to change the name?
Legendary creature. Flair is the leader of the Soulless Ones, a frighteningly powerful militant group of knights without form. They do not possess a body, and merely walk around as empty shells of armor (and thus, possess no creature type other than Knight). The beings are mostly bound to red mana, but dip into white, or even black, on occasion.
Army. The Soulless Ones are surprisingly emotional. They listen to Flair's orders blindly, but are filled with regret and guilt for their forest-razing actions.
Magic. Though it is likely not surprising, the Soulless Ones are focused around fire-oriented magic. This tends to come out in bursts of anger and hatred on Flair's end...
Transportation. On the shores of a lush forest arrives a massive vessel, the color of flames. Its grand hull rests on the shore. Its presence is a looming threat. Its walls carry an army ready to slash down the forests of Mystik for its own benefit.
Additional cards. Sk'nr'zr is Flair's advisor. She is a corrupted individual who prophesied Flair's rising from the flames of her home plane long before he actually ascended. Now, she stands by his side, waiting for him to relieve her of her ill-gotten immortality—a promise he has made, but has yet to fulfill.
Extreme noiceness!
and what are they?
as in, species wise or whatever
are they just souls bound to armor?
or minds bound to armor?
lmao
