Avereaux
Explore Avereaux: The Nation of Stories and Legends!
Greetings adventurers!
Have you ever dreamed of living in a world where every action you take is part of a grand tale, where your deeds are sung about around campfires and immortalised in epic poems? Welcome to Avereaux, one of the nine captivating nations you can choose in Menhirs Fate.
The Essence of Avereaux
In Avereaux, life is a tapestry of stories and fables. The Avereaux are committed to doing what is right and just, even when it’s difficult, because they believe their actions will be recorded for posterity. Their culture is rich with music, poetry, and storytelling. Imagine a place where standing out in a crowd is a way of life – vibrant clothing, colourful attire, or an heirloom weapon, passed down and rich with stories. In Avereaux, the word “iconic” comes to life. How will you create a persona that everyone will remember, even if they don’t remember your name?
Social Dynamics
The Avereaux know that their legacy will shape future generations, so they form close bonds with family and friends, who are often one and the same. These bonds extend into their diverse adventuring parties, where each member’s unique talents complement the others. In the Avereaux military, for example, groups consist of healers, chroniclers, warriors, magicians, and crafters – each playing a vital role in the unit’s success. Think of it as the ultimate traditional adventuring party, where everyone’s contribution is celebrated.
Player Experience
As a player in Avereaux, you can expect a colourful, bright, and upbeat atmosphere. Despite the grim nature of recent events, the Avereaux refuse to let it bring them down. They lead by example, showing that even in times of war, they remain welcoming, cheerful, and bombastic. Picture yourself sharing stories around fires and singing songs in the streets. This nation takes pride in how people from all walks of life work together to achieve greatness. If you have a flair for storytelling or public speaking, you’ll find plenty to do here. But worry not – adventurers of all skill sets can find a home in Avereaux, where diverse talents support each other.
What Avereaux is Not
Self-serving: In Avereaux, the best stories are those with a great cast of characters succeeding or failing together, not alone.
Naïve: While the Avereaux are upbeat, they are not blind to the hardships of war. They are empathetic and respectful, mourning or being sombre when appropriate.
Look and Feel
Avereaux is the beating heart of the world of Menhirs Fate, with an optimism and enthusiasm about life that is reflected in their clothing. We’re heavily influenced by the “starting point” in fantasy media – the place worth fighting for when all around might be in disarray.
With that in mind, clothing in Avereaux is simple and pastoral in theme, with some “cottagecore” elements to complement the fantasy themes.
“Travelling gear”, short tunics in dyed colours, wrap-over layers that can be as versatile as possible and classic fantasy elements like wizard hats mix with comfortable bodices and stays and full skirts.
Comfort and practicality are key, and adventuring parties might commission matching vambraces or short cloaks to show their allegiance – which become keepsakes to tell the stories of their adventures in years to come.
A full in depth kit brief for this nation will be available at a later date. Stay tuned!
