Ourworld:Ailokim

The magically inclined little Aaru, with some justification, insist they are a species above and beyond most other races of the world. Guardians of an undeniably powerful legacy their tendency to ‘civilise’ their area of the world and rebuild their lost glory upon the graves of lesser species has them viewed with some suspicion by neighbouring cultures. Of course they see their actions as advancing a greater good, but to more fully fathom their nature one must appreciate the sad history of this once dominant race.

History

Once upon a time the Aaru lived happily with their coevolved psionic cousins the Aalu. The Aaru speak insistently of the lost times when together their ancient cities reached high into the skies, their culture spanned the planet and their remarkable technologies and magics were able to twist the very reality of the world and all upon it. One day a dark omen in the form of a small asteroid fell from the sky and was seized by the Aaru as an intriguing research opportunity. Too late the Aaru discovered that it carried a hideous plague that after an incubation period slowly turned sentient life into powerful and extremely resilient carnivores. The plague caused increasingly erratic and eventually psychotic behaviour as the victims eyes slowly turned red, sinuous muscles worked with emerging talons and sharp teeth to slaughter the living. Worse still was the effect when the plague spread to the Aalu as they manifested extremely powerful psionic abilities that eventually proved too much for the highly advanced combined forces of the Aaru and Aalu to defeat. Fighting a losing battle the Aaru retreated to heavily fortified cities and tried to outlast the inevitable. The Aalu however were not content with the inevitable, while sheltering in the Aaru capital they combined their extraordinary psionic powers in a terrible ritual that doomed their planet to a great ‘Sundering’ in order to purge all upon it.

The ‘Sundering’ was a cataclysm of sorts that began about 1500 years ago an ended around 1000 years ago. It began with the appearance of a star in the night sky that continued to grow at an alarming rate, as it grew the temperature dropped rapidly freezing many life forms to death and destroying agriculture. The Aaru magics sustained their culture largely through this period. As this star of doom grew larger still the world began to get hotter again, and hotter still until the world was aflame. Again the powerful magics of the Aaru preserved them. The world erupted into rivers of lava and began to break up, mountains drifting slowly into the sky as the world broke itself apart. Many perished at this point, though many in main population centres persevered though extraordinary arcane feats never fully understood. Surviving on islands of molten rock the few remaining Aaru cities were then slammed at vast speeds into other vast rocks and finally into the fateful star that doomed them. That a few hundred powerful individuals survived was miraculous and a testament to extraordinary powers that have now been lost.

The great sundering destroyed virtually all of Aaru civilisation, land, lore, technologies, magics, spirit, their ability to bear offspring and even drained the pigment from their hair. The handful of Aalu psionicists that also survived were initially hated for what they had done, though a grudging respect eventually formed between them, they were never to be welcome in Aaru cities again. Of the mere hundreds of Aaru that survived the disaster most lapsed into despair, a few however used what gifts they had left to try and preserve their race and culture. Using some remnants of their arcane lore and technologies they created three ‘Soulifactories’; strange devices able to create life in the form of one of three young Aaru chosen for their unique qualities. As a result all Aaru under the age of 900 bear a striking resemblance to each of these chosen three. There are a slowly diminishing number of unique and venerable Aaru that remember the sundering, a selection of whom form the Majestic Twelve; the Aaru’s ruling body. These Twelve have overseen the slow salvaging of elements of their former culture and wealth for over a millennium. Today the Aaru number around 20,000 and occupy four city sites on the Western continent of Elysium. The embittered Aaru have been peaceful from necessity; painfully aware of the slow rate at which they are able to reproduce they value their lives highly. So far the greatest Aaru scholars and scientists have failed to replicate the original ‘Soulifactories’ or discover additional ways of reproducing themselves. In their experiments however they have created/bred a slave race that they find useful for industry and warfare known as the ‘Umberkim’.

The Umberkim are the result of the Aaru’s best efforts at creating a fourth more efficient Soulifactory around 500 years ago. Unfortunately all they could manage were a dull witted but powerful mutant race with a short life span. The rapidly produced Umberkim number around 80,000 spread across the five Elysian cities and serve as the mainstay of Elysian military, agriculture and industry. Maturing quickly, Umberkim slaves live on average for a mere 25 years in part due to the hazardous tasks given to them by the Aaru. Augmented with the powerful magics and technology of their masters, the combined Aaru/Umberkim military are one of the most formidable standing armies in the world, though have seen relatively little action. The ‘special forces’ division of the Aaru military on the other hand is famed for it’s daring and bewildering raids across the span of the planet. This brings us to another defining characteristic of the Aaru.

The Immunisation

Aaru life is a precious commodity that will not normally put at risk, with one exception; Psionics. Since the early days of rebuilding, the majestic twelve have decreed ‘The Immunisation’ requiring that Psionicists and Psionic creatures and users either be sent to Aeon for re-education or eradicated from the face of the planet (the Aalu have been excepted). The Aaru fear that remnants of the disease that destroyed their former culture may have survived the Sundering and that the removal of psionic users from the world will nullify key capabilities of those diseased to destroy them.

All Aaru citizens are aware that psionic power use must be reported to central council, though only a handful know what happens next. Over the last millennium the Aaru special forces have become adept at hunting down individuals, and the families of individuals, that exhibit Psionic power. Often turning up shortly after a Psionic child is born to take it for re-education and then return it some weeks later. Despite their extreme discretion and attempts to frame the Unseelie for these disappearances their ‘immunisation’ policy has generated a certain amount of animosity towards the Aaru, indeed folklore often unfairly blames the Aaru for still births, crop damage, dead livestock and other mysterious disappearances.

Personality & Relations

Aaru tend to be embittered but proud, self righteous and ruthlessly pragmatic. It would be fair to say they regard most other sentient races as equally inferior and have fairly high standards as to what they actually call sentient. Low-sentience races (such as the Umberkim) are basically considered in pragmatic terms as others races might consider animals.

Aaru society can be thought of in terms of a pyramid where the Umberkim make up the bulk at the bottom, with graduating middle classes of Aaru deferring power to a series of lords who defer to the Majestic Twelve who interpret the will of their chief deity Ma’at. This highly hierarchical society in which the underclass is exploited is maintained through a consummately powerful information control regime. From birth all members of Aaru society are spoon fed information campaigns that reinforce individual roles, classes, policies and frames life in such a way that virtually everyone is not merely content with their station, but passionately devoted to it and Aaru advancement. Those outsiders who venture into Aaru cities and are vocal about their failure to appreciate this order of things have been known to disappear and then reappear with more moderate opinions.

Since the Sundering the Aaru have carried a terrible curse in their blood and will never be able to bear children, relying instead on magics and technology to reproduce themselves. This combined with information campaigns has led to a powerful sense of solidarity with their vat grown siblings and they will support a fellow Aaru (though not an Umberkim) in virtually any situation. The whole of Aaru society in one way or another is geared towards the reestablishment of their culture’s lost glory. In practical terms they are limited by their slow reproduction rate and have only constructed a few large cities. Many feel however that it is only a matter of time before the Aaru rediscover the method of constructing new Soulifactories and prepare themselves for the inevitable expansion this would allow.

An average Ailokim

Physical Description

Originally from a high gravity world Ailokim are constructed from fundamentally different stuff to the 'normal' races of this world. Their short bodies, elongated limbs and largish heads have an almost insect like quality about them. Ailokim are sometimes likened to stocky human children that have grown off on some sort of unsettling tangent. Ailokim gain their common name from the lack of pigment in their hair and their extraordinarily long life span (anywhere up to 1200 years). They adhere to strict dress codes and a ritual marking on their forearm that defines their role in society and station for which they train from ‘birth’.

Their creations, the Umberkim, on the other hand are a hairless, far stronger, hardier race resembling an oafish human with thick leathery skin. Their dull wits and short lifespan make them ideal slaves to further Ailokim hegemony. Occasional individuals have transcended their programming and escaped to the new world where they have made lives for themselves as free men. The Ailokim however maintain that any of Umberkim blood are their property and must be returned to them or killed.

Alignment

Ailokim are very supportive of their own and generally see Ailokim advancement as the most noble of objectives. Their relations with other races are less transparent, Ailokim practice slavery and have during their expansion been guilty of instigating some grievous local wars. They consider races like the Umberkim (and several others) as others might livestock. The more enlightened races, can with work, garner a degree more respect (especially the Laideann) though are viewed of course as inferior, or more pragmatically as pawns in a grander scheme. However if an Ailokim gives his word, even to the livestock, he will strive to keep it as a mark of Ailokim civility and order. Despite outward appearances the Ailokim’s governing body (the Majestic Twelve) and high ranking military awkwardly classify as a Lawful Evil. Ailokim commoners on the other hand tend towards their cultures projected image of neutrality and though some stray a little it is almost unheard of to find a chaotic Ailokim.

Religion

In short Ailokim worship the past. In more pragmatic terms they worship their ancestors who are the most direct conduit to great spiritual powers that are the gods. Ailokim see Gods not as specific entities but rather as forces of the universe. These forces find embodiment as specific demigod ancestors that represent each force.

Though others call them by differing names the Ailokim Gods represent these concepts, followed by the Ancestor worshipped as their avatar:

BAIG (War/Death) The most recent and revered avatar of Baig was a fiery young Ailokim called Kraed Reos Hammerstein I. Kraed rose quickly through the ranks of the Ailokim combined forces eventually leading the final assault on the last Tallastian city where he died valiantly as he steered his kinetic carrier into the enemies vanguard, sealing the battles outcome.

Rerth (Valour/Protection) The first and current leader of the Ailokim Combined Forces - Goethral Immaltrium is revered for his careful decisions and tactics about when to war and when to consolidate; these have been central to Ailokim domination of their region.

Semile (Healing/Life) Revered since the first days of the Ailokim’s arrival here Learth Sommstein resurrected countless survivors after planet fall later sacrificing himself in the creation of the first Soulifactory.

Neurod (Knowledge/Magic) A still living avatar Teark Cromming II created the Soulifactory ‘Umber’ is a prolific researcher and currently leads the Majestic Twelve governing the affairs of Ailokim society.

Knive (Trickery/Luck/Chaos) Knive's avatar 'Juntar Hemmon' in the early days set up the Ailokim Secret Psion Squads (or ASPS) and his ‘colourful’ exploits are the stuff of Ailokim bedtime stories and his eventual demise a frightening warning about the horrific nature of Psions.

Freon (Nature/Animals) Arimus Linton preserved and adapted many of the Ailokim agricultural rituals and practices to their new world flora and fauna, laying a strong foundation for Ailokim growth.

Rinwal (Travel) Torton Senwick was responsible for the first survey and map of the new world, also detailing the capacities of it’s various inhabitants. His journals, though sadly outdated, are a fascinating read that serve still as a guide for wayward Ailokim. Blin (Law/Money) First leader of the Majestic Twelve, it was Blin’s administration that laid the foundation for the Ailokim to attain their position of mercantile power within the world economy.

Fire: The last recognised avatar of fire was a troublesome pyromaniac Ailokim called Trousel Erea Tichon II. He was responsible for a devastating elemental fuelled fire that consumed the poor quarter of Megara and he was executed some time ago for his crimes.

Earth: A devastating earthquake was traced to a disillusioned mage experimenting in his subterranean chambers beneath Aeon. The name Jeorth is retold to warn others from such dabbling.

Air: Tornado activity was able to penetrate the wards of Megara due to the assistance of a small cult led by one Neamen Reos Architoo II. Despite the constant pursuit of the ACF he is still at large.

Water: A bizarre Ailokim wizard named Rontar Leart Cosmin III has been sending confusing omens of doom from within the great ocean for many decades now. The ACF has been reluctant to spend resources pursuing him as he seems to pose no actual threat.

All have sanctioned churches devoted to them with the exception of the 4 elements. Warped cults have developed in the dark corners of the Ailokim culture that pay homage to these deities.

Cities

Aeon

The mountainous centre of Ailokim civilisation and culture it was here that the survivors of the sundering made their stand and started to rebuild what was lost. The highly defensible city has grown over a millennium and aided Ailokim control over both sides of the Hypothian range. The first Soulifactory ‘Erea’ was built here and has produced around 10,000 souls. Aeon serves as a nursery for young Ailokim as they are trained for their initial roles in the world. It is houses the home legion of the Ailokim army and the council of elders. It is rare for outsiders to be allowed into a city as important as Aeon.

Nubt

It was a proud moment when Ailokim society founded it's first coastal satelite colony around 500 years ago. It signified the begining of an expansion that over stretched Ailokim man power and created the conditions that necessitated the creation of the Umberkim. Nubt today is a thriving metropolis and centre of trade for Ailokim civilisation. Though still rigid and heirachical by world standards it contains the largest racial & cultural diversity of any Ailokim settlement.

Zae

The second stage of Ailokim expansion was made almost necessary by the increasing population of Umberkim slaves that have poured ceaselessly from the spawning vats. Zae was founded to localise control of the rich southern agricultural and forest resources liberated from an uncooperative regime of humans known as Tallastians. There are nine Umberkim for every Ailokim settler that reluctantly takes their post here.

Ptah

For similar reasons Ptah was founded on the western coast, though it’s pleasant climate and coastal location make it a far more popular posting and also a holiday destination. What Ptah lacks in terms of good farm land it makes up for in fishing and tourism for overworked Ailokim.

Philoxenite

A simultaeous expansion northwards was also considered necessary to renew dwildling mineral resources and create a defensible out-post between Ailokim settlements and the sometimes tempermental dwarven residents of the Northern Ranges, who are prone to misunderstandings of Ailokim intent.

Technology

Though a great deal has been lost to the Ailokim many powerful magics and useful technologies survived and more are being researched with each passing year. Ailokim casters pride themselves on having the greatest library of magics in the world. Over the centuries many Ailokim magics have however been carelessly traded with the Keltoi whose mastery of the mystical arts now rivals and in some areas exceeds their own.

Undoubtedly the Ailokim’s most powerful magics are preserved pre-Sundering ritual magics that tend to influence the construction of their cities and the crafting of various objects. Ailokim cities for example are encircled with powerful protection and detection wards, their agriculture is made more abundant, water cleansed, and even localised weather controlled to a degree. In the category of item/object creation we see examples of solar focusers that sit ominously upon the walls of their cities. Another, and recognised signature of Ailokim culture and warfare, is the kinetic mat; a magically enchanted sheet of rare star metal that glows brightly and can fly at a fair clip.

Language

Ailokim base languages are Ailokim & Umberkim. Ailokim value their language as a sacred bridge to their glorious past to be used by none but they. In day to day life they speak a common dialect that has become known as Umberkim, though they are often fluent in other languages typically preferring more eclectic languages over other humanoid languages. Umberkim can speak common and can sometimes understand Ailokim, however are punished harshly if they speak the language of the masters.

Racial Traits

(Medium Humanoids)

Ability scores for Ailokim & Umberkim are based on which of the four Soulifactories they have been created at. Three separate and complimentary Ailokim were selected as the paragons of their culture and were then inserted into the first Soulifactories as the templates for future Ailokim creation.

Although their genetic potential is predetermined an Ailokim’s developmental experiences in early life can potentially emphasise one or two ability scores at the expense of others. Specifically an Ailokim can alter 2 of their base ability scores by a maximum of +2 by taking a commensurate minus to other separate ability scores.

Soulifactory ‘Erea’ STR:10 | DEX:15 | CON:12 | INT:15 | WIS:12 | CHA:14

Soulifactory ‘Laert’ STR:12 | DEX:12 | CON:14 | INT:10 | WIS:15 | CHA:15

Soulifactory ‘Reos’ STR:14 | DEX:12 | CON:14 | INT:12 | WIS:14 | CHA:14

To reflect the narrow options open to Umberkim in society they may only add a single +2 and its commensurate -2 to the template below.

Proto-Soulifactory ‘Umber’ STR:17 | DEX:14 | CON:14 | INT:8 | WIS:8 | CHA:12

Umberkims do not receive Marks of Destiny (like their Ailokim siblings) instead at first level an Umberkim may chose a single bonus feat from the following: Endurance, Run, Toughness, Improved Toughness, Great Fortitude or Skill Focus Profession/Craft (player’s choice).

[These are designed to be balanced for 32 point character creation campaigns and should be adjusted for differing campaign power levels]

Racial hatred toward Psions & Psionic Creatures (+1 Hit & Dam). Ailokim receive a +2 Racial Bonus on Ritual Magic skill checks.

Marks of Destiny (Su) Ailokim are ritually tattooed at birth with one of six unique markings that grant a special power.

Tau (Strength) +1 bonus on strength checks and strength based skill checks.

Sein (Grace) +1 bonus on dexterity checks and dexterity based skill checks.

Neur (Mind) +1 bonus on int checks and int based skill checks.

Weon (World) +1 bonus on wisdom checks and wisdom based skill checks.

Juugz (Soul) +1 bonus on charisma checks and charisma based skill checks.

At the age of 100 years an Ailokim is recognised as coming of age and is rewarded in a special ritual with an additional mark of destiny. This additional tattoo increases the bonus from the marks to +2 and depending on which of the 9 combinations grants an additional benefit.

Tau-Sein: When an Ailokim deals damage from a sneak attack or crit they gain a +2 dodge bonus to AC until their next turn.

Tau-Neur: (Sw) Twice per day this tattoo allows an Ailokim to expend a prepared spell and gain it’s level to hit and damage for 1 round.

Tau-Weon: (Im) An Ailokim with this combination can elect to take a -1 to hit and damage at the start of a round to gain an insight bonus of +2 to will saves till the beginning of their next turn.

Tau-Juugz: (Sw) Once a day this combination allows it user to add their strength bonus to a charisma based check so long as they are unarmoured and are revealing their physique.

Sein-Neur: This combination allows an Ailokim to use their dexterity score instead of their normal ability score for the purposes of determining bonus spells.

Sein-Weon: (Sw) By expending one or more turn/rebuke attempts this combination allows it’s wielder once a day to add a metamagic effect to a spell they are casting, with no effect on the spells casting time or effective level. The number of turn/rebuke attempts expended must equal the normal level adjustment of the metamagic feat. The Ailokim must have the metamagic feat & cannot cast a metamagic/spell combination of a level that they wouldn't normally be able to cast.

Sein-Juugz: (Im) Twice a day as an immediate action this combination allows an Aiokim to expend either a turn/rebuke attempt or an unprepared spell slot of at least 1st level to gain 1d6 damage on a sneak attack or an unarmed strike.

Neur-Weon: This combination allows an Ailokim if they leave a spell slot unfilled for the day to add the level of that spell slot to the DC to resist spells of that level or lower.

Neur-Juugz: (St) Once a day as a standard action this combination allows its user to ‘reclaim’ a spell already cast in the last 3 rounds by expending a spell 1 level lower.

Weon-Juugz: (Im) This combination grants the Ailokim the ability to sacrifice a turn/rebuke attempt and gain 1 effective caster level, or to sacrifice a prepared spell and gain it’s level to a turning check.

A Day in the Life

Dictum of the Twelve

Ailokim society has always strived to bring civility to barbarism, order to chaos and enlightenment to those less fortunate than ourselves. Let me stress that Ailokim have always been very civilised and shone as a role model before a young world. There are however always detractors, saboteurs and those just plain envious of how civilised we actually are. One Ailokim Dictum in particular has confused these malicious creatures consistently for centuries now. Unprepared to believe our assertions regarding the dangers Psions pose this world they would have us not kill the cancerous cells as they emerge to destroy us all. In our infinite civility we have discovered a breakthrough method that can destroy the cancer without killing the carrier. Though it will tax our resources heavily to implement this new method of ‘Re-Eduction’ it will silence our critics and allow them to more clearly see exactly how advanced and wondrous Ailokim culture truly is. From this day forth all Psions classed as ‘low threat’ are to be taken to the Re-Eduction Clinic at Megara for processing and then returned in their new non-malignant state. – The Majestic Twelve

ACF in Action

Lt. Major Brislow began to tense up, he knew the shadow walk ritual well and it was nearing completion. He could now sense the inertia of the carrier as it slowed to a cruising speed. He pulled his ACF gear into position and activated his night-vision. He wasn’t expecting too much trouble, but then psions sometimes had this way of knowing you were coming and it was his job not to take chances. His deputies followed his lead as he positioned himself at the centre of the arcane glyphs around which the five casters chanted. First came a euphoric feeling of strength and agility, then his movements seemed to blur and finally with a series of electrifying flashes they bent through a dimensional shift to their airborne destination.

Diving through the sky above their rural target Brislow began reciting the incantation and with split second precision cast it as they grew close to a thatched roof. He and his two comrades slowed to land gently beside the innocuous looking farm house and then with another brief incantation turned invisible. Unaccounted for, a dog at the side entrance began to bark. Brislow telepathically cursed prohibition 11a-df4 regarding the necessity of using invisibility after ground fall and cast again silencing the area. If this psion was a real threat then it’d know the ACF squad was here. Adjusting his ACF goggles he scanned for psion power signatures and loaded his handbow. No signals, no alarms, a good sign that they were just here to clean up a sleeper. After more permanently silencing the dog the squad entered and stealthed up the stairs…
