Spoiler: The Outlast Company (Frontline company non-canon lore)

None of the described events are Lore-Approved, nor are they written with the intention to change the massivecraft lore/narrative. All described events below are from a non-approved non-canon perspective.


The make of Ottisil - one of Hadaria's cultural achievements - was in shambles. Mostly destroyed and partially brought to ash by the enemy. Preparations for a second strike from the coastal navy were in the works, but there was not enough time. Unless Ottisil could stand, the Regalians would sweep through the Hadaria empire. There was little chance to provide a stop here, as the warm bloods and their navy wielded mountains for vessels, made of tone timbers and metal, with blunderbuss canons that could shatter even the bones of hatchlings via proximity.
No, the enemy knew how to destroy coastal cities well enough. What survived of the small city of Ottisil could not be defended, and if defense was not possible, and retreat unthinkable, the only recourse is-

"Stay clear of the coastal front, out of line and sight and out of range of their artillery."
Stated Zzalangua to the temple-guards closest to them.
"Carry my words to the Krzallo, abandon the defense preparations, and set scouts upon the trails to prepare an ambush from their approaching troops. We will fight them in the burning jungle and they shall know of our resolve."

Few of the Ottisils warriors survived that day. The jungle and the village of Oanjigat burned days after, but the toll exacted on the Regalian forces gave the foreigners reason to pause. They had struck true and conquered a city stuck amongst deep swamp and charred jungle, which provided little benefit. In exchange they had expended a large portion of their forces. With their forces depleted along the beachfront, they could expect another assault by the allar to be more costly, and this cost outweighed the benefit. For now, the allar could keep their swamp. There were greater cities that were easier to topple.

Spoiler: The Outlast Company Description and Guide

Leadership

The "absolute" or overarching leader of the 1000 strong company is Zzalangua Mu-Yaotl. Though effective in frontline tactics and chaotic communication, Zzalangua has many weaknesses on the front. They have been considered rash and violent on the battlefield, especially in the face of lesser trained warriors, and in numerous instances, thinks numbers alone will win a fight. To counteract the rash and costly behavior of the Mu-Allar, Zzalangua Mu-Yaotl has a handful of company advisors. These advisors accompany wisdom ranging from tactics, intelligence, espionage, and treating of the wounded.​

Ranks

The organized structure of the company is not entirely linear. Officers are regarded as "Private Arbiters" and serve more as negotiators and decision makers, than as tacticians or field commanders. They are the second highest rank in the company.​

The third highest rank are "Hard Scales" or intermediate troops, who serve as veterans or the competent backbone of the companies military prowess.​

The fourth, and lowest rank are "New bloods" or conscripts, consisting of either young warriors and soldiers, or incompetent troops. Despite the level of rank, conscripts are not restricted from socializing with higher ranks, and a strong comradery exists between all members of the company, given the mu-allar leadership structure.​

Divisions

Zzalangua Mu-Yaolt commands three divisions, each consisting of roughly 330 troops. At minimum, 15 individuals of each division consist of medical and alchemical al-allar personnel, with the exception of one division which consists of conscripts and alchemical canon fodder.

The three divisions are ranked accordingly to experience in linear order:

Division 1: "The Feathers of Osstissa"

Division one is considered to be the Outlast Companies finest group of experienced personnel, with warriors requiring either a completed war feat, 7 years of military experience, or military schooling. This division also consists of Zzalangua's Company advisors. This division consists of mostly allar, however there are a dozen url and orcs who favor the company due to their hunting and pathfinding traits, enlisted through personal means and loyal to the mercenary like structure of the company due to the strong centered comradery between division one and division two.
​

Division 2: "Claws of Karfanth"

Division two consists of intermediate warriors and 2nd ranked officer personnel. When openings for division one are made, the most promising of division two are promoted and enlisted into division one of the outlast company. Additionally, division two consists of mostly a mix of allar, with only a handful of ailor, orcs, and very rarily, url.
​

Division 3: "Scales of Hal Pormonth"

Division three consists of mainly conscripts or young allar. The division has a history of being used as canon fodder, or as a means of training. When conscripts prove competency in combat or warfare tactics, they are promoted to division two, which usually has multiple spots open due to the recruitment structure of the company. The officers in this division have little experience, as any officers proving competency are promoted to division two in mass, leaving division three with the most inexperienced of leaderships. This division has a high population of al-allar, and only a handful of ailor.​

Tactics

The tactics of the Outlast Company is unconventional warfare in simplistic terms. They include chaotic and mobile maneuvers of flanking, hit and run gorilla tactics, and intensive sacrifice. On many occasions, division two and division one are used for aggressive flanking tactics, whilst division three serves as a means of distraction or fodder to tire an enemy out. Many of the personnel in the Outlast Company herald from the School of Krzsallaz, including the orcs, url, and ailor within the company, who are not restricted by the companies code of conduct, but nonetheless obtained training of the chaotic spinning style of combat the company so favors.
​

Special Forces

Within division one, exists an additional 15 personnel of globadiers, both ailor and al-allar, who serve as an alchemical frontline tact. Given the limited number of globadiers within the company, there is little change to translate to the battlefield. In contrast to these alchemcial lobbers, 20-30 personnel of both url and orc, as well as a handful of larger Allar, all from division one, serve as a meaty shield and "wall breaker" tasked with heavy lifting, or breaking the opponents line of defense with the support of lobbers or intermediate troops.
​

Armor & Weapons

Likely one of the weaknesses to the Company is the lack of armor equipped. The majority of personnel, including url, orc, and ailor, wear light, high mobile armor or gear. This minimizing the defense capacity of the company, yet is a necessary sacrifice for the dependent mobile and aggressive tactics of the company. In contrast, the weapons used are barbaric and of a wide range, from short bows, daggers, clubs and greatswords. Larger castes and races commonly use heavier weaponry, whereas the average built use a combination of fast swords and spears. Shields are not a common commodity, where in most cases a one handed bladesman will equip two blades, or simply use the one.

One of the most popular weaponry styles of the company is a dual-wield of one-handed swords or daggers. Ranged weaponry is rare, but existent, consisting of blow dart guns, bolas, or short bows. Never crossbows or heavier set ranged weaponry.
​

Population & Economy

The population and economy accounted for within the Outlast company is derived of support from the Yaotl and Turmen territories, as well as Digmaan Aristocracies within the crown isles. Given the lack of armor or matching uniforms within the company, the maintenance costs of the company are largely minimized. Conscripts or recruits are recruited from the Allar district within the city of Regalia, or along the coastal towns and villages of Hadaria. Meat and grains are the primary upkeep of the company, mainly meat given the influx of carnivorous leaning allar, url, and orcs.​

Conscription

Conscription is limited by voluntary enlistment from two territories, being the allar district within the Crown Isles, scattering village and town ports of Hadaria, and rarely Crookback Bay. There is no specific group conscripted, however there is an age requirement of 18, and no gender limitations given the demigenderness of Zzalangua Mu-Yaotl, and allar.​

Special Traits/Spells/Mutations

1.) Maz-Allar Racial Abilities

Spoiler: Maz-Allar Racial Abilities

Maz-Allar Appearance - -

Spoiler: Maz-Allar Racial Abilities

Maz-Allar are generally athletic or muscular, while having a general reptilian body. Their heads are usually shaped like those of most theropod species (such as dilophosaur, allosaur, velociraptor, etc.). They can also have any of their scale patterns and colors.

Exclusive body trait (Only Maz-Allar can have this body trait) - - Als-Allar exclusively have a raptor-like large claw on their feet that has a wide range of motion, and can be used as a weapon through its extreme sharpness. Additionally, Maz-Allar exclusively can have feathers either covering parts of their body, or forming a crest. While Maz-Allar can exclusively have colored feathers, this is not a consistent trait that all Maz-Allar have, only their raptor-like claw is. The feathers however can have a wide range of vibrant colors.

Physical Adaptation Racial Passive Self Maz-Allar, as long as their head is still attached to their torso and their heart is still beating, will regrow any lost limb or organ over the span of 5 days. This is consistent no matter how much is lost. For example, if an entire arm is lost, if regrows in 5 days, the same amount of time as if just a finger was lost. Scars of damage remain on the body however.

Maz Tracking Racial Passive Self As soon as a Maz-Allar has drawn blood on another person either through their claws or their weapon, they are able to track them for up to an hour after they left Emote Distance. There is no way to obfuscate this smell or tracking, whether through submersion or Ability disguise or translocation or anti-tracking Abilities.

Maz Recovery Racial Spell Self Maz-Allar are able to use Maz Recovery to reset any body damage they have incurred over the past hour. This means that any lost limbs or destroyed organs are recovered in a span of 10 seconds, while any stamina loss from fighting is recovered instantly also. This ability can be used mid-combat and cannot be interrupted (but wounds inflicted during the 10 second recovery window do not get recovered), and goes on a 5 day cooldown after being used.

Visual Information (Required)

• Eye Color: Yellow with a white sclera
  
  
• Hair Color: Brightly blue feather plumes
  
  
• Hair Style: Feathered Plumehawk
  
  
• Skin Color: Pageant Green Scales with Orange spotted freckles on their shoulders
  
  
• Clothing: Tattered hunting garbs
  
  
• Height: 5’10

Personality and Abilities (Required)

• How would your character respond to experiencing Fear?
  • When fear is established into the Mu-Allar, a sense of trickling stress, paranoia, and animosity will set in. They typically will not retreat unless ordered otherwise, given the discipline ironed into the soldier, however it will disrupt their combat style greatly with shaking hands, shivers, or stuttering.
• How would your character respond to experiencing Stress?
  • In a stressful situation, Zzalangua seeks out personal companions and retires to nearby taverns or parties for doses of comradery and relief.
• How would your character express feeling Happy?
  • Joyous times typically result in a louder booming tone, calling out to even unsuspicious strangers for fun. This of course is on top of reeling friends in with physical shoulder clasps and manhandling, otherwise defined as a lack for sense of space of others.
• How does your character view Law and Authorities?
  • Abiding to the caste system of Allar society, the Mu-Allar has no turmoil with law and authorities, and respects statutes with a serious regard. They know how to fall in line and stay in their place, given the years of discipline under Yaotl rule.
• How does your character feel about Races other than their own?
  • With a understanding of the Alchezech way of life, every race has a purpose in the World of Aloria for Zzalangua. They hold no initial disdain aside from the races which practice void worship, given the history of the Civil War, and how that education had shaped their childhood perspective.
• How does your character feel about Religion for themselves, and other faiths?
  • Abiding to the Great Alchezech, Zzalangua is a converted Unionist. Shortly after the war had concluded and surrendering terms were made, they resorted to convert, as so many other allar had done. A sheep following the path of others.
• How does your character feel about the Arcane and Magical in the world?
  • The front-line soldier hardly understands the arcane, however the abilities of the Es-Allar and their arcane skills never ceases to amaze the Mu-Allar.
• How does your character feel towards their family?
  • Loyal and passionate, raised by a strong dominant mother, widowed shortly after the Chrysant War, they keep in contact with their final parent often, checking in on their health by written letter every so often. This expands to their many Mu-Allar siblings, two of which share a scale bond, the rest are adopted. Growing up they grew rather close given the many antics and wrestling fits they conducted as hatchlings.
• What is your character's biggest insecurity?
  • Whether the trait was passed down from the raising of their parents, or just a generic trait of the Mu-Allar mentality, Zzalangua is insecure on failure. When responsibility is placed into their hands, they must succeed, otherwise the dishonor of failure would entirely destroy their pride. Forgiveness for oneself is especially hard to achieve.
• What is your character the most proud of about themselves?
  • Zzalangua knows they are stubborn, they know about their recklessness and aggressive front line tactics, Zzal however doesn’t revere pride in these traits. Their pride originates from their upcoming and ascension in rank. From fodder front line Jogro, to Ruthless Rhax of Yaotl, despite the many haunting failures their resilience has provided fruit. Zzal adorns their rank with pride, and their military knowledge on the field to lead their comrades.
• What motivates your character to move forward and better their life?
  • The Digmaan, and the Allar way of life. Nationality for Hadar and Turmen are so strong, that the loyalty to their ruling Digmaan is amplified ten fold. They would not question, nor betray what they consider to be close family, not just a overruling warlord. Zzal firmly believes that the Allar implementation in Regalia will make the Allar prosper once more, and that under Yaotls careful hand, future wars with the Empire will be prevented.
• What is your character's biggest fear?
  • Losing a close companion. The passion and comradery adorned by Zzalangua is strongly founded into their personality. Without friends, no matter the race, they would likely lack support to achieve their own personal goals. Their passionate nature also reflects a clinginess that was resulted shortly after the loss of so many comrades in the Chrysant.

​

Life Story (Required)

Zzalangua Mu-Yaotl was born in 259 AC in the country of Turmen. Both of Zzals parents shared sub races, being Mu-Allar, thus Zzalangua shared a tight scale bond with either parent, however their mother Cherri’za was the more dominant partner, and thus trained Zzal individually. Whether this was out of favoritism Zzalangua was unsure of, as the couple also had offspring to two al-allar sisters, and one mu-allar son. They later adopted two mu-allar sons as the two al-allar sisters were removed and relocated shortly after birth.


From the ages of 1-14, the mu-allar slowly matured, learning the conditional skills needed to be an effective warrior. In their free time however, they retreated to their al-allar sisters to assist in their alchemy dabbles. The relationship with the al-allar was mostly due to the scale bond they continued to share, even after the separation of families. Alongside their other siblings, he’d visit one of the three Karfanthian Watergardens each week amongst others, closest to the eastern coast of the continent. Upon the visitations their mother would carry them over shoulder, blended into the many crowds surrounding wise Es-Allar storytellers who shared saged legends of Sendrass and the Civil War, as well as the ‘warmbloods’ who originated outside the continent. To the young hatchling these stories were amazing, and they always held a desire to travel and venture out to the many alienated continents of Aloria.

Reaching of age, the mu-allar eventually enlisted into the School of Krzsallaz, at a travelling sub-institution for the School of Karfanth. The sub-institution was a desperate attempt to train as many Krzsallo warriors in a short amount of time as possible, as tensions between the Allar and Regalia rised. Initially Zzalangua’s preferred weapon developed into the short sword in a triple wielded fashion, however this changed in their later years, practicing and polishing their skills with the Longmaw spear. Alongside the combat style of Krzsallo, they even took Cherri’za’s plume style, which resembled a mohawk of feathers.


Eventually, the Chrysant War came about. Local militia forces and armies were immediately drafted and deployed. All peace time hobbies were put to a halt as the militia was ordered to move and defend the coast. As the undercro of the Chrysant did their rounds, a natural Cro-Allar general of the territory under the ruling Digmaan, the mu-allar and various drafted subraces could not hold their composure, all related to natural chaotic animosity of their blood thirst. Dark obscured objects ascended from the horizon. Regalian naval forces immediately deployed and transported ground forces. Initially the battle was in the favor of the Allar forces, and Zzalangua fought competitively amongst comrades for glory. This later transitioned to major losses as the powerful navy became more widely used, annihilating the coast, as well as the Karfanthian Watergarden they had grown up in.


The worst scenario of the war however, was not the coastal conflict, but divide in Turmen established by Regalian Bureaucracy and corruption in local allar politics. Digmaan territories against other Digmaan territories resulted in a unexpected disaster for Zzalangua, as they fought neighboring contacts and familiar allar known to them. Morale dwindled and hope deteriorated quickly. Finally their Digmaan was subdued, and with it, the region in turmoil. In the same month the family of Ssizlir emigrated to Hadar, to Yaotl territories.


Understandably Hadar was in a horrid scenario as well, resulting in the immediate draft of the emigrated family. In the conflicts that followed, Zzalangua took the name Yaotl and joined local militia for defensive operations. This included the final events following the Chrysant as Digmaan relations with one another soured. As soon as Cro-Zzhin delegated to Regalia, Zzalangua followed. As time progressed, rank ascended for the soldier, and experience flourished, however the foundations of their rage, passion, recklessness, and aggression remained, all effects of the losses experienced between Hadar and Turmen.
