STEP TWO: CHOOSE YOUR NATION
You have four options when it comes to picking a Nation.
Existing Nations - There are four core Nations that will relate to the first four events and first Arc of UFL: Nethelroi, Salaphir, Urnslarn’s Cluster, and Deljen. Selecting one of these Nations will have your slice of the world slotted into one of these four nations and each have pre-written briefs to help guide your characters but by no means restrict them.
Your Own Nation - If you are attending as a group of at least three people, you may submit your own Nation as part of UFL. As part of submitting your Nation, you have free reign over the fantasy and story of that area of the world. Player-created Nations follow a similar set of restrictions to player-created Ancestries. You should not submit a nation who is the only nation who mines and supplies a particular resource, or who is the only provider of a particular resource. They can believe themselves unique in a particular way, but you cannot declare them unique unless they are stated as such by the Game Team.
If you will be selecting this option, your group leader will be sent an additional form to provide nation details.
Somewhere Distant - The vague approach. Your concept doesn't quite work in the briefs that are already present. You'll submit your character accordingly and this will be noted by the game team. Some additional information or brief may be added by the game team over time.
Unsure - If you are unsure, then that’s a valid option. We can read your backstory and thoughts and we can slot you into a slice of the world that we think is best or discuss options with you. This is also the “Throw me wherever sounds right for me” option.
Please note that all custom Nation backgrounds need to be approved by the Game Team to make sure they work within our Game World! We will provide you with feedback to help make your concept work, where needed.
