The Fall of Bretonnia - Part 1
[X] Lyonesse: Lyonesse is currently leaderless and is the most weakened of the dukedoms currently thanks to the rot tide, it will be an easy picking.



The dukedom of Lyonesse was in the end a very easy target of conquest, it forces were shattered and scattered to the four winds, its duke was killed and then resurrected as a zombie, the late dukes family trying and failing to hold the dukedom together, it had no leadership and no armies. The peasants are the ones who most suffered, as they are the ones who lost their husbands, brothers, and sons to machinations of a war that should not have escalated to this point, they lived fearful lives now, until an unlikely savior came.

A man cladded in midnight armor leading a million strong army composed of undead, dark beasts, magicians and even dragons, he completely destroyed the threats which plagued the peasants. He casted down the followers of Nurgle, hunted down the few beastmen groups which managed to reach Lyonesse. At first they were scared of him and his dark army, but as time passed and they saw how he never actually attacked them, and he actually healed the sick and the injured when he saw their conditions. Parents hugging their children as they now didn't have the chance of dying because of disease, old veterans of previous wars look at their lost limbs now fully restored and cried tears of joy.

The one who did this, was now wondering why he didn't try to do the latter before. When they discovered that he was a literal god in the mortal plane, they immediately kneeled and started praying, for this god was not far away in some unknown place this god came personally and helped them. The fact that this is the god who the dragon cults said that would come to save them was simply a added bonus, as the cult rose in popularity.

The nobles did not like this but they didn't have any armies, only a few knights as the duke took their last armies with a large force behind with him, before disappearing along with them. This did not say that they were not planning to warn the rest of Bretonnia about the massive dark army, of course the nobles did not live for long as they either suffered 'accidents' or were publicly executed in the front of thousands, the peasantry had no love for the nobles but after the simple saying that they were conspiring against the new order they instantly became angry at the previous nobility.

While the nobles were executed, their holdings where being seized by the new order, their wives and children were put on house arrest, while Dracul considered killing them he decided against it as it would hurt his reputation, he would let them live at least and who knows maybe they will actually become loyal servants for children mids are much more malleable than adults towards a new power figure. And if they even attempt to rebel the executioner's axe is always ready to be used at traitors and enemies of the state.

The impaled corpses of their houses' patriarchs left to rot for a time before being raised in front of their states probably helped to keep them loyal to you and not cause any type of ruckus. And why the hell are those doves that keep following him?! It feels like he has an unknown watcher or pursuer.

After a brief look at the personal library of a noble (which wasn't the first to be raided by him), he found that the white dove is a holy symbol of the goddess Shallya, which is why her priesthood robes are majorly white or at least have the color white in them along with the symbol of doves in them, she is also the daughter of Morr the empire god of death though he skipped across that tidbit of information, not before reading it of course.

Now that everything was good for his new conquered territory, time to settle a few things first…

We shouldn't have more dead troops, we have enough and all that we could raise would be our iron reserve. We should concentrate on another matter.

This makes sense, though we will the undead still be under our control when we raise them?

[X] +10 To ????? Next Action

i choose this one, as much as i want to raise our chances of getting estalia steel, (which is a +55 on a DC 120, so we need a 65 or higher for a roll...i can do a few omakes tomorrow to help with that!)

also yes for another cannon idea...i also have a idea if we ever truly enter a full fledge alliance with the dwarven and empire gods.

Its name is the Twilight Realm.

the idea for the realm is growing right now, and damn well did we do some nice shit.

your new on SV aren't you? (joking) Otherwise I would say we don't have enough since were facing a whole chaos invasion soon, not to mention cleansing bretonnia is going to need ALLOT more undead, not to mention killing off all the skaven and clearing out the grey mountains for safer travel and as a bribe for the dwarves. This way once we have to we can garrison the edges of the Wood elves realms with our dead, send them as kill swarms into the depths against the fucking rats, and of course get more dead until we can drown a chaos horde in them.

personally until we can raise quality militia that wont die by a stiff breeze and can actually hold a town (not to mention do a entire census of our new lands so we can get all the villages missed by the old order into the new way of things and thus concentrate our populace) were going to need all the undead we can get until we can be safe in our knowledge of getting shit done.

also were going to need to really revamp the entire landscape and finish allot of shit to get it all done.

It's sound but I would suggest leaving a couple of Necromancers behind to control the undead we raise, it would provide a leash for any rouge undead and give the garrison the ability to actually fight a battle, as well as provide someone the people can go to that can actually listen to them
 
@Alucard Vampiry
1.Since the multiverses we visit are connected to each other does that mean Fantasy and 40k are linked (because of the Chaos Gods) and there is a chance (no matter how small) that some Norscans trying to summon daemons might open a warp portal and get Chaos Space Marines?
1.a For that matter what would the various people from 40k reaction be to a planet where a normal human with some training and a little blessing from a minor God can fight a Greater Daemon and can expect to have a chance of winning ?
2. What are the levels of beings from RWBY? Salem, Ozpin, Light and Dark Gods as well that lady from the lamp (I forgot her name)
3. When we get to a higher level (or even now) will it be possible for say some Norscans and Kurgan to "fall" and become Heretics (from their perspective) that worship us or any other Order Gods since Chaos is all they knew since they were born and are wiling to accept an alternative that won't devour their souls at a drop of a hat?
4. Also just for the sake of hilarity what would happen if the various Gods of Chaos from different multiverses like Discord from My Little Pony and those from Warhammer met?

1. There is a one-in-a-decillion chance for the Norscans to summon a chaos space marine.
1.a Disbelief they would only believe if they personally saw it.

2. Ozpin and Salem are the level of fledgling gods, the classification of the gods of light and darkness is complicated so between minor or Intermediate divinities, still deciding on the last one.

3. There is a chance for that to happen yes.

4. Complete and utter chaos as the chaos gods would for the weaker ones than then, and devour then while simultaneously fighting the ones who are the same level as them.

@Alucard Vampiry By my earlier question of whether faith empowering a God works like a buff or a stat upgrade I meant if it reinforces our "base" (like in those cultivation novels) so we need to be worshipped a number of years to progress and the more worshippers the faster it goes or do we need to actively seek out to increase the number of our worshippers and if we lose them we lose the power we were getting from them as opposed to the reinforcement option where we lose only the power gain.

I think all our necromancers will be helping raise the dead.
