===Naxian Technocracy===

Naxis is a strange and enigmatic place, perhaps the most unfamiliar to the outsider. The lands it inhabits is largely desert and wasteland, and their population is a scant few. Their people and history however, are incredible. The Naxian ideal can be traced back to when the Tinrellian empire was at it's height, controlling more than half of the known world, including the southern continent, Naxis, which was in those days a land of vast rolling hills and plains. A genius scholar and inventor, who's name is now lost to the sands of time, did the impossible- he created a thinking machine. A massive construct the size of a hill, it was a delicate, intricate construction of brass and gold clockwork. Upon the announcement of this momentous even, he locked himself within his fortress with his machine. What was done in the years following may be only known to the Naxians themselves. Half a century later, however, the fruits of his labour were made available to all across naxis. Machine-Men, a little more machine than man, built from Serfs and clockwork soon became the de facto source of labor on Naxian farms. Yet another half-century later, something went wrong. The Tinrellian metropole suddenly ceased receiving reports from the inventor's fortress. In a sudden explosion of fury, the machine-men turned on their masters, slaughtering the inhabitants of Naxis. From the fortress of the machine-mind, strange and intricate brass constructs began to take flight. What follows next is burned into history books forever. Normal humans were driven from the continents, and through arcane methods the Naxian seers began sapping the life from the land to power their ships. To this day they remain a vehement enemy of Tinrell, and the two take any excuse to make war. The Naxian Machine-men and their ships are few and far between, but each are powerful and advanced, and will not hesitate to kill trespassers on sight. The Naxians today are isolationist, ruthless, yet inventive and efficient people, of which little is known. They worship the sun, a great heresy to the Tinrellians, who worship the far-stars. Though traders and ambassadors regularly ply the skies beyond Naxis, they stay tight-lipped about their homeland.
