The Ravagers Faction [RAV] is a faction I'm working on to get added to the vanilla game. "For Lupus" "We are the wolves that stalk the stars" "Let the enemy feel the Fangs of Lupus" I have some poi's and opv's built but more are needed to get this faction added to the game. So in a nut shell if you like the idea of a 'Viking' inspired faction then the Ravagers are for you. I'm putting out the challenge to the community as essentially more poi's and opv's are needed both in space and on the planet's. Unfortunately there's not many people working on them and could do with some help. Challenge details: There is no time limit to complete the build challenge. The maximum size class and guidelines for submission are there so please make sure you check your build meets these requirements. If you want to build a Ravagers poi that's not on this list, please contact me as it has to make sense and fit into the faction. They are not like the other factions. Please do not take an existing build and simply retexture it to have Ravagers colour's. Lore: Simply put, The Ravagers from the Vanara system are usually farmers, traders, blacksmiths, craftsmen and warriors. Once they had unified their own planet and reached the technological level for space travel they reached for the stars. They are fiercely loyal to their own kind, and live by the 'no ravager left behind' mentality. they have a fantastic ability to shrug off losses in battle, whether they be land battles or in dangerous space expeditions. They expanded their territory by taking over their neighbouring systems. The raids, systematic looting, colonisation, and trade brought the Ravagers to many destinations and in different directions. They prefer to trade peacefully but For various reasons, they will raid Outposts, Mining facilities and attack shipping lanes. Many of the places they attack are on the edge of other faction space as they are easiest to reach. With their fast, swift and well armed ships, the Ravagers can quickly swarm over the positions, killing and looting, and just as fast return to their ships and leave. They are gone before any defence or counter-attack can be made. The full lore and history can be found here; https://empyriononline.com/threads/npc-factions-call-for-papers.92373/page-3#post-442628 (You may need to scroll down to my post) Architecture: Their architecture celebrates their gods and actively displays them in intricate detail on their structures and ships. They have 5 main temples, one dedicated to each of the main 5 gods they worship. There are other gods as mentioned above. Most non-military structures are elongated and rectangular. Dark marble pillars also feature heavily in Ravager architecture. Military structures are usually circular/ring like fortress style with fornications. there can be slight colour variants depending which clan the poi belongs to, e.g. using blue instead of gold for the detailing. Colour Palette: |0#0#0#0#0|1#0#173#75#2|2#0#118#92#41|3#0#91#74#70|4#0#72#114#142|5#0#205#205#205|6#0#238#238#238|7#0#253#242#242|0#1#48#24#8|1#1#151#65#2|2#1#75#0#1|3#1#131#59#0|4#1#59#94#117|5#1#174#174#174|6#1#154#154#154|7#1#137#137#137|0#2#220#95#3|1#2#249#166#2|2#2#98#44#0|3#2#0#139#139|4#2#58#72#93|5#2#88#88#88|6#2#110#110#110|7#2#137#137#137|0#3#33#33#33|1#3#104#85#80|2#3#84#34#0|3#3#0#220#220|4#3#35#56#71|5#3#49#49#49|6#3#58#58#58|7#3#77#77#77 Building Traits: All ships have the prefix of Ravager Fleet (or Freighter) ship (RFS) before their main name. the main name is usually appointed using reference to the 'ships of old' in faction history or relating to their gods, some names include or relate to; Terror, Wolf, Horse, Raven, Falcon, serpent, etc. the rest is pretty much open. lore wise even if the ship doesn't fit, it can count as a stolen and re-painted/re-purposed one. If you look at the stuff I have already built and submitted, you can get the idea for the colouring/texturing and build style.
