~Eazugia Series~


Once the Grand-Mage of the gloomy city of Nightingale over 400 years ago, Corva Blacksong became obsessed with the school of necromancy. While the rest of the noble mages in Nightingale wasted time studying hexes and curses, Corva learned the secrets behind life and death, and learned to weave it with growing ease. But it wasn’t enough, and her duties as the city’s ruler were just getting in the way. In the dead of night, she vanished and left the title of Grand-Mage to a relative.

Four hundred years later, Corva Blacksong is like a poorly kept secret hanging over the citizens of Nightingale. Having retreated back into a family manor deep in the surrounding foggy mountains, Corva has mastered necromancy and has long since turned herself into a lich: a powerful mage existing between life and death. While it’s not an uncommon sight to catch glimpses of the skeletal servants coming into the city for supplies, rarely anyone has ever laid eyes upon the lich herself. But it seems like that’s all about to change...

The skeletons parade through the streets again, just like usual. But rather than picking up supplies they instead leave something behind: flyers. Flyers everywhere. And they all offer the same thing: To become Corva’s student and learn the secrets of necromancy. Necromancy has never been an outlawed form of magic, but it’s always had a certain...taboo about it. Most mages scoff at the advertisements, and soon the flyers seem forgotten entirely.

And yet here you are, entering the foreboding manor and possibly sealing your fate. Perhaps you’re a forgotten child of one of the noble families aiming to succeed. Maybe you’re an ambitious mage seeking more power. Perhaps you’re a commoner, untested and written off, eager to to prove to the world that you’re a worthy mage.

Regardless of your reasonings, you are in the lich’s grasp now. She’s mastered her art over four long and lonely centuries...It’s time for her to pass on her teachings to another.

Just try not to lose your head.

~The World of Eazugia~

Eazugia is a country ruled by magic, and mages are considered akin to nobility. Mages place a lot of weight on magical bloodline and magical power, and consider their gifts of magic as signs that they are meant to rule over normal people. The Magedom is ruled over by an Arch-Mage, while various cities within the country are governed by Grand-Mages. Grand-Mages are usually titles to be inherited, passed down through a single mage family. However, if a current Grand-Mage without a heir dies, then an election between the mage families of that city is held to determine the new Grand-Mage. The position of Grand-Mage is an extremely intense and stressful one, with snakes lurking in every corner; At any point, if a Grand-Mage’s leading capabilities are called into question, the surrounding mage families may appeal to the Arch-Mage to have the Grand-Mage removed. If the Arch-Mage chooses to remove the city’s Grand-Mage, then the family as a whole is removed from power and another family elected by the Arch-Mage will take its place.

The Capitol City, called Orrem’Thalas, is ruled by the Arch-Mage Minervina Ghalerock. Orrem’Thalas is located high in sky, as it’s a floating city suspended by magic. The only way to reach it is through magical teleportation glyphs. Surrounding the Capitol on the ground are five smaller, yet important cities: Frenror, Wind’Breath, Emeralas, Titanolo, and Frost’Gorge. From there, the rest of the country is dotted by various cities, as well as small villages that pay taxes and are considered part of the closest cities. Eazugia is a country with many different biomes/environments ranging from the towering snowy mountains to the north, to the grassy plains to the east, to the woodlands in the west and center, and even to the deserts far south of the Capitol.

~Nightingale~

Nightingale is a small northern city in Eazugia, surrounded by gloomy forests and foggy mountains. Nightingale’s mages tend to specialize in curses and hexes, while non-magic commoners make their coin navigating the mountains’ many mines or take to the woods to harvest lumber. The city has a reputation among the rest of Eazugia for being a dreary place, but the people are content with their lives and are mostly normal.


HAH! I TRICKED YOU ALL! You came here for BIRD TITTIES but I instead snuck in a suspiciously Eazugia-shaped lump! This was my plan all along-!

Yeah okay enough of that lol Nah but for real, it’s been awhile since I’ve made a bot set in Eazugia. Uh...I’ll be 100% transparent with you guys here: I’m fucking stupid as , and I’m not even exaggerating a little bit 😭 See because I originally wanted to make like this whole lorebook/script for Eazugia bots but, like...I don’t understand the script feature. Like even remotely. I’ve had friends and fellow bot creators sit my plump ass down and explain it to me and try to show me some examples of how it works but, uh...Yeah, none of it was computing. Not even the tutorial thingy was computing. I tried to make it happen but it just...wasn’t.

So yes, FishTiddy is indeed a talentless hack and a fraud and you can all leave en masse now 😛 Or don’t, because I like some of you guys.

I have accepted that I am simply of a low intelligence breed ;~;
