Hominum

I do not seek power, i seek unity.

- Lucius Magna, the first imperator

The Hominum, also called “Trinians” are the people from the continent of Trinia and are the most common race of men. Trinian people are expansionists by nature and many other races call them greedy and dishonorable. Though the men of Trinia think themselves as bringers of a better society.

History
The great Ratfolk were most numerous in the lands of Trinia. And thus when the great change occurred, the Hominum controlled the lands. The first men were confused and lost. But one great Korrigan lead them to victory. He offered the Hominum a sense of purpose, and a goal in these dark days.

Ornir the unifier
Ornir, king of the young realm of Hildir, united the Korrigan under one banner for one final push against the weakened and divided Umdala empire. But they were still too few. When the dawn of man came, the men were leaderless. Ornir promised a save life in the upper world in turn of joining his alliance. And so Ornir rallied Korrigan, Men, and Felen against the Elner onslaught. And so after a ten year war, the battle of Kakranea had come. At stake; the fate of Mankind and Trinia. Under leadership of Ornir, the alliance of Man, Korrigan, and Felen came out victorious. And on the ruins of the fallen Elner empire, Mankind now ruled.

The legacy of Srahar the conqueror was over. As his descendants abandoned the colonies, and retreaded back to the pure lands of Amelias. The Hominum of Amelias were long gone. After they were all slaughtered by the fanatics of Morphas during the night of suffering.

The times of Apollus
In 765 1k, even after the tribes of Man had taken the lands of Trinia, they still didn't rule all. The lands of Tantrius were home to the Umdala ruins of Asandre and the tribes of Faleri. These ruins were inhabited by a dragon that claimed to be the sole ruler of the central lands. A tyrannical figure, burning those who opposed him. His name, was Razul.

No one was brave enough to stand up against Razul. But there was one brave, young hero. His name was Apollus. But he did not have the means to fight a Numar. So he prayed. He prayed all nights and days. He prayed to Barrakas, the god of war. And finally, these prayer were answered. Barrakas told Apollus to leave his sword at his altar for three nights and days. And when Apollus returned, it wasn't his rusty blade anymore. It had been blessed by Barrakas into a mighty flaming sword. The inscription said, "This is Diana, use her to bring down my wrath upon those who wish harm".

And so Apollus traveled to the ruins of Asandre. Here he met the tyrant known as Razul. He was gigantic, way bigger then Apollus expected. Razul started to speak, "who dares stand against me". Apollus tried to sound confident, but everyone would be able to hear the fear in his voice. "I have come to end your reign tyrant, and establish an age of peace". Razul laughed like one gone mad. The false bravery of this mere Man amused him. He lunged at Apollus and the battle began. The flames of Diana shined bright with the powers of Barrakas. And thanks to these blessings, Apollus killed Razul, and beheaded him.

And so the Faleri tribes could inhabit the lands Tantrius once again. Apollus is these days still known as one of the greatest heroes of Mankind. And on the ruins of Asandre, Apollus established the greatest city the world would every know. Pretora, the city of the Imperium.

Colonizing Karadir
In 815 1k the Hominum would start to explore the unknown lands to the south. Hearing tales of ruins of an ancient empire. And seas of sand stretching across the world. When the first Hominum ships came through the gates of Ulmar and arrived in Trader's bay, they discovered a race of black skinned Men. They were the Karminum.

Many years went by and long after the first city of Ezion was established, the Corminum started to appear. Interbreeding between the Hominum settlers and the Karminum natives ended in the coming of a new race of men. On that would one day rule the city states.

The pantheon of Man
The pantheon of Man is the oldest and most widely believed religion of Tillindor and is worshipped by the Hominum of Trinia. Though the very first race “The Ratfolk” already honored these divines,. The pantheon worships the 10 divines that created the world.
