She survived a war with the city of Six-Trees, which Two-Forks lost, at the age of 16. She was promoted then to ninth rank. She led a number of raids against Six Trees, which were successful in capturing enemy hunters and engineers. This gained her promotion to seventh rank, by the time she was 18.<br><br>She rose rapidly then. By the time she was 20 she was fourth rank, and had made General of Servants by 25. She is ruthless and vicious, and likes nothing better than a challenge. At age 27 she challenged the General Of Warriors to retake the land lost to Six Trees under his Generalship eleven years ago. He refused and she killed him right there, in front of the Queen. She took command of the army and led a devastating&nbsp; assault on&nbsp; Six Trees, taking back the lost territory, and capturing the city itself, something which had not been done in over a hundred years.<br><br>She immediately declared herself Queen of Six Trees, and had her army fortify the border with Two Forks at a point well beyond where it had been before her attack. The army with her was composed of Arach from both Two Forks and Six Trees, and all swore loyalty to such a bold queen.<br><br>Now, six years later, after a number of minor wars with neighbouring cities, Six Trees is the predominant power in the area.<br><br><hr><strong>Player: orderNchaos</strong><br><strong>Name:</strong> Paretta<br><strong>Age:</strong> 30 local years<br><strong>Caste:</strong> Warrior<br><strong>Rank:</strong> 1<br><strong>Job:</strong> Commander Six Trees Special Task Force<br><strong>Height:</strong>&nbsp; 2.50m<br><strong>Weight</strong>: 130kg<br><strong>Build</strong>: Athletically Muscular<br><strong>Personality</strong>: Hard and Cold<br><strong>Bio</strong>: Paretta grew up as a warrior in the city of Two Forks and fought with distinction against Six Trees during the war.&nbsp; Wounded during the conflict she was unable to rejoin the warriors during the final assault.&nbsp; Spending two years in the Jungle fighting for her life against Six Tree's warriors who were hunting remaining Two Forks warriors, she finally was able to regain her position as a seventh rank warrior having killed over seventy Six Trees warriors during the two year span and capturing a sixth rank Six Trees captain and his five man team for the queen.&nbsp; Serving with distinction in many of the raids against Six Trees run by Ariadne, Paretta had personally killed more enemy warriors than any other warrior of her time, being a profoundly capable hunter and killer.&nbsp; Unmatched in single combat and small unit tactics, Paretta fought her way up through the ranks and established herself as a force to be reckoned with when her small team of eight warriors infiltrated deep inside Six Trees lines their ability to command and control their army.&nbsp; When Six Trees came under control of Ariadne as Queen, Paretta petitioned the new Queen to put her in command of a small specialized commando unit.<br><br><hr><br><strong>Player: Kunoichi</strong><br><strong>Name:</strong> Chiss<br><strong>Age:</strong> 32 local years<br><strong>Caste:</strong> Hunter<br><strong>Rank:</strong> 3<br><strong>Job:</strong> Wrangler (leads hunting parties to bring in larger mammals; considered a somewhat dangerous job by other Arach)<br><strong>Height:</strong> 2.43 m<br><strong>Weight:</strong> 81 kg<br><strong>Build:</strong> Lean<br><strong>Personality:</strong> The rare Arach who is completely satisfied with her position within Arach society, Chiss has a great love of the visceral thrill of the hunt and the sense of power she gets from taking down creatures larger and more powerful than herself.&nbsp; Her greatest fantasy is to stalk, capture, and then rape an Arach of the Warrior caste, but thus far she has yet to find a suitable candidate to carry out this fantasy upon.<br><strong>Bio:</strong> An Arach born to the city of Six Trees, Chiss is an experienced Hunter among her people, and currently the Arach who has lived the longest in the position she now occupies, that of the city's expert Wrangler.&nbsp; The job is a dangerous one, involving leading teams of one's subordinates out into the wilderness to bring down the larger beasts on the planet for a variety of purposes, often for important ceremonial feasts, and the Arach's evolutionary adaptation towards bringing down creatures smaller than themselves is a disadvantage on these hunts.&nbsp; Still, the rewards are great when a hunt is successful, the captured beasts feeding many and serving a useful purpose as draft animals and beasts of war, and the high fatality rate in such hunting parties tend to lead to a high promotion rate in the young, inexperienced Hunters below.<br><br>Chiss was originally one such Hunter, promoted rapidly up the line when she was one of the few to survive her first hunting trip, and afterwards the renewed hostilities with Two Forks kept her busy serving as a scout for Six Trees' own military forces.&nbsp; Ariadne's march on the city saw her setting out again with the then-current Wrangler for the city, and while that particular Wrangler died, trampled to death beneath her would-be prey's feet, the hunt itself was still successful, the hunting party returning with a magnificent specimen just in time to present it as a gift to the new Queen, and secure their new promotions within the city's hierarchy.<br><br>Since then, Chiss has served successfully in the position of Wrangler for six years, having brought down numerous large creatures in Queen Ariadne's service with no thought to promotion or worries about subordinates below her.&nbsp; Few would want to take up such a dangerous occupation, after all, and why would she want to rise to a higher rank when her current one allows her plenty of job satisfaction?<br><br><hr><strong>Player: Chrystal</strong><br><strong>Name:</strong> Rickicka<br><strong>Age: </strong>25 local years<br><strong>Caste: </strong>Engineer<br><strong>Rank:</strong> 3<br><strong>Job:</strong> Telegraph Engineer/line-woman<br><strong>Height: </strong>1.94m <br><strong>Weight</strong>: 63kg<br><strong>Build:</strong> Slight and nimble.<br><strong>Personality:</strong> Inquisitive, yet practical in her approach <br><strong>Bio:</strong> Rickicka is one of Six Tree's leading telephone line layers. She is one of the top echelon of telephone engineers who know exactly how the telephone system works, but of course she will never pass that information on to anyone unless ordered to by the General of Engineers. She was born in Six Trees, and was fortunate enough to have been away from the city, repairing some storm damaged phone lines, when the city was attacked by Ariadne's forces. On her return, she immediately swore loyalty to the new Queen - there being no prifit in her doing otherwise.<br><br>Rickicka used to be ambitious. She was devious enough to manipulate her superior into plotting against the section head, a few years ago, and then tipped off the section head to the plot. To her absolute delite, both Arach killed each other and she gained the promotion to 4th rank as a result. She did not wish to be a section head, however. She wanted to be a line engineer, and so arranged for a little accident to befall one of the older line engineers, then applied for her vacancy.<br><br>She is now content with where she is, and is relatively secure, having gained the confidence of those above her and the awe of those beneath.<br><br><hr>
