Thank you for this bit, and to all of those saying things about the dead nation stuff and what-have-you, it's not about having some form of feigned greatness or higher station than what other Domans may or may not have. The root of it all is to have some form of history and character background that could be used later on for development of story and the like.

Would it come up in regular RP? No, probably not, but it would be something that's nice to have as basically an added spice to the character, especially should more information arise or even for certain uses. It could also be used for personality reasonings though I don't plan for my Raen to be very stuck up anyway, but perhaps just have that sort of air about it.

Y'know... I am on Balmung ^.~

@Ronin Below:

That's cool! (Realizing after reading that I didn't even do certain things, whoopsie! xD) Can you give me some sources and such so I can look further into it?

There is almost nothing, other than basic lore from the Au Ra conventions and their information, about the rest of Othard. Tidbits here and there from items as well, if you care to read them.

Further on the NIN quest:


Show Content
SpoilerThe reason said princess is recruiting help is due to family treasures being stolen that she wants back. Said treasures are going to be sold to raise funds to make their land "not trash" essentially. Thus, this implies that there is still nobility present within some reaches of Othard. But, it also alludes to the fact even though she's a princess, they're not incredibly well off - thus needing to raise said funds. That could be due to Garlean occupancy or something we don't even know of. She's attempting to rebuild her land via profit from said treasures. It's very possible that the Garleans wrecked it during their invasion.

Also, it's interesting to note that her noble house, or shinobi group (which is unlikely due to them referring to all shinobi as traitors), is referred to as a clan. Much akin to older Japanese history. They've also retainers for their duties and whatnot.

Little fun fact, there's a Garlean-trained ninja within the questline. Very keen on willing to prove he's better than your buddy Oboro.


Edit: I've gone ahead and screenshotted and uploaded all the 50-60 journal entries for the NIN quest, in case you wish to read them yourself. (Yes there are only two, beginning and end.)
