Vampires or whatever...

[Echigo]

 

"Long ago, when the various worlds of existence were still young, the blood of gods still held great power. Continents, oceans, and creatures all took form from the spilled blood of the powers on innumerous occasions. On one world in particular however, its identity long since lost, this led to a highly unfortunate occurrence. The Seldarine, indulging in acts of creation, let their blood flow across the land, as they begun to craft the elven race. Little attention was paid, as this had been done by the Seldarine time and time again. But on this occasion, an unnamed god of the humans, a dark and twisted power with a deep-seated jealousy of the elven race, took this opportunity to twist the empowered blood, imbuing it with a curse of violence and anger. Draining the life force from it as it took form, leaving a being with the beauty and immortality of the elves, its connection to nature surviving only in an animalistic rage within its inner self, lacking any spark of life and seeking the blood of others to replace that loss, spreading its curse in the process. This being was originally known as Mastraacht, but eventually came to take the name Kanchelsis. It is his creation that still stands as one of the Seldarine's deepest shames; for this reason, many drow turn to his worship, even those with no interest in taking the curse themselves."

 

 

 
The faction is based around vampirism and vampiric acts. The portfolio of Kanchelsis in D&D(not FR canon): is Blood, Debauchery, Magic, Seduction, and Vampirism, therefor the faction will take part in some or all of these things in one way or another.

Some minor goals are:
Supporting the rising to power of like-minded Elf factions and to subjugate or cattle the lesser races.
Collect artifacts of unlife and vampirism.
Harvest different types of blood for the connoisseur in us all!
Take lands in the name of the house.
Infiltrate the various factions of Sanctuary to spread the prestige and legitimacy of our noble house!
IDK, whatever you think will fit into the categories above! (Blood, Debauch, so on, so forth)

The end goal is to make our house's "secret" very obvious and have the power and allies to back it up without a bunch of buffed veteran PC's just steamrolling the concept into the floor because "Necromancy baaaaad". Bring some real, /loud/ fear to the server. Or just have fun getting FD'd because of blood drinking and animating dead.

Classes:
Anything but Druid and Paladin. Cleric could work really nicely, but a deity of the above portfolios or similar would be preferred.

Races:
Nobles: Preferably Elf or Half-Elf. Humans are possible, but should be limited.
All other races would be seen as servants or thralls.

Alignment:
Any evil. Preferably a Chaotic affinity, but Lawful could be some dope RP, for true.

Honestly, there's not much else to say... I played a lot of Warhammer: Total War as the Vampire Counts and I have a major itching to bring that feel to EfU.
