ReLOE

Mai's Counterattack is a Lords of Ether OVA adaptation focused on Lost Ground produced by Artaria Animation who picked up the IP nine years after Season 8 of the original series was cancelled. Unlike its predecessors, it is actually an anime rather than a live action TV series pretending to be anime, and is actually produced in Japanese. Due to various copyright issues, various aspects of canon including the names of characters and places were changed, alienating many fans of the old series.

Background

Lost Ground is a small, mostly-gray planet orbiting largely alone around an unremarkable reddish-orange star. Until the reopening of the starways, the population of the world simply referred to their government as "the Empire". Following the return of interplanetary travel, the planet's sole polity gained the name Alter Empire after the advanced technomagical discipline (Advanced Liquid-metal Techno-Enchantment Resonance) that underlies its civilization. Likewise, they are often called "Alters" by foreigners but refer to themselves as "Lost Grounders" instead.

It is unclear what nations existed on Lost Ground in the former era (when it probably wasn't called Lost Ground) but it was minimally the home of at least one major demihuman race: the aquatic Merai who still survive on Kanaria, as well as human populations loyal to the Japanese pantheon and to Greater Atlantis. This put the world directly on the front lines (or at least the front lines of the side lines) of the ensuing Godswar during which the planet was predictably and thoroughly devastated. Even as the violence wound down elsewhere after the collapse of hyperspace, the people of Lost Ground carried on their microcosm of the great war, far transcending the memory of their former affiliations. They were not to cease hostilities until bringing them to their final, genocidal conclusion eight hundred years later. Throughout and after this period, civilization continued to stagnate or decline and the once green and blue world turned fundamentally hostile to humanity. In the present day, most Lost Grounders live within the confines of Vector and a few other hemispheric Shield Cities on the Northern Continent with most of the world abandoned to a deadly, mutant biosphere.

Lost Ground Principles and Interests

Genre: Dystopian Magitech Dictatorship; the Most Final of Fantasies

Lost Ground's sole viable polity was founded about two hundred years ago following the genocide of the last Merai, a capstone finale to centuries of war which left a few million humans as the last survivors on a depopulated and devastated world. It is a thoroughly molten pot of cultural remnants from the planet's original, far more numerous inhabitants, with Japanese being the biggest contributor. Although they have no living memory of the Godswar era, Lost Grounders are identified more with Atlantis than anything else and are thought to be at least partially Atlantean descendants. This has especially been the case since the immigration of survivors from Mount Olympus with a continuous Atlantean history following the war on Myrkliea.

For its small population, the Empire's government and social system is considerable in scale and presence but not in complexity. There are no delusions of rule through divine right nor any native sense of democracy (as opposed to rebellions of desperation) except what has been introduced via interplanetary relations. Through their command of power, mages are the gentry and the emperor is the emperor because he is the most powerful mage around. This attitude has put the Empire quite at odds with regional superpower of Sceptre but has led to surprisingly productive and pragmatic relations with some other powers. While there's no denying that Lost Ground scores quite low on the Cure Joy Index, the Joy Peace State nevertheless sees Lost Ground as a valuable partner in relocation projects for its undesireables while the Papacy has found them to be pragmatic allies on their Crusades with high impact despite the limited numbers of their contributions.

Advantages

Ancient World
Even the briefest rambles through Lost Ground's hinterlands reveals that it was once a far greater world than in the present day. The Southern Continent has entire ruined cities that dwarf Vector, crafted from an ancient, imperishable architecture. Of more interest to the regime are the caches of weapons that have been lost to time, waiting for rediscovery after the passing of eight centuries of war, though sometimes it's hard to be sure whether a given wonder weapon comes out of Lost Ground itself or one of its irrepressible military ateliers.

Mercenaries
With weapons to be dug up everywhere, oftentimes it isn't the state that gets to them first. Besides homegrown outfits however, Lost Ground tends to be attractive to mercenaries in general. With her place between two blue lines, location is a primary reason as is the circumstance of being an open port at the center of so much conflict over the past decade. Others who seek purpose, arcane learning, or even Lost Ground's oddly open intellectual scene wind up gathered on this unlikely planet.

Exalimphone
Like a Batphone except ours calls up Cuselis. While Exalims are not into reducing mountains into enough ash to fit into a thimble, individuals fuck with Atlantis at their own peril.

Disadvantages

No Population Growth
Originally I just didn't want to track fractional changes like population growth...

Angry Population
...or the population industrial bonus... Now I kind of need them!

Barren World
Actually, places that look normal aren't uncommon on Lost Ground, especially on the Northern Continent. However, even those places are never fertile. The Southern Continent wouldn't be considered barren if you enjoy toxic spores and mycelium.

Resource Poor World
Most of the easy stuff has been tapped out.

Disaster Zone (Mutant Biosphere)
The Nanoforest is present on both continents and is composed of nanofungus, a form of life that does not respond normally even to life magick. Although it grows extremely quickly if left unattended, it can be spread even faster by occasional uprisings of its gigantic, human devouring inhabitants. Fortunately, the Forest does not seem to like all locations and sometimes even retreats from places it had colonized before. The last major spread of the Forest occurred shortly after the close of the Myrkliean War and was uniquely catalyzed by the escape of an Atlantean nanological weapon, an event which points to what may have caused the rise of such an unnatural ecology in the first place.

Records and archaeology show that Nanoforest was present either by the end of the Godswar or immediately afterwards. Having long since abandoned any attempts to understand the Forest, responding to the threat with military force is a regular event for Lost Grounders. Presently all but a single area of the Southern Continent is overrun. On the Northern Continent, it mostly exists in the abandoned west but pockets still erupt now and again from other locales.

Lord of All
Lost Ground's top-down, mage driven society requires a strong unifying authority. The empire has existed for almost two centuries with a single emperor whose position rests on his superiority as the greatest of the mages. It is unknown what Lost Ground's natural equilibrium would otherwise be, though some kind of division of power amongst archmages seems likely.

Pariah
But at least we're honest, and that's the most important thing.

Undiplomatic
Probably has to do with corruption and mages.

Climate

Lost Ground has a warm climate and is heavily overcast year round due to the state of the atmosphere which is the colour and consistency of a bad bruise.

Lost Ground

Heartland

The heartland of the empire is home to the vast majority of the Alter and Atlantean populations, being relatively free of danger. Like most of Lost Ground, it is extremely urban, recalling a time when the hinterlands were desperately dangerous even on this continent. The vast majority of the population live and work in hemispheric cities built of dark metal and connected by magical bullet trains. Smaller towns and villages exist but are rare and strictly concerned with either agriculture or resource extraction. Most of the migrant labour from Joy live in the cities as well, though some are engaged in rural labour at long disused sites.

Vector (Super)
Lost Grounders: 4,000,000
Joyish: 4,000,000 (enslaved)

Wealth: 27
Industry: 30
Ether: 30
Research: 120

Connections: Little Atlantis (West/Northwest); Hinata (Southwest); Ariake (South); Windy Mountains (Northeast); Fuuka (Northeast)

The capital's population has doubled in the past few years and the husks of the hemispheric city's central underlevels are now populated again after decades or centuries of disuse. By far the alpha city of the planet, most Lost Grounders live here at some point in their lives, for higher education if nothing else. It is also host to the planet's only spaceport. Damaged by a Samothracian nuclear weapon, it has been repaired and reinforced over the years and now more of the sky is covered up by metallic platforms and spires than ever before.

Ariake (Very Difficult - Mountains)
Lost Grounders: 200,000
Joyish: 1,000,000 (enslaved)

Wealth: 1

Connections: Little Atlantis (North); Ariake (East); Vector (Northeast)

A half-underground shield city built in a relatively remote area dotted with rivers, caves and underground water.

Little Atlantis (Difficult - Temperate Forest)
Lost Grounders: 400,000
Atlanteans: 400,000
Joyish: 2,500,000 (enslaved)

Wealth: 6
Industry: 9
Ether: 6
Research: 0

Connections: Seize (West); Hinata (South); Vector (East/Southeast)

A formerly unimportant city that was settled by surviving Atlanteans from Mount Olympus, leading to it gaining the name "Little Atlantis" (Petite Atlantide) via an unknown Joyish immigrant. A few Atlanteans seem not to like the name though others find it ruefully appropriate. The city is in the vicinity of one of the few naturally forested regions on the planet and while migrant labour is involved in harvesting from it, actually damaging it is out of the question. As a result, expansion of the city to accomodate population growth has been labour intensive but dramatic, and comfortable, since the Joyish are in many cases building nicer new places and get to take over the existing accomodations. Vast platforms now extend out over the sea on enormous pillars whilst a network of tunnels and chambers grows underground.

Seize (Difficult - Wastelands)
Lost Grounders: 900,000
Joyish: 2,500,000 (enslaved)

Wealth: 4
Industry: 9 (5 owned by Church of Nyrethen)
Ether: 6
Research: 0

Connections: Little Atlantis (East)

Seize is the launching ground of expeditions to burn away Nanoforest uprisings in the west in order to keep the land clear for future resettlement. Ever since Tolas was leveled and the western portion of the continent essentially abandoned, this city has become the new western frontier of the empire. It is also where the Church of Nyrethen is most active on Lost Ground, with some of the infrastructure there owned by them. A key feature of the city is the adjoining bridge over an ancient canal that joins the ocean north and south of the continent.

The East

Long ago called the Country of Wind and Flowers, history and archaeology reveals this as an area where believers in the Japanese gods once dwelt. Yet, though the land here is as picturesque as it gets on Lost Ground, the original civilization did not survive. The area was lightly inhabited for centuries as surviving humans gravitated towards the state's core. With Joyish migrant labour now available however, recolonization has occurred and long dormant furnaces are active once again.

Fuuka (Open)
Lost Grounders: 300,000
Joyish: 2,000,000 (enslaved)

Wealth: 2
Industry: 10
Ether: 6
Research: 0

Connections: Vector (Southwest); Windy Mountains (South); Hakurei (East)

Fuuka is the gateway to the East and was almost entirely free of habitation for two hundred years. Today, Joyish labourers and Lost Grounder management again walk the once abandoned corridors of the city. The moss-covered hemispheric walls are surrounded by a vast patchwork of barracks and plantations.

Windy Mountains (Very Difficult - Mountains)
Lost Grounders: 10,000
Joyish: 300,000 (enslaved)

Wealth: 0
Industry: 5
Ether: 0
Research: 0

Connections: Vector (West); Fuuka (North); Hakurei (East)

A mountain range that is, overall, fairly aptly named. Contains the highest mountains on the Northern Continent. The region is dotted with ruins and mines now being worked by Joyish labour.

Hakurei (Open)
Lost Grounders: 600,000
Joyish: 1,000,000 (enslaved)

Wealth: 6
Industry: 10
Ether: 5

Connections: Fuuka (West); Windy Mountains (Southwest)

A large city overlooking the ocean cliffs at the eastern extreme of the continent. It is surrounded by ruins of a somewhat different variety than elsewhere.

Belka Island

The large volcanic island of Belka lies north of the Northern Continent and is the only part of Lost Ground that has cold winters and sees snow. It is also probably the cleanest part of the world, sees the sun a great deal more than anywhere else on the planet and even has hot springs to boot. As such, it is about as resorty as you can get on a dystopian planet like Lost Ground.

Belka (Very Difficult - Island; Intervening Ocean)
Lost Grounders: 250,000
Atlanteans: 100,000

Wealth: 1

Ether: 5

Southern Continent

The Southern Continent is a much larger place than the north but has been lightly inhabited during the past few centuries. Recently, most of the remaining inhabited areas were overrun all at once by the Forest in a disaster catalyzed by an Atlantean weapon. Since then, the influx of Joyish migrant labour has enabled the empire to stage a reclamation and recolonization effort.

Suwa (Open; Intervening Ocean)
Lost Grounders: 400,000
Ikarian: 400,000 (unhoused)
Joyish: 5,700,000 (enslaved)

Wealth: 2
Industry: 10
Ether: 5
Research: 0

Suwa was the only city to survive the destruction of the South and was flooded by troops and refugees as other areas of the continent became uninhabitable. With access to the ocean, the city also became the natural rallying point for civilization's inevitable counterattack. Spurred on by the need to exploit the planet's dwindling space and resources wherever possible, Lost Ground imported vast human resources from Joyeux in order to clear away the nanofungus. Two years on, Suwa has overtaken Vector as the most populous city on Lost Ground: a vast wheel of clearing camps and paths surrounding a ring of freshly cleared Ikarian fields and olive groves surrounding a central metallic core inhabited by the Lost Grounders.

Keyway

Hourai Island (Very Difficult - Island)
Gorghannians: 20,000
Liolanthe: 10,000 (enslaved)
Pureblood Yuan-Ti: 35,000 (enslaved)

Wealth: 9
Industry: 9
Ether: 5
Research: 0

Lost Ground's sole colony - an island to the west of Keyway's pangaea continent. Probably run by a combination of the Church of Nyrethen and the Gorghannians that have settled there since the demonic uprising.

Technomagic

ALTER (Engineering 500/Matter 500)

Advanced Liquid-metal Techno-Enchantment Resonance is a technomagic discipline underlying much of the military power of the Empire.

(+3) Alter Furnace
An Alter furnace is a self-contained, technomagical, liquid-based additive manufacturing plant; essentially an arcane nanolathe that gives a Build Time Multiplier of 1 and avoids the need for intense heat to work even the toughest of magical materials. They are exceedingly robust and maintenance-free once their enchantments are set, requiring only that random gouts of vapour be occasionally emitted and copious amounts of suspect liquids to be piped in. The most sophisticated type are those used to create and maintain marionettes in which case they are supplementarily powered by fanservice via a cover made of clarionite impact glass.

(+4) Magitech Weapons
Full weapons range on complex units. Raises enemy Save by 1.

The iconic weapon of Lost Ground is the Crima claw, which has been the standard arm of infantry and armours for centuries. A Crima claw's active component is a technomagical liquid metal that can change into any shape the wielder desires, from nearly invisible threads and swords to shields or maces. Once solidified, it retains shape and edge as well as any adamantium. They can also fire needles of metal as projectiles through internal pressure or, in newer Alter-Shift versions, through the new liquid metal's inherent motive magic.

Basic weapons issued to front line infantry appear as very bulky gauntlets and are somewhat limited in the precision of manipulation possible with the liquid metal. For the empire's mecha or the elite MAKO Corps, Crima claws are usually linked to the suit's own store of liquid metal, greatly increasing the available mass of metal and allowing weight to be distributed automatically by the AMBAC system. The principle is the same for marionettes who are mostly liquid metal by mass (though not volume). The personal weapon of a mage might appear as a jeweled bracer or armlet and be of high enough quality to coat the arm or hand in a film of liquid metal without hindering dexterity or create wires as thin as spider silk.

Additional weapons coming into service more recently include various magically powered beam weapons and remote MN Fangs.

(+1) Morphic Armour
Armour crafted from Alter technomagic can dynamically reform without losing its protective qualities. The penalties of heavy armour (size, upkeep and encumberance) accumulate more slowly and even units that normally cannot tolerate armour at all can take at least one level without compromise.

(+1) Liquid Metal Form
Allows full transformation with a single added cap (normally requires two) and the carrying of three externals on aircraft.

(+1) Super Regeneration
Regeneration is super-effective and damage control rolls are much easier.

SHIFT (Engineering 220/Movement 300)

SHIFT is a new and emerging technomagical discipline inspired by Lost Ground's encounter with the teleporting supersoldiers of Samothrace.

(+3) Dimensional Resonance Armour
Causes liquid metal to reflect or shunt incoming energy into another dimension. Each application of Resonant Morphic Armour also acts as a Shield cap.

(+2) Mercurion Vortex Engine
Allows the construction of a forcefield drive.

Future

(+2) Resonant Mechanics
Save on upkeep?

(+3) Astrally Synchronized Uiharu-Resonance Aerenite
By manipulating the resonance on nanoscale aerenite, it is possible to create solid state gates suitable for both civilian and military use.

Kasaya Natsuki, High General of the Alter Empire, is the overall head of Lost Ground's military forces. Being the most powerful person in the thaumocratic state who is not herself a mage, she is probably also one of the world's most presentable faces of diplomacy abroad, uncomfortable as she is in such a role. At home, her incomplete but continually increasing control over the military (one of the dominant forces in Lost Ground's fairly simplistic society) has eroded the interests of powerful mages and magical families enough to make her more than a few domestic enemies. She is more than canny enough to realize that her reliance on the Emperor's favour is intentional but also genuinely believes that Lost Ground cannot function without the centralizing influence of his - or at someone's - overwhelming magical power.

Still, as much as her qualifications and readiness are suspect and her lattitude to run abroad questionable, there are no doubts about her abilities in duel or battle. She pilots Concealed the Conclusion, a Godswar era armour and one of the two most powerful mecha in Lost Ground's star-studded arsenal.

Alyssa Aire Altrusia is the second generation leader of the Altrusia Fleet which has wandered the stars in exile for many years in rejection of the Sternreich's anti-Newtype stance and not a little resentment of their homelands disenfranchising peace. When her aunt died, Alyssa took over command and led her subordinates ever east, operating as mercenaries and pirates. Having lived the naval life for two decades, her experience is a valuable complement to the somewhat limited and narrow expertise of the Marduk girls as neither the Atlanteans nor Lost Ground have any real naval tradition. Since her arrival, she has struck a friendship with Lost Ground's High General, which is quite unlike the relationship between their top pilots.

Privately, Alyssa suspects she may be some kind of genetically engineered supersoldier, or perhaps the equivalent from Ohmshire. Regardless however, she appears to have the admiral's ear. Rumour is that she was also the one who suggested Lost Ground as a destination for the Altrusia fleet based on her forward scouting and far flung independent contracting.

Yuan-ti Queen

Tan Ji, the Serpent Queen (Covert Operations-Spy, Politics, Questionable Loyalty)
Combat: 0
Conviction: 0
Mental: 2

Social: 3
Tan Ji was the queen of a Yuan-Ti city-state that existed on Hourai Island. As a Pureblood, she was born into the lowest, most human-like underclass of her society but used traditional Yuan-ti virtues of patience, cunning and powerful magical abilities learned from an unknown source in order to attain her people's blood-splattered throne. She had then been in the process of consolidating power when her small country was overrun by the overwhelming military strength of the Alter Empire. Rather than execute her however, the Emperor saw fit to bind her instead, perhaps seeing the former queen as an attractive yet bracingly dangerous trophy. Yet, while this humiliation is outwardly her most immediate agitation, it serves to remember that she rose to power through deception, not pride. Under Lost Ground's occupation, the less human and more physically dangerous upper castes of Yuan-ti, whom she herself had ample reason to resent, had been expelled or exterminated with such out-of-hand abruptness that she has been left somewhat adrift in her attitude towards her own people. Should she be sad, angry or care? Is she responsible or at least answerable? Her opinion of her people's former worship of a god of destruction is also unknown, though she does not appear religious.
