==INVASION==


===Magic Arsenal===
==History==
700 mana
The Andrynian Empire arose from the machinations of a cabal of warlocks, led by the self-styled Dark Lord Andryn. Whether this first emperor was Alfar, human, or something else entirely remains disputed to this day. What is known is that he spent the better part of two decades in the jungle-covered highlands of <needs map>,  far away from the prying eyes of the crumbling Alfar Empire, seeking out the then barbarous tribes of trolls and subjugating them. The isolated outlying provinces of the Alfar Empire initially crumbled before the advance of his monstrous horde when it finally emerged from the rainforests.
Level 5 Spells<br>
However, to Andryn's great displeasure, an invasion by an army of savage monsters supported by infernal magic proved to be just what it took to re-ignite the dying fighting spirit of the waning Alfars. He found out the hard way that savage trolls with only the barest veneer of civilisation were not yet a match for what remained of the professional Alfar military, and his initial successes turned into a desperate rout.
1x Blood Boil (The Blood of enemy soldiers boils) (125m) <br>
Bloodied, beaten, and bitter, the Dark Lord's forces retreated into the safety of the jungles, reduced to hiding out and lording over simple troll villages instead of the rich Alfar provinces. Rather than sink into depression, Andryn swore to return to Alfar lands one day. In the meantime, he tried to make the best of a bad situation and started educating his brutish minions, making use of the human slaves they had dragged along during the retreat, and encouraged his subordinate warlocks to do the same. In stark contrast to his previous ventured, civilising the trolls was successful beyond his wildest expectations. However, it would be up to his descendants to expand his empire to its current borders.
1x Blood Legion (Summons Legion of Blood Elementals) (125m) <br>
2x Arcane Blood Empowerment (Empowers soldiers with unearthly strength and vigour) (0) <br>
1x Blood Delerium (Blood Delerium, Confusion spell) (125m) <br>

5x Regeneration Spells (Heals injured soldiers)<br>
5x Delerium Magic (Confusion spell)<br>

Blood Magic<br>
The Mageron Of Zephiri use the essence of life itself to power their spells, using magic strikingly similar to that of the necromancer lords themselves, most mages will have on hand a few slaves to power their nefarious wizardry, using the spark of divinity within the blood to enable greater power. It is often said is it the blood magic that has given the Mageron the ability to rule, able to manipulate the blood of their lesser to bend them to their will. (Nevermind, here for fluff)

Colossi
Zephiri Colossi are incredible feats of animated metal, the peak of an enchanters art they are unwavering siege engines that can wade through inordinate amounts of enemies to crush, tear and destroy defences with an array of magical weaponry. (Requested ability would be hold more weapons than is normal for a siege machine or be able to equip large weaponry)

[19:24] <@Shrike> hmm well say 200 adamantium and 1000 mana, and it pays double for all armor you put on it [19:24] <@Shrike> And it can hold one large or two medium weapons
