Re: The Last Days of Atlantis
Bluethomas, please keep your Atlantis materials in this one thread. They are all part of one campaign setting, after all, and as you are submitting rather a lot of stuff they are kind of filling up the Workshop. Also, dividing them up will make it hard for anyone interested in the setting to find them all, after a few days/weeks pass.

True Atlantian
The best kept secret in Atlantis is the fact that those who call themselves Atlantians are in fact descendants of the slaves of the True Atlantians who are all believed to be long dead. How and why the True Atlantians perished is unknown. But they have left behind great monuments to their past presence. No one knows what the True Atlantians looked like or what their presence here on Pangaea was for. It is thought that they hail from a Prime Material Plane similar to Pangaea. Atlantis the city is the center of these great monuments.
Rumors
Theories abound as to who the True Atlantians were and why they visited Pangaea. A few theories include:
Fallen Gods
The devices of the Atlantians are strange and beyond anything found on Pangaea. Certainly they are things that only the gods can create. The real question for this theory is were they malignant or benign?
Crash Landed
This theory states that the True Atlantians were from a place past the stars and that their coming here was an accident. One theory says that the moment they stepped out, the world itself was so foreign to them that they died.
Sinister Motive
The people that repeat this story say that the True
Atlantians came here with dark motives. They point out that the weapons of the True Atlantians are horrible indicators of a people here to take over the world.

ISHTAR
“The Divine Whore” Demi-goddess of Luck, Wealth & Prostitution
Symbol: Shapely Nude image of the goddess
Favored Weapon: Man Catcher
The daughter of Re and the nymph Daphne, Ishtar is the goddess of Luck, Wealth and Prostitution. Though a demigoddess of little power, temples dedicated to
Ishtar far outnumber those dedicated to others. Only in cities under control of the Church on the One True Light have very few, if any dedicated to her. And when they are present, they are hidden away.
Her priesthood consist of Sacred Prostitutes who collect money that is used to fund her temples which in turn gives out the monies to various needy individuals and institutions.
Though many of her priesthood are women, certainly not all are, since to Ishtar all forms of sex are sacred. Her “temples” while always having an image of the goddess somewhere, consists of rooms or sectioned off areas to house men there to give their offerings. The walls are adorned with erotic images.

Knights of the Celestial Vault
This Knightly Order has a very strange history. According to the Vault, Five peasants, while working, were almost struck by a meteor that fell to Pangaea. The meteor gave off a strange energy that gave the five the gift of prophecy. The Five had a vision of a plot to kill the King. When they had stopped receiving the vision, the Five automatically decided to go and stop the assassination. In the ensuring events the Five stopped the killer and were rewarded with the title of Knighthood by the King. All did not end well though for the Five had kept the source of their information secret. When word got out to the King on how they had come upon the information he demanded the Five to turn over the meteor to him for he feared the meteor. Now why this was and why the Five decided to keep it a secret in the first place depends on who tells the story. But in the end the result was the Five breaking away from the King (after a bloody battle) and forming a knightly order of their own. This order was never very numerous to begin with. While the exact number worldwide. While they are on good terms with the major Orders (for those who have heard of them) they are seen at best as being quaint. Being very traditional and old fashioned, they do on allow women into the ranks. Even so, this group of knights do not suffer from a machismo attitude one would expect from a group that does not allow women. In fact, they are known to work with women outside the order when on assignments.

Stone Titians
Stone Titans
Standing alone in the Sunkissed Ocean are the Stone Titans. Five (though only four can be seen from the surface) statues of immense size that stand from the Ocean floor with just their heads sticking above the surface. All identical males. The fifth one having been broken in half from some long lost event. No one knows for sure who put them there or what their purpose were for.

People of Note: Casta
Casta
Amazon Envoy
As the Amazon envoy to the outside world, Casta walks a thin line. She must be all warrior, and stay true to her Amazon ideology. All the while going far out into the world of men and seeing what it has to offer. The queen of the Amazons has heard many stories of Casta's exploits while away and plans to put her to the test soon
