====== MA Phlegra, Deformed Giants ======
===== Lore =====
Phlegra is a kingdom of giants who have enslaved the much more numerous human population. The Gigantes of Phlegra are the descendants of the Gigantes of Mekone, who made war upon the gods of men. Punished for their sins the descendants of Mekone no longer appear as proud hoplites in gleaming armor, instead they are deformed and cursed with a violent temper. Since the fall of Mekone, the Gigantes resent pretending gods and religious faiths, and only the human population of the kingdom devote themselves to the awakening God. Phlegra is also the home of the sheep-herding Cyclopes, another tribe of giants. Like their predecessors the Gigantes of Phlegra have enslaved their neighbors and formed a kingdom under the rule of their Tyrants. Unscrupulous human mages have developed ways to serve the Tyrants by dominating less fortunate magically adept humans. Now human taskmasters and oppressors cause more fear in the populace than the Tyrants themselves.
//"Mekone and its successors are inspired by giants of Greek myth. Described either as strong and proud hoplites, or in later times, as monstrous beings with serpent legs, the idea of a nation of giants that doesn’t follow the development of most other giant nations, with smaller and smaller giants in the later ages, started to take form. ... I also wanted to incorporate the hubris of the giants and the Gigantomachia—the war against the gods—into the nation, which in turn created the backstory for the middle and late age versions of the nation. \\ \\
Phlegra in the middle age is a nation that has lost most of its proud legacy. The Gigantes of Mekone are cursed for their hubris and are becoming physically and mentally afflicted. I also wanted to add shepherding cyclopes to the Elder Cyclopes of earlier times. At first, the nation felt a bit bland, but when I started to think on the slaves and the Phlegran society the idea of the oppressors and slave mages appeared. The feel of the nation took a whole new turn and the slave mage mechanics made for entirely new tactics not available to other nations." -Illwinter//

==== National Special Features ====
**Turmoil Limit + 1**
**Unrest:** All provinces under the dominion of Phlegra will have their unrest increased every turn. Higher dominion strength in the province yields a greater increase in unrest. In a disciple game this will only have an effect if Phlegra is the Pretender God and then it will affect the disciples as well. Being a disciple of Phlegra will be difficult.
**Magical Oppression:** Like [[pythium-ma|Pythium]], Phlegra has innate [[Communion]] Slaves. These fellows typically have a magic path, unlike the Pythian equivalents, but this has a decent chance to mismatch with what the Masters possess. Phlegra also has innate Communion Masters, who automatically command these Slaves without the need for casting **??Communion Master??** (a spell they cannot cast anyway), and the nation also has a national [[items|item]] for providing the trait to other mages.
{{:nations:ma:phlegra:helote_warrior.png?nolink }} The **Helotes** make up most of Phlegra's manpower. These **[[Size]] 3** humans are {{:abilities:slave.png?15&nolink}} **[[Slaves]]** of greater beings, possessing a miserable **7 Morale**, or **6** for the archers. Generations of martial servitude have changed the average helot's character, giving them an enormous **14 Combat Speed** naked; the archers do not share in this, possibly of a more-dignified ancestry. \\ {{:nations:ma:phlegra:trophimos_priest.png?nolink }} Phlegra's human commanders (and mages, and priests) are mostly not of helot stock, but are rather **Trophimoi** imported from neighboring realms. They are not slaves, but free(-ish) men who pursue the ancient Mekonean arts. Still, the climate of Phlegra is nerve-wracking for this lot, and most of them have **9 Morale**.
{{:nations:ma:phlegra:cyclops_warrior.png?nolink }} **Younger Cyclopes** have rallied to Phlegra's banner, at the behest of the unrelated Eldre Cyclops smiths. Grace-wise, they are a far cry from the Gigantes of [[mekone-ea|Mekone]], but they fill largely the same role. The average Younger Cyclops is **Size 6**, and possesses **42 HP** and **5 Natural [[Protection]]**. He has **22 Strength**, but is not particularly good at using it; **10 Attack Skill** is low by giant standards, to say nothing of his **9 Defence Skill** naked, his **7 Precision**, and his {{:abilities:undisciplined.png?15&nolink}} **[[Undisciplined|lack of Discipline]]**. He is soft but brave, showing **9 Magic Resistance** but **13 Morale**. Last but not least, he is energetic but a bit of a stumbler, possessing **2 [[Encumbrance]]**, **16 Map Movement**, and **17 Combat Speed** naked.
