====== LA Gath, Last of the Giants ======

===== Lore =====
Gath is a land still trying to catch up to the prosperity of those around it. When it was known as [[hinnom-ea|Hinnom]], it had a lead over its surroundings; this was provided by the Grigori (the "Watchers"), six angels of full Celestial splendor, who descended upon Mount Hermon and taught the Avvim their secrets. For better or for worse, the now-infamous Azazel taught the Avvim the "high arts" of civilization -- cosmetics, warcraft, and exploitation -- and the Avvim thus defeated the other small Giants in their lands. 

The Watchers committed one undeniable sin, which had them excised from the world; they took Avvite wives and laid with them, resulting in the birth of the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephilim|Nephilim]]. Though Titans of unquenchable appetites, the Nephilim were not [[demons]] but living men, and to banish them would require the [[fear-of-the-flood|flooding of the world]]. This never happened, and Hinnom did not have enough rain to keep the Nephilim cowed, so the insatiable goliaths made Hinnom theirs. They ate, used, and eventually discarded Hinnom, siring the Rephaim with Avvite wives of their own in the process. The Rephaim, in-turn, broke Hinnomite society; both with the size of their mouths, and with their quantity. All-male, and destined to sire only male children, the Rephaim were cursed by the Heavens (or genetics) to grow weaker with each generation; and the Avvite men, losing their wives and crushes to the Rephaites' charms, were destined to either degrade or disappear into this new subrace.

Gath is (or at least //was//) a vast land, largely vacant of its natives. The largest generation of Rephaim was in the era of [[ashdod-ma|Ashdod]], perhaps the only Hinnomite city to survive the whims of the first brood; this was a dark age for the Rephaim, with little to eat and few women to court, one in which the "degenerated" Giants learned some decency and humility. But while a little suffering is good for the character, too much can bend an individual to dangerous extremes. Ashdod's ruling tribe, the Anakim, declined far more gracefully than the other Rephaim, and their [[age|lifespans]] kept up with their stature. There are still some Anakim who remember Ashdod's fall to either the humans or the [[abysia-la|Abysians]], some who remember when humans didn't quarrel in their presence, and even some who recall stories of the first Rephaites' [[Blood|Bloody]] rites. Fearing for the survival of their final city, and given absolute control of [[holy|religious]] affairs, the Anakim have ordered that blood shall be spilt anew... Only, instead of drinking it themselves, they shall offer it to strengthen their [[Pretender God|Lord]] and savior. The smaller folk are mixed on this, and even some of the smaller Giants are horrified.

----

//"Hinnom, Ashdod and Gath are heavily influenced by ancient Israelite, Canaanite and Philistine concepts. I have always been intrigued and fascinated by biblical mythology, and had long I wanted to include the Nephilim and biblical Genesis myths into the game. However, I was worried that I would not do the sources justice, so it took a while before I finally got down to finishing the nations. The Bible, the Book of Enoch, the Dead Sea scrolls and the Ras Shamra texts of Ugarit and interpretations of these texts are the main sources of the nations. Gath, ... draws more heavily from Israelite and Philistine concepts. Early Israelite religion and history with a centralized cult at the temple and Israelite tribes, combined with the legends of David and Goliath of Gath are obvious sources for the late iteration of the nation. I wanted the nation to be an abomination, slowly becoming more civilized throughout the ages. Hinnom is perhaps more than any other nation in the game an evil nation. I'm not very fond of the concept of evil, but it would be difficult to claim that the cannibalistic giants of Hinnom are anything but."// -Illwinter

{{:nations:la:gath:iassacharite_scout.png?nolink }} Most of the population of Gath -- the realm as a whole, not the city -- is **human**. These **Size 3** (three-to-a-square) fellows are prohibited from blacksmithing. Most of them are perfectly fine in {{:abilities:wasteland_survival.png?15&nolink}}**[[Wasteland-Survival|Wastes]]**, and a fair amount of them have well-trained troops with **11 [[Attack Skill]]** and **11 [[Defence Skill]]**. Eight of the Twelve Tribes of Israel can be found here: 
  * The Tribes of __**Reuben**__ and __**Naphtali**__ are large but pretty average, with only 10's in most stats (including ATT and DEF).
  * The Tribe of __**Iassachar**__ has only **7 [[Morale]]**; but to be fair, they stick to roles where Morale would be low anyway.
  * The Tribes of __**Zebulun**__ and __**Asher**__ are rich, and they have professional troops. Asherites use their wealth to purchase iron gear (but //aren't// used to Wastelands), while Zebulunites have **13 Morale**.
  * The Tribe of __**Gad**__ has {{:abilities:resist_fire.png?15&nolink}}**5 [[Fire Resistance]]** and **11 [[Strength]]**, attributed to being slightly Abysian.
  * The Tribe of __**Benjamin**__ has {{:abilities:pillager.png?15&nolink}}**[[Pillager|Pillagers]]**, owing to some hard times the other human Tribes put upon them.
  * The Tribe of __**Levi**__ is incredibly zealous, giving Gath {{:abilities:sacred.png?15&nolink}}**[[Sacred]]** troops in every province! It's a shame that, other than their elevated Morale (and being Sacred), they're pretty average.

{{:nations:la:gath:gittite_commander.png?nolink }} Most native **Gittites** wouldn't count as "giants" in some definitions; they're only **Size 4** (two-to-a-square). They are very similar to the Avvim at the start of their history, such that only their little horns, their {{:abilities:resist_fire.png?15&nolink}}**5 Fire Resistance**, and their fashion sense distinguishes them. Gittite soldiers have **24 HP**, **1 Natural Protection**, **15 Strength**, **11 Attack Skill and Defence Skill**, **12 Morale and Magic Resistance**, and adaptations for {{:abilities:wasteland_survival.png?15&nolink}}**Wastes**.

{{:nations:la:gath:gibbor.png?nolink }} The proper "**Giants**" of Gath are limited to the capital, counting the **Size 6** Gibborim, their Seren rulers, and their **Size 7** Anakite elders. These men vary in statistics, but they're all {{:abilities:sacred.png?15&nolink}}**[[Sacred]]**, they all have {{:abilities:resist_fire.png?15&nolink}}**5 Fire Resistance**, and they all {{:abilities:gluttony.png?15&nolink}}[[Gluttony|eat]] like far-larger beings.
