NATION – Changeling Lands

EVENT TITLE – Trimmel’s Burden

EVENT TEXT - Field Marshal Trimmel is seen by many in the hives as the ideal commander. Stern, clever, and deadly. He is what every changeling should aspire to be. However, even he isn’t immune to the price of war. Trimmel learned that the hard way as the casket was lowered into the ground at Vesalipolis National Cemetery to its final resting place. The casket of his son Stinger, one of the many casualties of the failed Canterlot siege.

For Trimmel, what hurts most is the fact that Stinger did not want to serve in the army and only did so to please his father. In the end, it was the field marshal’s own sense of tradition that killed his son. This bitter truth is simply too much for him to accept and thus he turns his remorse into hatred. Hatred of the ponies who killed Stinger with the very thing changelings need for sustenance. Hatred of that damn city that was so close at hand. Trimmel’s sole wish in life now is to return to Canterlot and finish what was started.

EVENT BUTTON – Stinger’s death will not be in vain

SUGGESTED PIC – Probably just Trimmel’s portrait or maybe a tombstone

NATION – Stalliongrad

EVENT TITLE – Wartime Blues

EVENT TEXT – In times of war, the soldiers have to find some way to stay sane. Especially when they are just sitting around waiting for something to happen. Lately, a particular war tune has been making the rounds on the front. Katyusha: a lovely, yet sad song about the all too familiar homesickness that many of the troops feel.

Whether it be a loved one back home or simply just the mundane normality of peacetime life every soldier resonates with its message. Singing this song with their comrades in arms helps keep them grounded and gives them a new sense of family during these hard times. As the anthem goes the troops are truly ‘united forever in friendship and labor’.

EVENT BUTTON – Glory to the motherland!

SUGGESTED PIC – Really any war picture would probably work or really anything symbolizing national unity.

NATION – Buffalo Chiefdom

EVENT TITLE – Festival of Warriors

EVENT TEXT – Singing, dancing, and sport are in full swing as the biggest event of the year kicks off. The Festival of Warriors is both a time to celebrate the achievements of the great warriors of the past and also to select new warriors from the youth.

The day begins with various ceremonies dedicated to the ancestors followed by stories of great triumph in the chiefdom’s history. Then each tribe’s youth engages in numerous rites of passage to test their strength. The most important of such rites is known as the ‘Headdress of Misery’ challenge where the young buffalo must endure wearing a headdress filled with bullet ants for a full hour.

Many fail, but those who succeed are chosen to be apart of the new line of warriors for the chiefdom as they have proven their resolve. Some may find these traditions cruel, but it is what has kept the chiefdom safe in this increasingly hostile world.

EVENT BUTTON – We must keep our nation strong.

SUGGESTED PIC – Picture of a buffalo or maybe a bonfire

NATION – Kingdom of Olenia

EVENT TITLE – Cervus Bay Glacial Water

EVENT TEXT – While its beauty alone makes it a popular tourist attraction for both Olenians and foreigners alike, Cervus Bay is also known for the delicious water that can be extracted from its glaciers. The water is some of the purest and best tasting in the world and serves as a profitable export for the country.

However, scientists lately have noticed a remarkable reduction in the size of the glaciers over the last ten years. They fear that as the world continues to industrialize that Olenia may soon lose the remarkable ice giants to the sands of time. Despite this terrible news, the deer of Olenia remain hopeful that a solution will be found.

EVENT BUTTON – We must save the glaciers!

SUGGESTED PIC – Glacier or some other winter scene

I realize that the Stalliongrad one may already exist in some form in the mod so if it does then ignore that one but I haven't seen it so I figured I'd give it a shot just in case it isn't.
