Welcome to Raider's Pinnacle

Territory of the Periwinkle Kingdom!

In the southernmost part of the land, a pleasant and luxurious forest threw its roots. Many creatures from temperate climates evolve within these woods, many of which are still undiscovered. Within this forest lies the city of Owanka. A first time visitor would definitely be surprised upon seeing the city for the first time. While most of the country side is empty, the city is in constant motion. A former colony, founded by brave travelers from Periopolis, it evolved into the de facto capital of Northern Periwinkle. Even so, the city and it's area are still great locations for relaxing espaces from the city or vacations, due to the high number of nature reserves and the city's attitude towards nature preservation. There are three main roads that lead to and from Owanka, reaching all the neighbooring Periwinkle territories. The Orangered territories to the east remain unconnected, not by ideological belief, but simply due to conditions that reign in the tundra.

The tundra might be the best asset of the land, but it is definitely not being the best feature. The cold and desolate looking expense of land successfully kept most adventures at bay for many years, killing the improperly prepared and the most adventurous without qualm. There isn't much to say about this grey, dreadful place. The very sight of it seem to suck the life out of most living, and for good cause. Very few travel to this place, and even fewer return.

The few that survived their trek through the cold permafrost and greeted by an impressive mountain range. The peaks, standing proud and tall, rise abruptly from the desert-like country-side and seem to reach for the sky. Most days, the peaks are clearly seen from the base, as it seem to never get cloudy that far up. If you are lucky enough to have survived until here and manage to escape from death while climbing the mountain, you will be rewarded with two glorious sights. If you look behind you, you'll be able to see the land of Chroma, in all its beauty. However, the best sight is hidden away in the valley at the centre of the mountains. A luxurious green forest evolves, seemingly untouched by any kind of civilization. Now very much is known about that forest, so it's yours to discover!

Red Panda Population Report

With the summer months coming up, Red Pandas will be an increasingly common sight in Raiders. These little creatures live in alpine regions with large areas of bamboo plants, and Raider's happens to have both of these. This photograph was taken by one of our men, showing a panda frolicking amongst some winter bamboo plants, which are surprisingly common, especially in the southern forests. Similarly, these little fellows are on a tree trunk, with a bamboo bush behind.

There are estimated to be over one million red pandas in Raider's Pinnacle this spring, and despite their red colour, they seem to prefer the company of Periwinkles.

Home - Part 3

Part 2

Weebs turned the key in the lock, and opened the door to the Coffeeshop. It was a full crowd tonight, and the chorus of voices and laughter welcomed her ears. "Heya Weebs!" a familiar voice shouted over the din. It was Gaga. Weebs smiled and hugged her old comrade. "What's shakin', Gaga?" she asked. He replied, "Everything, now." Weebs felt a rumbling.

She regained consciousness on the raft as the motor sputtered and locked up – finally out of fuel. It was dusk. She lifted her head, woozy - but alive. Oh, yeah, she thought as she remembered where she was and the last bits of her reverie faded from her mind. All she could see was water in all directions. Just open sea. A rough, open sea. She must have cleared the landlocked waterway bordered by the capital, Aegis, and Tento and drifted all the way out into the vast ocean lying north of Chroma. Based on what little she knew about the currents, she figured she was probably north of Raider's Pinnacle. A bought of nausea passed over her, and she hung her head over the side of the raft and vomited. Her headache returned.

The raft wasn't as seaworthy as she had hoped. The waves repeatedly threatened to swamp it. She panicked, briefly, and began trying to scoop the water out with her hands. But Weebs wasn't afraid to die. She was afraid of the emptiness she felt inside. She realized she could no longer feel anything at all. And that's what scared her. She hadn't felt like herself since the first battle for Londo. She felt like she was outside of her body, watching it move around like some grotesque nightmare. Like her body was just this thing she was attached to. Everything felt like a bad dream. She was delirious. Images filled her eyes. Visions of friends dying. Visions of her homeland being plundered. Visions of sitting in the Coffeeshop with her friends sharing tales and laughter... She slumped down.

Suddenly, she felt the sea level dip. It felt almost as if someone was draining the tub. She sat up again. The raft scraped the bottom. Did I hit an island? A sand bar? She looked around, still nothing but ocean for miles and miles...but to the north, a rising wall of water. Tsunami. A cold wave of realization washed over her. She thought about her friends, whom she abandoned on her crazy death-wish mission to cross enemy lines, return home, and commit suicide. She felt selfish. She was selfish. And weak. A traitor to her friends for abandoning them in these dark times. She once was an honorable woman, a respected leader. Now, she was just a coward. Running from her own demons and abandoning those she loved. She would die out here at sea, alone, and in pain. No one would probably even find the body. She would just... disappear. Regret filled her soul.

The wall of sea was coming closer. For the first time in what seemed like ages, Weeble wept. A soul-wrenching wail escaped her mouth. Bitter tears streamed down her cheeks. Her whole body shook with sobs of remorse for what she had just done. It was too late to turn back now. She had made an irreparable mistake. She prayed to the gods she didn't even believe in for a miracle.

When the wave finally hit, it obliterated the raft...

Raider's Pinnacle History

Hello fellow raiders,

 

To help ensure the proper passing down of the raider's pinnacle history to future history, I have taken about myself, as part of my office of governor, to compile and edit the true history and lore our home, Raider's Pinnacle. I would also like to create and publish a proper map of our lands.

Help me, my brethren, in this task for the betterment of our homeland.

 

 

All the best,

 

xav0989,
Raider's Pinnacle Governor.

Yetis in the Raider's Pinnacle - Alive and well

I'm not one to toss around "power" and make threats, but the Yeti here are under my protection, and are secure in their right to live here.

Any and all talk of killing Yeti, or causing them harm, will result in a removal from this sub.

As an endangered species, I'm enacting measures to ensure their survival. Respect this law, or find your mentions otherwise deleted, and yourself removed.

All discussions on Yeti are formally closed. The Yeti remain. That is all.

Yeti-Human Treaty

Welcome to Raiders Pinnacle, traveler. I am King Yeti...the only living yeti on this lonely peak. All my friends and relatives have died or escaped to unknown lands. I am the sole yeti left, and I know that once the war starts here, the winning side will have me eliminated and exiled from my own home. I would like to therefore make a treaty, which you can access and discuss right over here. Thank you.

I'm just here to take some measurements.

An ice statue of our warriors will go nicely here. And maybe a ski lodge for our vacationing Winkles right next to it?

Raiders Pinnacle

Welcome to the harsh, abandoned territory known as Raiders Pinnacle.

The cold environment used to be home to yetis yet now may be inhabited by the last remaining Snooland Freedom Fighters. This frozen wasteland where ice is king, will determine a who owns the north. Will it be the merciless Periwinkles? Or will it be dominated by the powerful Orangereds? Only time will tell.

The battle will be one for the history books. It will take place in the near future so check up often for updates. Be sure to tell your friends and grab your weapons (And hide yo kids and hide yo wives) because this will be a chilling battle.

See you on the battle grounds!
