#DOW3Dtalks

[hoodienot]

yA ASKED FOR IT, here’s the basic, sorry mobile user

FIRSTLY THIS IS GONNA BE WRITTEN POORLY YAY AND I’M NOT GONNA FIX IT BECAUSE IM TIRED

Okay so the actual name of the story is Dogs of War: the 3 Domains or short to DOW3D just to clear that shit up because its not just call “dog story lol”

There’s actually a reason they are all dogs instead of like people or something. The species they are is known as Gnolls (pronounce ‘noles’) even though they are technically hyneas in the DnD canon, Gnolls are sometimes depicted as simple “canine” like beast people. Hence dogs (please I made this story during my “sparkledog” phaze on DA sooo yea aint that tragic)

There’s 3 Domains (aka worlds/universe/kingdoms) known as Earth, Heaven and Hell and they are at war with each other, hence the title of the story

Earth is the largest domain that’s inhabited by the Fae (Fairy) Gnolls, they have the ability to control elements (think like avatar the last airbender kind of stuff) and also have “bug like” features, usually its wings, antenna and insect like tails. They tends to be very colorful (there color usually matching their emotion to some degree). 

The Fae live in a medieval like world where its not super technological or scientifically inclined, they rely more on the earth itself and are very respectful of animals, plants and even the grounds/crust of the planet. They worship a goddess simply known as “Mother” who represents the Earth itself and is consider “Mother Nature”.

Heaven is a smaller domain ruled by the Angel Gnolls. They have the ability to control countless energies and sometimes even time and space itself (think like lasers and psychics). They have bird like features usually being the wings and a feathered tail, they also have metallic rings that for on their body and hover just above their head (a halo of course)

The Angels as a very advance sci-fi like society, almost fully automated, they citizen are however very rule-obsessed, and watch as much boundaries as possible to protect them from corruption or violent arising (within their own people).

Hell is a medium sized domain fulled with the Demon Gnolls. They have the ability to control unnatural forces and the minds of others. (just think demons and yea there ya go). They tend to have lizard / dragon like features sporting wings, a long scaly tail and horns.

The Demons don’t really have a society, they are an almost pure anarchy where you take what you and whoever has the most rules everything, outside of that the people basically live like they are in the apocalypse or the wild west, no rules, no consequences, only violence. They do have a “Queen” but that’s just because she’s taken the most shit and has killed anyone who dares challenge her, everyone serves her out of fear.

The whole war thing with the domains started because originally the Gnolls were one race but due to an argument between 2 siblings, their people became divide. One sister (current queen of hell) wanted to do whatever she wanted, One brother (current king of heaven) wanted to keep in line. Some sided with the Queen, others with the King and others didn’t side with either. Each group went their separate ways and grew into the 3 new races but the Queen and King didn’t forget their argument leaving everyone really on edge. No one EXACTLY KNOWS who finally started it but once it started everyone was at each other throats. The war has been going on for almost 500 years.

Due to how much shit that’s happened, the population of the Gnolls is VERY VERY LOW, too many people are dying, either in battle or from being slaughtered during attack of innocence citizens. I don’t imagine there’s many people anymore like probably in the 25000 for each domain max?? 

RANDOM STUFF ABOUT CHARACTERS

Clayton is named after his town, “Claytown” it was a small town by a river hence the name and it was fucking wrecked by angels probably.

Iris’s parents (who are King and Queen of the Faes) are named Queen Aurora and King Solaris

Salem can’t fly so he often turns into mist to float around

Smoking is good for Salem, to him its like “getting a breath of fresh air” because demons live in hell which is full of smoke plus “corrupted” shit is good for demons

Celeste is kinda dumb, very naive and oblivious, doesn’t know what lying is and really doesn’t understand sarcasm, very shelter type

Iris can make a shield made of crystal, she uses it as her main weapon

[hoodienot]

Thinking a little on Clayton’s backstory, don’t know how “accurate” it would be but I just wanted to ramble

Clayton was born in a town called Clayton (I’ll get to that). This small village was on the far edge of the Earth Domain by a river (that was commonly full of clay, hence the name “Clay Town”). Being on the edge, it was attacked unexpected by unknown enemy (though people assume it was the angels based on how it was destroyed).

Clay was JUST a newborn and while his family was fleeing the attack, his parents perish living Clayton alone in the rumble.

He was found days later weak and dying due to be left in the elements and was taken in by the King and Queen since he was one of the only infants that survived. Though due to such an early time of his life being so harsh and the fact he never got a good “boost” to his immune system (never got proper breastmilk) he was sick very often leading him to him never developing properly.

His body couldn’t risk growing / enhancing the “unnecessary” parts of him leaving his wings too small (they are often enclosed in his shell), his stinger/insect tail never formed and he’s much shorter.

Does that seem to make sense??? I hope so ya’ll can slap me if it doesn’t :0

(btw Clayton was named after his town to honor it since again he was the only infant found and since he didn’t have a name that they knew off they thought it be “respectful” for him to carry on its legacy.)
