Mystic Fantasia: War of the Genjuu

I finally have the time and resources to work on a project, so here I go.

Story:
2000 years ago, poor, lowly and pathetic foragers wondered the world, banished from their tribe for cowardice. It they treaded the four corners of the world, seeking wealth and power, until they discovered a crystal, a gift from the heavens. It was here that the Genjuu were born, and the foragers recieved power and wealth beyond their wildest dreams. Immensely powerful, the Genjuu used their power to subjugate and enslave many of the human tribes of the world. For 2000 years, all that was known to man was turmoil, pain, bloodshed and suffering. Hope was a foreign concept, and fortune was long lost.

Now, the remaining human tribes and nations of the world have united to fight together against the hated Genjuu and liberate the Human race once and for all. Years of research and development have led to new weapons to fight the Genjuu, including artificial Magic, and the Einheriar, mystically created warriors loyal to humans. This great battle for freedom will be known as the War of the Genjuu.

Because Zulfiqar, at one point, has been grafted with the soul of a dead Genjuu, he is capable of using true magic.

Factions
The kingdom of Manonia: The kingdom of Manonia is the only human country powerful enough to oppose the Genjuu. With its use of advance technology and its vast army, they are a force to be reckoned with.

The Genjuu kingdom of Avalon: The Genjuu rule the world high in the heavens on a floating continent known as Avalon. Their ruler is Odin. With near cosmic powers, the Genjuu have succeeded in reducing the humans to little more than slaves. As far as the Genjuu are concerned, Humans are greedy, stupid, horrible creatures who should either exist to serve them or be exterminated.

The tribes of Gloom: The tribes of Gloom are a group of humans who are loyal to the Genjuu, even to the point of worshipping them as gods. They proudly and gladly lay their lives down for the Genjuu.


I'll post screens and art and all that stuff later.

Worlds:

I guess it wasn't, sorry, Junk - Man. As for the story, it's a tad cliche, and doesn't tell much about the WHY? Which would give the story some depth.
