Long ago… In the lands of Yamato, The humans over there first start off primitive, over the thousands years, they developed a sophisticated culture and grow into a large population. This population divides themselves up to three large groups. This is when the three groups create the first clans of Yamato. The Doragonhatto or Dragonheart Clan are the aggressive warriors with blade and shot. Lead by their Shogun, Raiden; His warriors are highly trained and fierce. The Kuruwaindo (Crane wind) Clan are masters of both cavalry and archery. They are also trained in the arts of magic. Their Shogun, Soran is wise and reasonable. His people are swift and cunning. My Clan, The Amatera (Sunstag) are the smallest, but peaceful in the world of Yamato. but we are always prepared for battle and war. Sadly War exists on our lovely continent of Yamato. I, Hinata, the shogun of the Amatera search for an answer to end this aspect of our life. It took years of diplomacy to create peace between my clan and two other clans. But the Dragonheart and Cranewind clans declines and goes back to their war. Now I am forced to choose to fight with Doragonhatto or aid the Kuruwaindo. While,  I pray for the safety of my people. I met a cloaked man, who knows how to save my people from this war. He took me through the forest and there I saw a portal. He speaks with me about leaving my old home and create a new home on this strange alien world which he called Wanderstar. I didn’t know if I want to trust him, but I decides to take a risk on him. I evacuate my people and send them into the portal and see the new world for themselves. I was the last one to come through the portal. The cloaked man then seal the portal closed. He reveals himself as Heldim, an angel from another world. Together, we rebuild, and familiarize ourselves in this strange, but wonderful land for two decades. We were introduced to the Feowyn, and immediate started negotiations of trade and peace. I’m thankful to Heldim and his aid to help my people to avoid the bloodshed back in Yamato. Me and my people can finally live in harmony.

=Introduction=

Yamato is a realm of Great heroes with katanas, gunpowder, Wushu, Gods, ancestors, and Kami. It's a land of eternal beauty, but also total war and conquest. Three Major clans (Amatera, Clan of the Stag, Doragonhatto, Empire of the Dragon, and Kuruwaindo, Nomads of the Crane) were created in this realm. There are also many subclans and families that swear fealty to these three major clans.

It contains:
 * A realm inspired by Far Eastern Cultures (Mainly Japanese)
 * Human Samurai that upholds the code of Bushido
 * Insect Samurai and spirits that protects the Religious parts of Yamato
 * Master smiths that can create equipment to strengthen their people

From a lore perspective, Units and Actions from Yamato should be based on Far East Cultures. The main points of this realm is for a oriental or asian world to exist in this game and to have protagonists to be reliable and to cheer for! Form a design perspective, They should focused on Dueling, Blocking Benefits, and Equipment buffs and benefits. From a art perspective, Characters and Actions should be inspired and based mostly on Anime and Manga. Yamato Humans needs to have big eyes and small noses. Insect Samurai have more freedom on their appearances.

=Amatera Clan= The Amatera clan were the first to enter the world of Wanderstar, seeking to escape the never-ending war. They begins creating the first towns and their capital known as Marusun, after Hinata's Father. This is where the Samurai begins their journey. Amatera Clan are based on Japanese culture and fight like typical samurai and ashigaru, relying on their melee weapons and smithing techniques to win battles. The Yoricho Samurai also enters the world, A minority of Insect Samurai that join the three major clans in their conflicts, but Most join the Amatera due to their kindness and tolerance of them. Spirits and Kami of the Gods also join to protect Wanderstar from Conquerers. The Amatera are powerful warriors and great duelists that live on islands in the far east. Their previous Shogun Marusan was highly bloodthirsty and wished to expand the domain of the Amatera to the other islands. He and his Daimyos caused the Disastrous Stagblood Civil war in the islands of Amatera and damaged the land for a long time. After the Stagblood Civil War ended, Marusan built a city named after himself and wanted his country to craft powerful weapons and build great siegeworks. But he passed away before he could increase his power over Cathpon. The next Shogun Hinata did not want to repeat the violence of Stagblood Civil War and decided to seal away her father’s arsenal of weapons and siegeworks and wanted to build a peaceful nation for the future of her clan. Gold, yellow, and red are the colors of the Amatera.

They have built repeating crossbows, wondrous fireworks and rockets, and devastating cannons. But they are also known for their trickery and betrayal. They are led by Emperor Raiden.
