OWB – Vae Lupi, Vae Canes
Vae Lupi, Vae Canes is an narrative focused nation submod for the Sun Dogs
(MOST RECENT COMMISIONED ARTPIECE)
Years ago, Paullus drove his chariot north, swearing that the Sun Dogs would break beneath his wheels and that Colorado would kneel before the Legion. The Butcher came with the wrath of the Bull- but at the border he found Gold-Hound waiting. The Hound met the Bull in open ground, and what could be considered a miracle followed as Paullus’s advance was shattered, and his dreams were cast back to the dust of the south.
Time has passed.
Under Gold-Hound, the Sun Dogs have grown strong and prosperous- everyone wanted to be just like him: every warrior, mother, and even the children. Yet the Legion stirs again beneath Lanius, and the old threat rises with it. Gold-Hound’s passiveness has left room for fear and opposition, and from it steps Lupa, the Wolf-Queen, gathering strength with her cult to seize the Sun Dogs and march once more against the Legion.. even if it comes at a price.
A war is soon to come… and as they say…
War never changes
- Nearly 210 focuses for the Sun Dogs! (With more coming soon!)
- Continue Gold-Hound’s rule over the Sun Dogs and help forge a new Empire of Hounds that spans the wasteland! Sack cities, and carefully balance both Brutality and Benevolence.
- Usher in a new era for the Sun Dogs through Lupa Capitolina, bringing the Wolf Queen and her Cult to power over the wasteland. Expand the influence of her cult and bring true faith to the Moon Goddess with the Celestial Legion– or join forces with Diana to form a greater Nova Legion!
- Balance the influence of both Lupa and Gold-Hound during the early years, choosing which focuses to pursue while tracking progress on the preparations BOP.
- Face the Legion once more and bring down the Monster of the East through a dedicated war branch. Decide whether to push for offense or defense.
- Navigate decision systems for both Lupa and Gold-Hound– sack cities and expand control while growing your Benevolence and Brutality with the Golden Yoke, or convert the masses and obtain Devoted followers with the Living Faith.
- Engage with numerous characters and advisors from the Sun Dogs and other factions, each with their own backstories and lore, and follow questlines to unlock better traits. (Work in progress.)
- Discover the history of the Sun Dogs through the questboard- or take care of your own hound with a dedicated decision system- aww, who’s a good puppy?
