It is essentially the same premise as After the Fall, but in another setting. Some questions answered after the opening posts.
Yours is a proud nation. Your people hail from the northern forests - in these dark and forgotten places, you have made history, rising to prominence in the time of the Great Migration ages ago to dismantle the old Regian Empire and forge those of your own.
They were not to last. As feudal lords strengthened their grip, so did the kings loosen theirs. For centuries, you engaged in internecine wars amongst yourselves while the powers of Arqa and the Far East dominated the globe. It was not until the previous century, hundreds of years later, that your nation restored its unity as the new empire of Londo.
You tried to claim your place in the sun, obtaining colonies and engaging in conflicts around the world, but when it all culminated in the First Great War, you were defeated, your glorious empire dismantled in favour of a corrupt, defunct republic.
But this was not the end, not yet. An ambitious man, Herman Hertz, rose to power in the beginning of the 1930's to revive the nation. His National Socialist party brought restoration and order in a short time - at the cost of freedoms, some would say... The old faith, thrown away ages ago in favour of Sol, the Sun God, was revived, and many soon became adherents of Rezel, the old gods.
The failures of your previous leaders were blamed on the treacherous Magach - those greedy bankers and businessmen gathering all the wealth for their own perverse pleasure. Whether this was true or not, it was the enemy you needed to band back together.
Once again, your nation rose to prominence, and with the new Regians and Tremon on your side, tried to claim enough land for all your people to live safely and prosper.
But the Acorians, Albians and Ercolians once again claimed victory over you, now joined by the Morzet, those eastern barbarians with no true claim to their land.
It is 1945 now, and with Londo on the brink of defeat once again, you have been chosen by Herman Hertz, the Fuhrer himself, to lead one of the groups meant to hide in the remote reaches of the world, research new technologies - Wunderwaffen of power yet unseen - and strike once again when the time is right, claiming your place in the sun at last.
You have served your country well both in the time of the Empire and under the Fuhrer's command. However, you are getting old now, and even with your belief in the Cause, you know more than anyone when risks are to be taken and when they should be avoided.
Still, you will do your best in this final service to the nation of Lond.
