After much thought, a new, neutral nation has been planned for the modification. With this new nation comes 2 new characters (male and female varieties), a new map, and more backstory to the world of Evolution.
The new nation's name is Oceana, and here's the details.
Oceana is an ocean faring nation, based on islands and off-shore "settlements," ocean based cities from before World War III which were taken by rogues who have embraced the pirate heritage. Over the years, more and more cities were taken and put under the control of these so called pirates, and eventually became a haven for the less desirable citizens of the world. When the United Alliance and the Anarchist Revolution declared that wars would be faught in the arenas to determine the outcome of control for the "free" nations of the world, the Oceanic Pirates decided to become a thorn in the sides of both the Alliance and the Revolution. Unknown to everyone, however, their motives for joining in the battles in the arena were more than what it seemed at first, for while the EvEnt Pirates battled it out, the Norm pirates were busy taking advantage of the distraction, continuing their streak of robbery and other criminal activities, all under the noses of both sides.
Tech Level: (Medium Tech) The Oceanic pirates embrased the weaponry and technology that they have plundered over the years. They are fairly well equipped, but most of the technology that they have aquired has slowly run into disrepair. Without the knowledge to upkeep their older treasures, they are continuously raiding cities around the world to keep replenishing their supplies.
Belief System: Oceana, run by rogues and bandits, has embraced a code of ethics based around that of old-time pirates. They are fairly loyal to one another, and will watch out for one another, but will not hesitate to cheat over a "land lubber" if they haven't given their word of honor.
Military: Non-existant. The pirates are their own fighting force. Both men and women will help defend their fellow countrymen, and are raised from birth with such priniciples.
Characters: Men and women dressed in old-style pirate uniforms. These characters are selectable no matter which side you choose to fight on.
Fighting Grounds: A pair of volcanic islands has been sanctioned off for use in the EvEnt battles. Both islands are very close to one another with a large sand bar connecting the two. The volcanos are slightly active still, with hot lava on on the lower sections, but caves and caverns throughout the upper areas, and even some connecting the two islands underground. Sparse tropical trees and sand dot the outter edges of the islands, making for a rather open playing field. Off to the side of the islands is a lone pirate ship, watching over the battlefield.
That's it for now. Expect another media update soon.
