Culture Name: Transorcvania
Banner Colour: Green despite Aculadray insisting it is black and red.
Government and Leader: High King Warlord Aculadray, our favorite pseudo-vampiric asshole! He "lawfully" achieved rulership these past couple of centuries by the "persuasions of the innermost mind" (i.e. wightish hypnotism). There is some sort of neo-monarchy thing going on with the government, where Aculadray is the rule-for-life (or dare I say, RULER OF THE NIGHT???). Democractic vote still exists but it tends to be for governmental roles that Aculadray finds personally unpleasant to deal with, such as water utilities, taxes, and what not.
Society: Ever since Aculadray converted a not-so-petty span of land into his metaphorical Personal Minecraft/RP Forum, he decided to cherrypick the best parts of the Orcgarchy for his own needs. Good hair can stay. The Listeners can not. He tried banning voting but partially relented after a bunch of stake-wielding football hooligans clustered up at his official residence. He is still absolute ruler though.
Species: Ghouls! Self-explanatory!
Orcs! Self-explanatory! Also from Windrose! They absolutely don't like Aculardray's social reorganization!
Wights! Pretty people with scary magic!
Half-men! Eldritch ghosty lads!
Horrible animal men! Recent arrivals -- they like to don on canine-themed attire. You can call them "wear-wolves."
Stances on the three changes:
Sky: Approved. It is nice when more space to conquer is literal space!
Love: Disapproved. Who cares about marriage! WHY AREN'T THEY PAYING ATTENTION TO MMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEE.
Bottomless: Approved. They're mostly ghouls! Of course, they love dirt!
Major cultural influence: Windrose! Wights!
