LIFE IS PRECIOUS, THERE WE MUST PRESERVE IT

Greetings and salutations, fellow Nevadians.

For you have committed a crime against your own, you have committed a crime against the rest of our world. One unforgivable crime was to almost wipe out all life that clung to our earthly bounds, nearly destroying it. You have tampered with life and that the elements that we knew to grew intimate with. And it nearly dissipated.

Such is the case presently. You continue to tamper with of which is not known to you. The very fabric should it be ripped, will its debris devour all of which we may never know again.

This is why we have allied together, not as leader and peasant, but as brother and sister. To prevent you from playing with such reality that you destroy all life that still remains, and for us to preserve that life and resuscitate it. For it to become flourishing again as it were then.

We demand that you rethink the way of errors and choose to support our cause. So your crimes can be forgiven and to atone for what you have done. Join us, hand in hand, and to create what was best for all of us. We will not discriminate and we will not lambast. All are welcome to the cause.

FOR THE FOREST, AND IT'S LIFE.

The Visus Silvus is an occultist, paganist-based military faction situated within the Nevada Forest. Formed sometime after the Improbability Device's activation, they are dedicated to resuscitating Nevada into the shape it was before the incident and to protect the Nevada Forest from any opponents. Especially the Nexus Core, who they deem their most heinous enemy. They are neutral to the other factions.

The most unique aspect of the Visus Silvus is their units. Especially in the "Race and Class" aspect. Each race (still wip) has unique classes adorned to their types, Assault or Support. For example. The "Shaman" class is exclusive to the Recadaver race under the Support type. Therefore, they're a Recadaver Support type. Plus, a specific sigil is adorned on their person to differentiate their class and type.

There's a ton of lore i'm currently drafting up for these guys. Like their leadership (i think for now they dont really have a leader, just guys who keep the other guys in check) their history, who or what they worship, how they do their rituals, how is their society, and so on and so forth.

But for now, I currently have three classes. Assault Private, Support Private, and Shaman. The other one, "Warlock" is still in development.

Seen here:

(from left to right and bottom right) ASSAULT PRIVATE, SUPPORT PRIVATE, AND SHAMAN

Other units I have in mind are the Warlock, Sniper, Scout, Commander, Vanguard, Doctor, and some others.

There is another race I have concepted here: The Cheshire Cats

But currently that's all I really have for them. But I promise that they'll have their own specific classes.

Like maybe they'll be as follows: Jester (think cloaker from pd2), Infiltrator, Sharpshooter, Akimbo. And so on.

They mainly have the ability to cloak and have higher movement speed. But that's currently it. They're best used for stealth or hit and run.

So yeah! In conclusion, the Visus Silvus is probably going to be my most arduous spriting and writing project. And i'm excited to see the reception of these dudes and what more I can make for the faction.

But for now, I officially welcome the Visus Silvus faction to the Madness Community. Many thanks my friends.
