Iron Age Empires

This document is part of the Regnum Universale open universe. It was created to provide suggestions, inspiration and templates for Iron and Bronze Age cultures and empires. All you have to do is add your own characters, details and adventures to these descriptions, and you'll breathe new life into your fiction projects.

Character concepts were produced by multiple AI engines. All images were created by humans and acquired through Pexels. Here's what's included:

* Suggestions on how an Iron Age culture could respond to a great catastrophe, be it a great flood or fire, etc. What do they need to rebuild right away, and for their long-term survival?

* 3 sets of personal names suggested by AI, for characters of different races, including Caucasian, Asian and Tanned / Dark-Skinned people. Also included are actual Scandinavian names, which supposedly were used during the Iron Age. Some of the generated names are iffy for the Iron Age. You can modify them or find others.

* Hair and eye color tables for the following racial types: Caucasian, Arabian, Asian, African, Indian, and Native American. I tried to create fictional races (Atlantis, Mu, Lemuria, etc.), but that didn't work out so well. I included results for 1 fictional Caucasian race, which came out iffy.

* 2 sets of Iron Age Empires / Cultures, with 10 results per set, giving you 20 possible templates to use. Each result has a location, class structure, and info on clothing, culture, tech, trade and war. These are good, loose settings that you can adapt any way you want.

* 2 examples of Bronze Age cultures. One is based on ancient Egypt, the other on Mesopotamia. Each includes a general description of the people and their culture. Each culture also includes a secret society with suggestions for power structure, as in who runs it behind the scenes, and 6 or 7 character classes to do their dirty work. With these descriptions, you can create a clandestine group such as the Sons of the Harpy from Game of Thrones, or in my case, a villain cult for sword and sorcery-type adventures.

* Lots of pics of women in cultural or tribal dress! I had more room to add more pics. For pics of men, see my other doc Fantasy Heroes And Villains.
