Humeda Rapidos

Humeda Rapidos is a lakeside town in central Sunjann. It is led by the legendary warlord Crixus Gatorbane, famous for fighting off massive alligators and crocodiles. The town is very humid, as it is located on the bank of the rocky Rocoso lake and river. The town specializes in the natural resources from a coal mine, and what the swamp provides, namely peat and fresh water. The Mossy Swamp is a dangerous place though, which has hardened the warriors of the town. The town holds a fighting pit meant for slaves and gladiators alike for entertainment and gambling.

The origins of the town are unknown, since civilization has existed in Sunjann for as far back as the history books are dated. The town has gone through multiple regimes and leaders, with differing ways of ruling, but it has always been an essential central town in the country, with important and exclusive natural materials, and renown fighting pits. Before the rule of Crixus Gatorbane, the town was under the rulership of another warrior family. When he was young, Crixus, a former slave, rose up in the fighting pits and conquered the town in a single night fighting under his father Batiatus and other slaves who were his trusted brothers in arms from the fighting pits.

After establishing control of Humeda Rapidos, Batiatus agreed to join the democratic council of Sunjann, to avoid being at odds against every other town in the country. Batiatus quickly developed a hostile relationship with the Horuin's of Tenayuca, and thus became very hostile with them, much to the dismay of the rest of the leaders of the country. Batiatus and the Horuins became very aggressive, raiding and pillaging each other, and developing a very hateful relationship.

During the time of Batiatus' rule, Crixus achieved many great feats and became a great fighter, raping and pillaging smaller villages near Humeda Rapidos, and eventually forcing them into submission.

After Batiatus passed, leadership passed on to Crixus, and he decided to give his family a family name, like the great lords of other lands tend to do, establishing the Gatorbane house. At some point during Crixus' early rule, he assaulted a convoy of the Horuin family, killed a lot of their guards, and kidnapped a prized slave of the Horuins. This slave, called Naevia, who Crixus took a liking to, eventually became his wife.

In 3134, Crixus Gatorbane led an assault on Tenayuca, aiming to kill Sanjho Horuin and take control of the town. With a large force, he invaded and killed Sanjho, but was ultimately killed himself as well. Following this, there was a power struggle in Humeda Rapidos, but Crixus' younger brother Doiros took control.
