Vraknian Fangs
Vampiric Nordic warriors who utilize dark sorcery to forge metal ships with sails made of human skin and propeller engines fueled by blood magic, known as "Blood Engines". Their numbers can only be speculated upon however all anyone knows is they are brutally efficient in melee and naval combat and their numbers seem endless. They regularly kidnap people and consume the flesh of everyone else in their path. The land they inhabit is inhospitable and little is known about their fortresses except their basic locations. Nobody has ever set off to conquer this land and came back to tell the tale. The rocks, cliffs and high tides around the isles make invasion a near impossibility. This land and it's seas can only be conquered and navigated by the brutal Nordic Vampires.
Underneath the desolate wastes of the northern isle are a seemingly endless network of artificial tunnels and caverns carving out the space needed for a whole civilization to exist. The fangs inhabit these tunnels, using their enslaved Cursed Dwarves to continue expanding their underground network. For every Vraknian Fang there are 3 slaves concerning the sheer number of people they've kidnapped and bread in captivity like cattle. For cattle is what the slaves are, they are used for work but also for food, most importantly the slaves are used for breeding. Slaves are turned and forced to reproduce with pure blooded vampires to create more pure bloods and continue familial lines. The babies are taken from their parents and raised the Vraknian, the twisted norse ways. From an early age they are taught to fight like animals and behave so as well. The turned "new blood" parents are starved of blood and are tortured into insanity. They are then used as shock troops on frontline warfare, mainly fighting the Werewolf resistance force. For Vraknian society is not a calm one. Let it not be mistaken, these beasts are vicious predators but with a pack containing seemingly millions. To be raided by a Vraknian dispatch fleet is to know only true horror. These vampires strike fast and ruthlessly. Some running on all fours, contorted like animals. During a raid, it doesn't take long before every person in an average village is either dead or stripped naked with nothing but a rusty, bloodstained metal collar with a chain holding all the captives together. Only for those captives to be shipped off on the giant metal longboats to the Ragnahel Isles, where a life of bondage and torment awaits, not only for them however, but for generations to come. The fangs are as brutally efficient in governing as they are in combat, to outsiders it would seem like there is no real order, save for the power the king holds. Yet in the madness there is order and ancient understood tradition that has kept these brutal people alive for a time that predates history.
