Description[]
The Avataryans hail from the Empire of Sanskritistan, located in the eastern continent of Orientashia on Animatopia. They are a race of colorfully and ethnically distinct beings, modeled after Hindu and Buddhist devas, and governed by an absolute monarchy under the Chhatrapati and Peshwa with the advisory of the Dharmic Sabha. Deeply devoted to Dharmic faiths, they integrate religious beliefs, divine blessings, and magic into their way of life, particularly in warfare.
