Heroes VI - The way I dream it...

Okay..this is my first thread so be gentle while commenting it.
It is about how I would imagine H6. Feel free to use the ideas for mods, but notify me first...

STORY

After Biara's defeat, Freyda decided it was too soon for a change in the Griffin Empire, so she left it that way. And so did many generations after her, so it is still named the Griffin Empire.
The Demon Messiah had no time to think whether he should free his father or not, because at that moment Asha descended from the Moon and destroyed the Skull of Shadows, so that the demons were still imprisoned in Sheogh, but made occasionally some apparitions...
...100 Years later...Peace in Ashan is in peril, as all of the old allied kingdoms fight against each other. It is to late for anything. The Gods, Asha, Syllana, Silath, Elrath, Arkath, Shalassa and Malassa have decided to interfere. They created a being that is capable of ruling the entire Ashan: Anna Minerva is the ultimate god-hero which can restore peace to Ashan. Through her veins flow all of the 6 types of blood: human, elf, mage, necromancer, dark-elf and dwarvish. She has been given the power to create, change and destroy with whatever she thinks right to do so. The main danger for peace are the orcs which want to rule Ashan and all of the other races, as demons have given up.
To be able to restore each race, Anna has created a large island in the middle of the Irisus Sea, on the place where Tieru died, called the Valley of Avalar. There she has created 6 towns, each specialized on one specific elemental. She has taken one of each race creatures, chosen one out of each tier, so having 7 creatures altogether which she has converted to the specific elemental. Also she brought back the spirits of Ylaya, Agrael and Isabel, creating appropriate bodies for them. Afterward, she created 3 more heroes, for each town, of course. For Light, Isabella was the ruler. Darkness was mastered by Ylaya, Water by a hero named Nut, Fire by one named Ramon Agrael, Earth was the spirit of Gilraen revived and given a body, and Air was give to the heroine named Ivoire. Above these 6 towns and heroes reigned only Anna, with her indestructible Diamond creatures. Because orc numbers have grown substantially, after reuniting the 6 initial races (mages, humans, dark elves, necromancers, elves, dwarves), Anna makes one last voyage, to seek support in battle from the one she would least want it. She travels far into Sheogh, into the depths of Ur-Hekal, searching for Urgashs' aid. He repents for everything he has done but thinks it is too late for anything. But Anna was a very powerful witch and so she is able to purge him of all demonic magic through the Rite of True Nature, making him the Second Dragon of Order, Asha being the First. And so, all the demons disappear forever, leaving behind a huge elven, human, wizarding, undead, dark-elvish and whatever was the true nature of each and every one of the demons that lived in Sheogh. And, together with the 8 gods finally reunited, Anna and her armies rush into battle, crushing the orc rows and destroying them all. Finally peace was restored to Ashan, and Anna was converted to a god, watching over Ashan together with Asha and Urgash from within the Moon...No one would ever derange this peace ever again.

Hypothetically speaking, all of the factions are good because all of them fight for peace in Ashan. These factions have absolutely no influence in the Peaceful Ashan.
On the other hand, if you look carefully at the faction's creatures you will notice that i tried to combine creatures from all of the H5 faction (except necropolis and demons because they wouldn't look good next to the others).

Very creative. I'll just say some nature/elven/elegant creatures are nice, but having all of them be that way I think would be a really bad idea in my opinion. I think you need more "earthy" and "ugly" creatures like harpies, minotaurs, and medusa.

I think another problem is I don't see what "goal" there is for these factions. If their "goal" is peace, do they achieve it through fighting with each other?

The factions don't seem to be united in anything other than what element they are. And why would the Pearl unicorn choose to live with the Platinum Hydra as opposed to the Wind Unicorn? Doesn't make alot of sense to me.

I can see maybe a split between Gold Dragons and Black Dragons but to have 7 of the same types of creatures be directly opposed to it's own kind and allied with completely different creatures just would make the game repetitive.

Part of the fun of the game is unique creatures. The fact that all level 6 creatures AREN'T hydras is part of the draw.

I think your idea is good, but if anything you've boxed yourself in.

The creatures and factions don't fight against each other. They live in the same place. They fight together against the orcs and for the reestablishment of peace in Ashan. The races created by the elemental dragons fight against each other.
And I've decided not to put all of the "Diamond" creatures to bear the same name (Diamond Fairy, Diamond Archer etc) so I've tried to leave diamond only for one of them and replace the others with something similar (same color and value-in our world).

I'm still confused.
So are these all the "good" creatures and the orcs are the "bad" creatures?

Do the Orcs have different races/tiers? I hope alot to be able to withstand 6 allied towns.

What the Goddess wants to do is to create like this peaceful utopia where order and nature rules supreme, right?

But something called a "chaos hydra" would be by its very nature completely opposed to this.

A "corrupted archer" sounds like he would be more comfortable passing out in a tavern, than promoting world peace, and a "fallen fairy", again not trying to criticize but if something is fallen it's not likely to be good.

Hypothetically speaking of the utopia, yes. No one said that the darkness creatures would agree with this, but seriously, 6 races totally outnumber one. And on the other hand, Malassa, the Elemental Dragon of Darkness lived in peace with the other gods. So why couldn't it's natural worshipers do so too? I realize I haven't explicitly said all of these but, if after this comment there are anymore flaws, leave a reply again so I would illuminate your misunderstandings.
