Shooshima's contest entry: Asgardia by Admira
Perlude
OK, Here is my entry. It is very difficult to connect the world of Ashan to known Mythological creatures. As many will predict that some people prefer known Mythological creatures while others favored new freshly creatures.
PS: All pictures used are only the references, things that close to the respected creature in term of outer appearance. Some comes from other games but please don't bother with that.
Asgardia
"Strike like Thunder, Fast like Wind"
When the Human turned their back off their creator Ylath towards the church of Light, most of the Human that reject the church of light found the free cities on the eastern continent. Yes, it was a neutral trading city. Nomads and Traders. However, few knew of the existence of more politically powerful society under the "Blessing" of Ylath. Their existence considered a myth by many scholar. There were many versions of how they reformed as one politically powerful nation, but most agreed that instead of becoming traders and nomad clans some lords moved to harsh northern continent of Orthox. One of Solmyr's journal on his expedition to Orthox told the lore of these people.
*Strength: Powerful Flyer, High Magic-Type Damage and Defense
*Weakness: Limited range offense, Low Might-Type Damage

like it, but only has a few nitpicks:
1. spears seem more usefull against cavalery than flyers. to hard to really aim with fast enough to take oncomming arial aussults.
2. Fenris Wolf works better as elite due to two things: in his myth he is HUGE! i mean f'n HUGE! and during Ragnarök he is destined to go in deadly combat with Odin, the king of the gods, and WIN!
3. Don't get what the Yeti has to do with norse. nice to see the behemoth though 
4. where did you get the Fenris pic?
interesting racial. don't understand it completely, but damn! that seems awesome! although not sure about 75% damage...

1. Yup, I am aware of that. However we are talking about Ylath the Air Elemental, Ylath's people are proficient with flyer, they have the most powerful flyer and proficient to handle them especially opponent's flyer.
2. Yeah Fenrir, I know about the myth already. However it is very difficult for me to downgrade any of the current Elite and honestly I am not even sure about including him in the line-up, but currently there is no replacement comes to mind.
3.  just some refreshment rather than Behemoth and Ancient Behemoth
4.  coincidence?
Racial skill issue: well, basically all Asgardia unit can attack with less damage (lower 25% damage) but in return they got the unique charge that increase their resistance to magic and spell damage. More efficient for Champion or Tanking Elite (Dullahan) with 3 Charge max equal to 30% Spell and Magic resistance. Some of the creatures can use this charge to activate their unique ability, so far, I am comfortable with this twist and it sounds fun on paper.
The Racial Skill's bar filled as more creature use the Lightning Charge attack and Heroes can release one of the 3 Shields.
Thanks for your comment

Can't help you there. and if you ask me, it is one of 2 things that actually ties it with norse myth... how 'bout some Raven or something? was in my original lineup, and they fly and has "Norse" written all over them!
