257 was almost left barren from the war. A singular plot of tree's and water became the center of the lands society and heavily protected. A single man stepped up as it's only Qi user during the war. He was an ex military veteran of the war in the middle east who had awakened his Qi during a depressive cycle of self harm and suicidal tendencies. His name was Adder Berus. He taught those who could learn military tactics, discipline, and combat. During the war for power many had awakened among their small number to Qi. These people were taught how to use it to protect others and join their small militia as elite members.
Asiv's own soldiers made contact quickly when the Gods were a threat in California. Adder was hesitant, but he knew they would not survive alone against enemies in all directions. Adder's home was named Scales as a code name initially, using it as a secret training base for Asiv's Guardians and Militia forces. It proved very useful and kept rather secret during the conflicts with the experiments, Midgard, and Prota.
Now with the war ended "Scales" has been given official and protected land, adding it's name to the accords under Cabal. Adder elected as it's representative in an easily land slide victory as most people looked up to him and relied on him for their protection and trusted him completely. He keeps a counsel of trustee's to help him decide and delegate duties or laws, as well as relations. They are not heavy into trade, or really have any resource to sell in the first place, so it is difficult to get a lot of things. Considering most of the land has only just begun to heal and show signs of life beyond the woods and lake.
Since the water they live next to is fresh and untainted Scales being a military base is well established, the fort its self constructed on and over the lake keeping security on it very high. Because of this they are commonly attacked or assailed by attempted theft by bandits, raiders, or any group that thinks they can take rather than trade. So while Scales does not have issue with any one territory they have issue with almost every vagabond group out there.
They routinely send citizens to Cabal Academy for initial training, and many top of the class graduates get assigned duty to protect the water in Scales. They also have their own Advanced Academy which is another reason graduates who show promise get sent there, the specialized training at this academy is prestige a kin to being a Dragon Apprentice when it comes to fame. Difficulty is another step as Adder and his elite trained originals teach there. Most who go to this Academy return to Cabal as Black Ops or Spec Ops soldiers capable of working effectively in two man teams or splinter cell groups. Rumor has it a Black Ops team once even made it all the way to the throne room of Emperor John Strike on a joint training exercise.
For some reason most people who live in or are citizens of Scales have serpent like Qi abilities.
