Game news:Equality

Gender roles and ‘places’ are not really a factor in Atharia. Sure, some kingdoms might have a patriarchy or a matriarchy, but it is not because another gender is ‘lesser’ but because that is what tradition and the ruler dictates. To treat a gender as a lesser than is considered a crime in Atharia and an appropriate punishment will be handed out to the ones who do it.

Nobles are considered more ‘important’ than commoners but that is only because at some point the family the noble came from was appointed or earned their position as nobility. Commoners might be a ‘lower class,’ but this does not necessarily mean working as nobles can do any job commoners can. What this means is that commoners handle tasks and duties that allow nobility to handle the bigger scale matters such as alliances across kingdoms or planning wars. Commoners can do those too but it, typically falls onto nobles to take a hefty load of the workings of the world and commoners help to ease those loads.

Nobles, royals, and commoners can absolutely have classist moments, but it is not the norm but the exception. Everyone has their own viewpoints and some of those just might be that commoners think nobles are ‘elitest jerks’ or that nobles think commoners ‘there to serve them.’ Other viewpoints can be that both consider themselves equal. Regardless, all people are address appropriately for their position in life (see forms of address). Kingdoms can absolutely be bias against each other. Luminat and Santua are basically opposites of each other so it would not be unheard of them to think they are superior to each other or something.

As stated previously everyone has their viewpoints but it not necessarily anything to do with being a ‘lesser human being’ or something, as in general all genders and people can be loosely considered equal.
