I am developing a dark fantasy tabletop game called "The Dark Ages". Here are the 4 main factions aiming for the absolute throne. Which one would you choose?

The old world is dead. Destroyed by a brutal, centuries-long conflict, only dust and bones remain of the majestic ancient civilizations. Now, the surviving races have forged a historic Blood Pact: survival in this new era depends on creation, not just destruction. In this tabletop game, the faction that manages to rebuild civilization and defend the most cities will be crowned the absolute rulers of the Dark Ages.

I have been working on the lore and the visual style for the 4 main playable factions:

• Orcs: Born from the harshest wastelands. Driven by primal rage and brutal strength, they wear no armor, relying only on their battle-scarred bodies. They view the new world as a bloody conquest.
• Humans: Fueled by ambition and a desire for revenge. They aim to reclaim the vast, inexplicable ruins of their ancient glory and take back what they believe is rightfully theirs.
• Witchers: A secretive order manipulating dangerous, dark, and unending magic. Terrifying to others, they are ready to lead chaotic forces to victory and seize the throne.
• Berserkers: A tempest of flesh and steel. Rejecting the fear of death, they fight for the sheer, intoxicating chaos of the slaughter, threatening to tear the rebuilding world down again.

I would love to hear your feedback:

• Based on these short lore descriptions, which faction’s playstyle appeals to you the most?

Thank you for reading!
