This is the official catalog of information in the book Ruby Fire. It will be periodically updated with new information that the readers may like to know. It's like a Pokedex or something like that...
The largest and richest faction, with close to 80 members and housing the current Master of the Elements, Sakurai Akira. Not very orderly, but has unorthodox tactics that enemies would not expect. Male dominated. *More information enclosed later*
Training: 2 years
Tortoise Formation (Warriors)
Shields locked in front, shields held above heads in second and third ranks. Defensive.
Seven Star Formation
Extremely well known, almost unbreakable defensive-offensive formation. More information will be enclosed later.
Four Divine Suns
Summoning the divine power of the four Suns... enough said.
Fire Tornado
Phoenix of Flames
Fireball

The faction of camaraderie and brother/sisterhood, they don't have many well thought out battle strategies and formations, but the versatility of the Earth makes up for their loss of strategy.
The poorest faction, one that holds a deep grudge against the rich factions: Fire and Air. Strength is the greatest virtue in this faction, vastly male-dominated. A tight-knit faction with only around 45 members, the Earth Faction is still a great contender in Faction Wars due to one member... information enclosed later.
Training: 1 1/2 years.
Pithole Formation
A Ring around a pithole, where enemies are trapped... self explanatory.
Maze of Spires (Defensive Trapping Formation)
A maze of spires
Earthquake Advance
Uhm... an earthquake followed by soldiers killing everyone

Earthquake
Pithole
Quicksand
Rock Avalanche
Ivy of Regrowth
Oh, the Air Faction. My personal favorite. Extremely clever, master of battle tactics, most organized, with ranks and jobs and an institute where the prized members of the Air Faction are trained. Proudest and haughtiest faction, very secretive about their location and battle tactics. The best of the best that graduate from the Institute gain the title of Peerless Winged, and can move on to become powerful individuals in the society. If one is not a Peerless Winged, the highest rank they can gain is Commander.
However, with ranks and organization comes politics and corruption, but also comes power and friendship. For people who have read Percy Jackson, the Air Faction closely resembles the Roman Legion. Equal sexes.*More information enclosed later*

The most peaceful faction, yet deadly when angered. Very Chinese style culture and castle, tai chi is practiced often and there is a secret that the Water Faction harbors close to their hearts - a power that no other Faction has achieved. Often the faction that deals with trade and commerce, since they can send boats very quickly across the sea to Tranquilon, and sometimes Zale. Female-dominated.
Training: 2 1/2 years.
