Description
"Legionaries of the Eucadian Empire! For too long have the Kurvidic Legion and their Dark Elf masters rampaged through our lands! For too long have our people suffered at the countless atrocities committed by these Black Legions! For too long has this war raged! Nearly an entire generation has grown up not knowing what peace is. Not knowing what the Empire of old was. We change that today! Not only do we fight for our lands, or our homes, but now for our families! The Legion is at the Citadel's doorstep. We are all that stands in their way!-"The general continued his speech. His ranks silent before him other than the small whispers and murmers of the frightened soldiers.
"Hey..." The legionary next to her muttered, before lightly elbowing her.
She barely turned her head to acknowledge him and nodded slowly.
"I got a wife waiting for me back home.. You?" He whispered.
She didn't respond.
"I'm sorry.. talking removes the nerves.. ya know? I-I just thought-"
"Sera." She said cutting him off.
"Huh?"
"My daughter. Her name's Sera." She said bluntly
"That's a good name.." He sighed. "I have almost had a child too.. But.." He stopped mid-sentence
She knew what he was feeling. She felt it too. "We have all felt the sting of the Legion's hand.." She said, "It's not what has happened that we should worry about. The past is the past. It's what we do now that defines us."
"For Sera then." he said, smiling under his mask.
"For Sera...." She said, hushed as the General had just finished his speech.
The Horns of war had sounded...

Your fantasy 'Roman' world? Elves and humans together in a multicultural, multiracial empire?

Well the fantasy Roman-like empire. Not exactly world. And yes, it thrives on being multicultural and multiracial. It's what makes it strong.
I'm actually inking this pic now to be less Sketchy

I always liked dwarves In stuff that you'd see in a LOTR movie personally, But everyone has their own takes
Though the lorica segmentata definitely seems like something they'd wear. Or at least have designed

Yeah my dwarves aren't your average Nordic cave dwelling fellows. Their Mediterranean based with a culture around trading. mining, and war. They all lived in their own city states; on the islands; for awhile too.

which is a pretty original concept rather than the regular dwarven idea of staying underground and keeping to themselves

Can't disagree on that :0
You might also want to look deeper into some late Roman or Byzantine armors. Especially those helmets. x___x

Omg I love Roman-Byzantine and greek stuff. Cool as shit. Actually had plans for a Byzantine-like empire later down the line. The Estonian Caliphate was gonna have some cooler looking stuff like that
