Kokiri (Conquest)

The Kokiri (pronounced Ko-keer-ee) are a playable faction in Hyrule: Total War.

Description
Deep in the forests of eastern Hyrule rested a kingdom unlike any other. Under the guidance and lordship of the Great Deku Tree, the childlike Kokiri arrested control of the woodland realm and established a land of peace and isolation. The Great Deku Tree's utopia would not last, however, and as wars ravaged the surface of Hyrule time and time again, such conflict would bring the Kokiri into the field of battle.

Language
The Kokiri primarily speak Deku, as taught by Kasuto.

First Golden Age
The history of the Kokiri begins with a group of renegade Hylians known as the Kokiri Bandits. These bandits arose in the chaos that ruled the Kingdom of Hyrule following the Rise of Ganon, and occupied the abandoned outposts of the Kingdom of Hyrule's eastern expansion into the Faron Woods and Kokiri Forest as bases from which to raid the surrounding countryside. For years they pillaged the frontiers of Hyrule and slaughtered the native wildlife of the forest, until the made the mistake of attacking the Deku Trees, who, under Kasuto's leadership, united the Wolfos, Deku Scrubs, and Huskus and destroyed the Bandits, slaughtering them to the last man and woman. Kasuto took pity on their children, however, and set about the experiment of evolving them past their base animal instincts- the Kokiri were born.

Shortly into the Kokiri's history, a Kokiri state largely free of Kasuto's influence emerged in Northern Faron Woods. During its reign this Kingdom of Faron constructed the Eastern Palace. Over time, the effects of being outside the influence from their parent and attack by the resident Lizalfos, whom has already been driven south by the Kokiri, took their toll on people of the Kingdom, and it collapsed into the various clans of the Mudmen of Faron.

Tech Tree
The Kokiri Techtree is rather spread across settlement levels. Their production buildings require no upgrades at all, but the troops they produce are dependent on population, encouraging settlement growth rather than rigorous upgrades.
