History
The Great Boneshark Empire has always been ruled by the Alpha Boneshark. It was formed when Walter Rodrigue Grosvenor Derekson formed a small army of Bonesharks to defend their home in the Greater Mushroom Forest from invading Reaper Leviathans.

Walter was succeeded as ruler by his only son about seventy years ago after a reign of expansion, Enrique Opochtli Alberich Derekson. Enrique finished the wars his father had left him, before declaring peace and committing to creating a strong infrastructure to support his people.

Five years ago, Jonathan Theodoric Apsat Derekson took over the throne after his father retired. The empire lived in peace for four and a half more years, until Enrique was assassinated and Jonathan called for revenge.

Military
The backbone of the military is made up of several companies of Bonesharks, totaling 1,138 troops in total. Two companies of Stalkers also exist, with 269 troops enlisted. A small squad of a eight Reaper Leviathans typically patrols the Crater's Edge border as well as providing support in major battles.
