Campaign Background |
|
| Ordarian |
Stretching across the northern part of the continent and across the seas to the nearby tropical islands, the empire of Ordar has existed for nearly 2,100 years, with many successive emperors, and before that, consuls.
The Ordarian empire consists of the provinces of Ordar, Hezeseth to the east, and Rhidar to the south. It once also contained Turta and Vis, who both fought and won their independence in a series of brutal wars. Rumours of war in Rhidar have become more prominent as the people of that province yearn for their own identity and not that which has been thrust upon them by the elven emperor Caledor Naedorn, who has held the crown for 385 years. Caledor is a vain emperor, having installed many lavish mirrors in the palace so that he can look at himself, or admire the beauty of one of his nine beautiful wives. It is almost as he does not care that his empire has slowly crumbled under his watch, province by province. To the west, the old enemies Turta and Vis are assembling forces to march east into imperial lands. The borderlands especially take quite a hit as there are little soldiers so far from the city. This set of information will show you the various regions of the world and display maps, people of import, and locations where you can expect to find troves of adventure for a long, long time. |
| Cict (Monday) | The
isle of Cict sits north of the Ordarian lands. Many have tried to conquer
it's people over the years, but none have done so. The shores are rocky,
and many vessel has been beaten and broken by the relentless waves and the solid
rock. It is said that the gods themselves watch over this island, a place
full of mystery, magic, and the old ways.The isle is split into nine warring kingdoms. At its center is the land of Esteria, a mountainous and volcanic waste where the magnificent temple of Ester was created by the gods over the very fires of Mount Belkior itself. No blood may be spilt in this land. The nine rulers of the isle meet here to discuss war and politics and to serve the gods' will. It is in these icy and stony lands where adventure is aplenty and the gods are as real as the people that worship them. Set in the Arthurian Legend period as inspiration, this dark and gritty isle needs heroes to unify it. Are you that hero? Pick up your sword then and walk these lands if you dare... |
