Like some other nations in the region, the throne and nobility of Tasadeon went to adventurers after Arumelia backed out of here. However, unlike many other adventurer’s kingdoms, Tasadeon’s rulers actually had some sense about how to rule a kingdom, as well as some good local advisors that the first king, a renowned ranger, had the sense to listen to. The first king, Jonja Igonza, was an adventurer from far to the east, where Edyliene’s black population lives. He overthrew the wicked Count Fernix, the ruler of Delgaude and married the count’s daughter, establishing himself as a local lord. The current king’s father married a Trynsern girl, one of the Empire’s Sister of Surrea order of fighting women. Since then, Tasadeon’s attitude has been flavored favorably towards Trynser. In fact, a branch of the Surrean Academy has opened up in Delgaude.
In years past, Tasadeon was settled by the ancient Celebrunt culture. The various kingdoms in Celebrund never had a tight grip on the region, and by the time Jonja Igonza took over, it was a collection of despotic baronies and counties. Today, overseas trade with the black lands flourishes, the trade route passing through Trynsern waters, to the mutual benefit of both. There is much trade with Trynser as well, and the Tasadeon ports are friendly towards Imperial merchant and naval shipping. However, Tasadeon is careful not to annoy Trynser’s many enemies.The Tasadeon of today remembers its adventuring heritage, and has a better attitude about adventurers than many other realms, though they’re also aware of the excesses that the profession may breed. As it is, the current Tasadeon king has a bounty out for the creatures inhabiting the monster infested swamps along this country’s border with the Amethyst River so Tasadeon can establish some more sucessful settlements to the east.The nation can be geographically split into three diverse areas. The northwestern section is rocky and mountainous, though the peaks never rise above five thousand feet tall. The southwestern section is hilly and dotted with stands of trees and pastoral fields. Most of the country’s settlement lies in this section. The eastern third of the nation is mostly dense forests with a couple of cities that profit from logging and other industries that flourish in the woods. A thin strip along the wildly meandering Amethyst River, about ten miles wide at its widest, is a thick swamp that makes settlement along the river difficult.
