Armedean Fire Pantheon

The Armedean Fire Pantheon is a faith practised by the Armedeans of the Vasterlands. As its name implies, its adherent worship fire in all its forms, believing it to have many unique properties that define everything in existence.

The primary deities of the Pantheon are:

* **Sanat** - Lord of the Fuel, the god of heat. In Classical Armedean, also the god of the weather, food and fertility.
* **Kazavon** - Lord of the Light, the god of light. Classically also the god of the day-night cycle.
* **Avedig** - Lord of the Burn, the god of pain. Classically also the god of justice, death and war.

The Pantheon split in the 6th Century, with some worshippers sticking to classical interpretation and the idea of a trio of gods who split all aspects of worship between them. Others began the contemporary practice of creating more gods for these aspects. The pros and cons of these two schools of thought are outlined below.

## Classical Armedean Fire Worship

The Classical Pantheon has only three gods; it is easy to decide which to worship for a particular endgame, given that any possible wish easily falls into one of the three broad categories. However, prayers must be very specific otherwise the gods may misinterpret the wishes of the worshipper.

Classical adherents tend to worship in sacred groves surrounded by torches. There may be upwards of four hundred adherents at a gathering, at which alcohol runs freely and arson is common. Classical Fire Worship is common in the western Vasterlands - Vadya and nothern Kafetra, as well as small sects in Yerlen and Huon Sa.

## Contemporary Armedean Fire Worship

Contemporary adherents have many more gods than their Classical counterparts; they invent a new deity for every new aspect they find, and as such the Contemporary Pantheon is straying away from true fire worship and towards a multitude of unique and varied gods held in check by three major fire gods. While this makes misinterpretation an easy issue to solve, one must first find the correct god to pray to - with more than six hundred gods so far and no centralised directory, this can be a challenge.

Contemporary Fire Worship is closer to religion as we know it - gatherings are held in temples which, due to the roots of the Armedeans, resemble eastern Orthodox churches. Worship is much more humble, as the eyes of the whole pantheon are on the adherents, and many of the gods are known to have nasty tempers and far-reaching power. The Contemporary Pantheon is isolated to Avzold and the coastal areas of Efulia, though in recent years has shown signs of spreading into neighbouring Olke.
Bat-Signal

The

   Bat-Signal is is a specially modified searchlight with a stylized bat symbol attached to the light so that it projected a large Bat emblem in the sky to call the Batman when G.C.P.D. need help from him. The signal is used by Jim Gordon and Gotham City Police Department. The Bat-Signal appeared in the games Batman: The Telltale Series and Batman: The Enemy Within.
Warehouse 133

**Warehouse 133** is a storage unit located on Eastside Docks. It is where Hamilton Hill and Carmine Falcone stored what remained of the Arkham Drug after Thomas Wayne was killed.

## History

After Thomas Wayne's assassination, neither Hill nor Falcone had the knowledge or the money to keep making more of the Arkham Drug. Fearing that they would eventually be caught or found out if they kept using it on people, Falcone had what remained of the Drug gathered up and hid it in storage containers which he then had placed in one of his warehouses.

The warehouse presumably remained untouched for years before it was eventually ransacked by the Children of Arkham who wanted to steal the Drug for their own nefarious purposes.

Bight of Taerth

The Bight of Taerth is a bay on the southern end of the Trade Lake, spanning from Ashfeas in the north to the disconnected port of Lylf Thaeth. The southern end of the bight is roughly eight leagues from the Merkata River, making it prime land for traders to set up camp; this has not gone unnoticed and the coast of the bight is home to several dozen merchant wayhouses.

The bight is named for the ancient trader Truath, the first trader to settle on the bight and founder of Truath House, the most powerful traders' guild in the area.

**Blackgate Penitentiary** is the primary penitentiary in which the sane criminals of Gotham City are incarcerated, whereas criminally insane individuals are housed at Arkham Asylum. It is located on a small island in the Gotham Bay.

## History

Blackgate is the primary prison for the criminals of Gotham City, with many of Batman's defeated enemies ending up in it.

Whilst it has yet to be seen in the Telltale series, it is confirmed to exist and has been mentioned several times throughout the two seasons.

After defeating Two-Face, the player can either choose to have him locked up in Blackgate or placed in Arkham Asylum for treatment. It is also where the Penguin and the vast majority of the Children of Arkham members ended up after their defeat.

While he was never seen again after his defeat in Sins of the Father, it's very likely that the Black Spider eventually ended up in Blackgate after his arrest.

At the end of Batman: The Enemy Within, depending on the choices made in the game, Bane and Harley Quinn can also be incarcerated there.

Depending on whether or not you accepted Waller's offer to have Tiffany Fox arrested and sentenced for the Riddler's murder, Tiffany could also end up being incarcerated.

Esther Cobblepot

## Biography

**Esther Cobblepot** was the mother of Oswald Cobblepot and one of the last remaining members of the Cobblepot family. Both she and her husband were the sole remaining owners of the Cobblepot fortune and the family's land.

When Thomas Wayne tried to purchase land they owned, she continually refused his offers, even from his associates Hamilton Hill and Carmine Falcone. Eventually, Wayne and Hill, using their influence, committed her to Arkham Asylum, using a specialized drug to fake her psychosis. Despite Esther's pleas, Thomas ordered a dose she would not come back from, causing a violent outburst. Her commitment was possibly one of the reasons why her husband committed suicide.

Esther remained in Arkham for the rest of her known life, eventually dying from unspecified causes. Her son, Oswald, would later join the Children of Arkham to avenge her death and a recording of her commitment was used by the group to tarnish both the Waynes' and Hill's reputations.
Cobblepot Park

## History

Cobblepot Park was built by Theodore Cobblepot in 1953, to replace the defunct Greenleigh School of Arts, and maintained by the Cobblepot family. As children, Bruce Wayne and Oswald Cobblepot would play in the park, with it being considered one of the safest places in Gotham. However, after Esther Cobblepot's commitment to Arkham, through the manipulations of Thomas Wayne and Hamilton Hill, and the suicide of her husband, the park, like the area around it, fell into disrepair and became abandoned.

Hardulf Sveansen

Hardulf Sveansen (514 - 560), also known as Hardulf the Pure or Hardulf the Glittering, was a Varlish nobleman and member of the Guerr-en-Exile.

Hardulf was the only son of Svean Hrolfsson, King of Asvangria. He was raised as the crown prince, but in 532 the kingdom was conquered by the neighbouring Kingdom of Folleland and Svean was forced into house arrest. Hardulf managed to escape, becoming a wandering nobleman.

For a while Hardulf served in several of the various mercenary companies of Suren's Desert; this state of affairs lasted until he met the Guerr-en-Exile in Rustif in around 550. He decided to tag along, and travelled with the band until its demise in 560. It is said that Hardulf was impaled on the same spear as Lleuwen the Raucous.

In terms of personality Hardulf was a very forthright, just person. This clashed horribly with other members of the Guerr-en-Exile, especially Lleuwen the Raucous. Their twin demise can be viewed as a reconciliation of their opposite personalities.

Hardulf's epithet, 'the Pure', comes from his reported inability to view facial hair, thus his face was pure and free of obstructions. The less common nickname, 'the Glittering', comes from a hyperbole of the former; namely, that his pale, hairless cheeks blinded his enemies.

Cwylming (region)

The Cwylming is a sprawling, heavily-forested region on the north coast of the Trade Lake. Split unevenly between Talor and Kafetra, the region is governed from the towns of Mearhus and Wealton in the south and north respectively. The region lies adjacent to Vestr in the west, Legnasia in the north and Aederon in the east.

This region hosts the towns of Seameer, Eordwald, Meditun, Fladh, Laefal, Ribohame, Arezza and Cynrheorst. Of all of these settlements, only two are home to noble houses, and even then house Wihtgil rarely leaves Mearhus. This makes the Cwylming a relatively lawless region as only the fyrdmen of house Herewulf, based in Cynrheorst, patrol the forest roads.
Johnny LaMonica

**Johnny LaMonica**, also known as **Black Spider**, appears in Batman: Sins of the Father, a comic that takes place after the events of Batman: The Telltale Series. Black Spider is hired by Floyd Lawton to assassinate former staff members that worked at Arkham Asylum when Thomas Wayne used it as a base for his criminal operations.

## Personality

Brash and arrogant, LaMonica had a callous disregard for life and often joked when on assignment. A master martial artist, he was proud of his abilities in combat, boasting of his skills to Batman. However he was willing to admit that Batman was the better fighter of the two.

## Abilities.

* **Peak-Physical Condition**: He appears to possess Olympic levels of strength, speed, stamina, and endurance. He utilized an acrobatic combat style and competed with master athletes like Batman competently.
* **Martial Arts**: He was a master martial artist and held his own with Batman in both their fights before ultimately being defeated. His fighting style utilized a mixture of acrobatic strikes, dirty tactics and his pistols.

## Trivia

* Black Spider created by Doug Moench and Kelley Jones.
Borcianska

Borcianska is a Harprician city in the Naevum canton of Sarvalneiv. It lies inland, sprouting roads to Serina, Triciana Maior, Tropaeum, Najsca and Saoornus.

Borcianska, while rough, is the main agricultural centre of the region, supplying grain from the surrounding fields to feed the citizens of several countries. Because of this, there is a local demilitarised zone around the city; if Borcianska's fields are harmed, the entire area goes without food.
Lericonnia

Lericonnia is the name given to a Lacrivian independent duchy in the Lericonne Mountains. It was the domain of the House de Caringois.

## History

The foundation date of 130CE is only an estimation - it is around this time that the House de Caringois rose to prominence. The early heads of the house Jean I and Richaud were highly expansionist, and spent much of their time conquering new lands. Cont Jean I first stepped foot outside the house's seat of Argenin in 133, conquering the surrounding small baronies. His successor Cont Richaud was more ambitious, and in 155 took the iron-mining town of Roumur which, the next year, became the house's new capital.

Later counts were more moderate - Cont Jean II and his successors consolidated the rebellious lands their predecessors had claimed, improving the infrastructure of the region. Lericonnia was large enough by this point to deter all but the most determined of opponents, and the only major actions fought between the conquest of Roumur and the fall of Lericonnia were the Battle of Revleu and the Siege of Clernois - the former was a defensive action against House Journier, and the latter an attack launched in 269 against House de Lafarelle. The siege failed after several years, and resulted in enough losses for Lericonnia to fragment several years later.
Delfar

Delfar is the capital city of Dalfore, and the largest city west of the Trade Lake. With a population over half a million and another half million living in the surrounding areas, Delfar can be considered the largest population centre for three hundred leagues in any direction.

Delfar lies on the north bank of the Merkata River, forming a roughly circular shape between the riverbank and the coast of the West Sea. The central business district, an area of around twelve square kilometres, is enclosed within a well-maintained wall while the surrounding districts sprawl further, ending only where geography insists.

The Merkata River is used extensively for milling and irrigation upstream on both sides, and this has led engineers in Delfar to erect a wall of brick and concrete on the riverbank to shore up the eroding bank. This wall extends from the wall's end on the river to the sea, where a stone wharf takes over. However, this does not account for the outlying district, Roverhame, which is slowly retreating before the river as the bank is eroded.

Across the river lies the ruins of southern Delfar, garrisoned by soldiers of Tianguo. Further inland lies the town of Yueshan, though this is removed from the empty shells of the stone buildings of southern Delfar.

## History

The city was founded by a mixture of settlers from the Flentia Fleet - sailors of the Basque El Cruzado, the English Nightingale, the Greek Rigas Ferraio, the Spanish Unicornio, and the Dutch Eenhoorn and Reigersberg. It was dubbed 'd'Einde', Dutch for 'the end', as a symbol of finality. The settlers had travelled far enough, and this would be the end of their journey.

The settlers had grown close over the journey, but still settled in different areas due to their differences. The resulting 'city' was a collection of half a dozen settlements strewn along a tributary of the Merkata River. Over time, the settlements grew and merged together to form the city known today, but this was a process that took over a thousand years.

d'Einde was, due to its position, able to effectively strangle trade between the Trade Lake and the Persidian Sea. Once the city coalesced, it grew rich and powerful by taxing this trade.
Ancelin

House Ancelin is a relatively new noble family in eastern Lacrive. It holds dominion over the Barony of Marteville, and is bordered by the lands of Houses Broglie, Dacourt, de Ratre, Decharpe, Robillard and Crepouillan.

## History

House Ancelin was instated as Baronne de Marteville in 673 after Luc Ancelin, a chevalien in the pay of Cont Hector of Roumur, defeated three Mamelquar lords in single combat before the Battle of Fez Khum. The time Luc bought by defeating these lords was enough to prepare de Gaudin's force for battle, arguably saving his entire army.

This was considered an act of heroic bravery, and as a reward King Charles II parcelled out the lands around the hamlet of Marteville in the east of the country. House Ardouin had been holding onto these lands since the Attack on the Ruadhain Forest, along with several other Baronies which have since been given out as gifts in a similar manner.

The Ancelins have, however, been kept under close watch by the monarchy. Their direct lords are House de Villepin, and above that the King himself.

## Coat of Arms

The arms of House Ancelin are 'Argent, three Mustanian hands in fist within a bordure Sable'. This refers to the involvement of the house during the War of Aqzar - in particular, the deed Luc Ancelin committed before the Battle of Fez Khum.
Harvey Dent's enforcers

**Harvey Dent's Enforcers** are a paramilitary task force composed of SWAT officers brought together by Harvey Dent who is determined to protect the city from the Children of Arkham no matter the cost. Though they see themselves as the good guys in the ongoing war against the Children of Arkham, in reality, many of them are implied to be corrupt and their extreme acts to defend Gotham prove to be just as much of a threat to the people of Gotham as the Children of Arkham.

## History

### Guardian of Gotham

The Enforcers were first brought together by Harvey Dent shortly after Bruce Wayne was framed by Lady Arkham and committed to Arkham Asylum.

## Members

* Harvey Dent/Two-Face - Leader
* The Lieutenant
* Reluctant Enforcer
Martha Wayne

**Martha Wayne** (Died in 1996) is a character in *Batman: The Telltale Series*, that is deceased before the game begins.

## Batman

### Early Life

At some point, Martha met and married Thomas Wayne, a prominent Gotham City doctor and humanitarian. But in reality, he was an accomplice and ally of the criminal Carmine Falcone and the corrupt mayor Hamilton Hill, who ran most of the organized crime within the city. During their marriage, Martha gave birth to a son, whom they named Bruce Wayne. It is said that Martha knew that Thomas was an accomplice and ally of Falcone and Hill. However, it is unclear to what extent she was involved in its operations and whether she herself was linked to its activities.

After learning of the trio's use of Arkham Asylum, Martha became disgusted with her husband and the people he worked with. Upon learning this, she set out to expose him and his allies. It is not clear if there were other factors that motivated her to do so. It is possible that Martha also asked the family butler, Alfred Pennyworth, to help her expose Thomas.

### Death

However, Hill learned of Martha's plans and set out to silence her. He hired Joe Chill, one of Falcone's hitmen, to murder them and make it look like a botched robbery. When the family was returning from a screening of The Mark of Zorro at the Monarch Theatre, he ambushed them in the nearby alley and pointed a gun at them.

As Thomas pleaded for their lives, Chill shot him twice in the torso, claiming it was nothing personal. He then shot him once in the eye, killing him. As Martha screamed her husband's name, Chill shot her in the chest. As he bled out, he called out to Bruce and tried to hold his hand. After Martha's death, Chill took her pearls and pointed the gun at Bruce, but fled before the police could arrive or decided not to murder the boy.

### Legacy

Following the deaths of Thomas and Martha, Gotham's elite began to band together to prevent them from suffering a similar fate. Chill was later captured by the police and sentenced to Blackgate, but was later murdered by someone who was on Falcone or Hill's payroll. Bruce would later become the vigilante known as "Batman", hoping to avenge their deaths and right the wrongs in Gotham.

Cuando las acusaciones sobre los tratos de su padre se hicieron públicas, Bruce se encontró incapaz de ver a ninguno de sus padres de manera positiva. Sin embargo, después de enterarse de los deseos de su madre de detener los crímenes de su padre, es posible que haya podido perdonarla.

When allegations about his father's dealings became public, Bruce found himself unable to see either of his parents in a positive light. However, after learning of his mother's wishes to stop his father's crimes, he may have been able to forgive her.

Avisir Post

Avisir Post is a fortified settlement founded by the Fallen Company during their service under Dalfore. It was founded on the ruins of the village of Imona. Its population currently numbers some ten thousand.

## History

Built in 504CE, Avisir Post originally consisted of only a simple wooden keep surrounded by a wall and ditch. Outside this wall the nobles of the Fallen Company built their own barracks using lumber from nearby woods. These numbered in the hundreds; accidents occurred, and fires were common.

Over time, the Fallen Company gained power and influence, enabling them to enhance their settlement. In 507CE, the mayor of Helnas gifted Avisir with stone to build a thick outer wall encompassing the entire settlement, and in 509 this was complemented with a new stone keep and inner wall. The personal barracks were also being improved as their residents saw fit, and over the next decade, as more Fallen Company posts were established and troops were moved from Avisir, the barracks rooms began to conglomerate and merge. Civilians also moved to Avisir to offer their services to the rich mercenaries, establishing a sprawling encampment outside the outer wall.

## Modern Appearance

In the modern day of 764CE, the Fallen Company is long gone but Avisir Post remains. The squat, thick stone keep is inhabited by the Duc of Avisir, a hereditary Lacrivian title passed from the founder of the settlement, Duc Godefroy Le Maitre.

Outside the keep is a compound of lavish mansions derived from the nobles' barracks. Several nobles chose to remain in Avisir after their eviction, being protected from the Minister by their old friend the Mayor of Helnas, and these nobles are the owners of most of the mansions. The original wall separating these buildings from the keep is long gone, though its foundations have been smoothed to ground level and are used as a road nowadays.

The outer wall is still standing, though it is in bad repair after two centuries of relative peace. Holes have been knocked in it to allow thoroughfares through the central district and several of the outer roads have been paved. Houses still sprawl in every direction outside the outer wall.
Fiscwicke Meet

The Fiscwicke Meet is a naval race held roughly annually in the Talorian town of Fiscwicke. The course runs from Fiscwicke to the coastal city of Mearhus, some twelve leagues to the southwest, and then back. Contestants come from all over the northern shore of the Trade Lake to compete. Though there is no prize, crews use the Meet as a way to prove their worth and advertise themselves to potential employers.
Antique Phenomenon

The Antique Phenomenon is a strange occurrence when looking at Tairghol and Earth side-by-side. It concerns the trend that Tairghol cultures develop in eerily similar ways to their Earthly counterparts.

The Phenomenon is partly due to logic. When arriving in Halcyonia, humans kept their memories of Earth, along with their clothing and whatever they happened to be carrying. A lot of the time these items were also kept through the Tyrant's War and taken onto the Halcyonian Flotilla when humanity left Halcyonia.

Consequently, these items from Earth found themselves carried and used by their original owners, who congregated into groups mainly by ethnicity and culture. An Englishman on the Hundred Years' War, for instance, may keep his shield bearing his coat of arms, or his longbow, and would stay near other Englishmen. Thus the cultures descended from these, Faramondians, have a high percentage of traditionally-English heraldic charges, and prize longbows in combat.

In this way the cultural groups formed echo-chambers of style and design. Since the arrival of the Flotilla most cultures have only deviated slightly from designs used on Earth - this is due to the sparse population density of Tairghol and the stagnation of technology until the end of the Great Gap. There have been considerable changes in the last three hundred years, but this is a relatively short period of time.
Kisvara

Kisvara is a Barcunian country on the southern edge of Suren's Desert, bordering the lands of the Plainspeople to the south. As such, the south of the country is nearly vacant and serves as a buffer zone, while most major settlements in the country are fortified to stand against raids.

Kisvara also borders Dessar, Kajasthan, Sharaf and Sahran. The latter two have felt the fury of the Plainspeople before, and assist Kisvara with men and arms to hold the raiders at bay.
Regional Championships

**Regional Championships**, often referred to as Regionals, are a type of Pokemon tournament that are held regularly across the Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America and North American Regions. Although they have been a staple in North America since the introduction of VGC back in 2009, they weren't introduced in APAC until 2013 and other Regions until the 2015 Season.

Knights

In the world of Tairghol, there are many who claim low nobility and fight alongside their lords and monarchs. These men are known by many names, the most famous of which is 'knight'. Here I attempt to make some distinction to tell men of this class apart, as regional variations are great indeed.

## Chevaliens - Lacrive

Lacrivian knights are different from most in that, entirely opposite to Scanbrough's army, Lacrivian chevaliens are primarily infantrymen. Chevaliens are armoured like turtles, encased completely in chainmail underneath a suit of thick plate. They wield blunt two-handed weapons - maces, morning-stars and battle axes.

Back at home, a Lacrivian chevalie can expect to be a minor landholder, residing perhaps in a hamlet or small village. Despite this sparse lifestyle, they tend to be on the richer end of the spectrum - prosperous enough to have income from taxing their estates, but not powerful enough to instigate feudal conflicts and run up debt by conquering their neighbours.

## Knytes - Scanbrough

The home of the Lake-style horseman, Scanbrough makes use of men known as knytes. These are lower in status than Riding men but above mounted men-at-arms.

During peace time, knytes live in the holds of their patron lords; without a patron one cannot claim the status of knyte, so there are no instances of hedge-knights or the such. They perform a limited number of duties, being cup-bearers, messengers and tax collectors when required. Generally knytes have a heightened sense of honour and pride, knowing they are second only to their lords and acting as such.

When Scanbrough is at war, it is the duty of knytes to take their masters' money and buy horses. Then they typically travel to the far reaches of their lords' estates to gather levies. These men they command by right, forming separate contingents to those of their lords. The average knyte can expect to raise between eighty and one hundred levies, though this varies by the population of the region, availability of horses and the charisma of the knyte himself.

In battle, knytes tend to wear medium armour - brigandines and lamellar breastplates are commonplace. They bear six-foot spears with bladed ends as well as light swords. Most also carry some form of blunt weapon, be it a mace, axe or club.

## Reiters - Harvota and Pyotrpod

Originating in the far south of Harvota, reiters are a more conservative form of cavalryman. They are usually independent of their lords, being members of one of several orders.
Begwyne

House Begwyne is one of three Aladornic houses seated in the town of Jalobras.

Begwyne bears arms blazoned 'Or, a chevron Purpure between three lozenges Sable'. Like Jalobras's other two houses, it heavily features lozenges for unknown reasons. This may be no coincidence, nor that House Persanus features a single lozenge, House Balharris two, and House Begwyne has three.
Huon Range

The Huon Range is a mountain range eighty leagues in length with its western edge bordering on the West Sea. The rivers Tseung and Yang flow from its foothills to the north, and the rivers Hurva and Astarciy from its south.

As of 764CE, the Huon Range is home to a branch of the Mountainfolk, a race of humanoid creatures that are highly hostile to humans.

The Huon Range is bounded in the north by Huon Sa and Vadya, and in the south by Dalfore and Harä. THe mountain pass between the Huon Range and the main Mountainfolk realm to the east is part of Vadra, and constitutes a vital part of the trade routes connecting the Vasterlands and the Trade Lake.
Fylning

House Fylning is one of Talor's twelve royal houses, the patron of five Cyngs including the incumbent Cyng Ceolhelm the Brilliant.

House Fylning's coat of arms is 'Or, a crown Sable'. The crown currently has five points to represent the five Fylning Cyngs, and is edited to suit each time a Fylning Cyng is elected.

## Notable Members of House Fylning

* Cyng Thursteinn the Anvil, 15th Cyng of Talor
* Cyng Ceolnoth Goldenhelm, 19th Cyng of Talor
* Cyng Aildred the Marked, 23rd Cyng of Talor
* Cyng Ackwulf Straightaxe, 24th Cyng of Talor
* Cyng Ceolhelm the Brilliant, 25th Cyng of Talor
Ancturum

Ancturum is an abandoned city lying on the coast of the Great Northern Bight. Formerly home to around three hundred thousand, it was a booming trading city before the Great Gap, one of the largest in the Vasterlands. Nowadays it is an Efulian ruin, avoided by most.

## Geography

Ancturum is at the base of the deserted Dzugurog Bay, shielded from harsh winds by hills on the peninsula to the east. The city itself is on flat ground, sprawling over several dozen square kilometres. No building in the city is more than five storeys high, a testament to the primitive engineering technology of its builders and their great reliance on crude concrete.

## Identity

The foundation date of Arcturum is unknown, as is the identity of its builders and citizens. Several statues and busts salvaged from the city bear an unknown form of writing. Roads linking Arcturum to Dangosturom suggest some relationship between the cities, as does another ancient road leading to the abandoned village of Aveh in Olke.
Alaric Dardivel

Alaric Dardivel (603 - 682) was a Dunn nobleman and the Count of Northnasloe and Eastlee during the mid-7th Century.

Alaric was born in the Kingdom of Faramond, the son of Eric Dardivel, Count of Northnasloe and Eastlee. He was raised as a scholar in the court of Duke Henry of Berham, giving him a rather inflated sense of loyalty towards Henry. Alaric took over from his father in 645, and when Dunfleasel seceded from Faramond in 648 he followed Duke Henry to join the new Kingdom.

During the Sultan's War of 659 - 661, Count Alaric raised a force of over two thousand men to relieve the Siege of Berham. This force was, however, crushed by Falsili forces at the Battle of the Barrow Hill and Alaric was captured. He lived out the rest of the war in captivity in the city of Ubarif, and was ransomed back to Dunfleasel in 661.

Alaric's captivity, as well as the death of King Henry in 660, crushed him, and following his release he gave his titles to his son Orneric Dardivel and travelled to the university town of Glarny in Flenburgh, where he lived out the rest of his days as a researcher.
Chorasmius Hippas

Chorasmius Hippas (reigned 108 - 104BCE) was one of the earliest monarchs of the Kingdom of Kharos. He is known as 'the Enigma' because only his name and term in office are known.

Evidence of the existence of Chorasmius the Enigma was given by the inscription on an obelisk in the fishing town of Mekaros. It had been covered by a stone plate and plastered over, likely during the reign of King Phyleus as part of his plan to obliterate any evidence of the Peace Kings.

The inscription was partly worn away, but the legible part is alleged to have read 'Chorasmius of the house Hippas, eighth Tyrant of the Kharosian nation... ...obelisk in honour of those fallen in defence of the... ...in the year of his inauguration, this two-hundred and twenty-second year since the foundation...'.
Esheburg

Esheburg is a member of the Sacred Coalition's Northern Wing and an Arsus. It borders Tra Stor, Prai Stresh, Vas and Fliusia.

Esheburg has long opposed Prai Stresh's imperial ambitions and campaigns publicly against Streshi military zeal.

Since it is a city-state, Esheburg consists of the city of Esheburg. It has also inherited ownership of the town of Perdisz through ducal marriage.
Herhal

Herhal is a Yerlenese settlement lying on the Nordzee. It is a major fishing town, and often competes with the next town over - Ostercassel - as both trade the same goods. Herhal lies on the road between Ostercassel and Spornhaven.

## Etymology

There is contention as to the origin of the name 'Herhal'. In particular, the first syllable. The 'hal' part is widely accepted to stem from the Gehemnian word 'halle', meaning house or hall. The 'her' portion, though, comes either from 'herr' or 'her', which mean 'man' and 'far' respectively. So the name Herhal could man 'man's house' or 'far hall'.

## History

Herhal first shows up on the tax and duty documents of the Duchy of Nordzeeland, a state which existed in the area between the 3rd and 6th Centuries. Its fate was the same as the rest of the duchy - it was absorbed into Yerlen following the Ensamkreeg in 515.
Hurva River

The Hurva River runs from the western Huon Range into the Trade Lake, combining with the Astarciy River on its way. It forms the border between Dalfore and its neighbours of Harä, Kafetra and Talor.

The Hurva fertilises the wide basin in which it lies, meaning that land far to the flanks of its waters are rendered arable by the river. Farming communities like Niogar, Nala and Polcato thrive off of this river, being the breadbasket of the region.
Karnavorsk

Karnavorsk is an island in the Bay of Teuthria, off the coast of the Eastforest. Measuring around 3,000 square kilometres, Karnavorsk is wide, flat and green, boasting dozens of natural harbours along its rolling coastline. Crops grow bountifully and pasture is plentiful. But this is an island with a small, hardy population and a massive problem.

No trees grow on Karnavorsk. For hundreds of years saplings and cuttings have been imported from all over the Bay of Teuthria but die, without exception, within months of planting. For an island nation requiring ships to contact the outside world, this problem is paramount.

The problem has been growing in recent years. The Eastforesters, hostile to humanity, have learnt to swim and now carry out raids in the island's northwest, knocking down the drystone buildings and salting the croplands. In the waters around the island another battle is fought - the Town-on-the-Water sinks Karnavorski ships wherever it finds them, and now puts pressure on the Knights of the Sea Gods, the religious order on the mainland devoted to protecting Karnavorsk.
