New Players

Welcome to the nonsense that is Tremaere! The first iteration of this world was created by Skot in 2008 and largely abandoned the following year. Several parts were used for small campaigns or settings for short stories, but Tremaere as this Wiki will try to explain didn't start fully forming until 2015.

One thing that is very important for players to know is that this world, at least if your game is being run by Skot, is constant. Which is to say that if your party ends up setting fire to a large town, other parties of players will no longer be able to go to that town until it's fixed. Your actions in this world don't only affect you and the others around your table, they could have vast ripple effects that could shift other campaigns significantly.

Examples of Player Led Events:

* Crash of Rotherhithe
* Creation of G&G inc
* Whatever weirdness the Twins do
* More to be added

This shouldn't intimidate you. This should challenge you. If Skot is your GM, you should endeavor to do things in character that make him have to return to this wiki and edit articles. And yes, this is Skot writing this. Rotherhithes original map was the only part of this world that Skot made *without* someone having asked him a question he couldn't answer. Every time you ask for some information or detail, it pushes part of the world creation, so never stop. Which extends to how you create your characters as well. Ask about making up a new little village, or some weird lore about it, the world is vast and it's all made up, so why not?

## History

Our campaigns take place in the year 373 **CHECK** P.S. (Post Shatter), civilization has largely recovered after the event and the world has settled into several large factions with many smaller ones that likely will not get their own pages in this wiki.

### Major Factions

* Rotherhithe
* Norton
* Araklay
* Moonbright
* Ivraeson
* The Druix

### Post Shatter

Since the islands took to the sky, many people felt they were harmful in some way. A lot of the islands crashed back to the ground, some rose again others didn't, and still others began forming the rambling mountain ranges. Regardless of what happened to any individual island, the Druix believed that all of the islands should return to the ground.

This opinion of the Druix led to skirmishes between them and the kingdoms of the islands, especially as those kingdoms tried to claim resources still on the ground. Rotherhithe and Araklay have standing bounties of 50GP for any information leading to the capture of a Druix. This has obviously allowed something of a 'witch hunt' to occur with people accusing neighbors of being Druix out of spite or selfishness.

In the following 300 years many battles were fought for land, resources, and pride. Amidst the blood and chaos however were also born many new cultures. Forced to adapt to massively changing climates and conditions a formerly nomadic people may find themselves in posession of great technology, farmers must become hunters in extreme weather. To make everything even more scary for the people of Tremaere, the Shattering brought about the loss of the oceans. Drained away and leaving just seven great seas and a smattering of lakes and rivers. Where the water went is a constant source of discussion.

## Current Events

Only a few months ago a brutal attack was carried out on Rotherhithe by Stormbridge, one of the Druix Groves. This attack caused several trees to grow within moments of the seeds being planted, the trees grew to hundreds of feet tall tearing through anything in their paths. The immense demand for energy these trees called for meant they died only minutes later and began to tear themsevles from the foundation of Rotherhithe and fall upon the city and it's people. This attack created a crack along Rotherhithe island, causing a third of the landmass, the third containing Rotherhithe City, to plummet to the ground and crash into the side of the mountains North of Marketton. Close to a half a million were killed in this attack and the resulting crash, and more follow as the Rotherhithe forces, led by the Hands, charge out to attack everything nearby in hopes of maintain the image of power despite the devastating blow.

A year ago the king of Ord, King something Who givesa fuck **CHECK** was assassinated at his own birthday celebration. The events that surrounded this were strange to say the least, but his wife, Queen Elowyn, has stepped up to the task and is leading her people through the pain. She traveled her kingdom to hear from all of her people and many beyond traveling as far as Phlann to listen to what she could do to help. She stands strong against all of this including the recent allegations of her court spreading the deadly drug known as Kree Powder. Truly she is a wonderful, and inspiring leader.
