Pouviel

**Pouviel** is a **Kingdom** designed by **Azraelcares122**.

This kingdom originates from the continent of Unitas, alongside 4 other kingdoms in the Sun & Moon AU.

## History

- The founding of Pouviel occurred first in Unitas, under the rule of 3 mages. The mages, commonly known for their kindness decided to use magic as one of the founding moving parts to keep Pouviel running. The lead mage used Healing magic, and the kingdom was named after her. She was Iyashi Pouviel. Iyashi wanted to create a home for the masses, never wanting to desert a single citizen. This vision would become the kingdom's slogan, albeit over the ages it seems outdated.

- 300 years later, after the neighboring kingdoms Risha & Ovethia were founded, Pouviel was offically the lead kingdom in terms of magic, but the furthest behind in military.

- When a war broke out between Risha and another continent's kingdom, Yūkan, as Risha's allies, Pouviel remained neutral, severing an alliance with Risha, but keeping one with Yūkan. The war ended in just 5 years as they both forfeited, due to the starvation of their people.

- 500 years after founding, a revolution was held against the nobles for the slow but steady corruption, as the new king announced that all people must now pay 20% higher taxes towards the royalty- who, in reality, were swimming in gold. The common people won, and the new king was executed and replaced with the general, who upheld the long forgotten slogan.

- King Corrick was born 400 years after the revolution, marking the first dragon-born royal in world-wide history. He was chastised and humiliated into cutting off his claws, tail, and nearly died of blood loss. He was also sent with death threats for being the first openly bisexual king. Ashamed, the common people realized how much the royals had done for them since the revolution, keeping their promise to be kind. Thus, the common people worked under Corrick's rule much more efficently, breaking barriers in magic and pushing them much further along the way in technology. Dragonborn was no longer an insult by King Corrick's death when he turned 89, next to his childhood friend/husband of 40 years.

- Shaman Niniane Stolmheart spoke out about the mistreatment of the shamans when the kingdom was first created after Corrick's death, and became the queen of shamans. She was threatened many times and every time without fail the shaman didn't falter in her quest for justice. She is still alive, and ascended to become a god, now the God of Shamans. She is the first Pouviellian God.

## Architecture

The people of Pouviel are known for their expertise in healing and magic affinity, thus it is quite common to see floating structures, flying wizards on brooms and sometimes if you look in the right places- a castle hidden underground! The city is a magical place yet is one of both holy and suburban nature depending on where you are.

The further away you are from the capital, the more street life thrives. On the very outskirts bordering on Ovethian territory, there is often a skirmish including robbery. Though, Corrick can do nothing about it as the Ovethian Queen refuses to do a thing about it.
