Earldom of Blackwood

The **Earldom of Blackwood** refers to both the title in the Stormwind Peerage, and the land traditionally held by the house of Blackfyre, located in the region of Duskwood. The Blackwood itself is quite small in comparison to the territories controlled by more prominent aristocratic families, and consists of four main estates, spread out over a little less than 21,000 acres. The Earldom of Blackwood also includes several thousand acres in the County of Westbank, located just 40 miles outside the Blackwood.

## People

Save for the Blackfyre family, the land is inhabited almost entirely by the hard working men and women who labor in the silver mines, the vinyard workers, a handful of merchants, and their extended families.

## Culture and Economy

Hard workers and devout worshipers of the Holy Light, the citizens of the Blackwood have worked the land for centuries, and continue to improve it. Despite the curse that has befallen much of Duskwood, the resilient people of the Blackwood have endured with grace and dignity. Largely independent of Stormwind's bureaucracy, they have formed their own militia to deal with the constant threat of feral worgen that roam the forests, and have been largely successful in culling the vicious beasts.

As much of the Blackwood's economy is dependent upon the silver mines, most citizens have found employment rather easily. With the recent passage of a law that guarantees them a reasonable wage and death benefits, many of the homeless denizens of Westfall have also found work in the Blackwood's mines.

Once a bustling center of trade, the Blackwood is now home to only a handful of merchants, the second largest part of its economy now derived from the two vineyards.

Dornheim Ventures, Limited

**Dornheim Ventures, Limited** is a privately-held company limited by shares, incorporated under the Laws of Stormwind. Active largely in the fields of venture capital, currency and specie speculation, and increasingly in international shipping, Dornheim Ventures is believed to be owned by Everen Corelas and a number of colleagues.

## Ships

*Sweet Leah* - Brig, 215 tons burthen. Length 90 feet. 12-guns (6 per side, 4-pounder cannon). Launched 619, purchased 626KY.

*Smalton* - Brig, 180 tons burthen. Length 82 feet. Unarmed. Launched 607, purchased 626KY.

*HMS Russ* - Landen-class ship-of-the-line, 2114 tons burthen. Length 189 feet. 24-guns (12 per side, 18-pounder cannon). Launched 571KY, purchased by the defunct Red-Light Shipping in 620KY, purchased from them in 627KY. The purchase of the *HMS Russ* has left Dornheim Ventures at a significant shortfall and may spell the demise of the company if it does not swiftly turn a profit.
Bartholomew Reinhaft

**Bartholomew Reinhaft**, chief executive officer of Ashen Coast Engineering and Construction is a grand master engineer that hails from the Kingdom of Gilneas. Mr. Reinhaft has dedicated his life to the pursuit of engineering and construction, having created the Ashen Coast Engineering company alongside his business partner and friend Berenal Grayblade.

9th Lancers

The **9th Elwynn Lancers** was a formation of the Stormwind Army, active from 617 to 626KY. Having seen service in the First Defias Conflict and Second Defias Conflict, War of the Shifting Sands, War of Outland, War of the Lich, and the War of the Nightmare, the regiment was dissolved following the Fourth War, where it suffered serious casualties that made it a non-viable unit. This celebrated regiment bore the sigil of three crossed lances on a blue field as its regimental heraldry, and the symbol has been adopted as a quartering by a number of the nobles who served in the 9th over its existence; most notably, it serves as a canton in the heraldry of Lieutenant Denver de Leifeld. This unusual adoption of heraldry has been permitted only for those who have served, and may not be included in heritable heraldric charges.
Cataclysm of 363

The **Cataclysm of 363KY** was a brief period in which the immediate effects of the end of the War of the Three Hammers and the summoning of the Firelord into Azeroth were severe, leading to the Two-Year Turmoil. Characterized by a sudden and massive drop in global temperatures, violent earthquakes, and diminished sunlight due to particles covering the skies, the Cataclysm of 363KY was felt globally, and is attested to in the written records of the civilized peoples of the world and the oral legends of the Tauren, Taunka, Magnataur, Centaur, Gnolls and Quillboar. Starvation, political unrest, and mass disruption followed in the wake of the Cataclysm, sparking wars, border skirmishes, and mass migrations - the most notable being that of the Centaur tribes, who began their desperate push into the ancestral homelands of the Tauren.

## OOC Notes and Disclaimers

* While this article's interpretation is pure fanon, there really is a reflection of Ragnaros's summoning in Tauren oral history. It was an event of such a cataclysmic scale that Kalimdor was rocked by earthquakes so powerful they created gaping chasms.
* While the event being the spark for the Centaur invading Tauren lands wholesale is fanon, it is thematically appropriate and makes the Centaur somewhat less cartoonishly villainous.
Alterac Valley

**Alterac Valley** is a great basin deep in the Alterac Mountains between Alterac City and Strahnbrad. The Stormpike Clan of dwarves and the Frostwolf Clan of

 File:Alterac Valley.jpg   orcs both claim the valley as their territory, prompting incessant fighting between their respective factions.

The fortified settlement of Dun Baldar serves as the Stormpike Clan's main stronghold in the region, while the Frostwolf Clan live in their adopted home in the south, Frostwolf Village.

Bjorn Stromvyr

**Affiliations**
 **Status**

**Bjorn Stromvyr** is a decorated soldier and a veteran Paladin of the Silver Hand who has served the Alliance military for more than twenty five years. He is a veteran of nearly every conflict since the third war, and presently serves as Commander of his niece's local troop levy, known as the Myrewood Brigade. The youngest child of Jarl Baldr Stromvyr, Bjorn was born in the Arathi Highlands, on the family estate just East of Stromgarde City.

Forced to leave his family lands after years of fighting valiantly to defend them against the Horde and the Witherbark Trolls, Bjorn now resides in Stormwind with his elder sister, the Dowager Countess of Myrewood. Although his wife was slain by members of the Horde during the March on the Highlands, the couple had one son and the boy has just begun a career in the military in the hope of attaining Stormwind Citizenship.

## Appearance

Tall, athletic and powerfully-built, this man seems as formidable as some men decades his junior. His posture and easy confidence would indicate that he was no stranger to combat. His closely-cropped hair is more salt than pepper, and his strong jaw is often covered in a week or more of beard growth. He might be considered handsome in a more rugged sense.

His armor is simple, Alliance standard-issue and while clearly well-maintained, bears the signs of heavy use. A silver badge is pinned to his tabard, signifying his service as Commander of Myrewood's local troop levy. On ceremonial occasions, a number of medals are proudly displayed on his uniform, making it evident that he was a career soldier and a decorated officer in the Alliance military.
Dagan Clan

The Dagan Clan is a prominent family in the Northern Foothills with significant blood ties to both the Steinskera Clan and the Flint Clan (and through them, the Thane of the region). They are farmers, weavers, and carpenters by trade.

## Noteworthy Individuals

### Aleksei the Short

A Gilnean wanderer, Aleksei the Short was not actually a member of the Dagan clan, but his son's marriage to Brigid Dagan resulted in the birth of Pythia Jorgendottir and established the Dagan link to the Corelas Clan. A harvest witch, Aleksei remained on the fringes of society until his death in 562KY.

### Dornheim Jorgenson

Born around 550KY, Dornheim was the only son of Brigid Dagan and Jorgen Alekson. A carpenter by trade, Dornheim also studied at the feet of his ailing grandfather during his childhood and, while he never developed the magical abilities of the harvest witches, became a font of information on surviving pagan practices in Gilneas and the Northern Hills.

By all accounts somewhat mentally unbalanced, his marriage to Pura Vestlandt resulted in three children before his death around 600KY. Having disappeared into the woods at the turn of the century proclaiming doom, he was not seen until the Spring of 601KY, felled by unknown causes atop a hill.

Arathorian Anarchism

**Arathorian anarchism** is a political theory developing in the Arathi Highlands, deriving from the broader nascent anarchist movement and traditional Highlands culture. Combining the ideal of individual freedom and communal ownership of property with Arathorian notions of hus and Kin, hypothesized ancient clan quasi-democracies, and elements of the recent attempt by certain tyrannical elements of the government to implement a form of socialized welfare, Arathorian anarchists typically believe in the need for a decentralized government taking the form of local political assemblies.

These local assemblies - which differ in hypothesized form among the collectivist, communist, and traditionalist factions - would consist of all willing peoples in an area. Being based on voluntary association, individuals would have the capability to leave any given assembly and join or form an alternative assembly. In an ideal state, this freedom of association, when coupled with freedom from hunger and poverty, would serve to allow for the necessary flexibility in society to prevent conflict over association with any given assembly.
Earl of Ashfort

**File:ArycCoatOfArms.png** **Earl of Asfhort** (Most commonly referred to as *"Lord Ashfort"*) is a hereditary title in the Lordaeron Peerage, created in the year 400 K.C. for Sir Damon Ashvale when he was ennobled for more than forty years of exemplory service to the Crown and to Lordaeron's Army. By law, the title descended to heirs male, and could not pass to heirs female until the year 622 K.C. when the last will and testament of James Ethan Ashvale stipulated otherwise.

Its territorial designation refers to both Ashfort City in Northern Tirisfal, and the great stronghold of the province built by Damon's ancestors, known as The Ashfort. Since the title's creation, there have been eight recognized Earls of Ashfort. Although it is disputed by the last will and testament of James Ashvale, the presently recognized Lord Ashfort is James' half-brother, Arryc Blackfyre Ashvale.

### Countess of Ashfort

Styled*"Lady Ashfort"*this refers to the wife of the present Earl of Ashfort.

### Dowager Countess of Ashfort

Also styled *"Lady Ashfort"* the Dowager Countess of Ashfort is a courtesy title, reserved for widows of the lords Ashfort. As the widow of the 6th Earl of Ashfort, Melysa Marwyn-Ashvale uses this title by custom.

Champion of Seastone

File:Countess Seastone.png  **Champion of Seastone** is a title granted to only the most trusted of Seastone's Knights. It is considered the highest honor a Knight of Seastone may attain and a position, which commands the respect of all the Duchy's military. Seastone's Champion serves as the Duchess' sworn shield and chief military adviser. He also serves as master-at-arms and General of all Seastone's forces. Since the title's creation, there have been nine Champion's of Seastone. The present Champion of Seastone is Sir James Karwyn, who was offered the position after the death of Sir Varyc Marwyn at the hands of the Alterac Syndicate. Despite the Duchy of Seastone losing most of its soldiers in the aftermath of the March on the Highlands and declaring for the Argent Crusade, the 2nd Duchess, Merridyth Marwyn has not done away with the position.

## Duties

Since the death of Seastone's last Magistrate and the loss of several small townships, the Champion of Seastone has been given numerous additional duties. His present duties include:

* Marshal of Seastone
* Magistrate of Seastone
* Commander of Seastone's Militia

Earl of Ravensdale

**Earl of Ravensdale** is a hereditary title in the Gilneas Peerage, traditionally held by the house of Hastings. The title was created in the year 264 K.C. for Sir Charles Hastings. Since the title's creation, there have been 11 Earls of Ravensdale, all part of an unbroken line of succession. The present Earl of Ravensdale is Michael Hastings.

## Land Holdings and Wealth

Ravensdale is an 18,000 acre estate in Gilneas, comprised of a small village, six farms, a hunting lodge, and thirty rental cottages. Hastings Hall is the ancestral seat of the Earls of Ravensdale, and until it was damaged during the forsaken invasion of Gilneas, Hastings Hall was home to three branches of the Hastings family, Reston the Butler, four Footmen, three Lady's Maids, a Chef, and a team of twenty house servants. Until recent years, the estate derived much of its income from its six tenant farmers, and thirty rental cottages. The entire Northern half of the estate is dense woodland, perfect for hunting.

In 603 K.C. the 10th Earl squandered much of the family fortune on the construction of an airfield, and several flying machines of his own design. Although he had intended for the designs to have military applications, the contract he had spent two years negotiating with the Greymanes would eventually fall through. With the Greymane Wall offering protection from outside threats, and the King's isolationist policy, it was decided that Gilneas had no need of such military aircraft, and the Earl was left several million out of pocket. Hastings Hall was nearly sold in 612 K.C. to recover his losses, but a highly profitable art sale in that same year brought in just enough money to save the family seat.

## List of Past Earls of Ravensdale

Cuisine of Gnomeregan

Gnomish cuisine is a highly experimental and unusual culinary experience. While the magi of Dalaran are well known for creating unorthodox but delicious dishes, even their sense of adventure pales before the often bizarre and sometimes downright insane products of a Gnomish engineer-chef. While they are also responsible for a number of more conventional offerings - especially sausages, sweets, and preserved foods - even these wholesome products are usually engineered rather than 'cooked'. Vitamin fortification, mineral additives, anti-caking agents, caking agents, gelatinizers, smootheners, unsmootheners, homogenizers, coagulants, colours and flavours all play a role in Gnomish cooking, and even the simple Gnomish sausage may contain unexpected surprises (above and beyond even the unexpected surprises that are, well, *expected* of sausage.)
\*Vitamin supplements.
\*Ice cream and frozen custard.
\*Gumdrops.
\*Gnomenbrau.
\*Liverwurst, courtesy of the RPG.
\*Beer bongs. God help them.
\*Delicious binary brew.
\*GNERDS. Gnomes like sweet things, apparently.
==Growing International Market==
One peculiar side-effect of the Gnomish fascination with technological cooking is the increasing demand for certain Gnomish foods throughout the Alliance, the Independent peoples, and even the Horde. Ice creams have proven to be an unceasingly popular delight, while military provisioners increasingly work to provide troops with nutritious foodstuffs. In the most recent example, the True Horde forces utilized vitamin supplements in their Kodo, Ready-to-Eat meal packs, stolen from Alliance shipping. Fortified breads and drinks are also in increasing demand in poorer communities as Gnomish notions of nutritional science begin to spread.

==Rationale and Disclaimer==
\*That is the sum total of what we know about Gnomish cuisine. There are the gnome bakers in Dalaran but they may not represent actual Gnomish food, to complicate it.
\*Gnomes apparently like to get far too drunk and then eat sweet things until they go into a diabetic coma. So, watch out for that. They'll vomit on your shoes if you go to a birthday party.
\*No, the beer bong thing isn't my idea. It's from the RPG, and while I shy away from that a wee bit much of the time, there just isn't enough information on gnomes for me to do so. So step on up and try the most fabulous gnomish invention of all time.
\*Once you have vitamins, nutritional science proper isn't far behind. The difference between real nutritional science and Gnomish nutritional science is a hefty dose of SCIENCE! and magic in equal measure. Miniaturized bite-size whole chickens, anyone? All the protein you'll need for days! The difference between Gnomish nutritional science and Goblin nutritional science lies mostly in the amount of potentially toxic and completely untested additives, volatility of those additives, and likelihood of food production plants causing mass oil spills.

He was the eldest son of the legendary King Aderic I, the first king of Gilneas, and was known to fight in his father's name during the War of Silverpine alongside his two brothers who fell in battle. Baelic's reign was troubled at the start as he dealt with the Second War of Thorns and several border disputes with Lordaeron. Despite this, he is remembered as a good king, having founded the beginnings of the territory of Nambitus, though following his passing, the Twins War was waged between his two sons.
Cinderhome

*This Article refers to material related to the WoWRPG and is thus considered Non-Canon, users can use it to their discretion*

Cinderhome is a small community a dozen miles to Hearthglen's east. It is controlled by the Undead Scourge. In an attempt to expand the Scarlet Crusade’s influence, Taelan Fordring once led an expedition to retake the small community. He and his men slew the undead, but before they could bring in settlers and reinforcements, a Scourge host arrived and laid siege to the village. Tirion Fordring, observing the whole endeavor, and worrying for his son, sent heroes to break through the undead line to save the Crusaders within.

## Speculation

It is speculated that Cinderhome is infact Northdale, within the Eastern Plaguelands.
Barony of Bishopstone

The **Barony of Bishopstone** is a minor province in the west of the Kingdom of Alterac, bordering the County of Vestfeldt and the Frostberg Range. It was split from the holdings of the Feuerburg dynasty in 208KY for the House of Bishopstone.

## History

Ashenvale

File:Ashenvale Forest.jpg  The **Ashenvale Forest** is the common name for the great forested valley that resides between the Stonetalon Mountains and the Hyjal Range of Northern Kalimdor. A land of gentle foothills, ancient forest, and temperate climes, it is one of the most important lands held by the Kaldorei people. It is today the site of violent resource conflicts and border skirmishes with the Horde, and smaller conflicts fought against the minor peoples of the land. It was named for its appearance in its initial resettlement after the Sundering - a great ash-choked, but promising, valley.
Edenford

**Edenford** was the capital of the Barony of Edenford, located in the southeastern part of the Headlands of Gilneas. Founded shortly after the War of Aderic, it was given to Gaelik Chester to administrate as reward for supporting the new king of Gilneas: Aderic I. Its economy rested upon the minerals from the local mine, but there were a few small fields located just outside of town used for agricultural purposes.

The city fell in relative obscurity after the deaths of nearly all the members of the House of Chester four centuries after its founding, and was destroyed during the Invasion of Gilneas. Reconstruction had very slowly began on the city, although progress was halted during the Range Rebellion and work has yet to resume.
Alden's Rise

File:AldensRise.jpg  **Alden's Rise**, once a Barony in its own right, lies just to the east of Stonegarde and formerly belonged to the house of Harrow. Since the fall of the house and the end of its bloodline, the Rise has been ravaged by the syndicate, its people forced to live in poverty within the ruins. A single holdfast once served as its primary defense, though it too was abandoned when the Syndicate lay siege to the Rise. Since her return to the highlands, Melysa Marwyn has taken it upon herself to see to the well being of the people of Alden's Rise, often distributing food, cloaks and other necessities to the unfortunate citizens.

## Notable Sites

### Harrow Hall

Built by Alexander Harrow more than three centuries before the third war, this massive, fortified manor served as the seat of the house of Harrow for many years. It briefly served as the Mayor's personal residence until Edwyn Harlow IV's betrayal. Following the Siege of Seastone, Harrow Hall was given to Aeriyth Dawnsorrow as a personal residence in the Arathi Highlands.

### Seagarde Hall

A fortress overlooking the town of Alden's Rise, which serves as the primary defense of the region. Following the Siege of Seastone, Seagarde Hall was given to Talrick Graydawn.

### Alden's Chapel

Just South of Harrow Hall on Chapel Hill, Alden's Chapel was the primary place of worship for the town of Alden's Rise until its destruction in the year 624 K.C. by members of the Alterac Syndicate. Lady Merridyth Marwyn has vowed to rebuild it at her own expense, and to work alongside the laborers in its reconstruction as part of her penance.

### Quel'Reth

After combining the adjoining land occupied by Harrow Hall and Seagarde, Aeriyth Dawnsorrow, and Talrick Greydawn elected to rename the combined holdings Que'Reth, which now serves as a small, Quel'dorei settlement, and base of operations for The Highguard within Alden's Rise.
Argent Embassy

Argent Embassies are offices throughout the world of Azeroth where the Argent Crusade (formerly Argent Dawn) maintains diplomatic relations with the factions of Azeroth. These offices also function as recruitment centers.

## Stormwind City

Located in Cathedral Square the Argent Dawn Embassy was form

   erly the Argent Dawn enlistment headquarters in Stormwind City. The building is well maintained and overseen by officers of the Argent Crusade. It continues to function as enlistment headquarters for various branch organizations of the Crusade.

## Darnassus

Located within the Craftsmen's Terrace in Darnassus, the Embassy serves as a prime recruitment location in Kaldorei lands and acts as the Crusade's main headquarters in Northern Kalimdor. It is run by Dawnwatcher Shaedlass and Dawnwatcher Selgorm.

## Orgrimmar

Once located within the Valley of Strength in Orgrimmar, the Dawn (and then later Crusade's) embassy within the city served as the main embassy for those in the Horde seeking to join the Dawn/Crusade. The Embassy was abandoned and destroyed following Garrosh Hellscream being appointed Warchief. With Vul'jin now in power, the Crusade is working to rebuild their Embassy in the city.

The **Diocese of Stormwind** is the southern part of the historical church province known by the name Bishopric of Azeroth. It acts today as a geographic province of the spiritual authority of the Church of the Holy Light.  It is centered around the Cathedral of Light in Stormwind and extends to the surrounding areas.  The Diocese of headed by its Bishop, Johannes. The Bishop is the Ordinary of the College of Canons and the Lord-Spiritual of the Kingdom of Stormwind. The Bishop also retains ordinary authority over the Silver Hand Chapter.

The Diocese is informally referred to as the Holy See and is considered often to be primus inter pares, though no official canon exists to support this tradition.

## Jurisdiction

The Diocese of Stormwind borders the Diocese of Ironforge at its northernmost point.  The diocese's northern border begins along the mountain range which borders Stormwind City at its north.  It then moves due north until it reaches the mountain range which boasts the Blackrock Mountain.  It then follows that mountain range eastward until it reaches the coatline.  The diocese includes all territories south of this line.

The Diocese of Stormwind is comprised of several ecclesiastical provinces which make up the wider body.

 **Status**

**Damon Blackfyre** was the seventh Earl of Blackwood and held the title from 572 K.C. - 616 K.C. He had four children, David, Cinthia, Danica, and Elisabeth, of which only two survived him.

## Treason

Lord Damon and his daughter Cinthia (See Queen Tiffin's Revenge) were convicted of high treason and piracy after a conspiracy with high-ranking members of the Defias Brotherhood was exposed. The Earl was sentenced to death by beheading, and was executed in June of 616 K.C.
Alonsus Chapel

**File:Alonsus.jpg** **Alonsus Chapel** is the chapel in Stratholme where Uther the Lightbringer was made the first paladin in the Order of the Silver Hand. The chapel was presumably named after Alonsus Faol, Uther's mentor and the leader of the Church of the Holy Light. The Chapel is located just inside Elders' Square from the Eastwall Gate service entrance, facing the open gate into the western districts.

Despite its dingy appearance, it has survived both Arthas Menethil's purge and the Scourge invasion relatively intact. Currently the chapel still stands within the ruined and undead infested streets of Stratholme, completely surrounded by zombies and skeletons.
Carrickton

**Carrickton** is a small trading community on the Kul Tiran isle of Eygreen. It is the capital of the small isle and the traditional holding of the House of Carrickton, a minor Kul Tiran noble family. Its status has been uncertain since the Third War, though some fishing vessels from the isle have been observed in the nearby shallows.
Brotherhood of the Horse

The **Brotherhood of the Horse** (aka Knights of Azeroth or Knights of Stormwind) was the official name of the kingdom of Stormwind's knights before the First Orcish war. Most of those knights were killed during the last battles of the war, but slew many of the orcs before they fell. After the orcish wars, the brotherhood has slowly recovered. Still in service to the Crown, the order adheres to the same tenants set by the brave Knights who gave their lives in defense of the kingdom. They are often regarded as the most feared warriors in the Stormwind Army and a Knighthood in the Brotherhood of the Horse is considered to be a position of great honor.

Dawn-class

The Dawn-class ships are a class of light ships designed by Johan Reynolds to move soldiers and supplies across long distances for the Argent Crusade. The first of these ships were laid in the dry docks at the Lonely Isles. The construction of these ships, along with the design, was ordered by Lord Commander Lantos Swiftsong to ensure the Argent Bulwark would never have to rely on outside aid to get from one location to another.

Dedication of Honor

File:MemorialFountain.jpg  The **Dedication of Honor**is a monument to honor those who fought and died during the War against the Lich King. The monument is located in the middle of Runeweaver Square. The momument's construction was a joint effort of the Kirin Tor and the Argent Crusade. The monument features a statue of Lord Tirion Fordring standing over the shattered hilt of the blade of the Lich King, Frostmourne, with Ashbringer raised high. On the second tier of the monument, there are four statues two humans, representing the Alliance, and two Orcs, representing the Horde. After the Purge of Dalaran, there has been a small but vocal group of Dalaranian citizens demanding the removal of the Orcs from the monument, but the city has not done so at the request of the Argent Crusade. Thus, it is common to see graffiti on the Orcs early in the morning before the Sanitation Sorcerers make their rounds cleaning the city.
Alonsus Faol

 **Patronage**

Archbishop Saint **Alonsus Faol** (originally "Farol"), called **Alonsus Primus** by his contemporaries, was the head of the Holy Order of Northshire Clerics prior to the First War. Following the terrible attrition suffered by the clerics during the war, as well as the destruction of Northshire Abbey, the aged Faol fled with the surviving citizens of the Kingdom of Azeroth to the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

Aided by his apprentice, Uther the Lightbringer, Faol refounded the Holy Order of Clerics as the Order of the Silver Hand, this time equipping the followers of the Light in the heavy armaments of war. Alonsus Chapel, in Stratholme, was the site where he anointed Uther as the first of the paladins within the Order.

Faol died of old age some time prior to the coming of the Scourge to Lordaeron and the Third War. His final resting place is presumed to be Faol's Rest, a small graveyard located within the Forsaken occupied lands of the Tirisfal Glades.

A statue and fountain in front of the Cathedral of Light in Stormwind City honors all the hard work done by Faol in the aftermath of the Second War, including the raising funds to help rebuild the city and reestablishing the Brotherhood of Northshire.

Alonsus Faol was the first Archbishop in history not only retain his name, but to alter his surname as well.

Archbishop Landgren (antipapa)
Seryl I (Gilnean antipapa)
Bishop of Myrewood

The **Bishop of Myrewood** is a titular Bishop, in that Myrewood has not been its own diocese within the Church of the Holy Light for more than a century. In recognition of Myrewood Abbey's history, and numerous contributions to the greater Church, there is still a titular Bishop of Myrewood, though he is now answerable to the Bishops of the diocese of Stormwind, and holds no spiritual authority outside Myrewood. The current Bishop of Myrewood is Thomas Levente, who succeded his cousin, Janos Levente after his disappearance in September of 624 K.C.
Archbishop

**The Archbishop of the Council of Bishops** is the elected leader of the Council of Bishops, an organisation which represents the Church of the Holy Light. Though the Holy Church has faced great division from the end of the Tides of Darkness to the present, many followers of the Light recognize the Archbishop of the Council to be the Head of the Church. The current Archbishop is His Holiness, Archbishop Alonsus II .

Castle Marwyn

File:Castle Marwyn.jpg  **Castle Marwyn** was built by the first Marwyns, and is located on the peninsula known as Dagger Point. It is often locally referred to as *"The Wet Keep"* due to its state of ruin brought on by water damage throughout the last two centuries, during which time it had been rarely used. The largest of its three towers offers a commanding view of Seastone's coastline.

Though he chooses to live elsewhere, Castle Marwyn is currently the official residence of Sir Varyc Marwyn, who was granted the Castle and its attended lands by his cousin, the Duchess of Seastone. The Castle is scheduled to undergo an extensive reconstruction beginning in the Spring of 624 K.C. Sir Varyc was murdered before he could take up residency in the Castle.
Roads

Roads are quite valuable to the Fenix transportation system, and to the taxes of the cities.

Here is the information pertaining to roads.

1. A road must lead from one city to another, or from one city to a Natural Warp Temple.
2. Roads must not vary in height more then 21 blocks from the starting point at the city. (For example, if the road starting at the city is at Y 70, then it must not go below Y 60, or above Y 80.)
3. Roads must be relatively straight.
4. Roads must be a minimum of 3, and a maximum of 7 blocks wide.
5. Should a road be covered, care must be taken that the top of the covering not exceed the height allowed from the start of a city. (In the example above, the roof of the road must not be above Y 80.)
6. Roads provide an income multiplier of 0.05 per block of length. Which equates to 5 Fens per block of length. A road of 500 blocks long, would provide 2,500 tax monthly.
7. Roads are protected by the server.
8. Roads CANNOT be diagonal. Never many any portion of the road diagonal. Always make them straight. Turns are allowed.
9. Roads apply tax to both cities that are connected.
Cuisine of Quel'thalas

## Common Ingredients

Little is known about the blood elves cuisine as they sometimes keep it to themselves though might have some influence of their Kaldorei cousins, however since joining the Horde some of these dishes may have evolved.

* Yeah, we know very, very little about Blood Elf food. If and when I write the full text for this article, 90% of it will be fanon.
* Elf food may or may not be lighter fare, depending on if Kael's innuendo had any basis in reality.
