Tramordian Empire

The Tramordian Empire, also known as Tramordia, is a Imperialist Monarchy that lies in the southern end of Terrara. It stretches south to the coastline and stretches north through the Wild Hills stopping at the Telrunian border. They are known for their strong emphasis on superiority through military prowess and their conservative views on racial purity. They also are well known for being one of the most technologically advanced civilizations in the world.

## Population

### Humans

Humans Consist of around half of all of the population of Tramordia. Human citizens usually enjoy a life at the top of a supremacist culture that praises their kind above all others. Their attitude toward the system ranges in all manner conceivable, with some denouncing the system entirely, to proudly embracing it, to many who hardly notice it.

### Dwarves

Dwarves are generally judged as acceptable by purists, mainly because most dwaves do not mingle with other species, as well as their age old trades of smithery and mining being extremely beneficial to the nation's massive sprawling army. They mainly call the mountains their homeland, but move to the Wild Hills or to the coast in search of work.

### Halflings

Almost all halflings live in shires in the most urban reaches of the Wild Hills. They mainly live in solitude away from the matters of the greater populace, preferring to live sheltered, simple lives rather than quarrel with trouble bringing outsiders. The most they commonly interact with any other race is when they travel to towns to sell crops for profit. And even then they keep conversation brief.

### Plain Touched "Bood-Tainted" Races (Tiefling, Assimar, Etc.)

Those who are not pure of blood, such as teiflings and assimar, tend to be in the mix of the common folk in society. Most tend to be treated by purists as shifty lowlifes who are wanting to cause trouble. This is especially true for tieflings in particular due to their infernal heritage. Some choose to rise above this notion and live the lives they want to live, or some embrace the notion, and commit to a life of crime, some never come by it because of where they live. With assimar, however, due to their divine nature, tend to be considered purer than most races of it's kind.

### "Half-Breeds"

Those of half blood decent, such as half elves and half orcs, are seen by purists as living, walking, blasphemy. Most half breeds within the Tramordian Empire must live in a more suburban or rural area to avoid excessive abuse from others who would want to do them harm. Life for them isn't necessarily bad, but it is difficult.

### Fey

Some brave or desperate fey, such as elves, drow, pixies, or firbolg call Tramordia their home. Most fey are required to conceal their true identities to survive, lest they be killed for being mistaken as a spy or assassin from Telrun. On occasion, you may find a fey completely unashamedly living without a disguise in a town that is much more accepting than others.

## Law and Organized Crime

Due to years of the Royal Family using their power to get away with scandalous and amoral actions in the court of law, the Tramordian Empire's legal and justice system are weak and easily exploitable. This has allowed organized crime to flourish in the empire, making formerly taboo practices such as black market trade, bribery, and bounty hunting commonplace and generally accepted. Outright assassination is still viewed as unwarranted and evil, however.

### The Shademarks

Originating from out in the Wild Hills, the Shademarks are the largest criminal organization in the empire. They have a base of operations in every well populated town and city. They have prospered so far due to their aim to be more of an vehicle for other's illegal activities rather than having their own. The only exception being their massive underground back market, that "trades in anything the King won't let you have", ranging from weaponry and magical items, to secrets and uncensored news.

Their base of operations can always be found by the same mark painted or etched onto the side of a building; the Shade Mark. Most dedicated members have this mark tattooed onto their body.
