HISTORY

#### General Overview

History is one of the greatest sources of power any being could possibly hold. It's important to keep the history of our world and the events that took place properly documented so that we can learn from it, and prevent the bad from happening again. Knowledge is power, after all!

Its monarchy has dated back several centuries and continues to grow stronger, the nobles of the country are treated with courtesy. The common folk are treated as well as they can be, but tend to be rather feisty when they aren’t given what they want. Most dangerous magical creatures have been hunted out of the kingdom’s inhabited lands, but critters like salamaenders and jackalope still roam.

*A.S.K. has a fortified capital, a trading port, a farming district and two major towns.*

### Wrosleyn

The common folk of Wrosleyn are built strong and last names are not honored by descendants, but rather how hard one fights for them. Industrialization controls Wrosleyn more than its own leaders. Snizzles and Gremlins are known to be found here.

*Wrosleyn has an iron capital,  a trading port, an abundance of metal and one major town.*

Some of these peoples live as hermits, others live in tightly-knit communities, and some live to become thieves on the run. Haukea is known for its indescribable magical aura and incredible cold.
