Alethea
The kingdom of Alethea was once a prosperous kingdom located between the kingdoms of Rose and Bathelon. During the final battle of the demon raids, Alethea was so savagely attacked by demonic beasts that the Wilting Rose wizards who sought to save it were forced to abandon it. The demons were trapped inside of it and the city was brought to the clouds. There it has remained over the last centuries. In Alethea, it always appears to be nighttime. This is due to the overflow of demonic energy trapped in its atmosphere. The energy has also influenced the environment of Alethea, producing dense jungles filled with rabid wild animals. The ruins of Alethea cities are still standing, but demons have claimed the land as their home. In addition to animals and demons trapped in Alethea it is also possible that some humans were left inside of what became known as the Umbra Carcerem, The Shadow Prison.
The Lost People of Alethea
Following the demon raids of Alethea, the kingdom was sealed away. Despite great efforts to evacuate the kingdom there were inevitably humans left to fend for themselves in The Umbra Carcerem. The Lost People of Alethea are the descendants of the few who learned to survive and coexist with the demonic entities who also reside there.
The Prisoners of The Umbra Carcerem
The attack on the Kingdom of Alethea was the last and most devastating of the Demon Raids. The kingdom was attacked by demons and malicious spirits so powerful the Wilting Rose was left with no choice but to abandon it. The Wilting rose performed a massive enchantment on the kingdom, which trapped the malicious entities inside. The demons of The Umbra Carcerem were left to fester and reproduce in their prison. They have constructed their own society here, and are hungry to escape and wreak havoc on the world.
Bathelon
Bathelon recently suffered a devastating plague, but it is now returning to the prosperous kingdom it once was. Its governing body forms a democratic monarchy, and prominent merchants are known for ascending quickly into top political ranks. However, nothing is determined by bloodline here, not even the current monarch; it is based on votes and evidence.Typically, the wealthiest of merchants are voted in. This is a cultural philosophy stemming from the belief that a skilled merchant must be good at handling money, must be a skilled and shrewd negotiator for goods, trade routes, relations, and everything else necessary for a qualified leader.
In lieu of the above qualities, Bathelon has managed to worm its way around allegiances and foes to trade with many kingdoms, even ones that consider themselves an enemy to another included in Bathelon’s extensive trading networks. It’s also one of the least corrupt economies because the markets are regulated by the best detectives in the kingdom.
The Order of the Raven
When the surrounding kingdoms of Bathelon noticed a spike in demonic activity, a monster-hunting guild began furiously training to combat the threat. Bathelon was one of the last kingdoms to face the wrath of the demon raids, and because the Order had long prepared for such an event, the threat was largely averted. Following the demon raids, the Order was disbanded. Over the years there have been numerous attempts to rebuild the Order, but these attempts to resurface were largely unsuccessful until Bathelon suffered a plague.This gave the Order opportunity to organize itself. By the time King Lance returned with the cure, the Order’s new leader was plotting to overthrow all of Bathelon for his own gain, joining up with The Resistance to do so.
Rose
The Rose Kingdom is a highly independent nation located in central Morganna. It is isolated from other kingdoms by a rugged mountain range encircling the kingdom. This kingdom is known for its rambunctious, highland culture and small mountain villages. Presently, it is on good terms with its Yunakai and Bathelon neighbors. The legalization of magic is slowly being phased into law.
The Emerald Thorns
The Emerald Thorns are the highest ranking branch of the Rose Military. This branch is composed of highly skilled sorcerers. Unlike all other branches of the Rose Military, these powerful knights were trained in combat and spell casting before the legalization of magic.
The Resistance
Following centuries of oppression from the monarchies, the resistance was formed by a band of witches and warlocks who sought to overthrow their oppressors. Witchcraft was illegal in the Rose Kingdom until the recent Rose-Yunakai War, and the penalty for such crimes was often death. Witch hunts were common in the kingdom, and now the victims seek revenge against the ruling class. Members of the resistance would like to see all ruling monarchies overthrown and replaced with their own leadership. The resistance was born in the Rose Kingdom, but its influence is quickly spreading across all kingdoms and posing a dangerous threat to the monarchies.
The Wilting Rose
Founded during the Demon raids, the Group that would become the Wilting Rose were called the ‘Roseacae Inquisition’. It was meant to be the solution to the Demon problem hailing the three Kingdoms, but the Roselands in particular. Using Demon-hunting tactics on a massive scale, combined with military discipline and equipment, The Inquisition managed to quickly rally the people behind them, and fight back against the Demonic hordes, under the goal: ‘We will stop the Demon raids, We will find those responsible, and we will restore order, with or without anyone’s approval’.
Despite numerous successes and victories during the Raids, the Inquisition, once the three kingdoms had re-strengthen their grasp, had been used as a form of a ‘scapegoat’, with many calling the group violent extremists and vigilantees. Thus, many Important members of the group left. However, the Three founders of the organization, all high-ranking members in the Rose Military, left with their forces towards the Fortress City of Valpurina, but not before destroying any record of it’s existence. Many believe the Modern Day Wilting Rose is little more than a guild of glorified killers, but the irony of the situation is that they’re the exact opposite.
Using their natural hunting training, and militarized tactics, the Wilting Rose have divided into four segments: The Council of Thorns, which is their governing body The Wilting Rose Assassins, which is the most common form of their people, The Eldritch Knights ,which is their primary military, and the College of Valpurina, which is the more magically inclined group of the city.
Yunakai
The Yunakai Kingdom is a prominent kingdom located in the southern, coastal region of Morganna. Yunakai is characterized by its progressive way of life because magic has been embraced by its ruling bodies rather than outlawed. Thus, historically the kingdom has remained the most powerful of the land, but it was recently sent into political chaos following the assassination of the royal family by the resistance. During the months following the assassination, the resistance was able to seize control of the southern peninsulas of the Yunakai leaving the kingdom divided. South Yunakai is now resistance territory, but at last the closest heir to the throne has been found.
The Yunakai Royal Forces
The Yunakai Royal Forces is any branch of the famed Yunakai military. This military is well trained in combat magic, and most knights will do anything to protect the Yunakai throne.
The Azarus Regime
During the beginning of the rule of Queen Kuvira, there were some that opposed her regime, but none so prolific as the Azarus House. At the time, the House’s head was Sotha Sil Azarus. He became an outspoken opponent to Kuvira’s regime, humiliating the royal family at every turn, and always turning their mistakes to his clan's opportunity. This resulted in Queen Kuvira calling for the execution of the entire Azarus clan. After the questionable actions of the Yunakai Royal family, some have adopted the belief that the last remaining Azarus, Yaro, is the rightful heir to the throne. Supporters of the Azarus clan are said to make up the newly founded Azarus Regime of South Yunakai.
