Before forming into the military super-power that it is today, the now Dremorian Empire was nothing but a large group of city-states inhabited by the Dremorian people. Repeated invasions, and eventual conquest, by the more unified Kingdom of Anseria created a single, common enemy among the different factions. It wasn’t until 200 years later under the banner of Prince Valian, from the large city-state of Armos, that the Dremorian people unified and evicted their Anserian oppressors. After a series of vicious battles and defeats for the Anserian army, they were left with no choice but to recognise the new sovereign state. Valian was crowned king and the Dremorian Empire was born, and with it a military power the world has never seen before.

The current emperor of the Dremorian Empire, Lucius rules his country with an iron-fist and a ferocious tenacity. After the loss of the beloved Queen Reina, he has begun a slow descent into a spiral of ruthlessness and aggression. While many now call him the “Mad King”, Lucius remains incredibly clever and coherent. He is the primary individual responsible for the creation of Dremoria’s ‘super-soldier’ program.

Desmond is the eldest son of Lucius and the current heir to the throne. He is also their best general with a tactical mind rivaling his father’s. His mind is not his only strength. Desmond is the first successful case to come out of the super-soldier program, earning him the moniker ‘Subject Zero’. The process, however, negatively affected his ability to feel empathy for others and has grown increasingly distant from his emotions and people.

The second Dremorian Prince, Dante is a reckless individual and near polar opposite of his elder brother. He loves to envelop himself in all the pleasures of life, which often mean women and alcohol. He does not however partake in either when he is on duty as commander of his unit. As a second-generation super soldier, he was spared the horrors many of the first generation went through. His personality is far more aggressive than his brother’s. Dante is perhaps the best warrior in Dremoria, but his temper can often lead to his downfall.

Dremoria’s capital city and the most well-defended fortress in the entire empire. The buildings are mostly made of a highly resilient, flameproof, black stone mined from a nearby mountain. Armos possesses a huge cultural significance to the Dremorian people that non-Dremorians, even slaves, can not enter inside its walls.

The suspected birthplace of Dremoria’s super soldiers, most of the military research and production occurs within this city. Weapon dealers also sell their wares here in a large market known as the ‘War Bazaar’. This city contains the second largest concentration of military forces and is under the vigilance of lord-governor Silas Verdine. Rival kingdoms have sent agents to steal secrets but none have ever returned.

This city is an enigma among the Dremorian major cities for many reasons. The city is the only one with a large port and was the last city to be annexed into the empire. Non-Dremorians experience the greatest amount of freedom in this location and thus has the greatest population of non-Dremorians living there with the percentage being 40% other. Lord-governor Encel Armenis is the figure-head in charge of this city, but there are rumors that an underground organization calls the real shots. A number of different houses vie for political power and favor here with the lord-governor being at the top of this game.

That was until they stumbled across a magical anomaly that caused large portions of landmass to float in the sky. This was also around the time that a deadly plague afflicted a large portion of their population. The present day capital of Aion was settled on the largest island, called Salvore, while those infected were forced into settlements below in the shadow of these majestic islands. Portals were constructed very recently in its history to allow non-flying visitors to the once inaccessible islands.

The queen is generally loved by the many citizens of Anseria. While her husband is in charge of the nation, she handles the majority of internal affairs including politics between noble houses.

The first city ever settled on the largest landmass of the floating isles, its history is as old as the kingdom of Anserith itself. It is often called ‘The Golden City’ by outsiders due to the prevalence of gold and white stone in the construction of its buildings. All of Anserith’s nobility reside within this city and as well as the majority of the weathier portion of its citizens. Anserians pride themselves in the fact that Aion has, to this day, never been ransacked by foreign armies.

Neverra was initially founded in direct opposition to the founders of Aion, who were responsible for the exile of many Anserians during the time. Military tactics were greatly improved upon by the Neverran Anserians, as proved in the first and only civil war ever to occur in Anserian’s history. The reigning monarchy in Aion was deposed and replaced with an Neverran ruler, a line which to this day remains unbroken. Neverra today holds the largest military base in Anseria and is where all of their officers are now trained.

The third largest island in the kingdom of Anserith, it is here that the famed Astaris Library is located. Evernal was the last of the Anserian major cities to be founded due to it being previously host to a large number of flying monster hives. It has quickly become the center of research and education in the kingdom, with the largest university located near the Astaris Library.

Verouge serves more as a resort city than anything else. The portals located in the city of Cherim below link to portals here. It nearly rivals the splendour of Aion and provides many services to entertain both citizens and tourists alike. The most famous location in Verouge is the ‘Grand Skyview Auditorium’, a mostly glass structure veering off the edge of the island. The resort theme of the city has led it to becoming a large, growing center of culture in Anseria and nearby kingdoms.

The largest Anserian city on the surface, it is heavily fortified and operates as the main trading hub for Anseria. It is also the only city where non-Anserians can own property. Due to it not being limited in expansion, the city has grown exponentially and is the second most populated city in Anseria. Located in the central plaza are portals to Verouge, a resort city located on one of the floating isles above.

It is perhaps the most unique city in terms of the geography of the island it resides on. In the center of the island lies a very tall mountain, something not present on the other islands. Seris was built up all along the bottom of the mountain, where the only flowing river on the isles comes from. The majesty of the mountain led Anserian’s religous elements to establish their headquarters here, with a large sanctuary located near the mountain’s peak. Many Anserians make a pilgrimage up the mountain to visit this sanctuary, doing so without the use of their wings.

Roughann lies on the edge of what is considered the ‘Civilized lands’, nothing but beasts, monsters, and lost civilizations lie beyond their territory. Life is not easy in this fringe kingdom, but those that tough through will find a place in it. The people are governed by a council of chiefs, who in turn elect a head chief to rule over all in times of need. That means that each settlement is pretty much independent of each other and often clash in contests of strength.

Frequently referred to as ‘The Hub’ by locals, Charal is the first city most will go through upon entering Roughann. It was the first city settled on the edge of the ‘Civilized Land’ and consequently is the largest settlement in the region. The most prominent feature of the city is a large open market used by the other tribes for exchanging resources. Due to its size and favourable location, it is seen as the non-official capital of Rougann. Charal maintains a strict policy of neutrality in inter-tribal conflict and is often called upon to mediate negotiations. This had led to a lot of Head Chiefs being elected from Charal.

Seland is the last sizable settlement on the fringe, the city resembling more of a fortress than an actual town. Monsters attacks are a normal occurrence which has led the populace to be hardened and adaptable. Every man and woman of age must be able to fight without exception. The abundance of monsters in the vicinity has led Seland to host their own lodge of monster hunters. The greatest, if not best, warriors of Roughann will likely claim Seland as their home.

Kalthorn is famous all across the kingdoms for the large, complex dungeon at the heart of the city. The entrance to the dungeon lies within a large palace, the building which the first settlers discovered lost in an unexplored forest. The intetior of the palace was completely devoid of any and all valuables, furnitures, and decoations leaving only a large pair of metal doors in its lower level. The palace has since become a hub for those wishing to find treasures in the dungeon, of which there are plenty along with equal amounts of danger.

The city has never stopped expanding and is currently the largest human settlement in the world. It is one of the only kingdoms that does not revere one particular god 0r goddess above the others due to its factions of paladins.

The end of the harvest seasons is marked with a festival called the ‘Bread Bowl’ in which many forms of famous Lustere bread is freely available for eating. Of course the ideal conditions for wheat has lead to a fine variety of beers as well.
