Elladonia
A human kingdom created 6000 years ago to celebrate magic, and how it was used to protect their people during The Great Disaster. Here, magic is a way of life. Those who aren't spellcasters often own some magical items to make their daily lives easier, if they can afford them.
Culture
The Elladonians as a people are a cheerful group that love festivals and other types of celebrations. They are also highly religious and often follow the gods of Arcana, Knowledge, Life and Light. Among the scholars of Elladonia, the faiths of Irene the Goddess of Magic and Sopheia the Goddess of Knowledge are very common, while the soldiers and the commoners often pray to Aelius The God of The Sun or Zoltan The God of Life. While these are the more popular faiths, there are churches and believers of the other gods and goddesses spread throughout the land, as the common Elladonian does not discriminate in others faiths. They are quick to spring into action, which can sometimes be detremental to them as they can be to accuse others or head into war. This unfortunately does not always go their way as they do not handle tragedies very well. They say that Elladonians take the longest to mourn their dead and the longest to forgive an enemy. Though it is also a saying that the Elladonians make the greatest allies.Rulership
Rulership of Elladonia has belonged to The Stormchaser Family, as they were the founding fathers of Elladonia after the tragic Fall of Endron. The first Stormchasers were wizards, who strived to find ways to protect the people from the dangers of the world. They believed magic was a tool that could be used in a multitude of ways, how it was used depended on its wielder. While they knew that there would always be people who would search for ways to bring harm to others using magic, they wanted to be the ones who stood against those oppressors. When the ancient wizards council of Endron began discussing the founding of a kingdom in the name of Ellania The Goddess of Creation, the Stormchasers naturally rose to the position as leaders and guided the kingdom into what it is today. While the royals no longer practice magic as diligently, they still believe that magic is a tool that should be used to make the world a better place. Today, the kingdom is currently ruled by Scarlett Stormchaser, the rightful Queen of Elladonia and her husband Andrew Stormchaser.Regions
Elladonia is split into three regions, each with a separate duke that governs over the many lords in each region. These regions are: Alterwood, Riverdale and Arvendon and they all share a common set of laws decided by The Elladonian Royal Family. There is a great taboo on necromancy, due to past tragic events that occured within the kingdom and while the knowledge of Necromancy is preserved by trusted noble families, there is a ban on raising the dead as undead. Necromancy is the only school of magic that is illegal to practice within the kingdom, and while other schools can be practiced at will; it is illegal to harm others using magic or to influence them using charming abilities. The Elladonian Book of Laws contains the laws of the land and what the punishment is for each crime.Relations
Due to the popular nature of magic, Elladonia has a close relationship with The Arcanium Index, who now has headquarters in every major city in Elladonia, and in return they occasionally do favors for the crown. This agreement comes from a long history of working together to make the kingdom a better place for their people, ever since the founding of Elladonia. While Elladonia is on good terms with most of their neighbours, they have always quarrelled with Theria as their cultures collide quite drastically. With Therias hatred for magic and wizards and their drastic and discriminatory actions to keep wizards out of their country it was natural for them to collide in a multitude of wars throughout history of the two kingdoms. Other than Theria, the Elladonian army are also openly causious of the High Elves from A'maelamin. While they do not want to discriminate, they have openly stated that if A'maelamin does something similar to the Creation of the Beastkin again, Elladonia will declare war on them in the spirit of the now exinct Angels of Haven.Map of the Kingdom
