Suel Imperium
The Suel Imperium, also called the Suloise Imperium and the Empire of the Suel, was the ancient home of the Suloise people. It was, at times, extremely wicked and decadent. It is now buried beneath the Sea of Dust.
Mendergast is a city that was once located in the Imperium before the twin cataclysms.

History
The Imperium was founded in the depths of the forgotten past, and little is known for sure of its early history. The significance of the year 1 in the Suloise Dating calendar is not known.
The earliest known event was the Eight-House War in circa 1100 SD. The race of skulks is thought to have been created at this time.
Around 3114 SD (-2400 CY), the Suel Imperium fought a series of wars with the monsters of the southern Crystalmist Mountains, what are now called the Hellfurnaces. The leaders of the enemies of the Suel were the so-called Fiery Kings, great families of red and shadow dragons, who led armies of orcs (roka in the Suloise tongue), goblins (or chebi), and hobgoblins (hochebi) against the fighters and wizards of the Suel. Working in concert with them were the treacherous Inheritors of the Red Gloom, magic-using worshippers of the evil Pyremius who made common cause with the dragons.
With the aid of Wee Jas and perhaps other gods, Emperor Inzhilem II of the House of Neheli-Arztin began the creation of the eight Orbs of Dragonkind, though they were not completed until at least fifty years later, during the reign of Ubrond Thrideen of the House of Neheli. Ubrond had ascended to the throne after Inzhilem II's assassination around 3158 SD (-2354 CY) after a feud within the House of Neheli-Arztin tore the house in half, wiping the partial house of Arztin from existence.
In approximately 4297 SD (-1219 CY), the Suloise Imperial Congress approved the creation of the derro, blasphemous hybrids of human and dwarven slaves intended to serve as miners for the Suel mages. Clerics of Fortubo led numerous revolts in protest, and Fortubo abandoned the Suel humans over the terrible creation, joining the dwarf pantheon instead.
In 5031 SD (-484 CY), the Baklunish-Suloise Wars began, leading to the Great Migrations in which countless Suloise fled to the eastern lands and cumulating in the Rain of Colorless Fire which would destroy the Suel Imperium entirely.
