Economy:

The economy of the Barony of Lemni is primarily based on agriculture and livestock, with much attention placed on producing crops that are resistant and suitable for life in areas often threatened by dark creatures. Resources are used to support the Barony and the Lightbringers.

Religion:

The dominant religion in Lemni Barony is centered on devotion to Arva. The cult of light is particularly strong, and many participate in rituals and prayers to invoke the light's protection against the Darkness. The order of the Lightbringers, composed of a few but powerful chosen ones (who are both wizards and clerics), is regarded as a symbol of hope and victory against the Darkness.

Armed Forces:

The Children of the Light constitute the primary military force of the Barony of Lemni. These heroic warriors are trained both physically and magically to fight dark creatures. The Lightbringers' magical torches are vital to repelling the Darkness, and their ability to wield light makes them formidable defenders of the realm.

Architecture:

The buildings of Lemni Barony are designed to maximize natural lighting during the day and feature magical light sources at night. The capital, Malior, is famous for its majestic temples dedicated to the Light of Arva, with magical torches that constantly shine. The city is also called "the jewel of Lemni".

History:

The Barony of Lemni has a history full of heroic deeds against dark forces. Founded centuries ago by a band of valiant Rhodian humans, the barony has grown as a bulwark in the fight against the Darkness that threatens the region. Around the year 340 NE the Lemni area fell prey to Darkness. Thanks to the intervention of a mythical figure, a dragon who took on human form, called "the Shining Dragon", the darkness was repelled and the territory purged of contamination. At the end of the war the Shining Dragon disappeared, leaving control of the barony to his descendants. The formation of the order of the Light Bearers dates back to one of the most critical events in history, when a hero, guided by the Dragon's flame, managed to defeat yet another devastating dark invasion.

Threats and Challenges:

Despite its steadfast resistance against the Darkness, the Barony of Lemni is often threatened by dark creatures, cultists, and other evil forces, but wherever there is evidence of an infiltration of the Darkness, the Bringers of Luce are always on the front lines, fighting to protect their land and their people.

Holiday:

The most important holiday is the "Day of Radiance", an annual celebration commemorating the historic victory against the dark forces. During this holiday, torches and magic lanterns are lit in every house and street, creating a brightness that symbolizes the victory of light over Darkness.
The Barony of Lemni is a nation of courage and hope, where Light is a constant beacon in the fight against the darkness.
