The world map of Alveria, showing the most important areas/cities.
[Background]
--------------------
Which world you're going to play in.
The kingdom of Alveria, a peaceful kingdom for generations. Ruled by the Alveria family every inhabitant of the kingdom was happy. Garrain were known to be ‘strong’ kings, never doing something the easy way. Because some kings always ventured outside, dressed as peasants to attract no attention, it was decided that every newborn heir to the throne got the king’s mark. The mark, a simple crown, was branded where the heart was. This way it was easily hidden from the public, but easily shown when needed. Every heir also got training in a weapon of their choice, so they could defend themselves from attacks when outside.
Everything changed when two neighbour kingdoms, Kerall and Vanerna, started a war over border issues. On the border between the two kingdoms lay a thick forest, both claimed that the forest belonged to their kingdom. Kerall was the stronger of the two, but had trouble with the guerrilla tactics of the Vanernan soldiers. Both kingdoms urged Alveria to join their side, using reasoning to explain why the forest should be theirs. Gregory Alveria, king during that war, decided to, unlike kings who ruled before him, take the easy way out. This enraged the peasants who favoured the kingdom of Vanerna, who helped them in earlier wars against Kerall.
The peasant started to revolt, and even though the king’s army was stronger and better equipped, the peasant rebels won battles. The reason was simple, a large portion of the king’s army, how loyal it was, refused to fight the peasants. The portion that fought the peasants just couldn't cope with their guerrilla tactics. So eventually the king was pinned down, with only his castle left. The battle for Tyrigia was the last battle of the civil war, and the only time the two armies fought head on. The remnants of the king’s army were far outnumbered by the peasants, and traitors. Gregory told the remnant of his army to flee, as he would do the same. So the last battle of the war, was an empty battle, a bloodless battle.
The king ran, and together with his wife lived his life in exile. When the rebels heard of the king’s escape they sent out scouts throughout Alveria, to try and find Gregory, and kill him. Herall Erginn crowned himself the ruler of Alveria, ruling the country as a tyrant. Scattered followers of the last king have founded, The King’s Soldiers, pledging loyalty to the Alverian family. In response Herall has placed spies in every city, and town. These spies keep an eye out for the illegal group, and report whenever members of the group are spotted, using telepathy to reach the archmages of the tyrant.
Using this method the tyrant has managed to completely destroy the rebel group within a decade. The scouts sent to find the old king found him after almost fifteen years, forcing Gregory and his family to live like nomads. The scouts lost them, and everything seemed over for Gregory and his family.

[Nations/Factions]
--------------------
Though Alveria still is one Nation, it's about to fall apart. The peasants who started the uprising some years ago, wanted Alveria to be a strong nation. But still other kingdoms laugh at this Nation, the only reason they don't invade Alveria is that they don't want to clean up the mess it is now.
The centaurs, are creatures of myths, most people never meet them, some are fighting them each day. Unlike with the orcs, the humans have declared war. The tyrant sends a campaign to destroy centaur outposts every week, and the centaurs ride out almost every day to raid villages nearby their territory.
Orcs are considered a plague by the humans, and are therefore avoided as much as possible. Until recently the Orcs and humans weren't at war, though recent raids by Orcs may change that.
The Red Cloaks is a faction of strong warriors, considered the strongest by many. They are also the mercenaries of Alveria, almost every mercenary is a red cloak.
The hidden shadows, not much is know about them. This is because they stay hidden deep in the forests of Alveria, though they tend to avoid centaur territory.
The traders faction, protecting every merchant, at least they try to. Most of the time they hire mercenaries to accompany the merchants on their journeys. Every merchant is part of this company, as most don't have enough money to hire protection themselve. This is also the only faction which asks payment of their members.
