The Realm of Caulderon

Caulderon is the oldest of all the Northern Realms. It is said that the first men to come to Norlandía settled because of its rich soil and temperate climate. Caulderon’s architecture and buildings were once the envy of every other realm. Unfortunately, upkeep and repair were not high on the list of priorities for the people of Caulderon and they now face a constant battle to repair their crumbling towns and cities.

Arboria

Arboria is not a town, or even a village, it is a community. A community born out of its inhabitants’ need to stay off the forest floor at night. Set deep in the Daruin Forest, it serves as a sanctuary for its population of rangers, protecting them from the nightly ground-based dangers of the forest. The occupants of Arboria are hunters who live off the forest and who, in turn, manage it by keeping the fauna in check.

Soldiers have started to come deeper into the northern parts of the Daruin Forest to plunder its riches, panning the rivers for gold and cutting swathes of forest down to provide building materials for their crumbling towns and cities.

Troops from the eastern realm of Mantaras had also begun deforestation, burning hundreds of acres and converting them to farmland in a bid to feed their ever-expanding population.
