Arcadia
The Cradle of Creation and Conflict.
Arcadia is a vast and storied continent, a land of abundance and contradiction where countless cultures, races, and landscapes coexist under one ancient banner. From the frostbitten peaks of the north to the glittering coasts of the west, its people have endured through centuries of change, guided by tradition, elemental reverence, and the unseen hand of the Eternal Sovereign.
Society and Rule
Arcadia is guided by the unseen Eternal Sovereign and a council of six. Each member governs a pillar of the realm; war, magic, trade, craft, nature, and diplomacy, balancing the will of many races beneath one crown. Yet unity is fragile; ambition and faith strain the delicate order that has held for centuries. order and freedom across the realm.
Mysteries and Threats
Arcadia’s prosperity conceals a chorus of dangers and whispers. The Wolfpack, led by Gorm the Firebringer, ravages the north in fiery raids meant to test the kingdom’s strength. Beneath the crown’s shadow, rebellion brews…voices claim the Eternal Sovereign is a fiction masking a hidden cabal.
Others speak of elemental spirits in the deep forests, whose blessings twist mortals with their power, and of an artifact capable of granting mutation without loss, cursed to consume those who seek it. Hidden cities, secret societies, and prophecies of change haunt every corner of Arcadia’s legends, proof that even peace here is only another kind of storm.
The Nature of Arcadia
The realm of Arcadia stretches across every imaginable terrain. The Northern Reaches are cold and unforgiving, ruled by dwarves, frost giants, and barbarian tribes who mine precious metals and hunt the tundra’s beasts.
To the east, the Forest Kingdoms teem with elves, centaurs, and woodland spirits practicing ancient druidic magic. The southern deserts burn beneath a ruthless sun, home to nomads, lizardfolk, and powerful Stym users who forge survival from sand and flame. To the west, the Coastlands prosper through trade and invention, where halflings and humans fill ports with color, spice, and song.
Across all these lands lie ruins of civilizations long lost, their Stym-infused relics and ancient creatures haunting the edges of progress, reminders that Arcadia’s brilliance was born from the bones of the old world.
