The Holy State of Corsanctum
Corsanctum is a theocracy on Dwilight dedicated to Sanguis Astroism. It was formed on February 20, 2009, when Prophet Mathurin Hossenfeffer seceded the city of Mimer from Astrum.
The Founding of Corsanctum
After many years of dispute between the theocracies of Sanguis Astroism, the Holy Prophet Mathurin Hossenfeffer decided that a new theocracy needed to be founded as a focus for the faith. After many months of hot debate it was decided that the Mimer Peninsula would be an ideal location for its central placement. Regions were acquired from Astrum and the Raivan Empire which formed the core of the realm. The most important part of this realm is its capital, Mimer City, Holding the High Temple of the Stars, the Palace of the Prophet and The High Tower of the Magistratum.
The Government of Corsanctum
Corsanctum is a Theocracy of Sanguis Astroism, founded by the Holy Prophet himself and so politics are closely entwined with wishes of the Stars. Since the Holy Prophet left to assume his life of seclusion and meditation Corsanctum is watched over by Regent Medugnatos Stormcrow. He is aided by Treasurer Goren II, High Inquisitor Marius and General Kamin. They are further supported by the 'Council of Corsanctum' and most issues are discussed there. The Council is free to join for any nobles that wish to.
The Military of Corsanctum
Corsanctum currently has one active army - The Corsanctum's Shield, sponsored by Lord Branthorpe Silverbear. It's mandate is to protect Corsanctum and her inhabitants from the monsters and undead that ravage the wilds of Dwilight. The Unterlands to the south are known as Woodling breeding grounds and many of the peasants slaughtered by the monsters become restless undead. The Shield is trying to clear the nests and help repair these regions. Newcomers might like to read the Corsanctum/Guide to recruitment and operations

The Merge with Aurora
When Aurora could no longer sustain herself,due many Monster attacks, and abandonment by many nobles seeking to escape the Realms fall her nobles turned to Corsanctum. In July 2010 Mamaroneck and Weinschenk switched their allegiance. It was agreed that Corsanctum would soon march into Unterstrom to secure Aurora's capital but the hordes of Woodlings in the Unterlands hindered the army and as yet the banner of Corsanctum has not yet been flown from the ramparts of the city. The Morek Empire disbuted Corsanctum's claims to Aurora's old lands and relations worsened dramatically, with Corsanctum nearly invaded by a fellow Theocracy. After surviving that threat Corsanctum is working on honouring her promise to Aurora.
A Modern Corsanctum
Corsanctum is always ready to welcome new nobles, from distant lands or those newly come of age. There are constant monster and undead threats to be dealt with, especially in the untamed reagions to the south and so Corsanctum offers the chance to quickly gain recogntion, glory and honour in the name of the Holy Bloodstars. Initiative and devotion are rewarded and there is always a project to lend your sword, pen or voice to.
The Druid Rebellion
The fall of Aurora was due mainly in part to a group of rogue Druids. Who wanted to free the Unterlands from the influence of the Blood Stars. They emassed a large hoard of Monster's called by Native Unterlanders 'Woodlings' because of their resemblance of forest trees. The Druids quickly assaulted Unterstrom Vorsadt, their first attempts were unsuccessful however due to the efforts of Thaur Metsamees and Zirena Khan. however The Druids were eventually able to wear down the defenders and take the towns-land, which marked the beginning of the end of Aurora, and the true Start of what is now commonly refereed to as the Druid wars. Corsanctum now battles the Druids hoards daily in an effort to retake the Unterlands, in the first stage's of the war the Woodling hoard took more and more ground. The fighting so fierce it took the life of one of Auroras Heroes, one of many to fall to the Druid armies. Eventually thanks to the leadership of Alana Deytheur and Aglovale Ap Rhodri the Shield have been able to slow the Woodlings to a stand still and are slowly retaking ground. The war rage's on however but if Corsanctum can continue on it's course and keep the path to the capital well defend there is no reason that Corsanctum well not able to push the Druids all the way back to the Unterlands. the campaign is further troubled due to the Druids continued us of propaganda and leading those away from the Stars, a problem Corsanctum must deal with if it hopes to not share the same fate as it's sister realm Aurora.
