Dwilight (a.k.a. West Continent) is the first complete BattleMaster world map created by the player community. It is also the first (and currently only) Serious Medieval Atmosphere game world.

OOC Note: This island is a testing island (as is Beluaterra), so expect to see bugs as new features are tested and improved.

History

A short summary of important events in Dwilight's history that significantly affected a major realm or the continent. Neutrality is generally strove for. In time, older summaries are archived, and only the more current accounts are kept on this page.

The Springdale Secessions

a.k.a. The War of Secession/Independence
After a long struggle in the Empire of Springdale, the Duke of Muspelheim, Cato De La Fere, seceded the duchy and formed the theocratic realm of Virovene dedicated to the Blood Stars, crowning himself Kaiser. Springdale saw this secession in their own borders as an act of open rebellion, and quickly declared war on the fledgling realm. However, Springdale did not count upon the support of the other realms dedicated to the Blood Stars: Morek and Astrum. Morek promised military support to defend the faith, whilst Astrum still worked for a peaceful solution. The war has become known of the War of Secession among the people of Springdale, whilst the peoples of Virovene and Morek refer to it as the War of Independence. Soon after the war began Duke Edward Raiva seceded the Duchy of Aegir from Springdale to form the tyranny of the Raivan Empire, with the intent to remain neutral to the Springdale/Virovene conflict. Soon the region of White Plains switches allegiance to Morek, cutting the capital of Springdale off from the rest of the realm. Eventually the Duchy of Springdale itself left the Empire of Springdale, joining the realm of Morek. This makes Morek the largest realm on the continent with 19 regions and 80 nobles. Springdale is left with only one one region: it's capital of Nifelhold.

Victory For Virovene, The end of an Empire

The War of Succession ended after a long siege by Virovene of Springdale's capital Nifelhold. The city held out for many months, taking a tremendous effort on behalf of Virovene to break the siege, push past its walls and take the stronghold itself. This taking of Springdale's final region meant that, after its long history, the one time greatest realm on Dwilight has been ended, how the mighty have fallen.
