Please consider using Template:Infobox RegionData instead, which automatically fetches the relevant and always-correct data from the game engine itself. Use this template for historical pages where the region data is no longer available (e.g. the sunk south islands).

To convert, use the "image" property - the first number is the world-id, the second the region-id.

Realm / Duchy Virovene / Muspelheim

The city of Muspelheim was long an economic center for all of Springdale. Muspelheim has profited being on the main road from Nifelhold to Aegir and became one of the largest and richest cities of Springdale. Within Muspelheim is the Crown of Virovene, an inn known for its high nobility frequenting its beds.

Currently, the large fortress in the center of the city is being restored by the current Duke, Cato De La Fere. All the levels of fort have been restored with his family crest crafted onto every archway and every gate.

The reason for this is because Muspelheim was the old capitol of the lost realm of Virovene. This realm was destroyed by daimons, with the people scattered through the world, long before the founding of The Empire Springdale and the creation of modern Virovene. However, the fates conspired, leading to a descendant of the old Virovene monarchy currently ruling over the city today.

But on the fourth level of the fortress the design changes in two ways.

First, to honour De La Fere's lost realmof old Virovene there is a De La Fere family chest (blue with golden lilies)and name Virovene crafted into the main gate.

Second, next to the gate there is a copper memorial plate inside the wall. There are names:

  • Charles De La Fere, last ruler of Old Virovene.
  • The Lords of Muspelheim: Marquess Tye von Snipe and Viscount Kole Kalmar.
  • The Knights of Muspelheim who helped and supported the building of the wall:

Lady Evangelina Driscol, Lady Kurecalle Kestrel, Alister Defender, Terus Dragonite, Ferber DeRouen, Landro Darlor Lawrence and Randemicos Pope.

The city seceded to form Virovene after Emperor Neel broke his half of the oath to the duke to protect his lands. The Duke saw how Emperor Neel failed to protect the rest of Springdale and sought to protect his own duchy from such tragic failures. Thus when New Virovene was founded Muspelheim once again became the realms capital.
