Thulsoma is bordered by sea in the north and the river called torrents breath by the south. Its western side is field and from the tower of Storms keep all can be seen for miles and miles. No access is available from the eastern sea for it is in perpetual storm. Storms keep is always wet and dreary. The natives of Storms keep are mostly addicted to a strange substance that they call 'Bloodmoon' it makes for a rather manic type place to be and when the moon is high many of the inhabitants of Thulsoma can also be seen to be acting strange from eating so much of the substance. Thulsomans are marked by their always red lips and teeth. It is also fashionable to have ones face painted stark white like a moon with lips exaggerated red.

Thulsomans are artists and eccentrics, they are fiercely independent and spend almost all their time involved in artistic endeavour. Their Fortress is covered in all manner of wicker art and flying silk like kites and stilt walkermen, music that has never been heard floats through the fortress courtyard. It is very much like a circus, a party where none sleep. Where drink and licentious behavior spills out on the narrow streets and central courtyard. The surrounding lands are equally bizarre and there is many strange sound machines and whirling things howling in the wind to scare off trespassers. The entire population takes create joy in mock military displays and paegentry. The soldiers are very individualistic and wear colored clothing , with weapons that look more like ornate ritual weapons than actual weapons of war... But, anyone who thought that would be wrong, for the swords men in Storms keep are exceptionally well trained and serious about the defense of Storms keep.

Thulsomans follow the Sanguis Astroism, but because of the storms and temperamental weather and difficulty in reading the stars in the north, their ideas and perception of the stars are different. Because of the Bloodmoon influence on 'Somans many will attribute it to the maddening star, they do not worship it separately they do acknowledge its nature more than many who do not take the substance. The rise of the maddening star merely marks a time when more 'Bloodmoon' will be taken than other times. Thulsoma is known as 'Bloodmoon' by anyone who was born and grew up in Port Raviel in the south of Dwilight. Bloodmoon is the aphrodisiac opiate refined from the palm tree's of the south realm and chewed by the natives of said region. King Glaumring Apasurian introduced this type of culture to the northerners.

Thulsoma was created by a group of colonists from Virovene during winter of the sixth year of Dwilight.

Some would mistake madness for random acts of insanity, others for creativity, artists and violence mayhem and unpredictability. Madness is not a state, it is merely an acknowledgement of our own reality. Do not think that you do not know what madness is, for even we in Thulsoma do not know ourselves why we are mad. Structure and law is madness, for only would a mad man think that they could create order out of all this chaos. A sane man sees order and a madman will see chaos, or is it they are both mad and see absolutely nothing at all but their own delusions, illusions conclusions moods wishes and plots to fruition. Thulsoma was formed out of the madness of war, it is the child of a barren womb, its peoples only desire is to make the ultimate escape... Through the catacombs of the mind.

Thulsoma is bordered by sea in the north and the river called torrents breath by the south. Its western side is field and from the tower of Storms keep all can be seen for miles and miles. No access is available from the eastern sea for it is in perpetual storm. Storms keep is always wet and dreary.

Thulsomans are artists and eccentrics, they are fiercely independent and spend almost all their time involved in artistic endeavour. Their Fortress is covered in all manner of wicker art and flying silk like kites and stilt walkermen, music that has never been heard floats through the fortress courtyard. It is very much like a circus, a party where none sleep. Where drink and licentious behavior spills out on the narrow streets and central courtyard. The surrounding lands are equally bizarre and there is many strange sound machines and whirling things howling in the wind to scare off trespassers. The entire population takes create joy in mock military displays and paegentry. The soldiers are very individualistic and wear colored clothing , with weapons that look more like ornate ritual weapons than actual weapons of war... But, anyone who thought that would be wrong, for the swords men in Storms keep are exceptionally well trained and serious about the defense of Storms keep.

Thulsomans are followers of all the stars in the hierarchy of Sanguis Astroism, for only a madman would acknowledge that there is only one star in the sky. And only one that guides the many moods of mankind, one must not always rely on madness, for that would be mad and that would mean sane as sanity implies predictability, so all the stars must be followed. Their king has been accused of heresy, this is not something to be taken lightly. Yet, one must ask why and where and about the stars, study ever so closely. For as each of the three stars is united each star is able to speak if one listens ever so closely. Ultimately the holy prophet in Corsanctum is the great voice of reason and is greatly respected in far and insignificant Thulsoma. It is every Thulsomans dream to visit Corsanctum flying out of ones head and under the influence of bloodmoon.

Dress and physical appearance of a Thulsoman Your average Thulsoman will look as anyone else will, a mix of Morek blood a dash of Virovene for northern spice a bit of Springdale, a smidge of Melodian with Shadovarian and Terran thrown in for good measure, for it is said that the King did travel when in his youth. Native Port Ravielians will be known to sleep with anything that moves and care not for skin or cultural custom. Thulsomans will paint their faces white and their mouths will be dyed red from eating of the Bloodmoon fruit in vast quantities.
