Known formally as the Kingdom of Caelum, ...

History

Caelum was formed as a cooperative effort by the realms of Nothoi, Thalmarkin, Sint, and Old Grehk. Nobles from each of these realms, and more, came together to recolonize lands recaptured from the blighted lands during the end of the Fifth Invasion. These four realms signed a treaty to establish and regulate the cooperative effort that would form the realm.

On January 8th, 2013, Victus Draco Tanos seceded the Dutchy of Heen from the realm of Sint, officially forming Caelum.

On June 6th, 2013, the 'Edmundus Wizardry Scandal' came to light. The ex-Justicarius, Edmundus Blackmane, confessed of his ongoing attack (via. summoning scrolls) on Caelum.

Geography, Climate, and Ecology

Northern and Southern Caelum are bisected by a vast desert surrounding the fortress of Tahgalez. Caelum extends from the city of Heen and the pine and oak forests of Kif in the north, to the gently rolling plains and scattered deciduous forests of Eykfar and Mokut to the south.

All of Caelum experiences quite dramatic weather patterns.

The summers are brutally hot and dry. Many merchants refuse to cross the desert this time of year. The autumns are prone to heavy raining, and floods are a serious concern throughout the provinces. The winters are mild, but prone to lightning storms and temperatures below freezing at night. The springs are mild, and feature a mixture of light rains and cool nights.
