The Tidemakers

The Tidemakers are two great sea monsters that control the tides of each of Eilendor's four seas; the Agean Sea, the Tuun, the Lanasus, and the An Numdir.  One of these get leviathans resides in each sea, controlling the tides and waves.  Luthros resides in the Ageaen and Tuun, Lortho controls the Lanasus and the An Numdir. Luthros is gray-blue, and four-eyed, while Lortho is two-eyed, and green.  The two Tidemakers live in the farthest away corners of the oceans, moving up and down and smacking the water with their tentacles to create waves.  Ocean tides are caused when the Tidemakers inhale water, then exhale.  The Tidemakers were discovered in the late Second Age by the Felldarn airshipman Annan Maonson, in his voyage to prove the world is flat.

Naldor, Kingdom of the Steward.

Naldor, one of the largest human kingdoms, lies on the coast of the Aganen Sea, north of the Rhuan Steppes and west of the Numunor Wilds.  Naldor is a land of men and chivalry, knights roam the country, lords watch over their lands as peasants and serfs work the fields, and ruler of all Naldor is the steward.  Many centuries ago, in 1349, not long after the fall of the Thirvilis Empire, a small kingdom of humans came across the Numunor Wilds to the Aegeanen coast, and Ellro, the founder of Naldor, built a tower, which still stands today in the Western March, to watch the surrounding settled countryside.  In 1365, an orc hoard appeared on the southern border of Naldor, so Ellro lead an army out to meet them, but during the battle, Ellro was cut down.  Ellro is the epitome of Naldorin society; he was strong, good in battle, chivalrous, fair, and just.  Naldorin society is based around feudalism and chivalry, and the king is a very important figure, so important that, in 2891, when the last Naldorin king, King Fanhorn the 2nd, died in battle, and he had no heir, the line of kings broke, petty kings userped the throne, but they all failed.  So instead of kings, the position of steward was made, he would rule the land with limited power, a temporary ruler until a king came.  But no king came to claim the throne, the stewards continued to rule Naldor.
Naldorins are tall, about five foot eight to six feet, usually have darker hair, and lighter eyes.  The Naldorin flag is a black shield, with a white Ellro's Tower, and there are two black stars on either side of the shield, one represents the steward the other the king, on a white background.  Naldor is known most for it's guildhalls; grand buildings where guilds of lords gathered.  Guildhalls are walled in buildings, they are mostly a vast atrium, with a massive table in the center, there are often separate wings of the building for storage, sleeping quarters, and kitchens.  The Guards of the Crown are Naldor's staple unit, they wield massive shields and long, one-handed swords, they also carry long spears.  Guards of the Crown guard the Throne Hall, The Hall of Honor, and the current steward, they rarely go off and fight in a battle, they protect the city Avard.

The Fall of Muldorn.

After the gods chained Nulcarn to a rock in a far corner of the world, there was a time of conflict among the pantheon, there was strife among the races of Eilendor.  Before another open war between the Vanir and Aesdir gods, they all gathered at Celest Val, to discuss peace.  Ardin, the Father, proposed the forming of a pact; the gods could no longer live in Creation, thus none could threaten or attack other's followers.  If any god broke this compact, their immortality was forfeit.  All the gods agreed to the Pact, Vanir and Aesdir.  A sword was forged by the stars to celebrate the Pact, called the Deaus Ral, or Gods' Bane to most.  But Muldorn, god of frost, terror, and undeath, broke the Pact and entered the world.  He gathered his followers, and loyal kingdoms, he made his most dangerous servant, Bel-Gorun the Tyrant.  Muldorn destroyed civilization after civilization, uprooting and enslaving races and throwing Eilendor into an ice age.  One god, Boleras, deity of the sun, was chosen to come down and challenge Muldorn, their fight destroyed mountains, shattered kingdoms, and smashed great gorges in the ground.  Finally, at the foot of the Mountain of Dusk, Muldorn killed his opposite, the god of warmth, and life, and took his heart.  Boleras, besides being the god of the sun, was the deity of the light elves, who fell into chaos and bloody wars because of his death.  The sun set that day, it was a sad sunset, many thought the sun would not rise again.  And it might not of, but followers of Boleras prayed to the spirit of the deceased deity and to the sun which he sustained.  The sun came up at its time, slow and sad though.  Because Muldorn broke the Pact and slew a fellow god, the Gods' Bane yearned for his ichor.  There was a prophecy, made by an eldar monk, which states that the "Fallen God shall reside in the circle of runes, in the place which lies in ruins, and a bastard prince shall take up the silver sword, and shall come against the Rotting One Who Is Immortal, in the fell lands.  And the fate of much shall rest on the prince's shoulders."

Celest Val, the Divine Mountain.

A mountain in the midst of the Illithis mountains, Celest Val was the base of the gods as they created the world, now it serves as their meeting hall.  Normally, no mortal is allowed to enter, the hall is guarded by Belidon the Uncorupt, an immortal paladin, and servant to Ardin, but exceptions are made during, emergency meetings and Neasratide annual councils,  Brotherhood of Adirus, the Sisterhood of Naltirinen, the Order of Tyron, and other divine disciples are permitted.  Celest Val is on of the tallest mountains in the world, it's peak is forever covered in ice and snow and shrouded in clouds, the mountain itself is mostly open rock, except at the very bottom, where there are a few trees.  The meeting hall, as described by Serentus when he first went inside was, "And the hall itself was gilded in gold, the many pillars against the wall were covered in silver, diamonds, zircons, and pearls, so the whole hall, when lit by torches, glowed much like a sun. The whole hall measured 50 cubits.  The floor was polished marble, of the whitest kind, which reflected the ceiling, which was an accurate map of the nighttime sky, though it was much more like the starry sky than just a painting.  The great, polished oak table, which covered most of the hall, has a great throne for every of the 20 deities, and a great, silver, mithral, and moonstone throne at the northern head of the table for Ardin, Creator of All."  When Hadmodeus fell, and gave up his immortality, he was not permitted to enter or step foot on Celest Val, his followers, and the Necromancer of the Sacred Skull.

Darath.

Darath sat in the corner of the small, dingy tavern, his dirty, travel-worn boots resting on the table.  The barmaid brought him his beer, he searched himself for his purse, but couldn't find it.  He stopped, he took of one of his boots, and fished out a few silver coin.
"There you are, Miss."  He handed her the coins, she then left.  After a few beers, his appointment came over to him, having just entered the bar. His appointment, Wil, sat down opposite him.
"So this is what you've taken to doing, old man."  Wil said.
"I've been looking around the world, seeing what's new, what's still here."  He replied.
"A storm is brewing, Darathoden, something is not right with the Gods, a great conflict is coming.  And the Brotherhood must be ready for whatever comes.  And your sitting in a shabby bar, drinking beer"  Wil said.
"I'm still contimplating of the coming danger, Wiloden, I've felt it to, a certain energy in the air."
"Well, the Brotherhood is having a council, but Master Adirus is at Mt. Celest Deaus."  Wil replied.  Darath looked sadly at his beer.
"I suppose I can take it along."  They both left the tavern.

The Brotherhood of Adirus.

An order of wizards, who are disciples of the god of magic and knowledge, Adirus.  When the world was young, and the gods walked among their people, Adirus went to Mt. Nanaran and gave advice and wisdom to the nearby Belannor humans and elf pack.  Serentus, a failed sorcerer, came to the god, who was in a disguise, and asked for advice, Adirus told the man to follow him.  Serentus told him he would only bow down to him if he could out match Serentus's magic.  Adirus robbed Serentus of his powers and revealed himself as a god.  The sorcerer fled in terror, but returned after some years and bowed before Adirus, saying he would be his disciple until death, so Adirus returned his powers.  Serentus, now called Adiroden, "Chosen of Adirus", built a tower at the foot of the mountain, and became the first follower of the god.  Many decades later, when Adiroden was in his early hundreds, a young man, named Darrion, came to the Mountain of Adirus, where he still resided in his tower, seeking redemption.  Darrion was a wizard, so after some years of working with Adiroden, he was made the second disciple of Adirus.  The Brotherhood grew from there, up to seventeen members, Adiroden still being the head disciple.  But then one left and died, four died of curses, three crossed over to dark sorcery, and two died in battle.  The remaining seven; Adiroden, Darath, Asvin, Durthlen, Sunorem, Ulkor, and Wil, continued on as the Brotherhood of Adirus.
