SUMMER

Angkar: Wet season. Precipitation is common during the late afternoon and evening hours. Vegetation grows significantly during the summer, but flooding is a danger due to the monsoons that ravage the country. The rainforest sees evenly distributed rainfall throughout the season.

Ashoka: Desert: Extremely hot and dry. Violent, heavy downpours following long dryspells. Jungle: Hot and humid with frequent, violent rainstorms.

Morrim: Relatively hot and dry, but with a chance of thunderstorms from time to time. The heat may cause forest fires.

Soto: Hot and humid, tree cover is dense while ground growth is restricted. Thunderstorms see the most amount of rainfall during the season, and it can be very windy. On occasion, there are flash floods that can destroy homes and farms built on flood plains.

WHAT IS ELENLOND?

Elenlond is an original free-form medieval fantasy RPG set on the continent of Soare and the Scattered Isles, which are located to the south in the Sea of Diverging Waters. The four chief nations of the western side of the world—Ashoka in northern Soare, Soto in western Soare, Morrim in eastern Soare, and Angkar, the largest of the Scattered Isles—continue to experience growth and prosperity since the fall of the Mianorite gods, although power struggles within the countries—or outside of them—continue to ensue.

  • CURRENT EVENTS

    Angkar: To honour the reinvigoration of the ancient city of Mondrágon, the majestic Queen Eulalia has permitted the opening of a Coliseum where people from around the world and all walks of life can test their combat skills against one another. Many have already done battle in search of honour, glory, prizes and money.

    Ashoka: In an otherwise peaceful times, Ashokans are beset with the relatively minor inconveniences of wandering undead and occasionally-aggressive giant rock worms. There has also been some controversy over the recent re-legalisation of human sacrifice.

    Morrim: Rumour has it that Emperor Leofric de Hollemark is mustering forces for a war. Though the threat from Soto’s forests has passed, the forces previously employed in watching the forest now linger at the border. Rumours also circulate of a small group that has been dispatched to make contact with the tribes of the Do’suul Mountains.

    Soto: The Sotoans have defeated the fey and liberated themselves from Méadaigh’s oppression! Preliminary efforts have been made at rebuilding the city of Madrid, which had been captured at the beginning of the war. However, the Sotoans are hindered from recovery famine. Méadaigh’s magic caused summer to persist in the Erth’netora Forest through the winter. Her power has been withdrawn and the plants die as if preparing for winter – even though it is now summer. The Sotoans must sustain off what food they can get, what creatures they can kill and what can be imported into the city from Morrim and Angkar.

    Mistakes!; Open for one unsuspecting costumer

    Mistakes! People make mistakes and they rush into situations without all facts known, make promises with the wrong people with whom they cannot deliver on, run into a no way street and do not have the ability to get out. Mistakes can take many forms, they can have many different outcomes, good or bad, but when you leave things up to chance you are asking to have a magical reaction blow up in your face. I pride myself to think that I make no mistakes, that I have complete control over any situation, but… this is untrue, the nature of people cannot be totally predicted, even my own. On that day… I made a very basic mistake, the first mistake I mentioned to you, I rushed in and I could have taken advice from my familiar first. This was not foolish of me, no... it was something else. It was those pesky… feelings…

    I had locked on my familiar’s magical signature and made my way through that vortex, the wormhole to this new world where my familiar found herself in, but alas it was not that easy. Something is wrong with this world, of that I am certain but so far I was unable to get my hands into some literature to confirm my suspicions. When I started descending, the wormhole became unstable and risking have my body torn apart I was forced to dodge around, shield myself from the crushing forces and small anti mater singularities. When I got through I had strayed too far from my creation, the sky broke when the rift was opened and I fell in the water, it was salt water and basic experience told me I was in an ocean, I remember saying. – Managed to avoid hitting the water at terminal velocity. Very well Lesiet and now to find a suitable place to think.

    There was no other suitable place to think, I was stranded in the middle of the open ocean, so the first thing I did was find how much I could cast. This world’s magic was similar to many others I had visited before, even my own, I thought this at first but soon realized there was something else, something more peculiar, like I had an apple in my hand but when I took a bite it tasted of fish, everything was equal and different, I was at lost. Sea all around me, I was adrift and realized I did not have much to work with, I could create wine, I could create smaller sized arcane objects, and so I drank wine for days while I drifted. I pondered suicide but truth be told I would rather have my chances at drifting than starting in this new world in the body of a infant. So I drifted, obviously even my perfect body felt the harsh conditions and after seven days I began to doubt if it was really worth it to cling on to life any further, the only thing that had me going was that time is always on my side.

    From the water I heard something, I heard the sound of waves crashing into something, wood, yes I it was wood. – A boat, for sure. – I remember saying and it was not before long that I saw a boat out in the distance. I was tired and weak, but I knew that once I started swimming that my body would carry me trough with the aid of adrenaline, and so I swam and soon I was spotted by the open sea fisherman. I remember the looks I was given when they brought me on deck, it seemed like turtle neck shirts were not the fashion of this world, but instead patched up clothing and lice infested hair, along with rotten teeth. So why were they giving me looks again? Not really sure, you tell me… wait don’t tell me, the answer might be too disappointing.

    It was unavoidable to be glad, things would go a lot faster by maintaining my original body, not only it’s a superior body design as far as human anatomy is concerned, it is also the most beautiful, and charm is also a tool I like to take advantage off. It was when the sword was pointing at me that I realized that the people before me where rational beings too, and people always think the same way, “how can I get more out of this situation?”, I am like that too so I took no offense when the locked me up bellow deck and later sold me of as a slave in a port town. They were only two and truth be told I could have fought them, but in my weary state odds of winning were reduced, still well above the seventy percentile, but reduced. However the deciding factor was that I needed those men to take me to land, if in the fight they would be killed I would be on a boat, but with no way of knowing how to get anywhere. I did not know how much navigation equipment the small boat had, and last thing I wanted was to gamble once again.

    From what I have learned so far I am in the port city of Zedrin, in nation that seems to have no problems with slavery. I have been a captive for fourteen days now, and so far no one was inclined to buy me, and on the other hand I have not seen a costumer I am interested in serving so at least there is that. It seems like people here are looking for the strong and muscular humans, unaware that I could probably outperform those same humans, since my body’s design is superior in every way. It did not take me too long to learn the two languages spoken in this port, the local tongue to this nation and something I would call common, like the language that seems to be spoken throughout. I have heard of concerns about a plague and things like that, but that actually works well with me, a time of death is a good time to come in and take the unclaimed spoils of the dead. Not that it is graceful, but if the need arises it is a possibility to take into further consideration.

    For now I wait here, I wait for a costumer I can actually sell myself to, I only wish they had not sold my possessions, the clothes they gave me are fairly rudimentary, that is putting it nicely, it’s just a loin cloth, how ungraceful. While the tome and the cloak are easy things to summon back, I need my amulet, pen and glasses, I need to find and reclaim those possessions as soon as I get out of here. I saw those who bought them, I will find them with ease. Then there’s the dagger, that buffoon is using it idly, that blade is older than me… It annoys me, but I should not let these feelings cloud my judgment. I have had enough of that and look at where it brought me. I also could do with more style, so I suppose that will be my first order of business, get new clothes, these ones are, are… Well, well, well! What do we have here? My slaver is busy talking with that lady of the street, good he will be distracted. – Greetings! Let me poke your grey matter for a moment. – I point and lure the costumer in with my elegant finger, just a little closer. I won’t bite. - Ever had the opportunity of a lifetime in your grasp and let it slide past? Well, try not to let it happen this time around, it stands before you now!
