CORMANTHOR-YASTEHANYE
'Place of Great Promise'- this is what Cormanthor means. It was the original name of the Empire that still stands upon the lands of Samandar but whose residents and scenery have changed drastically over the ages. It was founded by a distinguished group of royal elven children chosen to bring their different cultures together in hopes of keeping warfare away from their former homes and families. The original goal failed, but the addition of Yastehanye; meaning Honored Exile; in memory of the sacrifice made originally of the Royals was added to the name of the land.
These Elves and the Old Gods developed the ages old realm 'game' known as C.H.E.S.S - Coronals Hond Es'Caerta Seldarine Saloh�Cint�Nias. One can learn much more regarding the origins and game, through the tome named Historical Lore: The Origin of C.H.E.S.S, which is available in various areas of the realm. One of the original settlers of Cormanthor still dwells within a Volcanic Cavern. Although he is quite different now, he is treated with deep reverence by current residents who offer gifts and keep him fed- normally living/fresh folks as sacrifice.
Many of the residents are of the darker side in most opinions. Vampires, Liches, and Mummies make a large contingent of the population among many others. There are several residents of note. There is an ancient Banshee. Another is the ancient but youthful Princess Dur Nantar who is directly related to one of the original royals. Her twin brother has a totem within Vandor Parlu. There is the emperor of the Bastion. The single Priest in the only Temple of the area. To whom the temple is dedicated to, many speculate but none know.
The land has no single ruler. The land is very much a cruel one for any finding themselves as a slave or prisoner, or worse, a meal at the Kinship Kaphae.
There are no laws. There are no social ladders.
The residents are free to do as they wish.
