SolaraCAPITAL - OTHER CITY'S - RULERSHIP - RELIGION - MILITARYHome of the Morâi, the isle is located far south in the archipelago, covered with dense jungles, no sign of any farming or herding, in the southwest of the isle a still active volcano is located, it is a magic place for the Morâi. The Morâi settlements are located in natural harbors protected from enemies and the weather by the dense reefs outside the northern and eastern coasts. CapitalNou-Kef, 1.200 inh. The single largest Morâi settlement known on the isles. A beautiful city located deep in the jungles at the center of the isle. To use the jungle as shelter the Morâi build their houses in the middle of the jungle without cutting down so many trees. The houses are mostly made from stone one or two stories high. In Nou-Kef is the a great temple built, 12 meters high and hence one of the largest buildings in the entire archipelago, it is very skillfully made and has been able to withstand the earthquakes during the past 1000 years or so. One could think that Nou-Kef, situated by the trees are a cheerful and beautiful place but that is not entirely true. Most of the buildings are made from a black glasslike volcano stone found nearby and not much light seeping through the trees above. If one can look beside these facts it can be beautiful, the stone-buildings are artfully made with skills not even known to mankind Other City'sSouv, 600 inh. RulershipThe Witch-King Nocara rules all the Morâi settlements on the isles, he is ancient, been living on the isles since the time before the Humans and Orch's arrived here. ReligionUnlike Human Sorcerers the Morâi don't worship H'thol, instead they have made their own connections with other powerful Demon Lords, most of them unknown to humans, although these lords don't interact with this world like H'thol have done but they do send their minions to the aid of their followers. O'hra, King of Fire, most common deity of the Warrior casts, since the very survival of the people consist in piracy and warfare he is also considered a sort of harvest god too. The temple located at the mountain is solely dedicated to O'rha. N'khef, King of Shadows, the deity of all spell-users, he is a god without a shape or form, and in control of the Ćther, the source of all magic forces. He is one of the lords of the Shadow Worlds. I'viri, Daughter of the Oceans. The worship to I'viri is one thing that prove that humans have much influence over the isles, this is a very new religion for the Morâi and there are no temples, it is kept a secret by her followers of the Dark Spirits. MilitaryAbout half the population or more are skilled sailors or marines, due to the lack of old and children most are capable to wield weapons. Both men and women serve on the boats as marines and pirates. |
