History: Bloom was an important world, System, and Sector in the Dragon’s Head Nebula under the Fabians. Settled by Tutha of the First fleet, it became a border region with the Tutha of Kaledon after the Fabian Conquest, and even saw the crowning of a Fabian Emperor of the Dominion.
After the Fabian Withdrawal, the Sector fell on hard times, like all former Fabian sectors in Drala. The systems of Bloom united into small warring kingdoms of Fabian Tutha, and hired many Furse Warlords, and warriors as they fled from the Skoll, and fall of the Old Ruins. The Furse aided in the defense of the systems of Bloom from other Fabian Tutha kingdoms, as well as from the Tutha of Kaledon who had begun to convert to the Fabian Faith.
When Holderness, and Skyhold fell to the Old Blood of Taryn Ice Aegis, many Old Blood Furse settled, and conquered the systems of Bloom, and formed their own kingdoms until a cadet branch of Ice Aegis, Jon Farsight Ice created the first major kingdom of Bloom, although never managed to conquer the Bloom System itself. In time the Bloom System would fall to House Farsight, and become the capital of the kingdom. The Kingdom of Holderness, and the Kingdom of Bloom ould unite with the conquest of the Kingdom of Bloom, and the creation of the Kingdom of Umbria, named for the Kingdom from the Old Ruins of Furse Space, and from which many of ancestors had come from in the Bloom and Holderness Sectors.
The Kingdom of Umbria would change hands several times between Ice Aegis, and Farsight Ice, with Foster Farsight Ice being proclaimed the 5th High King of the Old Blood in Drala, as well as the first major King to convert to the Fabian Faith, and from which the spread of the Fabian Faith among the rest of the kingdoms arose.
For a time the Kingdom of Umbria was the most powerful, wealthy, religous, and cultural leader of the Old Blood Kingdoms. That power would fall to the Kingdom of Warwick over the years, and would never truly be reclaimed, although the Kingdom of Umbria maintained itself as a power in Drala, and not just within the Old Blood Kingdoms. As the Old Blood united, it became one of the four main Kingdoms of the Old Blood, until it’s fall to the Great Savage Host, lead by the children of Rothgar.
King Rothgar ‘The Lost King’ Ring Aegis is informed while raiding outside Furse Space, that the lords of Furse Space wish to proclaim him as High King, and restore the Empire, a feat that his own ancestors had come close to doing, but never achieved. He sets course back to Furse Space, but his starship suffers failures, and the Ship is found in the Dragon’s Head Nebula by the King of Umbria, and Rothgar is captured, and shortly thereafter killed.
Many of Rothgar’s children learn of their father’s death, and the manner of it. They gather their forces throughout Furse Space, and launch the Great Savage Host to Drala. The Dream of a reunited Furse Space ends with Rothgar, and the destruction of the the Old Blood Kingdoms of Drala takes it’s place. The Kingdom of Umbria is the first to fall, but not the last. The King of Umbria is said to die a gruesome death at the hands of the Children of Rothgar.
The systems of the Kingdom of Umbria would become ruled by the Furse of the Great Savage Host, although some Old Blood lords would maintain power, such as the Umbria Royal House of Ice Aegis in Skyhold. It became the strongest of the Furse Kingdoms to rise in Drala, and the last to be conquered by the Kingdom of Daxholm which allowed for the creation of the Commonwealth of Drala.
The Bloom Sector is made up of more Furse lords than the Holderness Sector which was able to fend off the Furse attacks better than most. Even today under the Commonwealth, many lords can trace their ancestors back to the Great Savage Host, and the Furse warlords who had conquered the systems, and ruled long after the destruction of the Great Savage Host.
Bloom is made up of four great systems, and dozens of minor subsystems. The Systems of Axeholm, Grimsly, Kobal, and Bloom are the leading systems in the sector, with Bloom and Axeholm on the Northern Fabian Gateway Network. System-lord Brand ruled as Lord of Bloom for many years, and his daughter married King Oswald. After his death fighting Furse raiders, his son and heir was arrested and killed by King Oswald and the Bloom System was granted to Tristin Weylin, but not the title of Lord of Bloom. Since than House Weylin has grown in power as the most powerful lord in the sector with the lordships of both Bloom and Grimsly.
