Centuries ago, Cercimon was a naval power to rival Ardatril or Exonia. The sailors of Cercimon were the first to rise up against the yoke of Ardatril’s empire, and in retaliation, the tieflings burned all the nation's ships and forced the survivors to swear never to raise a navy again. For most Cercimoni, this long-ago promise has turned into a cultural taboo against the salt water, but some scions of the old naval families carry the rebellious spirits of their ancestors and become pirates.
In Cercimon, the Captains’ Council consists of the descendants of the old merchant captains; they reign together in place of the old royal line, which was snuffed out completely by Ardatril. Noble ranks still exist in Cercimon, but the title of Captain is above them all.
