The StormClaw Empire
The 12th day of Spring 979 ASC
The Stormclaw Empire is a vast and powerful realm that dominates the southwestern coast of the continent of Verdonia, renowned for its military might, rich history, and intricate web of noble houses. Ruled by the ambitious and formidable House Stormclaw from the capital city of Lindaphal, the empire is a tapestry of diverse cultures, traditions, and landscapes. Its territories span six major regions—each ruled by influential vassal houses that uphold the empire's laws while managing their own affairs, contributing to the empire's wealth, and protecting its borders. The empire's strength lies in its ability to maintain order across a wide variety of peoples, from the swamp-dwelling hobbits of the Ook Swamps to the mountain-dwelling dwarves of the Mykal Mountains. As a land steeped in both magic and history, the Stormclaw Empire stands as a beacon of power and unity, yet it is also a place where ambition, rivalry, and ancient traditions constantly shape its ever-evolving story.
