The Treasures of the Sea

Created by

The setting of the Kingdom of Man and the Hebrides, for 5th Edition Ars Magica. Setting material by Christopher Gibbon (Hermes Portral Issue 14/15).   Magic from the world is disappearing, and magi of the covenant of Scappa Flow abandon their former covenant in search of a new place to call home. The three surrounding tribunals of Loch Leglean, Stonehenge and Hibernia have long contested for ownership of this small, but magically powerful islands, and young magi settling there will be thrown into a hotbed of both mundane and Hermetic plotting and power-struggles.   In the 13th century, the Hebridean islands of Skye and Lewis, together with the Isle of Man are one kingdom, separate from the rest of England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland. These islands have been ruled by the Norse for hundreds of years and, while still culturally and historically connected to the rest of the British Isles, are just as closely related to the Kingdom of Norway. The coming decades are tumultuous for this small kingdom, as it survives three civil wars, and is fought over by England and Scotland.
