About

Flag of Valsk
Flag of Valsk

Valsk is the northern-most city of the Kingdom and accordingly, only the hardiest people survive and somehow flourish in the harsh and snowy peaks. The culture of this stronghold against the elements therefore greatly values strength, bravery and loyalty; the men and women alike are tough, honour-bound and give no quarter to rubbish or bossy foreigners. Valski pride themselves on three things; their mead, their military and their smithing.

Valsk’s isolation from the mainland has left it unchanged by time and deeply traditional, causing its culture and language to diverge from the rest of the Kingdom. Old superstition is deeply embedded in the minds of the locals, and greatly influences their lifestyle. As a historically and still predominantly human city, this attitude extends to all elves in the form of mistrust and even discrimination in some cases. Utterance of the name Atros is considered a grave sin.

Guilds

The Helvarg
Leader
Status
None
Open (no base classes)

Valsk’s highest military elite, only the worthiest are admitted to the Helvarg - with the expectation of utmost dedication. They carry out the most dangerous expeditions; protecting the borders and hunting wyverns in peacetime, and leading the counterattack should the city be assaulted. It is comprised of three divisions - a flying corps on perytons, a fierce assault division, and finally a small medical unit.
