To understand Stavenn, one must understand the unique history that makes it
what it is today. Founded by Kalika Aisling way back before The Awakening, it
has ancient roots as the dominant city of Aetherius. As the first prophetess of
Aesir, God of War, she had a clear vision; that of a unified and trained
populace with which to control the world through military action. She fled the
stagnant township of Caanae with a small group of followers, and began the work
of uniting the feuding tribes of the southern region.
Among the original tribes were a mountainous folk, who tapped the resources of
their mountains to produce bronze and steel instruments of war. The valley
adjacent to the mountainous region housed a large village of fearsome warriors.
They were a previously nomadic tribe of gypsies, hardened by generations of
traveling through the lands. Upon making their home in the valley, the
mountainous people waged war with them, and they adapted quickly and fiercely
to a truculent existence. The modern city of Stavenn is situated on the meeting
grounds of these two tribes' ancestral lands, with part of the city extending
up into the adjoining mountain.
As time went on, people from distant cities flocked to the city of Stavenn,
seeking refuge from the hordes that ravaged the lands. They set up just on the
interior of the main gates, making their little slice of Stavenn a diverse area
in both architecture and culture.
