A man by the name of Hernan Vlastos, who was the adopted son of Leonardo Vlastos one of the founders of the resettlement of Caelia in the south of the Korvassa was ethnically tied with the tribe of the Hyspian peoples, united with one of his cousins Caelius Ramnesius Vlastos by chance, the man by the name of Caelius Ramnesius Vlastos was the adopted son of Latinius Vlastos, another founder of the resettlement of Caelia. Leonardo Vlastos was in contact with a man by the name of Antonio de Medina whom was to be granted land by the Free Trade State of Sutica upon the arrival to Almaris. Caelius was a narcissist with the belief that he was the best swordsman in the world for he "Fought" the Inferi under his father serving in a prissy management job under the Caelian Military. Antonio de Medina upon receiving his land on Almaris called his land Osanora and gave titles to Leonardo and Caelius . Upon Caelius and Leonardo receiving their titles, brought the mass amount of Caelian peoples to the town, from all houses; especially those of house Phokas, Vellina, Ramnesius and Vlastos; by this time there were 3 distinct peoples living in Osanora that of the Caelians, the Hyspians, and the Osanorans themselves. Time would pass as ethnic tensions soon engulfed the town of Osanora; the Hyspians had been exiled, Caelius had been deposed from his seat in the Legislature of Osanora and the Leader of the city's Military, and was quickly reinstated after an uproar was received by the Duke from the Caelian peoples. During this time Caelius had declared himself the "Praefectus" of the Caelian peoples. A group of Hyspians following the Cannonist faith returned to the city to replace the Pantheon of Osanora with their religion's church; Caelius soon radicalized the houses of Vlastos, Ramnesius, Velina, Phokas, Octavius and Carnera into a plot to overthrow the baron of Osanora, three men hearing of the Baron himself hosting a night at the Cantina soon notified Caelius, this was the day they would strike. When that day came Caelius, Marcus Octavius, and Leo Phokas would go into the Cantina where Baron Antonio de Medina was serving drinks, blocked the doors, drew their swords and demanded the drinks in the bar be handed over to them. Quickly noticing the threat, Antonio de Medina Threw a pan at the leader Caelius, Knocking him out instantly. A fight broke out which caused a commotion to which many men arrived, Leo Phokas was chased out of the Cantina by Carlos Mendez and his brother; by then the Baron had slit the throat of Caelius killing him. As Leo Phokas had ran out of sight of the Cantina he had turned to fight the two pursuers which lead to Leo becoming victorious over them. Leo began running back to the Cantina. By the time he returned he noticed Antonio de Medina standing over the corpse of Caelius. The bloodlust overcoming Antonio upon seeing Leo Phokas swung his blade at him; the attack was parried by a weakened man by the name of Dim, to which Leo was able to land a large strike over Antonio cutting open his chest and his stomach killing him. At the end of the night at the Cantina two men lay dead; the leader of the Caelians and the leader of Osanora, Praefectus Caelius Ramnesius Vlastos, and Baron Antonio de Medina. At this time the ethnic tensions heightened; with Hyspians and Osanorans up in arms against the Caelians who still lived in the city. Leo Phokas declared himself the new Praefectus, appointing a body guard by the name of Arcadius Ramnesius. Leo Phokas and Arcadius traveled hiring Mercenaries from Norland and Haense to attempt to take over Osanora; the two returned to Osanora entering the town square to see a group of five Hyspians block the entrance to town, among them were priests and Carlos Mendez. A harsh assortment of words were flown by both parties leading to young Felipe de Medina the adopted son of Antonio de Medina to run off in a crying fit, mounting his horse and riding off to Sutica. This conflict lasted a long while, to which the Sutican raid bells were rung and Felipe de Medina returned with the Sutican guard; the guard pronounced that the two men were to be arrested. Leo Phokas began spouting words, in an insane attempt being cornered by 14 men; the Sutican guard ended up killing Leo Phokas and his body guard Arcadius in the Osanoran town center. After this, the Caelians were expected to leave; the many men and women packed up their belongings and were forced outside the city. A mass exodus brought them across the waters to the northern continent, the Caelian peoples were off to a land that had been described to them and many had visited on trade missions before; a land by the name of Vaelya. They were not but half way to the city when they started hearing troubling news by the people they came across. The City of Vaelya had been burned down by raiders. The Caelians, knowing of their history and proud of it decided then and there to rebuild the land of their fathers in the lands of Almaris; they stopped where they were, built their camp and decided to build a mighty walled fortress to protect their peoples. Why can you not accomplish the niche of this lair’s roleplay in an existing settlement or nation? (We expect a substantial answer for this, not just ‘I don’t like them’). The niche of the proposed lair cannot exist within any existing settlement or nation currently. The Caelian's roleplay consists of gluttonous, militaristic cultured society of which politics are prevalent but all in support/coinciding with the military and this way of life. The Caelians are used to a large encompassing legislature that is made up of noble family members that vote on laws and the Lord-Protectors. Once the city fell on Arcas (at the end of the map) many men had declared themselves the new leaders of the Caelian peoples such as Caelius and Leo, but did not use Lord-Protector out of respect for Caelianus (The Original Caelian) and Latinius (The last Lord-Protector). Under the Caelian Religion Iusreligio which is a Polytheistic religion specific (currently) to the Caelian peoples, has many festivities and traditions associated with it that cannot be done in other cities, such as the use of dedicating buildings, and animal sacrifice. This settlement will act as a haven for free trade, the religious cult of the Iusreligio gods, and a fun area for potential wanderers to come across and roleplay with. What does this lair add to the greater world around them?: This will add a militaristic buffer state between the three nations of Urugan, Oren and Haelun'or by land and the Druidic Order by sea; the lair will practice minor geopolitics and attempt potential raids to enemies and bandits from this location. It will add something to see around EastFleet which is something that is needed especially after the "fall" of Vaelya. This will add a Pagan element to the region that is out of the ordinary which can evolve into fun roleplay where players interact with this religion and the people that follow it within and outside of the walls of the lair. We currently have a big group of peoples there being around 11 currently, and we still have more that may potentially join in the near future.
