[QUOTE="NewJeffCT, post: 4354975, member: 10784"] The history of the realm was that Eldor was once a huge human kingdom called Brandobia that lived in relative peace & harmony with the elves, halflings and dwarves of the region. After several centuries of this, a vast empire (Kalamar) attempted to invade. Despite being outnumbered, the humans, elves, dwarves and halflings bravely fought the invaders to a draw in a mountain pass (in fact, a group of halfling slingers broke the last charge of the Kalamarans) and both sides withdrew to their respective sides of the mountains to lick their wounds. The human king of Brandobia blamed the elves (in particular) for not winning, as well as the dwarves and halflings, and promptly attempted to invade the elven kingdom... of course, the invading humans were promptly trounced and the human king was left with only hurling obscenities at the elves, and then passing laws against anybody not human. The elf king responded by telling the human king to be fruitful and multiply... which was, in fact, a curse, as the human queen soon bore triplet sons. Upon coming of age, the three sons fought for power and the kingdom degenerated into a civil war. After years of fighting, Brandobia was split into three kingdoms: the smallest (Cosdul) to the north where humans and non-humans lived in relative peace and harmony and humans are a minority in the capitol; the middle kingdom of Eldor, which is the largest and most powerful, but also extremely intolerant; and the southern kingdom of Mendarn, which is sort of balanced between Eldor and Cosdul in terms of tolerance. It has been that way for a few centuries now, and the three kingdoms that used to be Brandobia have fairly tense, but cool relations (no major wars)... [/QUOTE]
