@Eldharyn
The Veiled Continent of Blood and Crowns
Core Theme: Feudal power, ancient bloodlines, hidden monsters
Government: Hereditary monarchy with noble houses
Technology Level: Late industrial–early arcane (less advanced than Astrapolis)
Dominant Powers: Nobility, vampire aristocracy, secret covenants
Public Face: Chivalry, honor, lineage
True Nature: Infiltration, predation, decay beneath tradition
Eldharyn is the continent of old power. Where Astrapolis looks forward, Eldharyn clings to ancestry, blood, and name. It survived the 500-Year War not by innovation, but by endurance and secrecy.
Unbeknownst to most of the population, Eldharyn is the primary refuge of Vampires, who have embedded themselves into noble bloodlines over centuries.
“The Crown Above the Veins”
Type: Royal capital, ancient city
Population: ~1.2 million
Ruler: King Albrecht IV (human, possibly compromised)
Valencrest is a city of marble spires, crimson banners, and deep shadows. Built atop layered ruins, its underground catacombs stretch farther than the living districts above.
The Crimson Court: Royal palace and noble assembly
Veinways: Underground passages used by vampires
The Silent Cathedral: A pre-war structure warded against miracles
At least five major noble houses are fully vampire-controlled
The King’s bloodline shows signs of controlled vampiric dilution
Inquisition presence is tolerated but strictly monitored
@Nocthall
“The City That Never Bleeds”
Type: Noble city-state
Population: ~600,000
Status: Semi-autonomous
Nocthall is widely rumored to be cursed. Crime is low. Murders are rare. People simply… disappear.
Nightlife economy thrives
Strict curfews are “suggested,” not enforced
Guards are unnaturally disciplined
Nocthall is effectively a vampire-controlled city, ruled by a hidden Crimson Hierarch, a vampire elder of immense age.
The city serves as:
A feeding ground
A diplomatic hub for vampire politics
A testing ground for blood manipulation techniques
@Grayhaven
“Where Hunters Are Born”
Type: Fortress-city
Population: ~350,000
Alignment: Anti-beast, semi-Inquisition
Grayhaven is Eldharyn’s answer to monsters — at least officially.
Heavy fortifications
Military academies
Public executions of “confirmed beasts”
Some officers are secretly vampire thralls
Hunters unknowingly protect vampire interests by eliminating rivals
Quiet Room operatives are deeply embedded here
@Rosenfall
“The Garden of Graves”
Type: Cultural and religious center
Population: ~500,000
Rosenfall is known for its art, poetry, funerary traditions, and elaborate blood rituals disguised as cultural ceremonies.
The Rose Necropolis: City-sized cemetery
The Scarlet Opera: Performances rumored to be enchantments
The Blood Archivum: Restricted noble records
Rosenfall is where vampire lineage records are kept — tracking blood purity, dilution, and political alliances.
@The Black Veins
Subterranean Eldharyn
A continent-spanning underground network connecting noble estates, cities, and ancient ruins.
Used by vampires and shifters
Older than the current monarchy
Some sections predate the War
Rumors suggest parts of the Black Veins were altered by Chaos, making them hostile even to beasts.
Maintain hierarchy based on strength
Use noble bloodlines as vessels
Avoid open domination to prevent crusades
Publicly human
Privately compromised
Balances survival against revelation
Allowed, but restricted
Constantly monitored
Often manipulated
Operates in shadows
Focuses on containment, not exposure
Maintains fragile truces with certain vampire elders
Officially banned
Secretly employed by nobles
Witch curses are used as political tools
Angelica is especially feared in Eldharyn, as her soul magic threatens vampire lineage control.
Respected publicly
Distrusted privately
Meruen is considered a dangerous myth
A noble family requests help finding a “missing heir” (already turned)
A vampire elder seeks protection from Angelica
The King may not be the King anymore
The Black Veins begin rejecting even vampires
A Quiet Room cell disappears in Nocthall
Eldharyn is not ruled by monsters.
It is ruled by those who learned to hide them best.
