The Kingdom of Veritaius,is one of several Kingdoms in the realm. It is one Kingdom (or country) in the continent of Talicia. Magic exists in this realm, with each Kingdom and country following their own pantheon of gods.
Veritaius is governed by King Harold, and has four different Provinces; Brackt, Dejin, Lorenwood and Surrelin. These four provinces surround the City of Veritaius, a bustling City that holds the Palace, Temples for each God, a market place, the Garrison for the King's guard, the Healer's Ward, and trainers for each of the Profession Castes. There is a variety of houses, inns, and other buildings within the city. Surrounding the Palace are beautiful gardens.
Veritaius has a strict hierarchy called the Caste system. This system contains three social groups (Nobles, Peasants and Slaves) and four profession groups (Priests, Warriors, Healers, and Mages). These profession castes are the professions that require special skills, magical abilities or particular training. There are a variety of other professions that do not require a special talent or training which are open to Nobles, Peasants and Slaves.
The citizens of Veritian Society believe in the Gods, in magic and the Caste system. Religion is very different in this realm; it is a belief system rather than an organised group. There are no sacred rules or sacred texts to follow. The people of Veritaius choose a God, and then pray or give offerings to seek aid from the God.
King Harold has built Veritaius into a united Kingdom that was the envy of the rest of Talicia. It is beginning to look as though this is about to change. King Harold's health is deteriorating, and his only child died 10 years previously. The new heir, most likely a distant relative to the King, was named only in the King's will. The will has gone missing, and the King is too ill to name the heir.
Veritaius has become a political battleground with many ambitious nobles aiming for the throne. Others are worried about the neighbours of Veritaius, and about the possibility of war.
