Float Isles

Once a single large island, the Float Isles were a repository of knowledge. Those seeking to learn would come here from all over the world. In the city of Unity, the University was housed. This would take anyone willing to learn, and teach them. There were no restrictions on who or what could be taught. After a tragic magical experiment gone wrong, a great whirlwind erupted around the island and magic tore the land from the ocean. As it rose, Unity was destroyed and everything within it scattered to the 4 directions. After awhile the 5 remaining great houses became capitals of their own small island each unwilling to work with the other.

5 Great Houses & Cities

There are 5 main cities, each sprung up around a Noble Family’s home when Unity Hold was destroyed.

Atmos

This large city is the new capitol of the Float Isles. Atmo’s key feature is the Rainbow Roofs of the city. The magic stone within the islands is used to creature the roofs of the buildings. The stone has the odd property of while being charged with magic it weighs less than air and as such it floats in the air. There is very little that cannot be found with Atmos as it is the main Air Traffic port in all of Arcadia.

Perceptum

Strange magics are rumored to be practiced here and the cities population is made up of 75% magic users. The city is very untrusting of outsiders.

Cumari

The great house of Cumari was once a thriving merchant estate, now fallen to ruin. The citizins of the city are known for being collectors and have a sharp eye for gold and items of value.

Stratius

The house of Stratius is ruthlessly efficient and extremely aggressive. They were known for making excellent War Lords as they value success over everything else.

Vorti

Vorti are the main rivals to Atmos as despite their smaller size, they acquired many of the artifacts from Unities Hold and thus their greatly rose in power. Artificer’s from Vorti are highly sought after for their extensive knowledge.

Unity's Hold

Once the Capitol of the Float Isles, this once magnificent city now lies in ruin. A vast amount of books, scrolls, artifacts, and objects of Wonder were thrown to the 4 winds when the Float Isles rose from the ocean. Deep within the Ruins the Tree Sage of Knowledge can be found here.

Last Stand

This tall tower stands between the kingdoms of Vorti and Atmos. It serves as a neutral location for leaders of both to meet. It is frequently fought over by either kingdom.
