LORDS & LADIES OF ROCKPORT RAISE ISLANDS
Seven Lords & Ladies have come to raise islands and rule Rockport as feudal vassals of Lord Rock. They bring people, land and talent to this small growing community.
LORD SAVANT OCHLER, MASTER OF THE SECRET SOUND (Human Male Sound Master Wizard)
Ochler is a retired adventurer from Sekuthar, Mirradanor specifically, where he trained as a Bard before developing sonic-based spellcasting as a master wizard. He is a man in his late thirties, heavy-set, with white and grey streaks through a thick curly mop of blonde hair. His skin is tanned pink and he has violet eyes. He customarily wears black studded leather and a tiger skin cloak.
He raised an island spherical in shape with a 200 foot tall 800 foot wide mangrove tree citadel in the middle. This is his living wood citadel. He brings 1202 Myrmidons (Town Guard kit human warriors) and 8,900 settlers, all human or eldonir human (eldonir = part-elven ie tinge of elven blood).
LADY DAMAZINA BRELLER VON BEK (Human Female Fighter)
Damazina is a standard fighter, hailing originally from Minrothad but spending most of her life in the Grey Mountain hinterlands between Thyatis and Karameikos. Her island is roughly circular and is being planted out with windbreak trees and terraced fields surrounding her part-buried stone fortress stronghold.
She brings with her The Company of the Brilliant Helm, a group of 200+ low-level adventurers. They bring their families, taking her island population up to 1000.
LORD PLURUS (Human Male Cleric of Justice)
Plurus builds a circular island, metamagically altered so that the rock is a massive honeycomb of underwater, amphibious and above water galleries, multi-storey buildings and crowning it all his massive stone and wood cathedral, a gothic masterpiece resembling a cathedral-covered hill.
Plurus' own religion numbers some 1,000+ souls plus 240 iron gargoyles programmed loyal to Plurus (and now the realm).
LORD COGO VORNHELM (Human Male Fighter)
Cogo is a gambler, speculator and broker. His conventional island is circular with conventional settlements.
LADY GERALDINE OF HIGHFORGE (Dwarf Female Technician Illusionist Warrior Rogue Druid)
Geraldine is an inventor, smith and mistress of crafts. Her island is cubic with a large valley in its centre, seawater is rendered fresh and tumbled down 200 feet through a series of locks, weirs and wheels to generate "electromagnetick thaumaturgical essence" for her experiments. In the centre of this depression is a 1200 foot wide circle of stone and metal.
LORD MAXIM (Human Male Rogue Fighter [Swashbuckler])
Maxim is a metahuman legatee, inheriting a bloodline of swordsmanship and derring-do. He lives more or less alone in a beached galleon in the centre of his new island, which resembles Peter Pan's lost world.
PARAMOUNT CHIEF PYRAMOUS (Really really big Octopus)
Pyramous is the leading chieftan of the many undersea races that live around Rockport. As such Pyramous rules as Lord Rock's fuedal vassal for this area. It's a big task. Luckily Pyramous is the size of a city block and so can handle big tasks. He is an honourable Octopus with a deep sense of loyalty and duty.
The undersea city of Rockport is covered by coral and so inhabited by many races. The largest concentration is from Tritons, Mermen and Octopi. 1,200 Octopi warriors and spellcasters were a part of the heroic amphibious assault to free Port Cuidad. The undersea city is patrolled by members of the Rockport Watch equipped with Shields of the Manta Ray and Helms of the Aquanaut.
