Valley of the Silver Rains

Former Amtgard Kingdom in the Pacific Northwest.

Heraldry

History

Originally formed as a breakaway group from the Kingdom of the Mystic Seas, they spent a brief time outside Amtgard but were brought back into the fold as a seperate Floating Crown kingdom.

This created an area (Oregon and Washington State) with two kingdoms in close proximity, with chapters intermixed in the same area and sometimes the same town. This environment resulted in a lot of Kingdom-Hopping as individuals and even entire groups went under whatever flag of convenience offered them the most stuff.

This matter was finally resolved when VSR joined with the Mystic Seas in early 2005 to form the new kingdom of Blackspire.
