Formed in 2003 by former players of [[Northguard]] following its demise.  In 2006 the chapter was brought under sponsorship by the [[Principality]] of the [[Rosetta Pact]] and by extension the [[Iron Mountains| Empire]] starting a shift from what had traditionally an [[Emerald Hills]] region to an Imperial one.  Another occurrence during that year was a mass exodus following drama and a pair of elections which did not end favorably for a [[Zodiac Darkjester|clique]] in the park,  which resulted in roughly half of the population [[Park-Hopping]] to [[Mists of the Dawn]].  In [[2007]] the Rosetta Pact folded and the chapter defaulted to the status of a non-core Provence.  In [[2008]] the chapter became one of the charter chapters of the newly formed principality of [[Steel Valley]] (which has since undergone two name changes).  In 2009 the chapter moved to another park in St.Paul in an effort to increase recruitment.  The move introduced several new players into the population by the end of the year and the chapter reached its peak population at this time with around 20 active members per month.  The chapter began a slow decline beginning in late 2010 as players slowly moved away or quit at higher rate than new players could replace them.  It was also at this time a few inactive players attempted to form a splinter group called [[Tortuga]] in an area where about half of Starmount's populous lived  The splinter group's contract was denied by the [[BLBOD]] at the request of [[Lumpy]], the sheriff at the time, and soon went defunct. In early [[2011]], Starmount's neighbor to the south [[Mists of the Dawn]] established a second gameday in the area where Tortuga had been and used the numbers gained from it to reach [[Barony]] status.  By autumn 2011 Starmount's population/core membership had dwindled to 5-8 players per month.  In October 2011 the Sheriff, Raphael, began merging the chapter into Mists of the Dawn and finally declared the chapter defunct at [[The Sequel]] in May [[2012]]
