History
Tirana was founded by Thax and Carnelian in the spring on 1992. They took the recommendation of Shadow Hawk and waited until the passing of the stormy reign of Arioch to join the Celestial Kingdom in the reign of Rufus Grimwulf. It grew to a duchy at its strongest period by 1995. Within that time Tirana experimented with new monsters, classes, a monetary system in which they minted their own coinage, and continuing plots and quests.
Roleplaying
It was said that Tirana had a nearby opposing territory called the Kingdom of Bonte' that they were in constant military conflict with. This held until greater dangers overwhelmed Bonte' and threatened Tirana. This new threat was described as a 'dark lands', a creeping bleakness that crept across the land like a great shadow. The edge of this territory was called the 'shadowed lands' as it slowly was drained of life and color from the forests and grasslands. Water became tainted, and animals would become much more hostile, as well as greatly increasing in size, or gaining other unholy features. As the dark lands advanced, lycanthropes and creatures of the undead became a more common threat and would often murder lone wanderers in the woods...
