Foponian Empire

This article is about a fictional story.

The World

The Foponian Empire is vast. Some say that its existance reaches back so many years that history and myth of its begining have become unseperable. The time tables of the rise and fall of nations have long since settled as a dominant society as risen as victor. Even so, historians frequently embroil entire provinces in civil war as contradictory volumes are written only to be discarded in the flames of conflict.

In it's current state, there are five major continents:

Logovia

Illustra

Bron Lostem

Bron Fopish

Bron Stolpile

Characters:

'Clovis' Continent - Bron Lostem Province - Faris Role - Business Man, Weapons Master, Black Market Lordling Alignment - Chaotic Neutral

Referred to as the 'Ruby' merchant, Clovis is to many, a complicated character. As an outwardly minor baron of Faris, Clovis is known to the locals as being an aloof lordling who hails from some far away land. Many local magistrates and heralds alike speculate as to his origins, but each time sources become too inquisitive they seemingly dissapear. One thing is apparent however, Clovis's lands continueto swell with wealth as strong trade relations increase with the Merchant lords of Bron Stolpile and trade with the Caravans of the Verushian Flats.

20 Years hence, Clovis arrived during the infamous Faris Weapons Mastery tournament. He arrived as a stripling of a man, some of the elderly recall. As an aid to a traveling wine merchant he had come as an apparent orphaned teen and worked to make a living taking whatever employment he could muster. The wine merchant's name had long since expired into to realm of senility but varied accounts state that either the results of the tournament brought enough wealth to the merchant to retire and pass on the buisness to his pupil, or that Clovis stripped him of the business in a somewhat dubious fashion. None speak of this out loud however, one of the first rules that one learns in Faris is never to directly discuss the Ruby lord. How obnoxious the public must seem when heralds demand audience with a man who no one can place a face to, and yet all know exists.
