OK, travelers just got back from an unknown distant land where wars rage on and on, and the innocent always seem to pay the price. But despite the constant battles, the kingdom is friendly and the people are warm and welcoming. The Kingdom, however, is ruled by a king who plans on changing the friendly atmosphere into an intimidating one. The King's name is Axel Van Deriz, or King Axel. Uncle of Ziggy Zarrodi and the new ruler since Antonio Zarrodi passed on. The Kingdom is called 'Meristirithe.' and it's the Kingdom of weredragons and dragons alike. Meristirithe in human english translated from standard weredragon means 'Dragon City.' Another name for the Kingdom, because of the constant fighting is 'WarFang.' The entire kingdom is beautiful, but ever since the beloved King Antonio passed on, and Ziggy disappeared, people have lived in fear of their new king, knowing that if they don't tread softly on his rules, they will be the next victims in a series of mysterious disappearances.
Nobody knows how the nation was formed, it just seemed to pop up one day after travelers returned from a three-month long journey.
The reasons for the wars is that the last King, King Antonio was like a 'Peacekeeper' between his kingdom and foreign nations. When he died, so did the alliances, and all the nations' last hope rested with Ziggy, but after he disappeared, the wars began with the reign of King Axel.
There is a secret underground organization of rebel spies, soliders, conartists, thieves, and other such called 'The Wolves of Merisitrithe'
For the whole gender dispute, weredragons find both genders to be equal in the sense that neither can survive without the other. In some ways, the females are better than males, and in other ways it is the opposite.
The kingdom is set in the center of a very rich-in-traffic trade route, they always have spices, herbs, artesian artifacts, and many other things to trade.
The weredragons are tolerable of all races and orientations, if you are willing to obey their laws you may even be able to live with them.
There are three major cities and two minor Villages: The city of Valour, the city of Cyrill and the City of Trinity. There is also two vilages: the village based on a trade system of crops, meats, and other foods and items named 'The Trader's Haven.' and the other village comprises mostly of military cavalry units, infantry, and Dragon riders, this village is called 'WarFang Village'
The final thing to know about this city is it's surroundings: it is located in the valley between two great mountains, running through the valley and all around the kingdom is a sparkling, pure river, the River called 'Zero' the valley is called 'The Dragon Valley' and the two mountains are called 'The Serpent's peak' and 'Mt. Draconia.' There are clusters of trees that form forests and a desert beyond the lush valley and mountains. The desert is called the 'Hellfire Desert.'
