Government, History, and Background

Government Type

The city and surrounding territory is a S'Kra Mur monarchy, currently ruled by King Arhhdan. The monarchs of the city rule from Shorka's Palace located on the west side of the city. The kings of Muspar'i are collectively known as "the Blood of Shorka" after the founder of the city, but any actual relation to her is uncommon nowadays.

History

Muspar'i was founded by Shorka the Cobra after her service to Lanival in the Resistance War. She led the desert dwelling Scorpion Clan, along with a contingent of interested Desert Elves, to the shores of Lake Ratamipak and selected the location where the city would be built.

In a time of uncertainty, the first building completed was Lata'arna Keep, located near the middle of the construction site in case they needed to defend themselves. Later, the great walls of the city were erected and the keep became obsolete, but instead of tearing it down, its thick walls were seen as an ideal location for the cash reserves of the city and it has become the local banking facility.

Much of the early construction was done with sandstone and limestone quarried from just east of the city, along with bricks made from local materials. Other stone was dragged from the Gemfire Mountains and as mercantile trade was established, other materials were imported from all over Kermoria.
