Lightfinger sighs as he sips his mug. He glances up at Silver,
remembering those carefree days of his youth when he was in love with
her, before they went their separate paths of destiny. His thoughts turn
to his homeland - Rohaj...


The Syndicated Confederacy of Rohaj is quite a distance away from
Generica. At least a good 6 months travel by horseback. It is a kingdom
ruled by businesses and guilds, in conjunction with the churches and
mages of the land. A small land, it is probably the size of what is on
Shadow Earth called Ireland.

The major guilds that are in control of the country are the Armorers,
Weaponers, Thieves, Farmers, and Blacksmith/Horsiers. The ruler of the
land is a mage, and his advisors are mainly from either the guilds or
the temples in the land.

The temples revere what people of Shadow Earth would call the Roman gods
- Mars, Juno, Jupiter, Minerva, etc. Prominent in worship is currently
the worship of Caligula, the mad god. This turn of events happened just
before Lightfinger made his second try for gaining admittance to the
College of Magic. The worshippers of Caligula wiped out the Temple of
Minerva, causing the goddess to become much weaker and Caligula to
become much stronger. After this display of strength, Caligula's
followers increase immensely, making him more popular than Jupiter.


Lightfinger turned to survey the bar. Many adventurers had wandered in
since he last scanned the place. He looked at each obne, rather detached
from them...

(btw, thanks to my newsserver dying yesterday, I missed quite a bit of
things...sorry if anyone talked to me or referred to me...)
