Meshela Sovereignty

Summary/Description

Details, Meanings and Uses

During the Age of Darkness the Spell Plague reeked havoc on the world and the land now known as Meshela bared the brunt of that catastrophe

Walking into the land of Meshela is almost like stepping into another world within Felwind. With the lack of arcane in the people’s culture the development of this country has taken a different direction.

Even before it was known as Meshela the land and the people that lived here had a long culture without magic.
Within these lands the Arcane weave was weaker than the rest of Felwind, Its unknown why, some theories press to the Spellplauge lingering effects, other theories say its a curse of a dead god, some More humble say that the weave is stronger and weaker in places all around Felwind and its simple natural and some theories say that the weaker weave is a conspiracy.

Magic was seen as unreliable in this land, and so people did their work without it, and over generations this practice bloomed into the culture of ‘Inner Strength’ we see today
Even after the weave had recovered and Meshela's arcane energy had returned to normal it had been thousands of years of a culture taught and believed that magic was noting more than a gimmick. a handicap for true power.

Many make the miss conception that there is no magic to be found within this country but its not entirely true. There are a fair few select spots designated for magical use without scrutiny. Some

With the nature of the land some Species of both people and monsters are nowhere to be found. Arcane in-tune species such as Elves, Genasi, etc cannot be found outside select few designated areas. They are not outlawed or anything but the fundamental culture of Meshela means its simply not hospitibal to be a magical people in a country that looks down upon it.

Though Arcane is scarce, Wild magic is still rather common. People are taught to supreas thier magic in this country for fear of deacrimination, but that causes complications as one with Arcane power unable to use it regularly creates unstable currents of magic, in some cases leading to permenant damage to thier bodies making so they are unable to control thier arcane energy, causing Wild Magic. Depending on the severity and if nothing is changed those individuals will eventually perish violently as the unstable magic will tear their bodies and souls apart.
So those with natural arcane power are Sent to the various communities where they are able to express themselves outside the public eye. Eventually it just becomes a part of their life to spend a few weeks every few months in arcane therapy of sorts.

With the everyday use of the weave being so negligible in this country ironically Arcane Mist and Weave Crystal are becoming more and more common.
Normally only seen in parts of the Feywild and Underdark as well as some other planes where the Arcane Weave is so rich and thick that it begins to condense into a physical, visible form.

Meshela's lands are mostly mild and flat, the nations seasons are rather moderate wit no extremes for hot or cold. the nation is naturally divided by massive mountain ranges along its centre. with a majority of the nation living along the southern area.
the northern end is a massive of tableland where the Spell Plague wrorte In-imaginable sized gashes within the land creating great chasms and deep ravines. The land here is rich in rare and unique minerals.

Abandoned Home (Location)
A sturdy home built with large proportions in mind. The home is relatively sturdy and rustic being about 10 minuets walk away of a major town/city. There is a small green house out back with various fruits and vegies once used for cooking but now over grown and over run. The house was the site of some taboo magics a while back so it sold for cheep, But since then the owner has abandoned it for unknown reasons leaving most of the house intact.

The Note-Worthy Bards (Location)
Their location in Meshela's capital was a rather strained relationship at first. The nation's stance against magic made it quite hard for trained Bards to find decent employment. Slowly the guild began to adapt and funneled many of their non magical performers to Meshela. Assisting in the costs involved with moving to a new nation. Because of this culture there has been some elitism brewing among the bards of Meshela though the masters of the Guild do much to stamp it out.

Hunberry (Town)
The Town of Hunberry a simple town with a passionate mayor. Hunberry is focused around their temple which most of the town attends weekly. Recently the town was attacked by bandits and taken over leaving refugees filling the roads and the neighboring towns.
