Illandria

The Gentle Isle is home to the city state of Illandria. The nation relies upon piracy for a large portion of it's income.

The pirates of Illandria are led by Rodrique "Two-Beards" Rodein. He is known throughout all of Theranil for his charm and devilish looks. The island city-state was founded by a group of knights who came upon the Gentle Isle escaping the chaotic aftermath of a devastating war. The island lacked natural resources so the knights suffered. With no other choice the knights chose to take what tools they had and to use them to survive. They began boarding merchant vessels and taking whatever they could. Though now corsairs, the knights did not forget their sacred oaths and codes. The knights became known for being the the most chivalrous group of pirates the western coast would ever come to see. News of the knights spread far and wide. Like minded individuals began to migrate to the island looking for new opportunities in a free land. For years the town prospered beyond what anyone could have expected. They continued to raid the western coast for merchant vessels only ever taking what they needed to survive. Today piracy has diminished greatly. With the enormous amount of trade that came into the city, the need for piracy ended. Though Piracy has fallen, it still stands as tradition so often vessels will travel out of Illandria looking for glory.
