Rhyl General Events

CY 5580 Fall of Dundaria in the North – Frostfang spreads, the Lich Lord power rises. Horses of the undead, fortunately disorganized (at first), sweep south and west from the heart of old Dundaria.

CY 5980 The Kingdoms of old Rhylan united settled as a single Kingdom of Rhyl to fight the Lich Lords drive south. After centuries of warfare between territories and races, the common cause of the threat to the north secures a lasting peace.

The Rock of Hoarthedyn

Posted on September 22, 2025

Steel Realms
The Rock of Hoarthedyn is a large hill of about 90 acres that sits amidst the capital City of Rhylan in The Grand Duchy of Rhyl. The rock is the larger of the 2 jagged hills Rhylan is built around (Reethedyn and Hoarthedyn). This hill was once the lair of the dragon that ruled these lands over six thousand years ago. This location bears the Frost-Melded mark an ancient encounter with the Dragon of Rhyl.

Rhyl Culture | Territories & Fiefs | Features | North Gate Garrison | Map

Defining Ideal: The Grand Duchy of Rhyl has been "The Shield of the North" in the wars of The Noble East vs. The Broken Lands for thousands of years as well as stradling the crossroads of many powers and maintaining a tense peace. The Chronicle of Rhyl shows it first as many fiefdoms of 'The Lands of Rhylan' (CY 5500's), then a united kingdom (CY 5980), then as a duchy of the High Kings' kingdom of Gladnor (CY 6514). All citizens in the north take the pledge of Rhylan the Living.

Culture: Rhylian ( 'rill', 'rillian') locales have locally flavored experiences, but unless noted, follow general Territories and Fiefdoms properties and all share Common Culture - languages, Character Experience, institutions, Law, etc.

It on the east side (the side going north, nearest the mountains in the distance) of the pathway to North Gate Garrison for the Lightbringers – for those who may be going to their “setting sun” (death), a place to rest your head, a meal and a held hand and soft voice to inspire and encourage.

A Peace Speaker of the High Temple is always present in West Hearth on The Red March along The Red March, where passions and tempers flare on the way to fight the true enemy of life and peace – The Lich Lords of the Fallen North.

Entertainers and bards are always welcome here. There are always one or more brothels active in this place.

East Glade on The Red March and West Hearth on The Red March are companion functions and those working in these places often share information and resources.
