Magda'roth Empire

#L530

Overview

The Magda’roth Empire, led by (and what is effectively) House Versalhes, carries the ancient legacy of the long-fallen Magda’roth Kingdom. Once a flourishing power in the Old Realm, the Kingdom met its tragic end in a catastrophic event too cruel to speak. Adamastor Magda Versalhes, the sole surviving descendant, became the bridge between the ancient and modern world. Adopting the orphaned twins Desmond Versalhes and Derek Versalhes, he solidified House Versalhes’ claim to the Magda’roth legacy. In Landfall-530 - Noble Blood, House Versalhes has emerged as a force determined to rebuild what was lost, forging the Empire’s future amidst Caldora’s evolving landscape.

Role in Epochs

• Old Realm: The Magda’roth Kingdom thrived in the Old Realm, its influence rivaling other great powers. Its collapse left an indelible mark on history, shaping the ambitions of its distant heirs.
• Landfall-530 - Noble Blood: Centuries after the Kingdom’s fall, House Versalhes rose from obscurity. Guided by Adamastor’s vision and strengthened by Desmond and Derek’s leadership, the Magda’roth Empire reclaims its ancestral glory, forming key alliances with neighboring regions like Ehrengard.

Major Events

• The Culling of Magda’roth
  Millennia ago, the Magda’roth Kingdom fell to betrayal and chaos, its royal bloodlines extinguished save for one survivor. The Kingdom’s collapse scattered its people, leaving only ruins and fragmented histories.
• Adamastor’s Legacy
  Adamastor Magda Versalhes, heir to the fallen Kingdom, sought to rebuild what his ancestors lost. During his travels, he found the orphaned twins Desmond Versalhes and Derek Versalhes and adopted them into House Versalhes, ensuring the bloodline’s continuity and fostering a new generation of leadership.
• The Rise of the Magda’roth Empire
  Thousands of years after the Kingdom’s fall, and after generations of Versalhes poverty, Desmond and Derek emerged as the dual rulers of the Magda’roth Empire. Through diplomacy and military innovation, they transformed their small territory into a growing power, forging alliances and securing their place in Caldora’s history.

Legacy

House Versalhes taps into the forgotten grandeur of the Old Realm. The Empire’s motto, “Swift as a fox, everlasting as the worlds above,” symbolizes its enduring journey to bridge the ancient past with a prosperous future, carrying the weight of its heritage into every new alliance and conquest.
