Helm Islands

Image

A nation driven by the willpower to bend steam and iron into a massive steam powered economy. The Helm Islands was built from fleeing Dwarves and Humans who sought to escape the tyrannical Britannica Empire of the past. Arriving on the islands the fleeing people found Chromiumbark, a mysterious metal that grew in the form of trees. This metal became the backbone of the island along with the power of steam energy.

The capital of the Helm Islands is fortress peak, a massive iron, steel and Chromiumbark fortress built into the side of a mountain. Built around the fortress are hundreds of homes in various levels until the city finally reaches the sea below.

the Helm Islands are lead by the Supreme Command, who also has the role of King, with his Generals and Admirals he helps keep the nations stable, and free from the reminders of the Britannica Empire.

King: Bernd Gehry
National Theme: Steampunk
Aspects: Steamdrive, Alchemy, Core Weapons

  • Hall of Khrormagaral
    The Hall of Khrormagaral was founded by Dwarven King Gromrack Khrormagaral near the foundation of the first cities on the Helm Islands, it was and always has been a home to the Dwarven people that live in this area. While it isn't the largest of the Dwarven Hall's, it is the one closest to a large population. Thus it was chosen to house the Core Weapon Aspect, and any others the Dwarves might have.

  • Chromiumbark Coppice (Rocky Island)
    All around Fortress Peak are living trees of metal which seem to grow like any normal tree. The bark of these trees is rusty making it appear brown and red giving it a normal tree-link colour. The leafs of these trees are heavy and when they fall things below them are often impaled. The people of Fortress Peak harvest these metal trees and leaves and turn them into weapons and housing and material. The wildlife here has adapted to have very dense armour to remain safe from the leaves.

  • Rockie Farmlands (Rockie Island)
    After clear cutting trees for the lumber they needed, as well as the land, the people of the Helm Islands would put the barren land to use. While they imported most of their goods from the Laurentian Empire, they still needed to grow some of their own, and thus projects to convert rocky landscape to farmlands were born.
