Caledor is a High Elf realm bearing a proud martial tradition. Named after its founder Caledor Dragontamer[1a], the realm is located between Ellyrion, Tiranoc and Eataine in Ulthuan.

History

Before the elves came to Caledor, the area was the home to many dragons, lairing amongst the volcanic caves and tunnels, linnign their nests with the gems and metals easily found nearby. The dragons here grew quickly and became larger than those of other lands whilst the population incrased until they could darken the skies with their numbers. [3a]

Caledor Dragontamer claimed this area and managed to obtain their loyalty through powerful sorcery, gaining great power over the other elves of Ulthuan. [3a]

As the continent was attacked by Daemons, only Caledor and its dragons were able to hold strogn against them, and when Aenarion travelled to the region to gain support, Caledor recognised him as chosen by Asuryan and presented him with Indraugnir, the greatest and oldest of the dragons of Caledor. [3a]

Later the many lairs of the Dragons began to cool and the dragons themselves became more and more sleepy, harder to awaken to ride to battle. Even when they can be awakened, now they often tire quickly so the Dragon lords only rouse them when absolutely neccesary. [3a]

Locations

Much of the land is mountainous, with fertile valleys rich with life, enough to feed hungry dragons. [1a]

Inhabitants

The Elves of this kingdom and in particular the nobles are fiercly proud of their history, that they have always been the backbone of the armies of Ulthuan. [2a]

Notable

Military

Many of the warriors of Caledor have dragons on their shields, helms and swords. [2a] Unusually they also favour black for crests and plumes, whislt armour is often crafted to resemble the scales of dragons and coloured red or green. [1b]

Quotes

Our brethren from the oldest times, the purest and truest expression of the power of life that this world has to offer. Once the skies were filled with their graceful forms and they danced about the thermals that flow over the mountains in intricate mating rituals that were a joy to behold. They sat at the feet of Vaul and set their fiery breath to heating his forges. When we went to war against the forces of Chaos, they carried the greatest of our heroes upon their backs and they were ever the first to engage the enemy and the last to withdraw from the field. Now they dwindle, as do we all, and their song is fading to memory. When they perish entirely so I think shall we and perhaps that is only proper.

~ Sithafbron, Dragon Lord of Caledor. [5a]
