{{Ispar Index}} Silveran has been described as a frozen kingdom, located presumably in the north of Ispar.<ref name=DearUncle>2005/09 [[Under Cover of Night]] - [[To My Dear Uncle]]</ref> The Silverans are comparable to the real-world Norse/Vikings and their lands are north across the bay from Viamont, and NW of Aluvia.{{Specific Citation Needed}} The portals to Dereth have not shown up on their lands therefore no known Silverans have arrived in Dereth. It is assumed that any who have arrived have disguised themselves as any of the other four races.{{Specific Citation Needed}} Contact with the Silveran was made mostly by the Viamontian and Aluvian, and mixed marriages did occur.<ref name=TournamentI>[[The Tournament Part I]]</ref><ref name=TournamentIII>[[The Tournament Part III]]</ref><ref name=Alfrega>1999/11 [[Release]] - [[The Reign of Alfrega]]</ref><ref name=DearUncle>2005/09 [[Under Cover of Night]] - [[To My Dear Uncle]]</ref> Also the Roulean must have had contact with the Silveran.<ref>2005/07 [[Throne of Destiny]] - [[Champion's Demise]]</ref> The saying "as far away as Silveran" comes especially from the view of the Gharu´ndim. <ref>2000/04 [[Thorns of the Hopeslayer]] - [[The Silifi of the Crimson Stars]]</ref> == History == === On Ispar === The Silveran smiths masterfully constructed the [[Princely Runed Weapons]], the [[Royal Runed Weapons]] and the [[Red Rune Silveran Weapons]] for the [[Viamontian]] King [[Varicci I]]. <ref name=PrinceRuneWeapon>2006/04 [[Shining Runes and Shadowed Hands]] - [[Princely Runed War Bow]]</ref><ref name=RoyalRuneWeapon>2006/05 [[The Price of Loyalty]] - [[Royal Runed War Bow]]</ref><ref name=RedRuneWeapon>2006/06 [[From the Darkest Depths]] - [[Red Rune Silveran Bow]]</ref><ref name=RunesTC>2006/04 [[Shining Runes and Shadowed Hands]] - [[Shining Runes and Shadowed Hands#Town Crier Rumors|Town Crier Rumors]]</ref><ref>2006/06 [[From the Darkest Depths]] - [[Tracking Grael]]</ref><ref>2006/06 [[From the Darkest Depths]] - [[Grael's Summoning Chamber]]</ref> Silveran Oak was used as a material for the scabbard of high end weapons. <ref>[[The Invasion of Ispar]]</ref> Swords forged out of this wood were weilded by the [[Viamontian]] Lord [[Darren di Marden]], Prince [[Renlen]], Count [[Corcima]] and [[Eleonora du Bellenesse]]. The sword was infused with the magics of the north and strands of diamond-lace weaved about the blade of the weapon, granting it a strength equal to - and some say greater than - the finest Viamontian steel. No warrior could wield a sword the size of those Silveran blades for long without succumbing to exhaustion.<ref name=TournamentI>[[The Tournament Part I]]</ref><ref name=TournamentIII>[[The Tournament Part III]]</ref> It was rumored that the [[Aluvian]] Queen [[Alfrega]] had Silveran blood. <ref name=Alfrega>1999/11 [[Release]] - [[The Reign of Alfrega]]</ref> [[Eleonora du Bellenesse]]´s mother was a princess of the Silveran people and she herself was seventh in line for the throne of that frozen kingdom.<ref name=DearUncle>2005/09 [[Under Cover of Night]] - [[To My Dear Uncle]]</ref> === On Dereth === The portals to Dereth have not shown up on their lands therefore no known Silverans have arrived in Dereth.{{Specific Citation Needed}} It is assumed that any who have arrived have disguised themselves as any of the other four races.<ref>[[AC:DM CD Lore/Late Dereth Texts/The Frost King]]</ref> What did appear on Dereth are the Princely and Royal Runed Silveran Weapons, brought at great expense to Dereth by the [[Viamontian]]s and "stolen" and distributed. <ref name=RunesTC>2006/04 [[Shining Runes and Shadowed Hands]] - [[Shining Runes and Shadowed Hands#Town Crier Rumors|Town Crier Rumors]]</ref> Another tier of Silveran Weapons, the [[Red Runed Silveran Weapons]] are only available by joining one of the [[Viamontian]] factions, though also these weapons were supposed only to be distributed to [[Varicci II]]´s elite troops.<ref>2006/06 [[From the Darkest Depths]] - [[From the Darkest Depths#Town Crier Rumors|Town Crier Rumors]]</ref><ref>2006/06 [[From the Darkest Depths]] - [[From the Darkest Depths#Ulgrim Rumors|Ulgrim Rumors]]</ref> === Rulers === {|{{format|Panel}} |bgcolor=#d0d0d0 valign=top| '''Name |bgcolor=#d0d0d0 valign=top| '''Bloodline |bgcolor=#d0d0d0 valign=top| '''Rank/Title |bgcolor=#d0d0d0 valign=top| '''Years of reign |bgcolor=#d0d0d0 valign=top| '''Notes |- |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |- |colspan=5| ---- |- |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |- |colspan=5| ---- |- |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |- |colspan=5| ---- |- |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |valign=top| |- |colspan=5| ---- |- |colspan=5| <small>Sources: -- </small> |} == Culture == === Religions and Beliefs === === Customs and Traditions === The look of a Silveran warrior has been described as having "long white hair and tattooed body - nearly naked". <ref name=TournamentI>[[The Tournament Part I]]</ref> === Real World Basis === The Silverans are comparable to the real-world Norse/Vikings. {{Specific Citation Needed}} == Texts == {{Item Table | }} == Internet Articles == * [[Silveran (Fan Fiction)]] == Factions == An elite group of Silveran warriors called themselves the [[Valkeer]].<ref>2005/07 [[Throne of Destiny]] - [[Valkeer's Helm]]</ref> == Items == {{Item Table | Champion's Demise | Valkeer's Helm }} * The [[Princely Runed Weapons]]<ref name=PrinceRuneWeapon>2006/04 [[Shining Runes and Shadowed Hands]] - [[Princely Runed War Bow]]</ref>, the [[Royal Runed Weapons]]<ref name=RoyalRuneWeapon>2006/05 [[The Price of Loyalty]] - [[Royal Runed War Bow]]</ref> and the [[Red Rune Silveran Weapons]] were crafted by Silveran smiths, commissioned by [[Varicci I]] on Ispar for the Royal Armory.<ref name=RedRuneWeapon>2006/06 [[From the Darkest Depths]] - [[Red Rune Silveran Bow]]</ref> == Art & Images == <gallery widths=200px heights=200px perrow=4> File:Antique Map of Ispar Labeled.jpg|A map of Ispar (fan-made) </gallery> *[http://http://www.warcry.com/content/ac/game_info/ispar_maps Ispar Map] == References == <references/> [[Category:Lore Database Entry]] [[Category:Ispar Location]] [[Category:Culture]]
