I'm sorry to say I'm having to leave the caves to take over my duties of a satrap in Novum Persarium. I will miss my time here, but unfortunately, duty to nation and family forces me elsewhere. Thanks for the time here Witty, and I look forward to seeing all of y'all in the upcoming battles.

With the Governor's permission, I, Samuel Fawkes, as Admiral of the Orangered Navy would like to establish a Naval Base in Iron Keep, Areus Antris. This base will serve as a northern offensive launch point for our ships, it is crucial we have a safe location to dock our vessels in these cold, hostile waters.

~ Samuel Fawkes, Admiral of the Navy

Welcome to the land of Areus Antris, the Orangered Caves. Areus Antris is an underground territory, designed in and around the natural caves and caverns underneath the rocky, frozen, windswept wasteland that is the surface. Here in Areus we live in sprawling underground cities with plenty of open space available, and wonderful views. We have free natural heating provided by Mother Earth year round.

##Cities of Areus Antris

Map

Note: Map subject to change once I acquire an updated map of the new Chroma.

Caverns of Dawn: The largest city in Areus Antris and also the capital. This city houses the Army Headquarters and the primary Army Research Labs. The city is also rumored to house a secret testing facility for advanced weaponry.

Cornithian Hold: A fortress city guarding one of the entrances to the underground caverns of Areus Antris. Almost all residents of this city are active or former soldiers. The city stands at a near constant state of alert to repel any invaders.

Dark Watch: A city constructed of almost a dark stone and created to guard one of the tunnel entrances to Areus Antris. Being farther from the boarder and less exposed, it is less militarized than the Cornithian Hold, but is still primarily a military base.

The Iron Keep: The third and final of the Western Fortress Cities. The Iron Keep is a massive underground fortress that guards the Northwest of Areus from all invaders. This is, within Areus, the secondary Headquarters for the Army. This fortress houses a lot of the military's hardware and troops.

Deepfall: A sprawling city located on a river at the base of an underground waterfall. This city has massive hydroelectric generators that provide additional power to much of Areus without having to tap into the Geothermal energies beneath the territory. This city also exports various species of fish only found in the underground rivers of Areus.

Stonecrest: A smaller city, but home to massive iron mines that supply building materials across Chroma and to the Orangered Army. Despite its size it is one of the richest cities in Areus due to the amount of materials it exports.

Paradise Grotto: The only surface city in Areus Antris.This city grows the majority of non-imported agricultural goods for Areus. The city, surrounded by large mountains, is heated at great expense in order to keep it warm enough for plants to grow there.

Raynmor: This industrial city contains the foundries that process the mineral exports of Areus, such as iron and copper. The only cities in Areus with better economies are Stonecrest and the Caverns of Dawn.

Seaguard: A city with direct access to the surface, but still located underground. Seaguard provides the navy with direct access to the Ocean of Chroma from the safety of an port located inside the cliffs of Areus Antris's Eastern border.

Endwatch Point: Another cliff city. Endwatch was built in an age long gone to watch the sea for invaders coming from the South and East. It still fulfills its duty as a guard, but does so in a more high tech capacity today. It is now the technological hub of Areus.

On some of the questions in the application's explanation you will notice that I reference 'in-character' things. In Chroma, many of our players have developed a persona that we use as ourselves. These characters are the ones featured in lore and who go into battle on the field of glory. While not required it greatly enhances the experience and makes it easier for lore to be written about you and your accomplishments. Most people with characters include their reddit username in some manner, if only to allow for easier identification. For example, my character's full name is Alaric "Witty" Brandt, and /u/SirGuyFawkes's character is Samuel Fawkes.

A cold sweat beaded on Lolz's face as he lay in bed at the newly erected Areus Medical Facility. A normal man would not have survived taking a high caliber round to the gut. A normal man would have died before he could be flown to Areus for medical attention. Luckily for Lolz he wasn't a normal man.

He wasn't out of the woods yet though. His medics on site had patched him up for the flight, the staff at Areus had provided him with the best care available, but now it was up to Lolz to pull through.

The nurse on hand stared sadly down at Lolz's tormented face. Her attention was quickly drawn to a loud noise coming down the hallway.

Before she even had time to react her eyes were met with the sight of a man crashing through the doors, munching on a wedge of Brave Moggie Cheddar.

The man in question was no other than Fro, having just flown from Felicity Farm in Pasto.

"Don't worry Lolz! You'll be right as rain in no time!" Fro said through a mouth full of cheddar. The shocked look on the nurse's face, reminded Fro of his manners. He swallowed the cheese before continuing. "We have tea to for you to help with a speedy recovery. Mrs. Geekerjoy makes the finest tea in all of Chroma."

The nurse continued to sit speechless as members of the Peri Penguins brought in a crate of tea and the appropriate accoutrements. They were immediately followed by Ms. Geekerjoy herself.

Breaking News!

Collapses in the North!

The city of Raynmor has collapsed after a recent earthquake!

The current cause of the quake is unknown, but rescue workers from across Areus Antris are rushing to the city to aid local crews. No other collapses have been reported so far, but Governor Brandt has put all government rescue workers on standby, and geologists are working to see if there will be aftershocks.

Riders have been sent to Aegis to request the Mages assistance in the strengthening of the cavern walls around Areus Antris and to clear the rubble from Raynmor.

Governor Brandt has also sent a detachment of White Blades to patrol Raynmor to assist the City Watch in the prevention of looting and general security.

Further details coming soon!
