Kalinor is Virate's favored city and home to the graceful Symenestra. They've earned their brutal reputation of stealing women from the surface out of tragic necessity. Living in the dark ceiling of a cavern has given them long elegant limbs and pale skin that helps them scale any surface, no matter how slick. Although their bones are frail, their claws are long and venom potent. Kalinor itself, is held together by threads of silk, dangling over the the remnants of what was what a lake. Now the bottom of the cave is home to a labyrinth of tunnels filled with creatures and dangers of the unknown.
But Kalinor is not like you think. The name itself means 'beneath Kalea' shedding light on how the city came to be. Originating from Falyndar, the Symmenestra were chased from Caiyha's jungles by the Myrians, choosing survival instead of territory, the Syms relocating in the treetops of Kalea. Over five hundred years ago, when the world around them crumbled, the Symenestra took refuge underground, choosing again to survive. This is where their race could finally thrive. Art, education and culture boomed as the Symenestra rebuilt themselves. Syms who are looking to return home, Akvatari, Zith and morphers will have the easiest time in Kalinor, although everyone is welcome. Although women should be wary, there are few circumstances where the Symenestra wouldn't welcome you into their home. The Syms will quickly prove themselves to be generous and curious hosts.
Under Mirage, I am slowly pulling the city out of its slumber, developing new NPCs, locations, events and so much more. Another reason an excellent time to crawl on over, because the city is about to embark on a history-writing quest. Over the summer, there had been strange occurances, from ghosts, to missing children to horrifying screeches in the night. If you are one for adventure, mystery and drama, Kalinor is the place for you!
Since Kalinor currently has about four PCs, making it an excellent atmosphere for any player who is looking for individualized attention, as well as some great rp partners. We've got a few shiny active PCs here, if you want to take a look and see who is in Kalinor:
