The Island of Dahlion

This page is under heavy construction and more content will be added through later dates.

Dahlion is a island that has been made during the landscaling for the Silver Wing paladine order, the reason for it's creation was to prevent any conflict going on between the ruler of Ashdale and the various individuals who had been roleplaying on the island of Ashdale during it's more empty stages. To avoid further out of character conflict the solution was made to landscale the island and have a seperate settlement made far off the shore of Ashdale.

The ingame representation of the island would be Ashdale.

Geography of Dahlion.
Dahlion is one of the many islands that inhabit the seas around the kingdom of Ashdale that are yet unclaimed territory and that had been inhabited by the various individuals and races that had through the timespan of hundreds of years started to colonize the waters around them.

The island of Dahlion measures roughly around 157,8 kilometers long from front to end and 76,4kilometers wide at its widest point. Despite it's large size for a island that houses only one colony the island is dominated by a mountain range, the Tarantac Mountains. Further the island contains a river that leads from an underground spring located within one of the mountains and that find it's way down into the sea.

Dahlion its island lays with its middle on a seismic plate that causes earthquakes to occur rather often on the southern end of the island, for unkown reasons plants and trees find themselves rather well on the crack within the seismic plates however.

Climate of Dahlion.
Dahlion has a climate that is rather simular to the mediterranean, the winters are rather mild (on the coast) and warm to hot summers ranging to the inlands of the island itself, rain occurs mainly during the winters while the summers are often considered of a dry nature. The avarage annual temperature on the coast can be considered around 24C (75 F) during the day and 14 C (57 F at night. Generally the summers last about eight months within the gielinorian callendar for the island with avarage temperatures of 21-23 C (70-73 F) during the day and 11- 13 C (52-55 F) at night.

Topografic information of Dahlion
Despite the size of the island it only inhabits one colony that has been founded during the mid third age as it was meant to serve as a military training grounds for Saradomist soldiers, due to it's strange nature of laying far behind the Bandosian frontlines it was considered to be the perfect location to attack the weakened bandosian heart through the means of a suprise attack.

Nowadays the Island holds the same establishment of a colony that over the ages had grown out to become a sanctuary for Saradomist worshippers due to the religious individuals having remained there after the god wars had ended.The city that now had formed out of the former colony. it's population is estimated to hold a rough 5.640 inhabitants as per the last census.

Military and politics of Dahlion.
Dahlion is still till this day home to various religious individuals and home to the Silver Wing paladin order under the controll and rule of Lord Paladin Hybris Baran, However this is not the native military force that defends the city at this point. The feudal ruler of the island is Lady (?) however little is known about the political ruler of the islands it is for certain that the island is heavily based on naval warfare as their main military force is build up of a large portion of a naval fleet. Dahlion so far has kept itself out of political struggling due to the remote location of the Island however with the comming of the Silver Wing order there are advancements made with the various religious groups such as the White Knights of Falador and the Church of St.Rimmington.

Trade and economy.
The island of Dahlion upholds the same Valuta used within the rest of Gielinor and despite it's name the currency is of equal worth with the rest of the golden coins that are produced on the mainland.

Dahlion's main export product is salt that has been won from the salt mines that rest on the islands, aswell as the export of Quartz gems and marble that seems to be found naturally on the island. It's main import product seems to be wood as due to the rocky nature of the ground and the plains that strech over the island it is hard to find trees that are of good enough quality to construct houses from.
