By far the coldest kingdom in the Caverns, the North prides themselves on knowledge and strict traditions. They are also amongst the richest kingdoms in terms of general population’s wealth and along with this, have one of the highest populations of melanistic Geode Wyverns mostly consisting of Greaters.
With such pride comes high standards. The whole kingdom’s architecture, down to the infrastructure, is made to be themed after the wintery blue gemstones that hang from the Cavern ceiling with laws set to keep the whole place looking nice. Clean, blue-grey streets of carved stone winde through to decorated brick homes that are set into the walls. Most activities take place inside a building with radiant heating though certain things may be hosted outside instead. Northern Geodites commonly enjoy musical shows or plays so theatres are abundant and lavish, much larger than most other buildings. They are often a center piece for Temp’s territories designed by their favored architects and engineers to be built by the most trusted workers.
Most Queens are referred to by their title followed by their last name but those in the North Frost Kingdom have always called their Queens by their full name. This is not just due to the citizens’ choice; the royal family commands respect from their subordinates which is followed through completely, a virtue long passed down through the line. She is regarded as one of the most intelligent Geode Wyverns out there as well as one of the most tricky to deal with as her strategies are never straight forward. Most know very well that if a deal from her feels too good, there is a chance she is getting the better end of it somehow.
While the North Frost Kingdom has all the usual jobs, the most common are fish harvesters and actors. Fish is a staple food as well as a trade good since other kingdoms usually do not have access to water with safe to eat fish. The occupation has only recently become popular, despite the kingdom’s use of fish over many years, but with more and more investment into it, fish farms have become more sustainable than ever.
Lots of actors in the North actually do not come from the same kingdom. Performers come from the Southwest Drow Kingdom to increase their income more than any other kingdom but can also commonly come from the West Light kingdom.
Certain days are set aside for workers to take breaks along with the regular public holidays that all Geodites celebrate. Families commonly host parties at home for relatives and friends to enjoy or they may go out to the theatre to see the latest show.
The North makes no big deal of official special occasions with one exception; the Kingdom’s birthday. Undoubtedly, it is one of the most extravagant festivals next to the West Light Kingdom’s Luminance Festival. The celebration is so well known that Geodites from other territories will even visit to take part in the fun and games. Their famous show of familiars is one of the most notable activities, bringing in many exotic pets to compete in appeal and athletics. For exotic harvesters from the South Salvo Kingdom especially, this show is definitely one to consider taking part in. They are the only ones with the license to breed certain familiars as in every other kingdom, familiar breeding is only done by the royal family rather than any of the population.
The exact opposite of the North, the South Salvo Kingdom is located close to the Volcanic Underground, causing it to be one of the hottest, driest kingdoms. Unfortunately for them, those from the Salvo do not have a very good reputation. Cheap prices and rickety homes cause many to move there when they are struggling. In turn, the overall wealth of the kingdom is fairly low as is the patience of its residents.
