Who We Are

Valoria is the future. While other houses cling to ancient traditions, we forge ahead with steam power, mechanical marvels, and industrial innovation. We build the ships that rule the seas. We create the weapons that win wars. We engineer solutions to problems magic can't solve.

Dragons are impressive. Our ironclad warships are practical.

Magic is mysterious. Our steam engines are reliable.

The old ways served their purpose. Now it's time for progress.

We're not just shipbuilders. We're visionaries. Every invention. Every innovation. Every gear that turns pushes the Isles into a new age. Some call it dangerous. We call it necessary.

Our Culture

  • Industrial Republic - elected leadership
  • Inventor's guilds competing for breakthroughs
  • Steampunk aesthetic meets maritime tradition
  • Shipwright mastery unmatched in the Isles
  • "Innovate or stagnate"
  • Engineering academies producing geniuses
  • Naval pride in our technological superiority
  • Sometimes at odds with nature purists

Our History

We started as simple shipbuilders. Good ones, but traditional. Then someone asked: "What if we didn't rely on wind?" Steam power changed everything.

During the Great War, our ironclad fleet broke Rhaenor's naval blockades. Our weapons turned the tide. While dragon riders clashed in dramatic aerial combat, our ships did the unglamorous work of actually winning.

Now we're expanding. Building factories. Clearing forests for resources. Harvesting ley line energy for steam engines. House Skyrider and House Seaquill don't appreciate our methods. They'll understand when our innovations save the Isles from the next great threat.

Progress requires sacrifice. Usually nature's sacrifice. But that's the price of evolution.

Roleplay in House Sunpeak

This is progress versus tradition. This is "the old ways are dying - adapt or perish." You're building tomorrow. Sure, you're destroying some of yesterday. But isn't that how evolution works?

  • Inventor creating revolutionary technology
  • Ship captain commanding ironclad warships
  • Industrial magnate building factory empires
  • Engineer maintaining steam-powered infrastructure
  • Republic representative in political debates
  • Weapons designer arming the Isles
  • Mining foreman extracting resources
  • Environmentalist fighting FROM WITHIN for balance
  • Spy stealing rival house innovations

The Vision

One day, every house will run on our technology. Every ship will bear our designs. The age of magic and dragons will be a quaint memory. The age of industry will reign.

Are you ready to build the future?

Welcome to innovation. Welcome to House Sunpeak.

[OOC NOTE]: This card represents House Sunpeak's perspective on history and their role in the realm. Other houses may view these events very differently - for instance, dragon riders would point out that dragon fire melted iron ships and warped cannons. Embrace your house's bias IC, but remember there are always multiple sides to every story. Collaborative RP means being open to other perspectives.
