====== The Kingdom of Scorn ======

Nestled snugly in a sheltered bay at the west of the Imperial Highway, Sco
rn is a safe and welcoming place for those who pass by.  Once a great mili
tary force whose power affected the entire world, its influence has since 
waned, the castle in the centre of town now serving a mostly ceremonial pu
rpose.  Nonetheless by virtue of its position on the Imperial highway the 
city has maintained its importance as a stopping off point for travellers 
between the other major cities and it is an attractive location for trade 
and commerce in its own right.  This combined with the sheltered harbour a
nd key shipping lines, ensures that Scorn remains a key crossroads bustlin
g with activity, long after its former military dominence has diminished.



===== Overview =====

Scorn is a great starting map for newer players and/or charaters, and even
 mid level characters. In the southern section, there are several maps sui
table for lower level players, such as the Beginners Areas 1 and 2. In the
 south eastern corner there is a tower with progressivley harder monsters,
 good for leveling ones weapons skills, and even spells that affect an med
ium area.



Scorn also has maps for characters up to levels 20, mainly the Old city qu
est, which involves exploring extensive areas of underground Scorn and the
 Aminal Quarentine which introduces characters to many medium level monste
rs. Also, in the docks to the north, there is transportation to Pupland, a
n ancient lost island, whose quests all interconnect into larger ones.



Also for very high level characters, there is a quest to gain kingmanship 
of scorn, but it is very difficult, and will take a while to complete. A l
evel 10 character should be able to complete the first 2 to 3 quests, but 
may need to level past 20 to finish it.



In the countryside surrounding Scorn, there are also a large number of map
s hidden in the hills that give the player a chance to explore, but to sti
ll stay in Scorn.



===== History =====

**435EK**: The colony of Skorn was founded by [[skud|Skud the Great]], whe
n his expedition reached the shores of the continent.  It is said that he 
first pitched his tent on the site where the inn now stands.

city|Old City]].



**1177EK**: War of the Sea Princes. The last imperial ship reaches Scorn.
