Description
Dun Realtai is a loose affiliation of Elites who are guests, residents, or protectors of Dun Realtai, the "Fortress of the Stars," a neutral Middle Ages stronghold and village in the Tundra. Visitors are welcome from any faction so long as they abide by its rules and behave themselves; those who are protectors of the area trend towards knights, upstanding law-abiders, and Union members alike. They tend to be skilled melee combatants, although not always. Those who call themselves knights of Dun Realtai are famous for their moral integrity and their honour, as well as their compassion and their steadfast defense of the defenseless.

Territory
Dún Reáltaí is located in the Great Tundra region of the multiverse. The valley, village, and castle all share the name of Dún Reáltaí. Its territory consists of a broad hilly plain, with a stone hill in its heart on which the village and castle are built. A large lake lies northeast of the village. Due north is a tangled old forest with a lake in its midst, home to the land's original supernatural guardian.
The hill affords a commanding view of the region, surrounded by heavy curtain walls on its lower slopes. A second curtain wall circles the citadel at the top of the hill.
An illustrated map of the region is forthcoming.
History
Dún Reáltaí came about when Saber and Sir Bedivere responded to a distress call from its people, assisting them in warding off hostile elementals. After a failed coup by a warlock living in the village, the village was destroyed and a handful of survivors sought Union help to ward off the hostile elementals. The area's weakened guardian spirit awarded Sir Bedivere temporary stewardship until she could recover her powers, and during that time, Bedivere rebuilt the village and did everything in his power to help the villagers get back on their feet.
Staying on to help rebuild, Saber and Sir Bedivere were eventually awarded permanent stewardship of the region for their dedication to their temporary duties.
The Round Table
Tales of King Arthur are known even in the multiverse to a great many worlds, and their noble deeds inspire the people even centuries after their time. Most of the founding members of Dún Reáltaí are indeed Knights of the Round, as well as their King... but this is not the Round Table so many are familiar with.
King Arthur was in fact Arturia Pendragon, daughter of Uther Pendragon. Since the people would never have accepted a woman-king, she disguised herself with the help of the magician Merlin, and her gender became a secret, supported by her most trusted knights.
