Tamish

Tamish is the wealthy city at the heart of the Kingdom of Cerlain. It sits proudly on the River Dolma and west of the Tamish Forest. The city is one of the oldest in The Carrodian Empire, and was one of the first capitals to fall when Tholain formed the first Empire in 918.

The city has always held a healthy rivalry with Nareth, the Tholain capital, as the most powerful city in the Empire. It maintained this position even through the years of the Imperial house of Antaurus, whose home was always the city of Mercunum in Antaurus.

Organisations

Imperial Archaeological Society

The IAS in Tamish has responsibility for digs across Cerlain, but is co-ordinated from Malberina (Antaurus). They have no digs in the Jorlinum mountains, although they have a call-out for new money for one site, plus one extra one that campaign 3 has uncovered.

Dig sites up for sponsors:

  • An old mineshaft far to the north and east of Tesmius, about twelve miles over the Jorlinum border, and thirty miles east of Tesmius. It's proximity to Tesmius and the list of sites that Jorlinum has means it's more convenient for the IAS to support this one through Tamish.
  • In the hills north of Cavonry, about midway between Cavonry and Relisum, a sheep herder discovered an underground entrance inside a cave. It's probably pre-disaster, and with the apparent trappings of a buried tomb, or suite of tombs. Undead have been dealt with just outside the cave (only 3 skeletons, but still dangerous to a shepherd) where this was found, but nobody has gone inside yet.

Personnel:

  • Dario Carrasco is the IAS leader here, he's quite a salesman, but is so keen he often spends time away from the office investigating potential sites. The PCs may hear of him, but seldom meet him.

  • Bartolo Archuelta, one of the main records keepers, a bit of a bookworm

  • Matro Gurule, a junior scribe and recorder for digs. Quite often has been lumbered with the job of recording on-site activities, but is not really cut out for it. It says 'junior' in his title - but he's in his mid-thirties (which is still a junior according to some historians).
