History

Founding

Player HDSkipper who had spent most of his life wandering Alathra as a nomad, became tired of being constantly on the move and decided to settle in the moderate but icy land due to the Isk river which could sustain a farm, being half frozen and half liquid. He eventually started building the town with architectural influence from the nearby towns of Hanau and Haven.

Southern Union

Upon founding the town, HDSkipper decided to join the Southern Union along with Kithe. However, shortly after, the government was dissolved and Iskandar is now working with the new government of Lydoneia.
