Ludus Moderatii

The Ludus Moderatii is the largest coalition of warriors of entertainment within the Valoren regions. Boasting not only connections and a massive school hosted by the greatest gladiators of the generation, they also have built their headquarters around a massive amphitheaters that hosts some of the largest and bloodiest wargames and combat theater that has ever been performed.

Formed in 97 FV when King Korinth II outlawed slavery and humanoid trafficking in the lands of Valoren, when those that took to the lifestyle of arena combat decided to form it into a proper profession. The name of the Ludus Moderatii carries renown to the far reaches of Ahrd, many citizens fond of their summer games and decathlons that travel to ten locations in all of the regions of the continent every 5 years.
