The Storm Islands, an island nation located in the eastern Alandor Sea, are ruled by Svendir Bedjar from his great hall in Boturheim. The main industry is whaling, integral to the cultural and economic life, with societal values emphasizing strength, honor, and reverence for ancestors. Svendir Bedjar, known for slaying the largest whale ever recorded, prominently displays the whale's skull over his seat in the great hall.
Historically, The Storm Islands have engaged in violent conflicts with the pirate clan Ironriser, based in Blood Haven to the northwest. Conflicts have stemmed from piracy, infringement on whaling territories, and raids on Storm Islands’ settlements. Svendir Bedjar's most notable achievement is his year-long campaign on the Alandor Sea, where he actively hunted and fought against Ironriser pirates, culminating in an indefinite cease-fire agreement conditioned on the pirates refraining from entering his waters or conducting raids on territories under his protection.
Although The Kingdom of Alandor, led by King Vizirond III Tarnhem, played a significant role in combating the pirate threat to secure trade routes, the official narrative maintained in The Storm Islands credits Svendir Bedjar primarily. This narrative fosters strong bonds of honor and friendship between The Storm Islands and The Kingdom of Alandor, enhancing their mutual defense and strategic alliance.
