No Torphan was part of the Mirrish Empire. Back when there was a Torphan player. We worked that torphan emerged out of the southern remnates of the Mirish Empire in the before stated process. This explained several things. The organization of Torphans sorcerers, and why they don't call their leader and Archmage, and also why they have always been willing to come to meetings called by the Archmages, and why they were willing to open relations with Mir again.
Also remember that the Archmage, who the common people would have know as the Emperor, is alsot he High Priest of the Goddess Miracradsa and so her repersenative on Celandra It is very possible that the torphan Emperors immediatly following the evaculation of Mir from the continent tried to establish a similar situation, not nessiarlly with Miracradsa, and it grew beyond that into deification of the Emperors.

> sorry for not getting back to you sooner Andrew. I was fine with most of your proposal but a comment on Prince Bucerad and the army. He only had the human armies that were for cedonia and the surronding areas. Mir still had a large amount of their human army left even after the rebellion. Most of the rebellions success lay in the fact that the Council of Twelve were still fighting over a new Archmage and had openly started fighting with each other. Most of the southern parts of the Empire stayed loyal to Mir, but haveing lost the will to fight Mir created what became the Torphan Empire and Mir withdrew back to its island. Read my updated history that i sent a couple of months ago it explains most of this in more detail. If you would like I could send it again. I want it on the page but it so huge that I just have not felt up the task.
I can certainly make changes--I was trying to find a way of explaining
just how Cedonia expanded so quickly. Even if Bucerad wasn't in command
of all human armies, just the non-Mir humans, or even the
Cedonian/Selarian humans, he was in a position to subvert a lot of
people, and to take advantage of the chaos.
As for the Southern or Torphani Shore, my understanding had been that
when Mir withdrew to Celamyr, the Torphani moved in and occupied the
Shore, not that Mir created the Empire of Torphan. IIRC, Torphan was
never conquered by any MidSea nation, although they certainly had chunks
ripped off from time to time.
