Jovatthon, the Castle of Thunder, is an invisible flying city-state of cloud giants hovering above Tal'Dorei, and the site of the Council of Seven Scepters after the fall of Tempestar. The city is ruled by two wedded kings, a City-King in charge of domestic affairs, and a War-King tasked with the defense of the city.[1][2]

It is covered in thick storm clouds, tracing a clockwise circular route around the continent to avoid its cloudless, arid heartland.[2]

Trivia[]

  • The first part of its name seems to derive from Jove, which seems to come from the Proto-Italic djous, meaning "sky", "heaven" or "day"; it is also an alternative form of Jupiter, the Roman god of the sky and thunder.
  • It is unknown if Flavia, an empowered cloud giant champion known as the Queen of Unending Storms,[3] is connected to this city, or if she is related to Ardokles or Vasilios.
