Wundagore is a mountain in the nation of Transia. The history of Chthon and the Darkhold are strongly tied to the mountain of Wundagore. In the Sixth Century, a cult of Darkholders led by the sorceress Morgan le Fey attempted to summon Chthon but found him to be uncontrollable. While the Darkholders were incapable of banishing him altogether, they bound him to Mount Wundagore, in what would one day become Transia. In the late 1940s, Herbert Wyndham, the man who would become the High Evolutionary, made his laboratory base at the foot of Wundagore Mountain with the assistance of Dr. Horace Grayson. Wyndham found uranium in and around Mount Wundagore and funded a national non-profit trust with the money gathered from his uranium mine, which has become Transia's main source of income. A number of smaller villages are now located at the base of Mount Wundagore. When Wyndham learned from Magnus that Wundagore Mountain, on which his advanced genetics research citadel was based, was the prison of Chthon, he decided to train his creations in chivalry and battle tactics and equip them with advanced weaponry and armor. Wyndham later converted his citadel into a spaceship, and he and most of his New Men left to explore the stars. They eventually settled on a planet, which they named Wundagore II, with the High Evolutionary staying on the planet's moon in order to look after them. Later still, the High Evolutionary returned to Wundagore and re-established a citadel there, where he evolved more New Men. Wundagore Mountain is rich with historic occurrences and origins of some of Earth’s greatest superheroes and supervillains, including the Puppet Master, the Scarlet Witch, Spider-Woman.

Board Information & Statistics

Board Description
Transia
Transia is located in Europe between Transylvania, Romania and Serbia. More than ninety percent of its people live in one large town—East Transia—and a number of smaller villages located at the base of Mount Wundagore. Transia was a former section of Wallachia before that country integrated with Moldavia in 1857 to form Romania. Transia broke with the two larger countries and established its status as an independent state, and was recognized 20 years later as an autonomous, neutral nation. Transia is governed by an elected official—burgomeister—who is bound by law to follow the country's constitution to the letter. The nation's main source of income comes from the uranium found in and around Mt. Wundagore -- Herbert Edgar Wyndham funded a national non-profit trust with the money gathered from his uranium mine that still provides money for Transia to operate its government programs, and thus they have no need of outside investors or a tourist market. This, along with the (intentionally-fostered) negative international image, keeps many foreigners out of Transia.
