  The Founding of Adelheid

  The land that would become the city of Adelheid lived a varied existence, starting with its purchase from the Mohegan tribe in the early 1700s then belonging to different farmers who recognized themselves as parts of different surrounding townships until a large tract was purchased by a German immigrant Martin Somebody.

  He would eventually expand his holdings into a sixty square mile tract where he would found the city of Adelheid in 1897, named for his wife. Martin himself immigrated to the United States in 1848, his wife following in 1851. He would fight for the Union in the Civil War until returning the harming and homesteading with his family until he founded the city.

  The history that we now know and are able to impart would be that Martin himself was werewolf and bought his land because of the depth of the magic energy he could feel there. He founded a town with the covert purpose of a place for people like him to come together and live in peace, and now Adelheid continues that tradition, where human and preternatural alike live and work together.
