[[File:Arcadia_emblem.png|thumb|300px|A grey wolf on a red field: the emblem of Arcadia and symbol of House Lycaos, the ruling family of the region.]]Arcadia is one of the oldest regions of the [[Achaean Empire]], and supposedly the original home of the [[Olympians|Olympian gods]] [[Hermes]] and [[Pan]]. Although considered by many to be a pastoral paradise or utopia, it is still shrouded in rumors of a darker, ancient heritage involving [[Werewolf|werewolves]], strange transformation rituals, cannibalism, and supposedly distorted images of certain Olympians.

Although Arcadians don't often leave their homeland, some have ventured out and made names for themselves - or at least gotten involved in important matters, whether they intended to do so or not, such as [[Zacynthos]]. Also, as mentioned, Arcadia is said to have been home to the gods Hermes and Pan.
