Established by the Virginia Company of London as "James Fort" on May 4, 1607 it served as the capital of the colony of Virginia for 83 years.
As a settlement it had a violent, turbulent beginning and television viewers were given an insight into this in the BBC drama series of the same name.

His future confrontation with other mystical force named Realm promises much and is a sure lead into a crisp, well-researched storyline
