King
Crown Servants
Name | Picture | Description |
---|---|---|
Jester | Our royal chief minister, grand vizier, chief advisor and most trusted companion. He's also pretty weird and has a kind of shifty/sinister look to him. But, heh! We're a trusting sort of monarch, so it's all good (for now....). | |
Sir Lancelot | A "straight and true" knight who serves us loyally, with his 20 men, for the price of 5 gold coins per year. He will serve us so long as our rule is just and fair. Each of his knights can best any lowlier knight in single combat with ease.
Introduced on Post #38 Is currently training the townsfolk to become city guards. Post #283 | |
Construed, of the Grimm Family | Head of the builder's guild. He's the go to guy if we want to build anything.
Introduced on Post #29 We've had him build fences in the royal garden for Hirschel's herbs. Post #391 | |
Dennis, of the Frostsea Family | Head of the trader's guild, although they do not appear to be currently trading with anyone, nor do they apparently have any recollection of where places are or what we used to trade with them....
Introduced on Post #29 Currently the trade tax is set LOW. #208 | |
Mandarb | Head of the craftsmen guild. Contact him if you ever need something specific or special produced.
Introduced on Post #29 | |
Cat | Representative of the farmers. She speaks in a colloquial kind of down-home manner, and is not much for palace protocol.
Introduced on Post #29 | |
Robina | Leader of the 30 merry rangers, serves us for the price of 3 gold coins per year. Currently residing in free lodging outside of town.
Introduced on Post #343 Sent to explore and map the surrounding area spending a day in each direction. Post #372 | |
Hirschel | An old wizened herbalist who offered his assistance at no cost but for food, shelter and work. Has free reign over the royal garden and we've asked Construed to build dividing fences for his herbs and to keep out livestock.

Other People
Name | Picture | Description |
---|---|---|
Shadowy Traveler | A mysterious figure who has prophesized that bad times are a-comin'. Specifically: "Before long your kingdom will be beset by dangers untold, and it will be your task to ensure your people are ready." These dangers will come from every direction (east, west, above, below), but remain as yet unnamed. HOWEVER, on the fourth day of our rule an object will come into our possession "which will grant you the assistance of myself and others like me. Be wise and use it well, unlike the one who reigned over this land before you, for wasting such power might see your reign come to end sooner than you think." | |
Jib Ali-Gharzab of the Guaravana Family | A merchant from the south who offers ever-changing wares for sale, and is open to buying stuff from us. His expertise is negotiating the "shifting roads....past the sand-pits, deadly snakes and vicious scoprions as well as the wily naga-people who so love to ambush travellers" between the midlands (presumably Grimdark) and the southlands, of which the Emirate of Turbanistan is the pre-eminent polity.
Introduced on Post #156 | |
Sir Kevin of Axemont | An inexperienced knight who offers his services, and those of his 15 inexperienced and young knights. Post #241
Our last encounter with Kevin he called us a usurper and threatened that we better hope to not meet again. Post #270 | |
Rorik, son of Rorik | A warrior from the frozen lands in the north on a mission who seeks shelter in our castle. Post #301
We grant his wish and in return he tells us about his country. Post #318 | |
Baron of the Forkbeaks | A representative of THE FORKBEAKS, the largest and the strongest of the six pirate clans, which control the seas to the WEST.
Wants to form a friendship between our peoples, so that we might trade valuables and necessities in a peaceful manner. He also offers secure safe passage to the high seas, for the pirate clans mercilessly capture and ransom any who dare enter the waters without their permission. He gave us the gift of a Ornamental Telescope. Post #322
| |
Razathul | Sent by the "others" to deliver a black spherical gift. Post #404
After delaying him with questions we learned that Razathul, and likely the rest of the "others" as well, seem to have the ability to stop time along with some nasty side effects. It also seems that guards are useless against powerful beings such as these as they seem to stop time the moment they allow themselves to be seen. His sole purpose seemed to have been just to deliver the gift and he vanished the moment we accepted. Post #442 | |
Nobleman Jonas | Nobleman | A noble man travelling with the caravan requesting an escort on his way to the coast to the west. Post #500
After Lancelot persuades him to come to an audience, we agree to escort him, but tell Lancelot to keep an eye on him.Post #529 |
Places
Things
Name | Picture | Description |
---|---|---|
Key | Perhaps a magic key, currently in the possession of the Jester. Apparently it used to unlock a dungeon with a princess in it, and now unlocks a chest with a potion that would keep her "refreshed", but the chest has been lost so.... what's the key for, again? Post #16 | |
Ornamental Telescope | A telescope obtained from Baron of the forkbeaks as a token of kindness and friendship. It is not a functional instrument but encrusted with four valuable gemstones. Post #322 | |
Magical Object | A magical object gifted to us from Razathul and the 'Others'. Post #404
To activate this object simply stare into it when the "end is near" or "when the time is dire and your kingdom is truly in peril". Every ruler who has ruled this land has been given a gift such as this; it was said that each that used the gift wished they hadn't, and each who didn't wished they had. The previous king we usurped had not used the gift given to him. We had Jester take it to the treasury to have it put under lock and key and always guarded, just to be safe. Post #445 |
Livestock

Annabelle | The highest-prize cow of a peasant village, gift of goodwill from some DIRTY PEASANTS. Annabelle currently resides in the unkempt castle garden. |
