Darco’Garaith
Translated as “Home of our People,” Darco’Garaith is a tribal nation of dragonmen, divided into many clans. Covering a large territory, the clans of Darco’Garaith live hard lives and lord over their individual regions, each headed by a warlord. Vicious fighting set the Garaith free and has remained a central part of their society ever since. Claim and possession is a fluid thing in these lands as clans are quick to come to conflict with one another, using disputes as opportunities to hone skills, demonstrate valor and revel in the spoils of battle. It is common to see clan icons or markings on structures or in specific areas to show ownership of a particular clan. Individual clans and their icons are the dominate theme in architectural structures and attire. Pride in one’s clan is commonplace in Darco’Garaith and the only uniform cultural behavior across all of the nation. The generally harsh manner in which the natives embrace the theory of “might is right” could threaten to cripple the nation, but the careful cooperation of the Warlords keep the clans in line. At the head of each clan lies a warlord who is responsible for its territory and ensuring that conflicts with other clans do not escalate to needless or petty warfare. In times of nationwide conflict, the warlords of the largest clans will appoint one among their rank who is worthy to act as High Warlord. This appointment is temporary, normally ending once the situation at hand has been dealt with, but during their tenure as High Warlord, their rule is supreme. From outside of Darco’Garaith’s borders, their kingdom is perceived as a unified front with dragons and Garaith building a vast, powerful nation. The truth of this is understood by the warlords and those close to them in status and is referred to as the “Serpent Secret.”
