Pucraele
Political Structure: Composite Monarchy
Language: Nordic
The Land of Pucraele is split into multiple 'holds'. Each hold is governed by a noble family that draw their heritage from the old Northern clans.
The head of these noble families choose from amongst themselves a 'High-King' who then acts as the nation's leader in times of war and for foreign affairs in general, whilst still only ruling his own hold outside of these responsibilities.
Pucraele is a harsh land, the soil not lending itself to agriculture. As such, the population numbers in Pucraele are low but their people are hardy, used to times of strife, hunger and violence.
Current Head of Family: Ashton Campbell, Current High-King
McGills, Human Clan
Current Head of Family: Murray McGill
MacKinnon, Human Clan
Current Head of Family: Connor MacKinnon
Boyle, Human Clan
Current head of Family: Jaxson Boyle "The mutant King"
Since the unification of pucraele, the The Pantheon of Haven has spread across the entire nation, though toral still remains the patron deity of the nation.
The most common form of sorcerers in Pucraele are court mages in the service of powerful warlords and clan-heads.
Dark Magic is also less regulated in Pucraele, though these folk have much less success in this cold land due to the simple absence of people they can prey on.
For a long time after that, the lands of pucraele was ruled by disparate family units and clans. A 'Clan' was essentially an extended family headed under a central authority such as a clan head or a council. The pucraele clans held territory and enforced their own laws on their lands. The clans constantly competed for power, land and influence.
The Clans had long-running blood feuds with one another but every once in a while there were too many mouths to feed and too little food and the clans were forced to band together. In these times the northerners were forced to send their men on a raiding campaign to Gallica or Ravil.
Only in response to the development of Gallica and Ravil into military powers capable of resisting the raids of pucraele did several of the larger clans unify to form the modern state of Pucraele.
Whilst the clans have over since then turned into noble families that govern over their 'holds' and are now less important than ever before, their influence still holds strong and family bonds are valued above all else in pucraele.
