Northlanders
Civil war in the northern islands erupted when a powerful, gods-touched Northlander calling herself the Storm Maiden gained a following of barbarians, pirates, and other Northlanders who longed for the days of pillaging and domination. The war ended when the Storm Maiden disappeared, her ship supposedly lost at sea.
Rault the Wise, one of the many Northlander jarls who fought the Storm Maiden, survived the war but lost many family members. Many of the remaining Northlander jarls, unwilling to bow to the Ffolk king, Derid Kendrick, look to the elderly Northlander for guidance and direction.
Rault does not have much time left on this mortal realm, and his closest relation is a granddaughter named Astrid, a powerful and charismatic warrior. Some would follow her, but the patriarchal society of the Northlanders, and the recent uprising behind the Storm Maiden, has people scared.
In the meantime, Rault has upheld the uneasy peace between the Northlanders and King Derid’s realm. Occasional light raiding and meaningful stares in seaside towns, are the extent of hostilities.
