Krakus is lavishly
wealthy kingdom occupying the plains and forests between Sunder's
Vein and the Scarlet River north of the Zarackis Mountains. The
humans of Krakus obtained their wealth during the last war and continuing
to recent years through selling "servants" to nobles and
rulers throughout the realm. Krakus is ruled by a monarch from the
Alpha noble house of slavers. A new Alpha house is decided when
the present monarch dies or is weakened and overthrown by another
house.
The slavers
of Krakus control a relatively small area of land. Farms and ranches
are frequent in the central grasslands, as are the occasional large
city. The western forests house two of the five capitols while the
forests along Sunder's Vein and throughout the northern arm of the
kingdom house two more. The final capitol is found on the northern
sea coast.
Due to the frequent
slave trading, dozens of races live in the region. Some are free,
but rarely are anyone but humans considered freemen.
