Members of the Human Parliament

Marquis Charles Agravine - Marquis of the Border Margravate of Boulon, which borders on Elven Lands. General advocate of military action and expansion. Title also gives him command of the Wood Guard, elite Rangers of the Kingdom. His first wife was raped in an Elven "Border Reaving"- she died of injury and sickness not long after. Since then he has held a deep hatred of Elves, and a desire to Annex the forest border his land.

Marquesse Ysabelle Alsace - Beautiful Marquesse of the seaside Margravate of Chandre. Generally conservative regarding immigration affairs, with her Margravate being overrun of late with Merfolk and Elves, who she sees as "uncivilized". General elitist, usually more concerned with the Artistic and Cultural aspects of the nation rather than diplomacy or military, though she does find politics more interesting than she lets on. Her Margravate is the home of the Red Guard, a military/police force with Inquisitorial and Ecclesiastical ties.

Bishop Jon Balmund - Ruler of the small but holy Bishopric of Tarven. Currently 120 years old, having used three of his four allowed Resurrection spells. When not being senile or sleeping, is generally a political moderate.

Meister Bosch XI of the Shade Bound Order

Baron Brenton Desquin

Sir Choppa von Hammersmarck - Representative of the Anvils, a province populated by many Half-Orcs.

Lord Jacob Highblade - Herald of the Parliament.

Count Maximillian Janus

Lord Knight Jhonas - Representative of the freezing island of Silverkiln, one of the more heavily militarized nations of the continent. Abrasive, classist and ruthlessly pragmatic, he takes a realist's approach to politics, and rarely cares for the wellbeing of the other factions if it means advancing his own. Jhonas is the founder and leader of the Knights of the Kiln, a circle of knights famous for their slaying of the Great Dragon Phyrax, and infamous for boasting of their direct ancestry to the bloodthirsty tyrants of a now thankfully fallen empire. Although Silverkiln and its representatives hold very little sway in the politics of the lands, they are nonetheless considered a formidable military-asset.

Vicomte Marron DeLorean

Lady Mallea Moiselle

Lord Paladin Everius d'Ralin Leader of the Chivalric Order of Justice, a religious order dedicated to maintaining the spirit of the words of The Powers That Be. EG: Justice, not law, is important. Lord Ralin became head of the order 30 years ago, just before the first of a long series of crusades against the Orcs and other goblinoid empires and their death gods. Fought in the "Inhuman Rebellions" alongside the Chivalric Order (on the side of the 'Inhumans') in protest against the Inhuman Laws 40 years ago. Paladins mostly fought a defensive battle, and discouraged direct retaliation of any sort, they were instrumental in abolishing the racist laws and restoring the peace diplomatically. Lord d'Ralin has since tried to maintain this in the council ever since. He is now over 60 years of age, and is still healthy and battle ready given his strict regime and his own paladin abilities keeping him free of disease unlike most of the population.

Count Theodoric Rossler - Lord of the small island of Cairn, one of the smallest and weakest provinces of the nation. Official Intelligencer of the Kingdom. Prefers to use indirect, some would say cowardly, methods. He sees it as being pragmatic - assassinating a rebel leader means not having to slaughter hundreds. Is generally a political liberal. His title of Intelligencer gives him command over the Grey Chamber, the center of the nation's Spy Network.

Lord Ivan van der Scheut

Inquisitor Tex -While not the highest-ranking of the Kingdom's Inquisition, Tex is certainly one of the most influential. A native of Tarven, Tex is a staunch pro-humanist (though it's more accurate to say that he's just racist against elves to an unbelievable degree). He's generally the first one to suggest that the Parliament starts burning people (and elves, even if they don't count). Oddly enough, despite his hang-ups involving "those thrice-damned knife-ears" and his apparent pyromania, Inquisitor Tex has been named as "Best Witchhunter" by the Inquisition for the past 6 years.
