Of Skor

== Aerim Family ==
The Aerim family are the divinely appointed rulers of Skor (and arguably, the Valley itself). Thyr, the god of kings, is himself the first Aerim, and the Aerim family are his direct descendants. 
Queen Illden Aerim: Illden is a half-gnome, with purple eyes and dark hair. She was born when the Aerim family was at its lowest point, and was unfortunate enough to lose both her parents at a young age. With the family in disgrace, Illden was forced to fend for herself, and eventually became a scribe.
In 1790E, Illden took the throne of Skor, and has done a good job of slowly restoring both Skor and faith in the crown.
== Weyld Family ==
The Weyld family are historically fill the role of royal guards and royal enforcers. As the crown has been restored, they've come down on the right side of history and been rewarded for their loyalty.
Lord Ironclad Arthus Weyld: As the current head of the house, Arthus is in charge of many aspects of Valley politics. A human man in his 70's, Arthus is the model Skorrian gentleman. Kind, polite, generous and proud, Arthus is almost always seen in fine clothes to match his well-cut dark hair.
Arthus is in charge of ironclad Goods and Services, as well as organising the elite units of the Skorrian army (including the Royal Guard and the illustrious Purple Ribbon Knights). For all the power he wields, he manages a friendly demeanor. His ultimate aim is to restore the Skorrian navy, and open naval trade with the dwarflands
Lady Elstice Weyld: Arthus's wife, and the model noble lady. She enjoys reading, pursuing artistic expression and organising fancy theater. While she is theoretically a lady of leisure, she's responsible for promoting and funding much of Skor's high culture.
Dakra Weyld: Arthus's Uncle, and previous patriarch of the house. Now in his 80's, he's content to sit in his manor house, read books, and drink brandy.
Houston: A black-haired lanky catfolk, Houston is Dakra's partner and lifelong friend. The story goes that they met during one of Dakra's campaigns in the south, and have been inseparable ever since. For all that, little is known about Houston, and they keep out of the public eye.
Ellard Weyld: Arthus's Son, Ellard is a good natured man that takes after his father, but lacks his confidence. Ellard is the youngest of three, and expects to be married off for political gain. He's content with this however, and puts most of his effort into a study of history. He's written a few papers of his own and is quite highly respected in scholarly circles for his insight.
General Rosiland Weyld: The commander of Skor's armies, the young warrior took command in 1790E, at the age of 18. Her youth is no barrier however, as she's unquestionably the most competent and skilled military leader Skor's seen in a long time. She's held back by her vitriolic dislike of politics and courtly affairs. She has her detractors among the more Thyrian members of Skor's elite as well, as Rosiland is not one for laws and rules, and would prefer to do everything her way. It is often said that's she's the best daughter of Muir to ever be born to Thyr.
== The Church of Thyr: ==
High Priestess Ellis Sarem: Illden’s right hand, and permanently in need of a nap. Ellis is a model Thyrian priest: Well dressed, charismatic, and wise beyond compare. Between keeping the church together and helping Illden run the state, she is constantly busy, but maintains throughout the grace expected by her station.
== Ironclad Goods and Services ==
The Vet: Joining you on your initial trip to Lycia was the grouchiest aberdeenian you’ve ever met, who people just call “The Vet”. The Vet has only 6 fingers left, and a network of scars that show a lifetime spent around animals that kick, bite, and gore. Their job is to make sure that the hundreds of horses are safe and happy.
