All of this will obviously be expanded upon if this RP ever gets rolling.

[b]The Kishuan Dynasty[/b] – Pronounced /Kishwen/, the dynasty is a small and resilient group made up mostly of humans and wanderers who decided to integrate with the relaxed society. Originally a nomadic group of like-minded people who weren't too fond of rigid class structures and society-imposed rules, the Kishuan settled down in a small region away from others. The region they settled in is at the mouth of a river leading from the sea into the land because of this, they have an abundant amount of resources and have no problem of scarcity many of them experienced back in their former factions. The Kishuan Dynasty's main source of income is their exports as their item of specialty is a variety of seafood, wine, and (more importantly) minerals and gemstones. The Kishuans are open and welcoming to all who venture into their land as long as they are not associated closely with a government. Resulting from this exclusion, the traders coming to the dynasty are never official merchants with close faction affiliation. The traders are welcomed into the walls with mandatory celebration and drunken feasting. The Kishuan were never fond of formalities back when they were only a beginning faction and even now when they are a dynasty. The Kishuans are ruled very loosely by a council made up of elected Kishuans advising the emperor and empress in fixing problems and bringing in new ideas. The emperor focuses primarily on trade of either raw or processed resources and the internal affairs of the dynasty while the empress focuses on external affairs and the manufacturing of resources. The emperor, empress, and council do not have all authority as they cannot maintain all of their land closely. Thus, making a group of "knights" called the [i]People's Paladins[/i] to help with the lives of the people. The Kishuan Dynasty were originally not involved in the war as they mostly kept to themselves in drunken revelry and improved their society until a faction of dwarves attempted an invasion of the dynasty's mining regions. This unsettled the Kishuans and they began patrolling their borders as well as fortifying the walls. It was when a human faction attacked later that all the Kishuans called for involvement. The paladins recruited all of age to their ranks in a surprisingly ordered fashion and began formulating plans to attack any and all known factions. The Kishuan Dynasty is mostly focused on defending their territory and protecting the people, though a small, vocal number of Kishuans are arguing for expanding their land. Half of the paladins with the support of both the empress and a quarter of the council have begun conquering the nearby land in fact. The Kishuan Dynasty is at the peace conference to either gain more or lose nothing and possibly gain alliances even though they don't like most of the governments, nobles, officials that will be attending.

[b]Kalia Emorally[/b] - [i]Empress of the Kishuan Dynasty[/i]. She is intent on not giving an inch at the peace conference. Kalia is also not as interested in forming amiable relations with the other factions. Accompanied by only her chief adviser and commander, her goal is to show the other factions that the Kishuan Dynasty are not merely drunken revelers and socially-inept criminals. She is twenty-eight years old, ambitious, malicious at times, sarcastic, cynical, and not much of a fan of celebrations to the surprise of her people. Kalia, armed with more than two decades of learning in politics and at least five daggers on her person, is ready to show everybody who the drunk criminals are.

[b]Lochlyn Darose[/b] - [i]Chief Adviser of Kishuan Dynasty[/i]. He was not one of the council members who wanted to expand and conquer; Lochlyn would rather enjoy being left alone thankyouverymuch. He is held in high esteem even though he is not the oldest council member because of the advances he has made in trading and manufacturing goods with the merchants. Going to the peace conference, Lochlyn would like to establish at least one alliance and general peace between the Kishuan Dynasty and the other factions. At thirty-four years old, he's known to host the best feasts and parties, loves to help the people, sociable, but he is rather inclusive by nature. Lochlyn is hopeful the peace conference will get the dynasty allies even if none of them will ever be admitted into their borders.

[b]Terrin Baridian[/b] - [i]Commander of the People's Paladins[/i]. She was a neutral party in the decision of expanding the dynasty and does not care much except to get everyone to calm down. Terrin would prefer things to stay the way they were before where the faction officials didn't bother the Kishuan Dynasty and the Kishuan Dynasty didn't bother them. Rising through the ranks as the most innovative paladin, she has much say in the going ons inside the dynasty. To her, the peace conference is a way to calm everybody down and get things the way they were before everything got hectic. Twenty-five years old, Terrin is calm, relaxed and informal, almost stoic, prefers the quiet of the library over the feasts, and is somehow seen by the people as a therapist or grief counselor. Taking no chances, she is going to go to the peace conference in full armor and battle regalia; it will be the one time she looks like she's going to a high-level function which she never bothered to go to before.
