[hider=Ser Rycherd Alistair]
Name: Rycherd Alistair

Age: 22

Rank: Noble, Knight

Title: Ser, Forsaken

Features: Rycherd, like all members of the Alistair family, has pure white hair. He keeps it cut just above his shoulders, and has dark blue eyes like his father. On most days, Rycherd wears a dark blue pants and fine shirt, embroiling along all of the seams. Over his left shoulder, and covering most of his left side, Rycherd has a dark red cape, beneath which rests the sword he always carries. 

Strengths: Like all members of the Alistair family, Rycherd is an accomplished Knight, having just recently ascending from a squire before travelling to the Capital. One of the best swordsman in recorded history of the Alistair family, few foes can hope to match him. In terms of politics, Rycherd is known to be straight forward and trustworthy, though his schemes and plots are second to none in his own home province. 

Weaknesses: Rycherd is quick to anger when his plans are foiled, or he is insulted directly. His temper has gotten him into many fights in the past, with consequences piling up. Rycherd has no grasp of magic in any sense, and he distrusts those that use it.

Bio: Born within the Hollow Hall, Rycherd is the heir apparent of the Alistair family, the ruling family of the Vrenal Province. The moment he could walk, Rycherd was forced to begin his training to become a Knight. When he reached the age of becoming, he became the Squire of a prominent Knight on the fringes of the Province, serving under him for several years. As is the nature of the Province, Rycherd became a seasoned killer and warriors during his Squireship, fighting back the tribal savages that constantly attacked Vrenal. 

It was during this time that Rycherd found his first love, a young maiden from a village he and his Knight trainer were charged with protecting. Just as things between the two was advancing, a savage attack struck fast and hard. Everyone in the village was killed, including Rycherd's love, and his Knight trainer. Enraged, Rycherd followed the tribal savages to their village, and killed everyone he came across. He called it justice, and returned to the Alistair Estates. His father, approving of his sons actions, elevated him to the full rank of Knight. The Priest of the Estates however decried Rycherd's actions, earning him the title 'Forsaken'.  

With the ascension of the new Queen, Rycherd has been sent to the court while his father deals with the backlash of Rycherd's actions back home. 

Quote: "If someone tries to lay a trap for you, spring it. They have to be there for the trap to work, and there is no better chance to kill them then when they are stuck with you."

Province Name: Province of Vrelan

Province Ruler: Lord Tiberius Alistair

Position: Located far to the east of the Realm, with most of its land bordering the Mountains.

Notable Attributes: Vrenal, as its location demands, is known for producing large numbers of warriors, especially Knights renowned across the Realm. As they are the frontline against the savages across the mountains, Vrenal's economy and industry is geared towards training and equipping countless warriors to fight back the savages invasions, and launch attacks against them before they grow too powerful. Across the Realm, it would be rare to find a regiment of any kind without a sizable portion of their ranks to be from Vrenal. 

Description: The Province of Vrenal is squarely placed against the mountain range to the east of the Crownlands, with many of their villages actually being fortified towns near the mountain passes. Other than the occasional mine and farm within the Province, Vrenal is a largely barren and lifeless land. The settlements there are filled to the brim with people too stubborn to die, and cling to life in their home against the odds. In ages past, to feed their people, the Kings of the independent Vrenal Kingdom waged wars of conquest and subjugation to get the needed resources. When they were finally defeated and conquered themselves, they came to rely heavily on food shipments to their Province.

Located on a empty field is the capital of Vrenal, the Hallow Hall. A massive castle, it used to serve as the home of the Kings of Vrenal, though now serves as the seat of House Alistair, their replacements. From this location, the large armies of the Vrenal Province are coordinated in the ever constant war against the savage tribes, while also fighting with the other Provinces politically to secure enough food and resources to keep their people alive.
