Description of Kingdom: The Uzgob is the most North kingdoms in the land. It is also considered to have one of the hottest climates and to have the most barren land. However through the exotic fruits and trading with other kingdoms Uzgob has become one of the most prosperous kingdoms despite its location. Uzgob has a natural border of a mountain range which appeared due to a giant earthquake which happened thousands of years ago; this has proved useful when invading armies are concerned. However due to the state of the land many invading armies either ignore Uzgob or usually turn back due to the little food resources. Then further north there is River Gonzo which also acts as a natural border for the dead lands.
The biggest settlement of Uzgob is the city of Andromeda. Andromeda is located in the very centre of the Uzgob Desert. Its very existence was due to the founders of the city discovering a giant underground lake they later called Eden and through this the city grew. The building structures of Andromeda are designed to be similar to Damascus during the crusades. There is a little difference between the classes due to the fact that the people have to get along to survive the desert so the classes are treated equally. The Mandarass family live in the central castle in the very centre of the city. The middle and low class live equally in city which surrounds the castle. A coliseum lies within the city as well as there where they hold non-lethal gladiator battles and sport related games in which everyone even the Mandarass family even attend. The city is then surrounded by a wall which protects it from armies. The middle class is made up of inn keepers, shop keepers, merchants, doctors and politicians. The lower class have also have merchants, shop keepers and a few politicians. Other professions are craftsman, blacksmith and gladiators and sportsmen.
Fort Scarab is located at the point where the River Null meets the sea it’s heavily fortified and holds the majority of the kingdoms navy. The fort is large enough to hold all the sailors for the ships.
Family Background: Uzgob has been under the control of the Mandarass family for one hundred years. The Mandarass family came into power through being chosen as the next family to come into power as the previous house had no living heirs. Over the last fifty years there was a troubled relation between the Mandarass’s and the Remonnet’s this was mostly due to Helyot Remonnet’s paranoia towards the family. Eventually war broke out between the families due to Helyot’s assassination of last lord of the family Uwais Mandarass. His brother Andris quickly rose to power and led the Mandarass’s to victory and killed King Helyot Remonnet himself on the battlefield. News about the Mandarass’s victory spread across the land increasing the popularity of the family. Relations between the Mandarass’s and the Remonnet’s were restored with the new king John. John made a debt to Andris promising him that he would repay Andrew for the loss which the Mandarass’s suffered.
Due to the Mandarass’s popularity the family has become a popular choice of an ally with many of the houses however with any families which were loyal to Helyot the Mandarass’s have become a targeted but the family is very well protected.
Reason of claim to the throne: The Mandarass’s believe that it is time to collect their debt by making Andris the new King. Even though Andris is content with Uzgob he willing to pursue this debt. Andris’s aims are that if he can become king that he hopes to unite the kingdoms even though this will be very hard.
