Kingdom of Ethukoth

A massive walled city of one hundred thousand “documented” inhabitants. The entire city butts up against an age-ed outcrop formation at the base of the Dragon Mountain’s southern-most ridgeline. For centuries, this center of commerce has stood as an example for rest of the kingdom. It is split into two distinct sections. Two thirds of the city lies against the mountain side. The other, “One-Third” lies underneath the mountain.

In the event of a siege, the main castle, can be lifted up the mountainside via heavy chains pulled by giant trolls employed specifically for this monumental task. The castle is lowered and lifted depending on the will of the sitting ruler. Daine Brasthoc, 15th King Regent, a Halfling Male, ten years of age, currently sits upon the thrown after the murder of his father and mother at the hands of the Blood Queen. He rules with the help of the King’s Advisors, a sect of the House of Advisors; as well as his various military generals.

A note about the “One-Third”. This is the underbelly of Ethukothian society. The Eastern Thieve’s Guild, among other smaller nefarious organizations, rule here. That is not to say that Daine and his military might do not hold sway over this section of the city, they do, but the Eastern Thieve’s Guild (ETG) has their fingers in everything that happens in the One-Third, as well as the Kingdom of Ethukoth and the continent as a whole.

Farmland (both agricultural and beastery in nature) dot the rolling landscape. This is a very fertile part of the Kingdom. Massive water runoffs from the Dragon Mountains bring nurturing elements that help the land to thrive. It is a prime reason why the Blood Queen would love to obtain and exploit the Kingdom for her own clandestine affairs.
