Cast of Characters

This is just a glossary of the Hur's most well known people and groups.  Reading this will give you good background before playing the game.

ARCHAYA
Queen Marasha: Ruling monarch of Arcyaha.  Known for her grace and kindness.

Galland: The greatest warrior of Archaya.  Marasha sends him to the Agnarva Impass to meet invading Gilan(from Gilead) forces.

GILEAD
Emperor Ramorious: The ruling power of Gilead.  A man of cunning with a devious mind.  He ordered the invasion of Archaya after one of his ambassadors was murdered on the way back from Illum(the capital of all of Hur).

Domitian: The Emperor's right hand man.  He has turned into a brutal general since the murder of Illuminarch Darcius.  Domitian goes to Agnarva to insure victory and is in charge of "other matters" as well.

Kalaya: The daughter of Ambassador Kalsar who was murdered by Archayan assassins.  She now leads the invasion of Archaya with a vengence.


ELEA
King Darrin: The weakening leader of Elea who lost his queen early in his reign.  He dotes on his daughter Elsa.

Atrius: Long time general under Darrin, he is obsessed with the thought of someday usurping the throne.

Princess Elsa: A tender hearted girl of eighteen with a flirtacious smile and ditzy way about her.  She is the key to the continuation of the Elean bloodline.

LANSA
King Marwik: Presently, the oldest ruler in all of Hur.  Marwik has become feeble and sickly and is in no condition to guide his nation through the hard times that are coming.

GRARG
King Rajaka: A subversive and angry man.  He loves to fight and win, and will do so by any means possible.  Rajaka recently tasted blood while putting down a rebellion in his country, and now some say he has gone mad.  With Darcius gone, Rajaka is free to invade the neighboring nations of Elea and Lansa.  Though defeating such nations would be a monstrous task,  Rajaka is not worried.  He has a secret weapon..

OTHER IMPORTANT ORGANIZATIONS AND CHARACTERS
The Crestfallen: Though not officially a group, these men are some of the greatest warriors Hur has ever produced.  There were 5 Wardens(one from each kingdom), but only 4 "fell from grace".  Their names are: Arien, Lun, Arphaxad, and Palmin.

Warden Exmus: The only Warden who did not lose his position, Exmus is from the Grarg nation.  He was not held responsible for the successful assassination because at the time of the event he was helping quell a civil war in his home nation.

The Woe Ninja:  An elite ninja clan of unknown origin.  They inhabit the region of Hur known as "The Woe", a region full of dense forest and mountainess terrain, and thus their namesake.  They do not seclude themselves to this area, however, and seem to take an active interest in the major world events of Hur.  Sightings of Woe ninjas have increased since the assassination of Darcius.

The Genhari:  They roam the seas with their huge warships.  They are the law on the ocean and no one questions that fact.  Their base of operations is rumored to be on an island far away, but no one really knows for sure.  What is it these sea dwellers want?  No one really knows.
