NATION CARD

Name: Kingdom of Hegathe

Location: Hegathe

Flag: Hegathe Flag.

Ruler: King Arthago al-Arch

Special Unit: Knights of the Bloody Horn, colloquially known as Bloodhorns, are an elite order that serves the ruler of Hegathe. While they are called knights they prefer the name Sword-Swingers, as they claim to follow the old Yokudan Way of the Sword. Trained from their youth in the duelist fighting style of the order, the warriors are completely dedicated to their swordsmanship. As such members of the order often do not marry or have kids, saying that they are married to their blades. These elite warriors are known throughout Hammerfell as arguably the best infantry in the province.

Background: The oldest kingdom in Hammerfell, founded when the Ra Gada Warrior Wave first came to the land that is now known as Hammerfell and conquered the city from the elves that built it. For many years Hegathe was the capital of the province, before it was moved to Sentinel. It is still the main city of the Crown faction of the Redguards and a major port city on the coast, though it is not nearly as wealthy as Sentinel or the other Illiac cities. It survives mostly through trade with the Empire and the southwestern cities of Tamriel and has a competitive relationship with Port Hunding for this trade.

Because of its geographical position the city is well defensible. To its south is the sea and to the north is the Alik'r Desert. The only viable places to attack the city are from the east or west, since the city has a rather strong naval presence.

Backstory: A member of the illustrious House al-Arch, an ancient house dating back to the First Era that claims to be descendants of the old rulers of the Yokudan city of Arch. His grandfather had been king during the Great War and as such was there when the Forebears saved Hegathe from a Dominion siege, making him greatly respect the Forebears. Arthago, however, wasn't even born back then and as such doesn't hold any love for the Forebears because of their past deeds. He in fact hates them for their dismissal of the old Yokudan Ways, something the Crown-aligned Arthago greatly believes in.

He is a Zealous and Proud individual and very strict to the old Yokudan ways. As such he dislikes the current Forebear led Ra Gada Commonwealth and wishes to usurp the position of Consul from Haytham Tanul and bring about a restoration of the Yokudan ways throughout all of Hammerfell.

The King is currently widowed, his wife having perished during a trip to Port Hunding when her ship was caught in a storm. Though he had two children with her before she died, a son named Frandar and a daughter named Rijja. He also has a brother, whom leads the Bloodhorns, named Sameq the Celibate.
