(Thank you.)

 Name: Kingdom of the White Oak

Location: Chorrol

Flag: Seal of Chorrol on a flag. The white tree is typically seen atop a black backdrop, though a blue variant isn't uncommon.

Ruler: Parius Vespian

Type of Rule: Monarchy

Courtiers: Harlan Estherlain (Chancellor), Iagun Brumli (Marshal), Vienno Couteau (Steward), Fiora Vigo (Court Wizard), Varus Aquila (Court Spy).

Predominant Religion: Imperial Pantheon

Predominant Culture: Imperial Culture

Resources (2 max during start): Ore, assorted fruits and byproducts. (eg. wine.)

Special Unit: 7 Spectres. Elite agents of the White Oak led by Varus Aquila himself. Whether it's rigging elections, assassinating prominent figures, inciting riots, sabotaging enemy siege equipment, deceiving enemies with disguises, or 'persuading' scouts to turn a blind eye; the Spectres can carry it out. Masters of all forms of espionage from stealth to deception, the Spectres are the go-to units for a more subtle approach to things. That being said, they're useless in an actual war. There are only 7 Spectres due to the selectivity of the espionage organization, and the scarcity of people who can come close to matching the spymaster Varus in skill. They take 6 months to train, and more cannot be made if all 7 and Varus are killed.

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;margin-bottom:0px!important;">Bio: Parius was more or less born and raised in the courts of Chorrol, listening in intently and adopting the clever, subtle ways of diplomacy at a young age, and as such, usually had his way in a non-confrontational manner. He lived a fairly lavish childhood, his father being the king, and learned swordplay from the finest fencing instructors his father could afford. Though he did end up demonstrating a gift for it, he preferred to solve conflict with words rather than weapons. In his teenage years, Parius was fed up with life in Chorrol Palace, and ventured out into the world to travel and find his own way for several years. By the time he'd returned to the city, he was almost a completely different person with a myriad of experience under his belt. However, his father had died while he was gone, and left squabbling nobles looking to usurp his throne in his place. Parius ended their bickering through careful diplomacy and deception, and claimed his rightful throne for himself.
