The chief, or Dunastis of Clan Sunrider
in 1850AH or so; he is known for his extreme

- Scion Sheridan (sohn SHARE-ih-dan)

- Sharyandro Emis
-
The young nephew of Rus Niak, the First Counsel
of Lirwhin, and Rus Niak's heir. Sharyandro Emis famously survived as a

Succession Wars, giving his
uncle needed intelligence about Priascialla
while trapped inside the White City. Now in his late 20s (born 2200),
Sharyandro Emis is a diplomat tasked with
Topside's commerce and tourism, a
sinecure for a young man of his brilliance and insight. Sharyandro
Emis is probably the only real match in the Kiassan Empire for Rus Niak.

730-791AH. Ruled, 771-791AH. Notable for outlawing the Machinist Cult.
- Captain Shen Corronal
-
The Captain of the Guard for the Moondancer
patriarch, Lukas Moondancer.
- Lady Sherreen
-
Around 180BH, a noblewoman named Sherreen, of an unknown House, left Priascialla and set off west. A year later,
she re-emerged having set the White
Road and struck some kind of deal with the Wilds that would allow human habitation and
exploration within sharply defined limits. Until then, any human leaving
the Perimeter was fair game for the
beasts of the Wilds, but after her pact, humans were allowed into the main
part of the forests and even allowed to make villages outside the
Perimeter. Any humans who break the rules the Wilds have set are usually
destroyed by creatures in the Wilds, but the Wilds turns a blind eye to
anything in the forests around its territory.
A group of people still follow her philosophy and precepts. They call
themselves Preservationists.
Many others call them "The Cult of the Lady Sherreen". They are not in
the least Haranite, though not hostile to it.
The Haranite faith wouldn't mind if they'd vanish, though.

T
- General Tathis Skydancer
-
The first of the Stardancer dynasty. Renamed himself Stardancer,
declared himself Emperor in 20AH, and took possession of

widow and several sons to ensure an unbroken line.
- Duke Teodor Welleslan of House Barrister
-
Born 2155, Duke Teodor controlled Valrona
and the Verdantis Forest. He was tried
and executed in 2213, after the Succession War of 2212, for
collaboration with Tiramovar.
- Tiramovar the Usurper
-
The ruler of Bilashe. Tiramovar (born 2172 - died 2212) arose as
the High Priest-King, and, acting on directions from his god,
Sernis, invaded
Priascialla during the
Eclipsal Festival of
2212. Later that year,
Kira Stardancer, his onetime captive, broke free
with help and retook her rightful throne, and killed him in the process.
- Mayor Lucion Tollis
-
See here for more info about this
seemingly bumbling, rotund city official. Nominally in charge of the
city of Weston, he's been in power since 2218
and seems likely to stay that way, thanks to his strategic alliances
both with the Flameholdan Guard
stationed there, and the clerics of the Church of
Haran. He is a known Imperialist who somehow manages to convince
Independents that he's still got their interests at heart; so far he's
won every election that's come to pass since 2218 (10 total so far).
Maybe nobody else wants the job?

over an abbey built at the site of a supposedly miraculous spring far
west of Priascialla.
- Archbishop Treon Farwise of House Serebren
- The religious leader of Valrona, with
the Haranite faith. He's not a fanatic, but
he doesn't tolerate what he perceives as heresy. He is in favor of
an inquisition or (something more palatable to the upper classes) a
"confessional" system, but so far lacks the clout to make it happen.
See here for much more info about the
good Archbishop.
