Red Mountain’s Side

Seivalt Rodrick Trelawney, the Tyrant of Red Mountain and the Exiled Yet Rightful King of the Trelawney Kingdom

Description: Seivalt Rodrick Trelawney is a very, very old man who was one of the End-Game Raid Bosses before the first expansion came out for The Game. Unlike some others who Vaile tamed, Seivalt did not seek a way to prolong his lifespan and it is likely that the only reasons that he is still around are that he was too stubborn to die before Vaile ‘came back’ and that he was still partially regulated by the rules of The Game.

Seivalt would have been a giant of a human when he was in his prime, but now he is a feeble old man. Despite his loss of vigor and physical power, he still outclasses a good number of S Rank adventurers in terms of sheer power and his long lifespan has let him train himself to perfection in both mind and body. While the body has withered, the mind has not, and it is due to this that the Tyrant of Red Mountain has been able to pull the right strings and establish a criminal empire.

He has been playing the long game, moving pieces into place for longer than any other human has been alive. His end goal seems to be the takeover of the Trelawney Kingdom and the installation of Vaile as its monarch. He views his criminal empire as a means to an end and a necessary evil to be done for the sake of his master.

Nora Vandel Trelawney, the Second-in-Command to the Tyrant and the Hybrid Battle-Mage Extraordinaire

Description: Nora Vandel Trelawney is the descendant of Seivalt and the current second-in-command of the Red Mountain Bandits. She has some traces of her ancestor’s blood in her and therefor have potential and power that more than exceeds that of any normal member of The Races. She has a body that would be to die for, with lightly tanned skin and a quite fit body. Not overly muscled, she looks like a hardcore female adventurer with a more close-quarters martial combat style of fighting, yet she is also quite proficient in magic.

She fights dirty, as one would expect from an outlaw, and uses a mixture of various underhanded tactics such as throwing poison in the eyes of her foes or making subtly seductive movements to distract her enemies. She would do anything to help win the long game that her family has been playing against the Trelawney Kingdom, and if that means using cruelty and malice then so be it.

Despite her outwardly crass and rude appearance and tone, she actually has, like every other female member of her family, been waiting for Vaile to ‘come back’. She secretly and obsessively fangirls over him, despite never seeing him up till now. She grew up on the stories Seivalt told her about their master, and while some of them may have been ‘slightly’ exaggerated she believes every word.

Usually wielding a pair of one-handed repeater crossbows for ranged engagements and a pair of handaxes for melee, she fights like a wild beast. This is fitting, because over the millennia that passed since Seivalt arrived or perhaps awoke in this world his line has intermingled with no small number of various members of The Races. It is said that she has the good qualities of every Race, yet none of their drawbacks, making her a foe that should never be underestimated.

Duke Malvyn Tuko Packard, the Hidden Blade Aimed at the Royal Family

Description: Malvyn Tuko Packard may seem to be a normal, human-supremacist noble in the Trelawney Kingdom, yet he and his line are some of the oldest pawns in the Tyrant’s game. He acts the way he does not out of actual distain or hatred for Werean, Elves or Dwarves, but out of the knowledge that doing so brings him and his line closer to the Royal Family of the Trelawney Kingdom.

He and his family are more than willing to be wiped out in the purges that will come after the Seivalt and Red Mountain take over the Kingdom. He and his line made their peace long ago. Every action he takes is for the sake of ending the cruel and oppressive regime that has his homeland in a tight iron fist. His family have become Dukes after many generations of maneuvering and engaging in terrible evil, and now they have themselves right where the rightful King needs them to be.

Malvyn merely waits for the go ahead to kill the royal family. After generations of evil and sadism done in order to keep from being found out, Malvyn and his family are ready for it to all end and their souls and that of their ancestors to be redeemed for their actions. They know the truth of the old saying, ‘Sometimes good men must do evil things to stop evil men from doing even worse things.’

Trelawney Kingdom’s Side

Zayrek Narude Trelawney, the Idiotic, Genocidal and Supremacist King who Rules a Nation of Idiotic, Genocidal and Supremacist Maniacs

Description: Zayrek Narude Trelawney is, for all intents and purposes, a sociopathic psychopath. His family has stood at the top of the Trelawney Kingdom for ages and have imposed their Human-Supremacist viewpoint on the whole of their Kingdom for as long as anyone can remember. He, like his predecessors, is on very poor relations with the nations that surround his lands. This is due to the wars that he has waged with them in an attempt to destroy the ‘inferior’ Races.

As no other nation really wants anything to do with his, his family, and the families of his nation’s nobles, have been interbreeding for far longer than any of them rightly should have. In his family’s quest for genetic perfection, Zayrek was born with practically everything wrong with him. He is paranoid and sickly, practically impotent and has the intelligence of a child despite being an adult. He recently became engaged to a new Queen from another Kingdom, a Queen and kingdom that Vaile shares some less than pleasant history with.

He may be king, but his advisors run the nation, occasionally letting his childish whims be made reality just to appease him. In his mental state, he is unable to see the tendrils of Red Mountain creeping through his nation.

Not that the advisors, the ones with actual power in his nation, are doing anything about it anyways…

Japhe Arre of Dolte, the Leader of the King’s Advisors and the Most Incompetent Person to Put In Such a Role

Description: Japhe Arre hails from the distant desert city of Dolte and only got his position by being in the right place at the right time. Or so he claims. He is so incompetent at his designated job that when he actually does it things tend to go poorly for all involved rather fast. Of course, the only thing he is good at is being corrupt and malicious.

Whether it be embezzling national funds, creating heartless and sadistic laws, arranging the purging or enslavement of non-humans, Japhe Arre truly shines. But try and get him to do what an Advisor is supposed to do, and he falls flat on his face. He truly epitomizes what his Kingdom is; cruel, malicious, despotic and oppressive, but also utterly incompetent at doing anything else. It is almost as if he has a devil on his shoulder telling him what the worst things he can do would be and how to implement them.

In fact, the only reason his adoptive nation even stays afloat financially is due to the institutionalized oppression of the other Races. And don’t get me started on women and minorities. Or, for that matter, those the regime calls, 'Sexual Deviants'. Those that ignore the warnings and come to Trelawney can only expect the worst, and boy will they get it.

There are rumors that he has connections to a hellish monster of some kind or an evil deity or deities, but such rumors quickly cease due to their advocates going missing in the night. The only part of his whole outfit that puzzles people is his staff, whose head is a reddish magicite crystal. It is said if you look into it hard enough you can see countless faces swirling about. Not that anyone has ever managed to get more than a quick glance before getting their head bashed with it.

No one has ever been invited into his personal room and emerged in the same way they entered, be they male or female, all exit as 'changed' people. Even the maids that are supposed to clean his room in the castle seem... off. As though they are shells of their former selves. Like puppets, dancing on strings. Whatever force that is in his room is too terrible to mention, and seems to need a reletively constant supply of victims. Jaffe Arre has lured people from all over the Kingdom to his room, and they all emerged as changed people. You can imagine the rumors that grew from that, but those who spread them end up dead. Or worse.

Natalie Malavinge Stronveil, the Bitch Who Started All of Vaile’s Troubles and Whom He Calls ‘Puke Princess’

Description: The one who shall forevermore be known a ‘Puke Princess’ managed to heal her face and end the pain that wracked her due to a certain Rattan Female doing some not-so-nice things to her. Her Kingdom has kept silent about how this came to be, but with Puke Princess being the only surviving member of her bloodline left and having developed acute paranoia due to her brush with death, she has no other option than to find a husband to keep her line alive.

Unfortunately for her, everyone was either taken or wanted nothing to do with a woman who still had scars left from where her face was ripped off. No one save Zayrek Narude Trelawney. Due to the terms of her engagement with him, their firstborn son would be the heir not of the Trelawney Kingdom but of hers. Naturally, this did not sit well with the mentally challenged monarch and now not only is their marriage teetering on the brink of collapse, but their nations are preparing for an eventual war with each other.

However, so long as Puke Princess, who is now a Queen, is stuck in the Trelawney Kingdom she and her nation will not be able to do anything. All she can hope for is that a window of opportunity opens so she can flee.
