Seven Army Nation? What a joke. Who in their right mind would seriously think such a thing would last. It is doomed to fail, and I for one do not intend to lose everything when it does.

- Warlord Jasper Ladjeer, Belcoast, Year 5837

Warlord Jasper Ladjeer

Of all the warlords, Ladjeer has the most contact with other nations. He also rules the biggest city of the Seven Army Nation. Due to the location of Belcoast, a big part of the trade with the outside world goes through it. Especially trade with the Kyzian Empire to the south.

Patryk Vazzir? Well, I could tell you some stories about him, but discretion demands that I divulge nothing of my clients. But you might ask Jack, he ought to know...

- Natalia Blackhorn

Warlord Patryk Vazzir

Vazzir is quickly approaching 70 years, so he was already old, when he led the revolution in 5845 that pulled Laketower from the clutches of Starkhold and made him the 9th warlord, shortly after Eric Bane became the 8th. After liberating Laketower, he has been exactly the opposite of what he was during the revolution. Passive, composed and alliance-seeking.

Elisabeth is a beaut' no doubt about it, but if you think she does her thinking on her own, you need a reality check or a visit to the clerics. So if you want to know what she is up to, you need to figure out who pulls the strings, otherwise you will never know.

Warlord Elisabeth Grimflower

Holding the eastern flank of the Seven Army Nation, Grimflower has been in charge of Highdale for more than two decades. For years now, she has been trying to convince the other warlords to form a new nation, led by a council, composed of the nine warlords.

If there is one almost honest man amongst all the warlords, it's the thrice-damned José Stark. He even does his own beheadings, for crying out loud.

- Jack

Warlord José Stark

Shrew, crafty and somewhat honorable, José sees himself as the only possibility amongst the warlords as a future king, or at least as the father of the next king. He is a proud man, and claims his bloodline goes more than 10.000 years back, to the first men of Gemnos, but no one alive can disprove that claim, so it might be a cheap one. It is however common knowledge that his family is old and that Starkhold is named after his family, as they were nobles back when it was founded, many years before the Demon Wars.

Stark is generally liked by the populace he rules over, but at the end of the day, he is still a dictator.

It's weird. Nobody speaks ill of Sophie Ran. Not out of fear, and not out of love. The people of Ironville seem fairly content, without being ecstatic about her leadership. Her soldiers see her as a good leader, without her impressing. She seems to have neither allies nor enemies. And that my lords, scares me more than anything else. No one becomes warlord without either.

- Warlord Patryk Vazzir, Laketower, Year 5847

Warlord Sophie Ran

For more than 10 years, Sophie Ran has been in charge of Ironville Crossing. When the former warlord died, she emerged from the pack of contenders and took the mantle of warlord without even shedding a single drop of blood. Since then, Ironville has been running smoothly and increasing it's influence, both in other cities and in the surrounding towns.

Warlord Grik Clogmark

I wonder how the history will remember me? The first gnome warlord? A strategic genius? The one that brought the gnome race to the center stage. Or perhaps as a monster that exterminated everyone that stood between himself and the power he wanted. Only time will tell, but I think, I know - Muhahahaha...

- Grik Clogmark, in a rare moment of honesty, Rosewall, Year 5778

Warlord Grik Clogmark

The only of the original warlords left, Grik is also the only non-human warlord. Ruling in Rosewall for a bit more than 100 years, things are exactly how he wants them to be. Most of the other warlords fear him, but none have dared attack him for decades, as the history books clearly show that doing so is inviting doom.

Unlike Warlord Tyril Kayzar, who keeps his obsession with Eletha a secret, Grik never hid the fact that he wants the elf for himself. Although depending on his mood, you might be tempted to think that he wants to own or even eat her.

Warlord Tyril Kayzar

To say the Warlord is obsessed with Eletha is an understatement. His private room, which no one but him and his servants see, is full of statues and paintings in her likeliness. He has even spent years and thousands of gold pieces not only learning perfectly inflected elven, but also collecting elven artifacts and learning everything about elven history.
- Former servant of Tyril Kayzar, Highmeadow, the day before he disappeared, Year 5838

Warlord Tyril Kayzar
Ruling Highmeadow for more than two decades, Tyril Kayzar has his aging eyes set on several things. Aside from the alleged obsession with Eletha, the Elven Queen, Kayzar has wanted to take over Lockhurst and especially the Dragonlake, with the Arcane Academy for many years. He sees the magic university as the key for a bid to rule all of the Seven Army Nation.

Warlord Eric Bane

When Eric Bane enters a room, even the shadows become silent and subdued.

- First Sergeant Viggot, Freyholm, Year 5845, a few days before he was hanged for desertion.

Eric Bane

Named after the god, Eric Bane, warlord and ruler of Freyholm, is a man of many names and few words. Called the Dark Crusader behind his back, he is feared and adored by both soldiers and populace. His unyielding quest to rid the world of magic, undead and demons both scare and excite.

Eric Bane is one of the two extra warlords, after he sparked a rebellion in Freyholm and "liberated" it from the grasp of Warlord Jasper Ladjeer of Belcoast in 5845, just four years ago. Since then, Eric Bane has been busy, and rid both the city of Freyholm and the surrounding area of magic-users and other magical beings.

Kammel? The old man might still have the biggest army and rule one of the biggest cities and once, his dream of a united kingdom instead of the 7AN might have been realistic. But he is getting old and his dream is quickly fading before the realities of the world. The question is only whether he will die before his dream..

-Warlord Sophie Ran, Ironville Crossing, year 5848

Warlord Enry Kammel

Warlord and ruler of Lockhurst, Enry Kammel is one of the most senior of all the warlords. Approaching 60, he still looks very fit and sharp, but his age is beginning to show.

For years, Kammel has been the glue holding the strategic alliance of the 9 warlords together. But while doing that, he has never hidden the fact that he believes everyone, warlords and people alike, would be better off with changing the 7AN into a nation, a kingdom ruled by the best and fairest of the warlords.

Seen as generally fair and just by most of his soldiers, the general populace under his rule tend to see him as harsh and unbending.
