Let's try this again. Let's build a kingdom together, /tg/. Any comment is true, provided it doesn't contradict any previous comments. No magical realm, no fucking powerman.
>>
1 and every 10 civilians are werewolves.
>>
>>44285595
So... all of them?
>>
>>44285614
FUCK
One IN every ten. Sorry. My bad.
>>
>>44285467
The place is blessed by the gods of war and law respectively.
>>
>>44285467
Repeated numbers in houses gives good luck
>>
>>44285467
Being a werewolf is a sign from the gods that you are a favored disciple of both gods and the werewolves are far stronger than normal humans.
>>
The queen is an orc
>>
>>44285954
She is strong of body and mind and has brought some of her clan with her into the kingdom, ensuring peace with the other orc clans.
>>
There is no king, and a council of advisors is maintained as a form of parliment.
>>
>>44286037
>the queen is an orc
>>
>>44286061
No king, doesnt mean no monarchy.

>>44285467
It's situated in a marshy low lying river delta

The main economy is based around cash crop farming, and due to the allure of profits, the mages guild has a high stake in this, using all forms if magic to harvest and sow.
>>
>>44286165
The cash crops are actually common alchemical ingredients, and as such, alchemy is common practice in the city.

>>44285595
Werewolf...ism isn't a specific condition - rather it is a blanket term for any magical curse, hex, or affliction that physically conflates humans and wolves. Some are men that turn into wolves, or wolves that turn into men, some are men with the minds of wolves, and vice versa, some are wolfish men or mannish wolves. Some types of werewolvism are transferable by bite, others are completely non-tranmissable at all.

Screaming incoherently at people is a romantic gesture.
>>
>>44285467
Death is a well-respected member of the community who makes official visits only to important people.
>>
>>44285954
Orc Queen achieved immortality through lich-dom.
>>
>>44286229
Thats a very good point, anon.

The answer is yes.
>>
>>44286037
Parliament is tricameral

One house is elected based on population allotments, one is elected based on geographic arrangement, one is appointed by the queen herself.
>>
>>44286266
Punching someone who's incoherently screaming at you in the nose is a marriage proposal.

>>44286165
Mage-Guild is an organ of the University del Magos and is primarily charged with managing the schools large endowment fund. This endowment fund allows all suitable domestic students to enroll with full scholarships.

Marshy Delta opens onto a freshwater inland sea. Rival states exist along the rest of the coast of this sea. Fractious golbinoids occupy the foothills on the farside of the kingdom from the sea.
>>
The marshes of the kingdom were cursed a long time ago - in the wilder areas, the curse still lies strong. At the edges of villages, eerie ghostlights and twisting serpents of eldritch flame dance and waver enticingly, luring the young ones further into the swamps and fens. to be dragged into the depths by river hags and worse creatures.
The cadavers of people who disappeared into the wilderness return as shambling, rotten things, infested with plants and mushrooms and animated by unholy power. Huge leeches hunt in the pools and lakes, and the logs that float in the waters occasionally lunge forth with a creaking, hissing roar to drag an unwary traveller to their death in their ragged, splintery jaws.

On certain nights, great clumps of plant matter form into humanoid shapes and march-stagger from the wetlands, accompanied by twisted masses of carnivorous plants that can swallow a man whole, engulf him in strangling roots and vines, or tear him apart with jaw-like leaves, and trees that slowly
creep forwards on their roots like giant spiders, crushing everything in their path.

At the heads of these hosts ride the Hollykings with their red-berry eyes and stag-skull helms, seated atop intricate constructions of roots resembling serpentine horses. Sometimes, these mysterious beings will grant boons to people they encounter - at others, they will throw them to their eerie host to be torn apart.
>>
>>44287044
Such a boon was how the queen achieved Lichdom.
>>
The Queen has no power over her people and serves only as a figure head.

According to the parliamentary constitution the Monarch retains the absolute authority to pass government acts and edicts independently of the assembly, such laws are prefaced 'The King/Queen enacts as follows...'. By convention the Monarch has not acted independently, except to compel new elections to break government gridlock in times of crisis and maintain her chamber of the assembly, in several centuries. Laws recommended to the queen by the combined assemblies are prefaced ''The King/Queen in council with his/her majesties government enact as follows...'.

Constitutional scholars speculate that if she decided to act independently in the current era a violent, if low intensity, civil war would immediately break out.

>>44286659
The Kingdom has, in the past, claimed rulership over several of these smaller city-states. At one point, one of the goblin clans married into the royal family, and made the bold claim that this meant the kingdom had claim over all the goblin hills. This land to the Waist-High Scourge, in which hordes of jingoistic goblins swarmed over the kingdom in indignant outrage, raiding, picketing, and writing rude slogans on various large buildings.
>>
There's a lot of giant 6ft-high toads.
>>
>>44290525
Some of these toads can speak the Common Tongue, and may hand out wisdom or knowledge.

Some of them eat people. It's a game of Toad Roulette whenever you approach one
>>
>>44285467
Bumpan for Great Justice!
>>
The kingdom should have a strong maritime tradition.
>>
>>44286229
the term you're looking for is lycanthropy
>>
>>44292748
That's the bunny. Many different breeds of lycanthropy, from wolfmen to intelligent dogs and everything in between.
>>
>>44292660
Strong Maritime Tradition with only an Inland Sea?

Okay. I guess it's like Lake Superior or some such and big enough for meaningful navigation. Maybe there's something analogous to the St. Lawence seaway to a greater ocean venue?
>>
>>44292660
Lot of riverboats and fencraft. Definitely a river patrol.
>>
>>44292873
Dude, Wait! Steam Powered Hovercraft!
>>
>>44292825
I was thinking either the Mediterranean or the Nile.

>>44292949
What is the general technological level of this kingdom? Classical, Medieval, Early Modern, Age of Exploration, Age of Sail, Steam, etc.?
>>
>>44292992
The Mediterranean is too salty and fresh water inland was established. But yeah.

As for tech levels, I guess since I invoked hovercraft I guess we got steam at least. Where do we stand of firearms?
