Scapelt

The Kingdom of Scapelt is one of older nations of Markoth. Originally one of the strongest regions in Awyinn, The Nartell Family was gifted rule shortly after Tarvala's assassination. They've held the region fiercely for many generations.

Homeland
Scapelt is situated on the border of Imperial territory. The region also backs onto the Huleon Forest, as well as a mountain range to the east. The role of Scapelt is an important one, being the only nation for many years preventing the Raga Clans from pushing north and destroying Queten and Haverly to the north.

Races in Scapelt
All races are welcome, though Half Elves and Beastmen make up the majority of inhabitants.

Full Overview
Few nations of the Royalist alliance are as prepared for war as Scapelt. With constant military posturing and continuous training, Scapelt boasts a very skilled house guard. Unfortunately their numbers are incredibly low, with only a fractional army size when compared to Camdoria, Scapelt’s sole duty is to protect the shrine to Markoth, which lies in the Cradle of Creation to the South-east.

Scapelt also trains and houses many of the skilled rogues and assassins within the Alliance, the guild houses there are constantly in action.

The Nartell's take an active hand in their regions workings. With constant meetings, public addressing and taking court time for requests from their people, the Nartell's are seen as fair and just rulers.

Culture
Culturally, Scapelt has a few different customs and laws. Some of the most prominent examples being;
 * 1) Blind Justice - When accused of a crime, the accused can request a trial via blind justice. Blind justice puts the accused and the accuser (or an accuser's proxy) in a pit together with knives. Both combatants are blinded with hoods, and must kill their opponent. Should the accused make it out, they are considered immune to further pursuit in the matter.
 * 2) Outsiders must report their presence to a town guard captain immediately to be registered visitors. Travelers discovered within Scapelt unregistered, will find themselves arrested and punished.

Relationship with other Subfactions
Scapelt has strong ties with Theron, having fought alongside Theron and assisting them in much of their work. Theron and Scapelt are often seen working closely in the field, as well as being noted talking to each other before casting their electoral votes.

Scapelt is also considered friendly with Camdoria, Dagafall, Drazin, Emeralton, Haverly, Lansreach, and Queten.

The Raga are often an issue when it comes to protecting the shrine. Having constant conflict with The Raga clans puts them at odds with House Nartell. All efforts to come to an understanding over the shrine have ended in Raga bloodshed.

History of Scapelt
Scapelt was formed and House Nartell was gifted the land immediately after the assassination of Tarvala. With a crest bearing stark resemblance to the events that took place, many Imperials believe the Nartell family had a hand in the Emperor’s demise.
