Background

Warlords of Cretea are determined men who are utterly confident in the righteousness of their path to unifying the city states of their land. Premiere soldiers, the Cretean warlord is a knight without peer, a brutal combatant and a charismatic statesman when in times of peace. Usually each city-state has between one and three prominent warlords vying for militant domination of the region, working their legions to gain a superior edge against their rivals.

Prominent Sample warlord: General Aktion, leader of the expatriate forces of Turkes, is a strong-willed warlord with grand aspirations to unite Cretea under his banner. He first seeks to expunge the colonial Hyrkanians of Sandesteron, and has gone against the will of his people and leader in Turkes, after being told of a vision by the Oracle Pharisia that he was destined to unite his kingdom after she revealed to him that he was a direct blood descendant of the lost Cretean state of Pericus. He is an underhanded warlord in that no ally is to vile for his purposes, and he has even worked with drow and cultists of Ravanos to secure his planned claim on the Hyrkanian Province.
