Kingdom (CTD)

A Kingdom is a type of Fief; a division of Changeling politics and geography.

Overview

The kingdom, whether it is the great Kingdom of Concordia or one of the smaller kingdoms that make it up, is the largest building block in Kithain society. It is no surprise, then, that it is the most difficult to rule. Schemers, malcontents and social climbers (noble and commoner) abound, and many monarchs show signs of grumpdom before their time. In many ways the monarch is the kingdom; in the Dreaming the environment reflects the nature of the ruler in physical terms. See below for more complete descriptions of individual kingdoms.
