The Raven's Conclave

The Raven's Conclave is one of the Five Baronies that rules over the continent of Gelthis jointly. Nestled in the colder northwest of the continent in a stretch of land between the Ice Crown Mountains and the Stone Spine Mountains. The nation is known for being less then lawful as compared to the other Baronies. A discerning traveler can come to many of the large metropolitan areas of The Raven's Conclave and find nearly anything they may be searching to buy, from magical items to illicit drugs, even other lives if you can find the right people. This is due to the ruling class being mostly comprised of a single vampire clan. Their long lives and self perceived superiority over other races leads them to concern little about the day to day lives of their subjects. As long as the masses do not challenge their control or disturb the peace too much they are free to live out their insignificant little lives doing as they wish. Because of this many from the Raven's Conclave are considered to be underhanded or shifty.

History
The Raven's Conclave is one of the youngest nations formed in the Five Baronies. Started towards the end of the Lost Age the ruling family, the Greywillows, solidified power more though economic strength then military strength. They did this by being a hub for activity that other nations my consider illegal or immoral. By allowing nearly all form of worship, trade, and occupation within the nation, many organizations declared loyalty to the Greywillows. Those that did not were systematically culled or forced under their banner by the end of the Lost Age. Since its creation The Raven's Conclave has been in a constant struggle against its neighboring barony the Prexor Legion. The Legion believes that it is it's holy mission to destroy the Conclave as it is a source of immorality and evil.
