Growing up she was found to have an affinity for medicine, as when she was young, she had a Nanny that was a healer of the plebians and taught Kiera much, sensing that the redhead had the strength, kindness and heart that was needed to be a good healer. And after saving the life of one her fathers prized hunting dogs, she was allowed to continue her medical training with the blessing of her father. The physicians of Latium took her in and trained her well, along with the Nanny teaching her the more simple things the medicine women of the plebians knew, which was very different than what the Physicians knew, 

At the death of the Empress SeaAnna of Latium, she attended the Mos Maiorum Festival to honor the woman and she took this opportunity to learn about both Alban and Norveg, While doing so, she met a handsome Jarl, Sven, son of King Ivar, who took a liking to her and invited her to learn from the Healers of Norveg. She came to Norveg and they eventually married. 

Her sister, Queen Nylaria, was on her deathbed after trying to give her husband, King Henrich, a son. At the King's request Kiera returned to Alban in an attempt to save her sister, but it was too late. Upon her deathbed, Nylaria insisted that Kiera take her place as his wife and Queen, seeing her as someone who could be a good ruler with her compassion and caring.

Sven, having a deep understanding of the complexities of political alliances and strategies of the lands, recognized the necessity of allowing Kiera to pursue a marriage that would serve the interests of her family, and her realm. By releasing her from their union, he enabled her to wed the King of Alban, thereby honoring the dying wish of her sister, Queen Nylaria.

Princess Grace, 20 years old, daughter of Henrich and Nylaria,
Princess Grace Brenthorne grew up amidst the opulence of palace life, where her whims, within reason, were met. She was taught to play the harp, read, write, and even grasp the complexities of mathematics, though she despised those lessons. She was also educated in law, procedure, and etiquette, crafting a persona fit for royalty. Behind closed doors, Grace was a sweet and loving girl. In public, however, she presented a stoic and emotionless facade, living a life split between two contrasting realities. She adored her father and harbored a secret longing to be more like her sister, Elina.
The death of her mother almost shattered her. Grace secluded herself in her room for days, venturing out only to attend the funeral. Just as she began to come to terms with her loss, her life was upended once more. Her beloved aunt became her stepmother, creating a tumultuous blend of love and resentment within her. She felt torn between rebelling against the idea of a new mother and striving to please the aunt she adored. Grace found herself isolated, struggling to navigate this new dynamic. Her only confidant was her pet dog, Sigil. In the privacy of her room, Grace would pour out her heart to Sigil, confessing her inner turmoil and the pain she kept hidden from the world.

Deceased  Nylaria Brenthorne, former Queen and mother of Elina and Grace


Fomer wife of King Henrich and the sister of the former Emperor Brenwith Dunbarrion of Latium. 

Queen Nylaria had been warned by the physicians against attempting another pregnancy due to her fragile health. However, her determination to provide her husband, the King, with a male heir outweighed her fear of the risks. Despite the medical advice and the concern of those around her, she pressed on, resolute in her quest to fulfill her role as Queen. In her third term, her youngest sister, Kiera had been called for, both for her medical skills and comfort to the Queen during her pregnancy, and upcoming birth.

Tragically, during childbirth, Nylaria succumbed to the immense strain of delivering a baby boy. Both mother and child lost their lives in the process, leaving a void in the royal court that could not easily be filled. Her husband, stricken with grief, could barely comprehend the loss. Amid her final moments, Nylaria voiced her last wishes to him: she urged him to marry her younger sister, Kiera.

Nylaria had her reasons for this request. With the devastation of Latium following the war, safety and stability had become paramount. By binding Kiera to the King through marriage, Nylaria hoped to secure her sister's protection within the royal family. Beyond this, she also recognized the importance of preserving the royal lineage, a task that now fell to her younger sister.

Though the King felt crushed by the weight of his loss, he could not deny Nylaria's final wish. In honoring her dying request, he took Kiera's hand in marriage, knowing that it was not only a promise to his late wife but also a commitment to the security of his realm and the continuity of his royal line. The union between the King and Kiera became both a solemn duty and a tribute to Nylaria's memory, marking a new chapter in the ongoing saga of the kingdom.

The Duchess Isabella Brenthorne, 55 years old, Widow of the late  King Roberth Brenthorne.

The Duchess was born into one of the wealthiest families in Alban, The Landbrodin's of LondonDerry

She entered into marriage with King Robert in 470AD . Despite the slight age difference of only 11 years between her and Roberts oldest son ,Henrich, she wholeheartedly embraced her role in caring for the King's children, resembling more of a nurturing older sister than a motherly figure. Initially, she grappled with the imagined shadow of the king's first wife, constantly feeling as though she was being compared to her, although such comparisons were largely a product of her own insecurities.

Over time, however, Isabella ceased attempting to emulate Queen Bethany and instead established herself as a beloved and respected Queen in her own right. She eventually had children of her own, further solidifying her position within the royal household. Upon the King's passing, tradition dictated that Isabella would relinquish the title of Queen, which would not be replaced with the designation of King's mother, as that would have been Bethany's title. Understanding this, the King had ensured that Isabella would possess titles of her own and granted her the esteemed position of Duchess.

The Duchess was an intelligent woman of strong character, well-versed in the intricacies of the kingdom's politics. Her astuteness and capabilities were recognized by the King, leading to her appointment to the King's council, a distinguished honour bestowed rarely upon only a select few among the Ladies of Alban

King Henrichs  parents both dead in this timeline. 

The Kings father - King Robert Brenthorne.

In the year 477, tragedy struck the kingdom when King Robert Brenthorne passed away at the young age of 42. King Robert  was a remarkable figure, known for his valor and strength as a warrior. He fought alongside his soldiers and knights on the front lines, leading them with unwavering courage during the long 10 year war.

However, during the grueling battle, King Robert sustained a severe wound to his side. Despite his resilient spirit, the wound eventually led to a long illness, as he valiantly fought off persistent infections. The toll of the battle and subsequent illness weighed heavily on him, before he eventually succumbed to it.

The King was not only a formidable warrior but also a loving and devoted husband and father. His heart was shattered when his beloved wife, Bethany, passed away. He never envisioned taking a second wife, but the royal council insisted that he needed a queen and a mother for his children.

After six years of mourning, King Robert acquiesced and married Lady Isabella,  of House LondonDerry. While she lacked royal lineage, Lady Isabella hailed from one of the wealthiest and most influential families in the realm. The Landbrodins had a strong allegiance to the crown, and Lady Isabella's eldest brother, James Landbrodin The Marquess of LondonDerry, had fought valiantly by the king's side during the war.

This union not only solidified the Landbrodin's loyalty to the crown but also brought prosperity and stability to the kingdom. Lady Isabella's intelligence and grace made her a respected queen. She wholeheartedly embraced her role as a stepmother to the king's children, providing them with love, guidance, and support.

King Robert Brenthorne, a fair and wise ruler, held a place in the hearts of his subjects as a courageous warrior and a compassionate leader. His enduring legacy would forever be remembered throughout the kingdom.

Anthony Landbrodin, 21 years old, son of George and Amberline

​

Anthony was always raised as the eldest son of the Landbrodin family to eventually take the mantle. He was taught finances, art, combat, and leadership skills, Anthony showed little interest in these things though learned so he didn't get into too much trouble with his father. Anthony longed to not have the weight of being the heir and caring after the family but he knew it was what was expected. Anthony was known to be quiet, withdrawn most times and tended to stick to himself, though when necessary would put on a persona in the public eye. He'd much prefer to be sitting alone, reading or in the presence of those he truly enjoyed spending time with. His relationship with his family behind closed doors perhaps a bit rocky due to them seeing his lack of enthusiasm for eventually taking the family over.

Played by ClaraChalice

Cara Landbrodin, 20 years old, daughter of George and Amberline

Cara is a striking young woman with a regal presence that befits her noble lineage. She has long, flowing black hair that contrasts beautifully with her warm, sun-kissed skin, giving her an aura of both mystery and vitality. Her eyes are sapphire blue, reflecting both intelligence and a fierce determination. Cara stands at an average height, with a curvaceous yet athletic build, a testament to her training in horse riding and archery. Her face bears a few scars, remnants of a childhood accident, which she wears with quiet dignity. These scars add to her distinctiveness and speak to her resilience and strength. Cara is known for her sharp wit and keen intellect. She possesses a strong sense of duty and loyalty, much like her family. However, she is also fiercely independent and often chafes at the constraints imposed upon her by her noble status. Her independent streak has often caused tension between Cara and her father, but she shares a close bond with her mother, who has always encouraged her to pursue her interests and passions. She is a compassionate and empathetic young woman, always ready to help those in need, but she can be stubborn and unyielding when it comes to her principles. Cara's primary motivation is to honor her family's legacy while forging her own path.

Ser Brent Dunnadale, 23 years old,  is eldest child and only son of the Duke and Duchess of Black River Falls. Like most sons of nobility,  he had a thorough education in the usual necessary subjects - academics, military arts, and how to manage the family lands and textile operations. For all of his vaunted prowess on the tournament grounds, he has never actually set foot upon a battlefield, but is more than willing to do what is necessary to protect his homeland. Brent is a rather amiable and unruffled fellow with a good sense of humor - none of which detract from his steadfast devotion to duty as a Knight of Alban.

She learned much from Brigida, and was running the small cottage in the older woman's last years. She took over for the woman in the last months of her life, answering the questions for those who sought insight, and prepared medicines for those who came in need. When Seer Brigida passed, Alna buried her far from the small cottage, gathered her few meager possessions, and traveled in search of where others had homes, perhaps to settle closer to a place with protection and greater access to information and basic human contact. She traveled toward Blackriverfalls, seeking not only adventure, but perhaps knowledge of where she truly came from. Seer Brigida, in her middle age, had found Alna as a toddler, held in the arms of a man who looked as if he had died of many wounds, slashes, arrows, stabs... but had been able to outrun his attackers. Brigida took the child in as her own, not telling anyone who the "Father" had been. Alna is actually the missing Dunnadale daughter of Keith and Rebecca, after she had been kidnapped, and spirited away....

Duke of Pembrooke, Roger Bigod, 39 years old

The Duke of Pembroke, renowned across Alban, commands a formidable military force that stands as a testament to his wealth and unwavering loyalty to the crown.

He is a man of rigid principles, with a reputation for harshness that reflects his steadfast focus on business and military strategy—areas where his expertise is unparalleled.

His primary concern lies in ensuring the prosperity of Pembroke, his domain, through meticulous business management. Yet, when the crown is imperiled, he unhesitatingly marshals his forces to defend it. The citizens, though often wary of his stern demeanor, acknowledge his effective governance and the security he provides, leading to a complex mix of devotion and unease.

Claire appears much older than her tender age of 21, leading most people to underestimate her youth. Initially, she appears dignified and reserved, laughing at jokes when appropriate and conforming to societal expectations in various scenarios. Raised in the oppressive home of Lord Roger, where women had no voice or visibility, she perfected the skills of being a flawless lady. Nevertheless, beneath her brown eyes and blonde hair, there lies a daring, defiant girl. When she was younger, she would observe her brother receiving sword lessons from a hidden spot on the balcony. Afterwards, she would imitate the moves using sticks, but it wasn't until she explored her father's dungeon out of curiosity that she discovered her true passion.

 

A elderly man with grey hair and a lengthy white beard requested water from a rebellious young girl who eventually provided him with water, wine, and food for months. In exchange, he taught her all he knew about alchemy, with his most fascinating lessons focusing on poison and explosives. She never wielded a sword again, as it wasn't suitable for a woman, but instead she honed her skills in numerous other deadly arts. After teaching her the theory for years, she assisted the elderly man in escaping and he disappeared without a trace. The dungeon guards failed to realize he had escaped. Lady Claire, as the daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Pembrooke, is simply a lady who is being groomed by her father to find the ideal husband. The secrets lurking behind her gentle brown eyes remain unknown to everyone.

Born into a family where coin were rare she was not used to any comfort or luxury, but it was for the girl not hard – together with her sister Rhea she was happy. Though fate struck and both parents fell ill to the fever and died. At the age of 10 Donna was an orphan – and even though relatives agreed to take in the girls... non of them would take both. After the loss of the parents Donna was devastated, even more by being parted from her sister. She for a long time stopped speaking, locked into herself, was struggeling to recover from the shock. Donna got back to her feet, but kept introverted and silent.Their new families lived so far apart, that most likely she would see Rhea never again – and accepting her fate Donna slowly healed.

 

At the age of 18 her uncle managed a marriage for her with a Legionnaire. Her husbands payment was not bad and gave her some time of less worries. It was not love but they were good with each other, and thus Donna after all had a trusted person to lean on. Though when the war began and he had to leave with the Legion Donna again had to worry, for a reason. Soon into the war she got the message of the demise of her husband – and with 19 years she was widowed. Gathering the savings and some personal things Donna hoped to escape the war, and with some luck, kind people helping and her own strength she manged to reach Alban. Though slowly the savings melted away – and besides the household skills Donna had not much to offer. Since she needed to pay for her little room, for food and some living she accepted the offer to work at the courtesans house, cleaning and some caring for the house there. It would not pay enough, and when one of the visitor showed interest in the young curvy woman she gave in. With her previous marriage she was not unexperienced, learned more and with an open ear and mind picked up knowledge here and there. Being able to entertain visitors she soon seemed to bloom, learned to laugh again and was able to even save some coin. Nobody though did see her tears, when she woke from the haunting nightmares about a lost family and husband. Not knowing about the fate of her sister Rhea she thought that also her was dead, and the feeling of emptyness sometimes seemed to consume her. Always after such a night Donna kept brushing her dark hair forever, giving it the silky shimmer which people so appreciated, her shimmering brown eyes seemed to smile – even if the shimmer was from tears which she would not show anybody. Maybe... There still was the dream of a better life again, would she find it?

His father taught him the skills and crafts of working in metals and is known as an excellent Smith. His uncle, a monk, taught him to read and write. Pitt will turn his hand to making or repairing anything and is equally at home with iron gates, swords and armour as he is with fine jewellery.

His warm personality, coupled with the natural empathy of Smiths to things mystical, places him in a position where his advice is sought on matters both personal and spiritual. He left the village of his birth and travelled widely, searching for something but not knowing quite what it is. He likes to help his fellow man whenever he can and has empathy for animals. Now a town dweller, he still enjoys time spent relaxing in the forest.
