Information on the Realm: Hjolvar

The settlement of Kopingdal is the only truly populated region of this distant, forrested realm.
Founded only recently, Hjolvar has yet to grow into a truly modern Rjurik state.
Hjolvar did not exist until 20 years ago, when Uldviik declared
himself regent of a newly formed realm. Until that time, the city of
Kopingdal had been a prosperous but utterly isolated trading port
built along the forested shores of Fingal Inlet. Today, Uldviik has
laid the foundation for a real nation, Fortresses and outposts are now
scattered throughout the wilderness. Jarls have been appointed, though
they are still a long way from taming their remote provinces. The
great test of Hjolvars unity is yet to come; the goblin chiefs of
Urga-Zai are aware of Uldviiks intentions and plan to invade and
crush the upstart humans.
The Hjolvarans are among the toughest and most resourceful of the
Rjurik. Scouts, sailors, fisherfolk, hunters, and explorers have all
come here seeking new lives and adventure. None of the current
settlers are nomads, however, for such individuals prefer to remain
in their ancestral lands. If and when Hjolvar becomes a nation, it will
be a place where the old ways are rare or unknown.
King Uldviik is the son of Lord Varrig, who founded and helped build
the city of Kopingdal. Since his fathers death, Uldviik has sworn to
build Hjolvar into a true kingdom. He intends to clear the southern
jarldoms of goblins and other fell creatures and eventually defeat
and displace the humanoids of Urga-Zai.
Uldviik is a tough, resourceful ruler, but he is now over 50 years old
and probably will not realize his dreams within his lifetime. His
children are ready to assume his duties, and are sufficiently loyal
that they will abide by Uldviiks decision regarding a successor.
