Gundaroving -

![[sturgia 1.png]] # Gundaroving Ruling Clan - Centralizing Sturgia's Power Tier 6 > The current Grand Prince of Sturgia is Raganvad. Harsh and uncompromising, he believes that it is the right of the prince to command the boyars in all things, not just in making war. For the time being they obey him, not least for his ability to call on the kinsmen of his mother, a [[Nord]] princess with ties to the fearsome [[Skolderbroda]] mercenary company. # Dialogue [[Raganvad]] [[Gundaroving]] on the [[Sturgian]] Boyars and their oath > "The boyars swore an oath to my grandfather to obey him as prince. They begged him to save them from the wrath of [[Calradian-Empire]], which they had stirred up with their raids and their lawless ways." > > "My grandfather did save the boyars, and ever since, their thankless heirs have tried to weasel out of that oath. They like to quarrel, and take what they want, and care nothing for the realm." > > "I will break them. By the Heavens I will bring them to heel, or the knife will fall on them." ## Others on [[Temun]] [[Arkit]] on [[Siga]] [[Kuloving]], Varra, and Grand Prince, [[Raganvad]] > "That [[Sturgian]] witch killed my uncle (Undul [[Arkit]]). Her younger sister (Varra [[Kuloving]]) had been given to him in marriage by the [[Sturgian]] king ([[Raganvad]] [[Gundaroving]]), but she betrayed him and sent word to [[Siga]], and let her into his castle at night. He would never have been defeated by a woman, a [[Sturgian]], or anyone else in fair combat. At any rate he was slain. The [[Sturgian]] king, who at least has some honor, sent us the sister's head. But [[Siga]] remains alive - for now. Some day I will honor my father's memory by cutting her throat at his gravesite." [[Siga]] [[Kuloving]] on Grand Prince, [[Raganvad]] [[Gundaroving]] > "You may know that there is a matter between [[Raganvad]] and myself. Well, someone else will have to tell you about it. In my family, when there is a matter like this, we let our swords do the talking." [[Olek]] [[Kuloving]] on Grand Prince, [[Raganvad]] [[Gundaroving]] and the [[Arkit]] > "Ah, yes. [[Raganvad]], the glorious king, gave my little sister Pira (Varra) to a [[Khuzait-Khanate]] to seal an alliance. Well, my other sister - [[Siga]] - she wasn't having any of that. She rescued NAME (Varra), and left the Khuzait's castle in flames ([[Arkit]]) behind her. Well, [[Raganvad]] couldn't have that - he had my sister taken by surprise, and sent her head to the Khuzaits. This is not something that our family can forget." # Game Files / Developer Diaries Ruling clan, centralizing, Patriarch: [[Raganvad]], Ivan/Hardrada type, minimal sense of humor Heir: Simir, ambitious but treated coldly by father, wants to prove self [[Revyl]], chief town of the rocky Kachyar peninsula, was a traditional rival of [[Balgard]]. According to legend the Balgardian princess [[Arkina]], whose husband had been slain by the Revylians, accepted a proposal from her enemy's king to marry and settle the feud. On her wedding night, however, she barred the door of his hall and burned him and a hundred of his kinsmen and warriors alive inside. The feud has long since been settled by pacts and marriages with happier outcomes, although Revylians still resent the ascent of the Balgardian [[Gundaroving]] dynasty. | ![[raganvad.png]] | Ragenvad, Hardrada type --> name="{=rNrq6QdU}Raganvad" age="37" voice="curt" is_hero="true" default_group="Infantry" culture="Culture.sturgia" occupation="Lord" face_mesh_cache="true"> Authoritarian value="1" /> | | ---- | ---- | | ![[vidar.png]] | Raganvad uncle.
