It was a long time ago that my people, the Nunnehi sung of Summer Country. A kingdom, rich, fresh and sweet with dreams and full of glamour. A time when anything was possible and there was peace throughout the lands. We shared a sacred bond with some of the others out there, our allies amongst us, the shifters; brothers Wendigo, Croatan and Uktena. Our families, people and tribes were strong then and times were good...though things were not always to last and soon did times change. The foreigners came to our lands across the Great Seas with their diseases and lies.
They poisoned the lands and brought with them the cold harsh winter of banality and forced upon us their beliefs and strange ways. That was the time when the great storm came to pass throughout the Dreaming and the horrid things of Nightmares came into being, striking across the lands in suffocation and threatening our very lives. It was only the time of the great sacrifice that held the monsters at bay and our friends along with much of our family were lost. Now...now the Kingdom has a new name. A different time to come as the Seelie courts of the Sidhe try to take firm hold over the area, freeholds within, and around, attempting to enforce their regime and standards upon all who live within.
Now is the time for the setting sun and so the kingdom was given root: Kingdom of the Setting Sun for its different times and grasping what was left of the glamour left within the city. Changelings around and alike fight for the dreams that mankind has left to hold back the bitter tides of Winter, some fight the harsh restrictions and politics of the courts while others simply try to survive the banality that eats away at our Fae selves every night and day. These...are different times my friend, though there lie ahead many paths to choose from here.

Approval Tips
Some tips on getting your character approved painlessly.
- Make sure to read up on what you wish to play so that you have an idea of how the game/theme/system works.
- Have a solid concept. Make sure your stats fit the concept you're going for.
- Talk to Staff in pages, @mail or via +request if you've got questions, concerns or ideas.
- Not everyone needs to be a combat centric. Social and Mental rolls will be used liberally here.
- Use common sense. Gunshots get noticed in the city as are weapons that are considered illegal to carry out on the streets in California.

- Grand Kingdom of Concordia
- Some of this is canon (Nobles: The Shining Host 51-53 / Kingdom of Willows 174), some of it is made up
- Setting Sun may have been carved out of Illusions at some point in the past
Membership
- PCs who choose to be members of a County or Barony recognize the authority of its leaders, and agree to follow the terms of the Escheat as interpreted by them or accept the consequences for breaking faith.
|
- With no actual Count or Countess currently in residence, the interpretation and enforcement of the Escheat has been left to the various Barons and Baronesses that rule over the various parts of the County. Laws are laws for a reason, but with no individual Changeling ruling over the County as a whole it is entirely possible that the punishment for any given offense might vary immensely depending on who hands the verdict out.
- Newcomers to the County would do well to introduce themselves to one or more of the ruling Barons and Baronesses in the region, though they may very well have vastly differing expectations of said newcomers.
- Baron Lonne ap Fiona, presently holding the former County seat, CAN be reached by missive (@mail), but generally prefers that newcomers just stop by the Sideshow or the Grove of Tethys and say hi; a 'formal audience' is likely to be anything but formal, and Baron Lonne generally does not require anyone to make any oaths of fealty or citizenship; the Satyr Baron firmly maintains that loyalty and respect should be earned, not taken for granted by sheer virtue of having a title.
- Baroness Liazaelyn Blackpool ni Fiona accepts missives or phone calls (@mail in-game) or someone just dropping by Capricorn Studios where she is often found. She accepts Oaths of Fealty from those that wish to serve in her court, but does not mind those that come and go as long as they follow the rules of Escheat within her barony.
