King Ottokar II
Established
Roleplay posts: 13
Age: 51
Physical Description: Otto is an aged man with a gradient of white to black from the top of his head to the end of his beard respectively. He is 187cm tall but a broad build is truly what makes his presence regal. His hair is generally neatly trimmed to be short accomodating his age, with a thick beard to make use of the still youthful hairs there. The King's eyes are a dark, ocean blue and his skin is a light peach shade of someone who was born darker but spends most of their time inside. Age has left his skin wrinkled particularly on a stressed forehead and around the mouth, but his shapely ears and chin remain strong.
Clothes and Equipment: The King generally wears his royal vestments, a breastplate, and a fur coat and a one-and-a-half handed sword at his belt. However there will almost always be some additions or modifications to this depending on what the King is currently doing.

The Egyszers are a people that joined the Empire but a few centuries ago, previously raiding nomads that adapted to sedentary life. They have a unique identity ethno cultural identity from the rest of the Vessian folk, their language and customs being a string point of pride. This has however lead to much resentment of Egyszers towards the Empire as outside of their Kingdom there is no protection or status for their language and culture. The Kingdom doesn't have many commodities like gold, furs or spices and as such people don't live particularly rich. But soil is fertile, trees as plentiful, many horses roam the land and the mountains are all but made of iron, all of this insuring that at least a comfortable living can be insured for the people. The Kingdom is mostly rural, with only its capital of Logosu being the only true city. However villages will have its own smiths, tinkerers, teachers, alchemists, seminaries and residents as part of a recent effort to reduce intellectual dependence on the gradually resented Empire. Though Egyszers often resent the Vessian crown, they are ironically its best and most common henchmen as rural Egyszer lads constitute much of the muscle for Inquisitors, Reichskomissioners, and Witch Hunters. This is for the simple reason that they usually still have the savagery of their horseman ancestors and do not speak Vessisch to understand the pleas of their victims.
