Plot
The plot is pretty much royal families, commoners, and so on living out their lives. Any major events will be thought of during the RP. Be it a threat of war from afar, royal weddings, issues in the realm, and so on. Not really much to say here.
Royal Families
House Silversong, rulers of Riften.
House Cerwyn, rulers of Markarth and the realm.
House Kaldwin, rulers of Isengard
House Avenicci, rulers of Ferelden
House Thanor, rulers of Caerlaverock
House Roth, rulers of Chaydinhal
House Romanov, rulers of Neuschwanstein
House Maru, rulers of Rohan

Markarth
Sigil of House Markarth
Ruled by the Cerwyn's for generations, this rustic Kingdom has been declared the capitol and shelters the Lord of the realm, Mallus. Nobody has tried to take claim of the throne for themselves for decades, and when they have tried, it hasn't been much of an attempt since the Cerwyn's took claim to it many years ago. Many people wonder why Isengard hasn't been declared the capitol, due to it still being much larger then Markarth, but anytime someone asks the king just shrugs them off and tells them that "small is better" and that "Our place is here in the north". This is where people flock to for the festivities, like jousting, duels, and so on. They are renowned for the best jousts in the realm, the best duels, and even royals from afar come to this kingdom to have their weddings. They are also renowned for their whores, and some people come to Markarth just for that.
The people of Markarth typically worship the Old Gods of the Forest, and the tree in the center of part of the town is actually one of the heart trees you worship at. People can be often seen here praying, sometimes for hours on end. The Cerwyn's have also been seen here a fair amount, especially Ygritte. Nobody really knows if there's a particular reason Ygritte frequents the heart tree more then the other Cerwyn's or not, because nobody has bothered to ask. Of course, the other religions of Dunwall, like The Nine Divines, have also been known to be worshiped in Markarth by some people. But the Old Gods of the Forest are the most frequently worshiped gods in Markarth by a long shot.
The terrain of the Markarth region is known for not being very varied. It mostly consists of high valleys and mountainous terrain, Markarth for example being thousands of feet above sea level but being in a relatively flat valley. Mountains that soar to 10,000 feet and beyond can be found in this region. In the winter months, snow is frequent, even in the lower lands of Markarth, including at the Kingdom of Markarth itself. Snow has even been found falling on the Kingdom of Markarth during the summer. The mountains are almost impassible during the winter months unless you are a skilled climber. As you head to Riften however, the elevation descends relatively rapidly, due to Riften being at sea level and Markarth being drastically higher then Riften. Going to Ferelden on the other hand, the elevation really doesn't change that much. The other regions vary rapidly, due to being farther. Some can be a big descent, and then you go back up again, before you descend again.

Highroad Inn
A rustic-looking inn in the forest near the border of Ferelden. It doesn't take long at all to arrive to the realm of Ferelden from the inn. The inn has been here for many years, serving stuff from a variety of foods, alcoholic beverages, and a place to stay for the night, along with sometimes the occasional job for anyone who shows up.
The inn is owned by a nice lady, who is very kind to all of her guests and employee's. Though, she can be very stern to people if she has to. Clearly, she is a good businesswoman, because she does what she has to to keep the atmosphere of her place as nice as possible. But, the people that know her, and are actually polite, love her. This including Susan, who has had enough experience being at Highroad Inn in her life, and she met her multiple times before.
Tallest Peak In Dunwall
Despite the name suggesting it is the biggest peak in Dunwall, nobody knows for a fact, due to refusing to travel all the way into the rather harsh northern lands. It is the tallest in the known parts of Dunwall, except maybe besides the Kingdom in the North ruled by two kings, who pretty much keep to themselves and have nothing to do with business down below. They may perhaps know of a taller peak.
Pentos
Lead by House Auditore, and is a vassal house to Markarth. Being the leader of this settlement however is rather....unimpressive, it being so small and all. Their military isn't exactly a huge benefit to Markarth. The pictures of it are in the winter, obviously (and sometime summer). This is mostly a place where people stop for a while, because there really isn't much impressive about it.
Volantis
Ruled by House Bartol, House Bartol is a vassal house to Markarth. This small town is where the main logging industry of Markarth is located, if not the biggest in the entire of Dunwall. This is where Markarth gets a lot of it's money in taxes and donations, and the town is striving rather well from the money they make off of logging. Some people don't like the logging, but most don't care. It seems as if the forest around Volantis is slowly disappearing, but right now it's still doing fairly well.

Ferelden
Sigil of Ferelden
Ferelden is the mining capitol of the realm, due to it's rather good location. Rohan is also in the mountains, but they don't mine as nearly as much, which might partly due with their natural interest in preserving the beauty of their land. Ferelden has relatively recently (as in like, 20 to 30 years) been ruled by the Avenicci's, who have been considered as fair leaders. Nobody has really praised them as the best in the realm, due to a few things that haven't gone over well with the people. One thing the Avenicci's have been known for is openly training female soldiers, if they so choose to be soldiers. For example, both of the Avenicci's daughters know how to fight, and quite well. There's Jeor Avenicci, aged 50, Margaery Avenicci, aged 48, daughters Susan Avenicci, aged 18, Lucy Avenicci, aged 14, and son Rickon Avenicci, aged 11. They had their first child at an old age (for medieval standards), and had them because they decided it was probably about time they had an heir to the throne, since they had been married for 10 years. For them, it ended up taking 2 daughters before they had a son.
Recently, they've had some problems at home. They've had reports of a group of people banding together for what seemed to be an "uprising", there's been strange noises reported in the mines, and if it couldn't get worse, the Natives have been causing more problems the last few months then normal. This was likely why Susan Avenicci (going to assume that would be the one Zander would marry) was called back to home because of issues at home. Despite the fact she was a traveling bard, she still was an Avenicci, and her home was everything. And since she knew how to fight, they needed everyone they could get to protect their home from the rising threat

Ruled by House Hornwood. House Hornwood is a vassal house to Ferelden. It may look like a fort, but assume there are some houses. They have a rather large military force for their size, as well, and they will give them to Ferelden if needed in war. The Hornwood's have always been a questionable family, but are very loyal to the Avenicci's. They are royalty in the sense they lead this town, but leading a small town is not nearly as important as leading the major cities, and really doesn't mean anything other you are the mayor or whatever of that particle smaller settlement.

Continent of Dunwall
Dunwall is a vast continent, ranging from deserts to snow-capped mountains. There are eight top ruling Kingdoms in the realm that have lived relatively peaceful for a long time, though there have been small wars here and there. No realm-wide wars have occurred in centuries. There was once the Kingdom of Kvatch, but it fell during one of the bloodiest wars in the realms history. Still, it wasn't a realm-wide war, just a war on Kvatch by another Kingdom. Places like the northern hemisphere have been reported too cold and dangerous to safely travel through, the desert has been claimed too hot and dangerous to travel safely through, The Wilds have been reported to be a pain to travel through and dangerous, and The North has pretty much been declared worthless to travel to because it's pretty much all mountains. The plains however have been designated okay, just boring.
The Shivering Isles:
The Shivering isles is a small series of islands off the west coast of Dunwall. It is not a part of the eight kingdoms, and is ruled by the Indoria family. Aaliyah and Deion visit Markarth a fair amount, and are friends of House Cerwyn. In the Shivering Isles, Aaliyah has more power then Deion does, and is even more of a warrior then him, which it is typical for women to have more power and be better warriors in the isles. Their army consists more of females then males. Aaliyah and Deion are kind and fair rulers, but are open the extreme solutions if it comes down to it.
Helgen
This city is located way up in the north, where most people find it unbearably cold. Many centuries ago, a group of travelers decided to go up from Markarth, and make their settlement away from everything else. This mission was successful, even if a lot of people didn't exactly make it there alive. Since then, this one city has been run by various different kings and queens throughout it's existence, all alone from the world. They've pretty much kept to themselves through their entire existence, with a few exceptions of some kings and queens heading down south here and there. Their population isn't exactly large, but they have a fairly decent military force.

Riften
Riften has been ruled by the Silversong family for as long as the city existed. It was a Silversong who came up with the idea to build the city on the beautiful arch it rests on now. They have managed to keep their place as Lords and Ladys of Riften due to the fact that they all fight extra well when fighting for the city their ancestors built. Over the generations, the city has had it's ups and downs, but the worst time was by far under the rule of Lord Logain Silversong, who was killed by his own son, Oghren. Logain had completely neglected his people, as well as thirsting for war and trading in slaves, young and old. After Logain was dead, Oghren ascended to the throne, and started repairing the damage his father had made. It took time, but with the help of his three sons and wife, he eventually got it pristine again, where everyone was taken care of as best they could. Shortly after Logain's dead, Oghren has sworn to be an ally to the throne, but never swore fealty. So, basically, they would help Markarth, but they weren't specifically sworn to follow orders from them. They are also allies with a few of the other kingdoms, as well, such as Ferelden, but they don't help them as much as they help Markarth, due to not wanting to stretch themselves to thin trying to help everyone.
The area around Riften is mostly forest, though of course it does have the sea on one side, since it's a port town. Most of the rest of Riften Land is thick pine forests, though it does have tall mountains around it and in the Northern parts of Riften. The Forests reach all the way to the border of Neuschwanstein, though along the Rohan border they have some valleys. Along the shore they have some nice beaches, though some areas are cliffs that lead into the ocean.
The most popular religion in Riften is the worship of The Nine Divines. The Nive Divines are: Akatosh -The Dragon God of Time and the chief god of the pantheon, Arkay-God of Life and Death, Dibella- Goddess of beauty, Julianos- God of Wisdom and Logic, Kynareth – Goddess of Nature, Mara- Mother Goddess and Goddess of Love, Stendarr- God of mercy, Talos- God of war and governance, and Zenithar- God of work and commerce. I may or may not go into bigger details about the religion later.

Caerlaverock
Caerlaverock is not a happy town. There are beggars on the streets, and no one doing anything to help any of the commoners. It's every man for themselves. The only way you can get any of the Thanors to help you is by offering to become a servant, which isn't technically that helpful. Caerlaverock is a farming town, and supplies a lot of the other holds' food, though obviously they can get food from other places.
Eliam Became Lord of Caerlaverock through violence. He was the youngest in his family, and last in line for the throne, behind 6 brothers and his father. His father and mother were kind rulers, and the people liked them. But their son, Eliam, wanted nothing but power. One by one he killed his six brothers, always making it look like an accident. Eventually his father found out it was him, and Eliam challenged him to a duel. Eliam one, killing his father and thus ascending to the throne, but he didn't get out of it unharmed. He forever has a scar under his eye to remind him of that battle. Shortly after becoming Lord of Caerlaverock, he married Hieba, who is just as power hungry as he is. Eventually they had twins, Veronica and Bianca, who are both very stuck up and tend to act like they're entitled to everything. Over the years, Eliam and Hieba have been acting like they're friends with Markarth, while secretly being allies with Isengard.
Castle and city, with plenty of room to expand over time.

Cheydinhal
Cheydinhal is an interesting and unique concept of a kingdom. It probably could really literally be called a Kingdom, instead of a city. All the residents live within the castle, except for a few outside houses. The Kingdom gathers all together in the Great Hall (and other places, if it gets too busy) to eat together and socialize. They've been known to have citizens that get along the best between each other in the realm, because they are always together and socializing. They've also been known to have some great festivities as well, and tourism is common. There's a whole section of the castle dedicated to housing tourists. Also, as far as education goes, they are highly praised throughout the realm for their good education system.
Up until recently, Chaydinhal was ruled by Lord Djer Roth, with his sons, Atlas and Altran. Djer was a kind leader, but had a bad dispute with House Silversong. They weren't exactly enemies, but they didn't get along well. Altran was next in line to be Lord, but died in battle one day. Shortly later Djer died in grief. Atlas was left to ascend to the throne, though he had no real training in how to be a Lord. At this time, he was already engaged to Katrina. Shortly later she became Lady of the hold. Neither of them are much older then the two oldest Silversong brothers. Chaydinhal is currently ruled by Atlas and Katrina Roth, who are both still new to the whole Lord and Lady thing.

Isengard
Currently ruled by a grumpy old man by the name Ramsay Kaldwin, Isengard is the largest city by population and area. Isengard has been ruled by Ramsay and his family for a very long time, and they are one of the few royal families that want nothing to do with the Cerwyn's. Ramsay has been promising his family and his people that there would be a "Revolution against the Cerwyn occupation" for about 20 years now, but nothing has ever really happened. Maybe a few brawls here and there, but nothing that would really give you the impression that they were trying to take down the Cerwyn's. The Kaldwin's have never sworn fealty to King and Protector of the Realm Mallus, along with making no attempts to have an alliance, outright refusing to do so. Constantly King Ramsay is babbling on about bullshit and sounding like he would be a modern day Republican, and people have come to fear their own King, or think their King has completely lost his mind, or been possessed by the devil.

Roche Harbor
This is the major port town of the Realm of Isengard. It is where most of the navy fleet of Isengard is located, and where a huge chunk of the ships are built, along with a majority of the shipments from various places for materials go to. This town helps the economy of Isengard quite a lot, though Isengard itself has a fair amount of ways to gain money. It is slightly south of Isengard, though is not that far from Isengard. A fair amount of the ships stay in Isengard at all times, as well. Davos Baelish rules this place by himself, along with running the fleet of Isengard.
Dreadfort
Dreadfort is ruled by the Seaworth's. It is one of the major port cities, though behind Roche Harbor and Isengard. It is located North of Isengard. They have a fairly good sized ship fleet of their own, lead by Thoros Seaworth, who is a rather good sailor. However, Davos Baelish will likely lead his fleet too, during battle. He may have Thoros assist him, along with Davos' 2nd-In-Command in leading the ship fleet against Markarth. They are most known for their excellent fisherman, and a large chunk of the fish in Isengard comes from Dreadfort. It is their biggest source of income. This helps make the Realm of Isengard in general quite the wealthy realm.

Kvatch
Kvatch was once a beautiful and thriving kingdom. But during one of the major wars, it fell into shambles. The royal family that had ruled it had gone down with it, not even one of the family members surviving. From that day on, it had been abandoned, though occasionally people claim it for brief stops while they are headed to war, or curious adventurers explore it because they believe it is haunted. There was a very bloody history with this Kingdom, but there really were no ghosts. Still, people believed there was and even claim to of seen some.
