The Last Kingdom RP - Map Game

The Last Kingdom RP Mapgame

===England in 856===

The Last Kingdom is a map game, based of the book by Bernard Cornwell of the same name. To put that in context, it is basically England, and minor parts of Britain during the Viking Age. Norsemen from the north have attacked a Monastery, and who knows when they shall return again. King Aella of the Northumbrians, mighty and fat he is, his nation's in threat by the norse, has not welcomed them, and so both factions prepared for war. Mercia, ruled by King Burghred of Mercia - a weak and soft king, is not ready, would they prepare to face the wrath of the Vikings as the norse call themselves? East Anglia would follow, full of riches and monastries, at their head lies King Edmund of East Anglia, a pious man.

Then there is Wessex, the most powerful nation of England. Ruled by a powerful man, Ethelred. He is the leader of an army more powerful than the others, and well armed. The power of the West Saxons are equivelant of the Frankish Empire as said by their leaders. Etherlred's heir, Alfred, who is his younger brother, is seen weak - weaker than ever. A very christian man, he went to Rome as a child.

But what caused the most chaos in Britain were the true sons of devil, the turds - the Danes. Under brothers Halfdan and Ivar Lodbrok, seeking revenge on their father's death when he was thrown into a pit of snakes. They seek to unite England under Danish Rule, the danelaw, and establish a dynasty to stand the test of time.
