Entrell Estates is a small landholding in the Kingdom of Nyrond.
History
Entrell Estates is one of many small landholdings around the king's lands surrounding Rel Mord. Its ruler, Gelleflair Entrell, is a rarity in being a high elf noble. In the aftermath of the Greyhawk Wars, Gelleflair obeyed King Archbold III's and his bailiffs as he had little choice in due to being so close to Rel Mord. However, his sympathies lay entirely with the people of his estates. His own men helped locals to hide possessions and harvests so as to avoid taxes, and he returned some monies to them from his own funds.[1]
Geography
The Entrell Estates were located between Rel Mord and Oldred.
Notable individuals
Notable individuals in or from Entrell Estates include:
- Gelleflair Entrell, the noble ruler of the Entrell Estates.
Government
Gelleflair was presumably appointed to his position by a monarch of Nyrond at some stage, or inherited such.
Following the reorganization of provincial administration under King Lynwerd I that commenced Needfest 1, 591 CY in was not clear whether Entrell Estates became part of Justcrown Province or the Duchy of Korenflass.[2]
Military
Gelleflair in Spring 585 CY maintained a militia of 220, of which about half were high elves and half-elves. While appearing to be simple light infantry or light cavalry, many were rangers, elven fighter/mages, or even bards, and so were a powerful force for one so small.[1]
In Living Greyhawk

In the Living Greyhawk campaign, Entrell Estates featured in a number of adventures in particular the "Entrell Estates" series in 596 CY and 597 CY ("A Lament in Entrell", "The House of Entrell", "Entrell: The Sign of the Jackal", "Entrell: The Light of the Elves and the Sword of Dawn", "In Faith for Entrell" and "To Mourtn with Entrell"). It was also detailed in the "Nyrond Gazetteer" fan-created sourcebook.
The organizing Triad for the Nyrond region created maps of Nyrond showing the borders of various provinces, including that Entrell Estates fell within the Duchy of Korenflass.[3]
