The Kingdom of Johrase is one of the Bandit Kingdoms in the Northern Flanaess.
Description
Johrase is considered one of the more powerful Bandit Kingdoms[1] because they can hold their own domain against rivals which might challenge them.[2]
History
Formed in 324 CY by Andrellus, a debauched scion of Aerdy’s Rax dynasty, Johrase represented a miniature Great Kingdom, replete with its own king and commoners (represented by local Flan plainsmen)
"Over time, the realm’s society became increasingly dominated by the warrior instincts of the Flan, the throne being held by the most powerful warrior, regardless of race. Annual raids against Redspan ensured that the brutish influence of Johrase was known throughout the Flanaess. Nonetheless, Kinemeet became a neutral meeting ground for bandit chieftains and a marketplace for cattle and horses. Johrase allied with Dimre and fought Iuz’s forces in 583, but it was routed and its men scattered to the east. Many have taken to the mercenary life in Tenh, fighting for the Tenha, the Pale, or whoever offers the most coin. All fly the black morning star emblem of Johrase in combat, and Johrase men never fight each other, regardless of professed allegiances."[3]
