Description
Breakaway Kingdom from Glavendauxy, initiating the start of the Second Era.

Tauber quickly rose to great power through the wise leadership of the Acht Dynasty that still rules over the Kingdom.

The Kingdom today is a military powerhouse and is rightfully so - they discourage Tremarcki invasions of which Tauber has defeated several.

Falk Acht VIII is the reigning King of Tauber and holds close relationships with King Sargon the First of Alasantine and His Grace Gaius of House Chynr, King of Lathael and the Mountain, Lord of Kingskeep, and Conqueror of the Dwarves.

Tauber has steadily gathered territory that it regards rightfully as their own through bloody wars with Glavendauxy. Many inhabitants of Tauber still resent Glavendauxy for having abandoned Tauber to the Tremarcki hordes.

Thryskard Gate guards the current border with Glavendauxy on the tip of the Arandoor peninsula.

The major exports consist of a wide variety of metal ore mined from the Valunspires in Southern Tauber, including emerald; dyes of myriad colors, Cedar and Spruce lumber, game and furs, an enormous amount of crops and fish, salt, and stone.

Their military mostly consists of halberdiers who maneuver with tight formation using archers and bowmen in support from rear rank and files. Siege weaponry is an uncommon feature for Tauber but they often utilize trebuchets to great effect on the battlefield. There are also the elite 600 Brink Knights, who often ride into battle on horseback as shock troops rather than to get bogged down in the midst of battle.

The Brink Knights are the campaigning arm of Tauber’s torso, they fight the incursions into enemy lands and are the first response to enemy invasions. They number approximately 600 in total, each trained for life, extensively and brutally well equipped, and in the high tide of physical condition, the Brink Knights are technically Crusaders but swear fealty to the Acht bloodline.

Tauber is a Kingdom of mostly farmers, fishermen, and miners. The massive Leas on the Svarok peninsula provides grand amounts of food, the miles of coastline are prime spots for fishing, and the Valunspires to the south are rich and bountiful in natural minerals and ore.
