House Makov

The Ruling house of The Old Kingdom, Vildeer, Voska, and Vilska, this house has ruled as monarchs of the land since it's unification thousands of years ago. As all children learn both through teachings and stories the house rose to power when Zhan Makov, the God of the Old Kingdom sailed accross the sea and landed on what is modern day Biyovsk Old Town, through diplomacy and conquest he forged the old Kingdom what most people now simply refer to as the Kingdom of Biyovsk or Biyovska, but original historical documents suggest the true name of the kingdom was Yensu. After Zhan's Sacrifice, a day that is remembered now as a night of great mourning and a day of great celebration, House Makov has ruled and expanded the kingdoms influence. They followed Zhan's tradition of ruling as humble, kind and charitable rulers, but also as the pillar of justice in the kingdom, a member of the family was the executioner of most trials and the pardoner of some others, although they left the actual dealings of the law up to a fair third party or the lord of the land.

Although the Kingdom was born in blood the Makovs save for Zhan's son and a few scattered kings throughout history decided that expansion was not important and instead looked within themselves for strength rather than to other nations for plunder and as a result the nations that have graced or tarnished the lands of the old kingdom have been fiercely independent from the rest of the world
