[GryffonDurime]

As many of you know, the day of Graal2001's return is upon us. While the kingdoms will still be under heavy construction, roleplaying will begin in earnest. To this end, I'd like to announce the rulers of Graal2001's illustrious kingdoms:

-Malenth, the nation of vengeful knights and home of the dieing samurai, will be led by their Imperator, a warmonger incarnate, Zurkiba.

-Bellasera, being the refuge for the mages and citizenry of Dustari and the shipwrights of the Pirate Crew, will be led by the Regina, played by Shawn Kelfonne.

-The Zormite Empire, born again from the ashes of their now-tattered castle, will be led by their new Emperor, Minoc.

Kaytu may or may not be introduced rapidly; the problem lies in finding a capable roleplayer who will not turn it into a second incarnation of the Karakaze Troupe.
