Editing Kingdoms: Creating the Court (section)

==Defenders of the Realm: The Rooks==

Each Court has two Rooks - one Seelie and one Unseelie.

A Rook is a defence specialist - they help protect your Kingdom against both military and intrigue threats, and tend to do so more effectively than most. Though you can send Rooks on the attack, they don't necessarily do well in such circumstances, because they rely on resources and contacts within the Kingdom itself.

The Seelie Rook tends to be a co-ordinator of "official" forces. For example, a Minister for Homeland Security would be a Seelie Rook, as would a Castellan, a Seneschal or an Imperial Engineer.

The Unseelie Rook tends to work in shadows with "unofficial" resources to defend the realm. For example, an Underworld Crime Boss would be an Unseelie Rook, as would a Shadow Guildmaster, a Cult leader or a Ghost-speaking shaman.

Both, however, can defend and counter any threat, and can use different means to achieve the same goals.

Regardless, when the Court is created, it is the King's-Player who must make the decisions, and fill out the character sheets for both of the Rooks in his court.
