Editing Wealth Of The World (section)

==Notable GM Characters==

===The Court===
[[Prince Taktu]] the Kushan Governer of the city. He's fat, corrupt, and possibly not nearly as stupid as he looks. He worships Zeus, Buddda, and Kirsna indifferently, and has a great hatred for Mithra, for reasons unclear. 

[[Princess Badia]], Prince Taktu's wife, from Persia, but converted to Buddism. In this corrupt city, she's popular and beloved of the peoples. Pretty scary, eh?	 
 
[[Prince Tolmos]], Taktu's thirteen year old son and heir. Widely considered to be a useless twerp and a drunken wennie. Worked for Prince Hal.	 
 
[[Princess Amestris]], Taktu and Badia's daughter. One of the prettiest girls in town, but alas she knows it. Promised to Captain Amit, but has a roaming eye. Is a terrible trial to her mother.	 

[[Princess Rhodugune]], Amestris's younger sister, a great favorite of her mother.  

[[Captain Amit]], a noble officer in Prince Taktu's court, second in command of the garrison, in charge of city patrols, and having the power of low justice in the police court over beggers, theives, con artists, mimes, and other pests. Taktu approves of him; Amit is the fiance of Princess Amestris.	 
 
[[Vizer Menuas]], Taktu's Major Domo, secretary, dogs body, henchman, and prime minister. Does much of the day to day work of civil rule, including collecting major taxes. He's married to one of Taktu's bastards, [[Lady Roxanna]]. Widely hated as corrupt and greedy. But then, people would say that, wouldn't they?	 
 
[[Harmodias]], Taktu's current favorite mistress. Nearly as popular as Badia, and perhaps more beautiful than Amestris. Oddly enough, the three women get along very well, at least in public.

[[Cilissa]] is one of Taktu's bastard daughters, by a greek girl who ran away years ago.  She's about Rho's age and the two are friends. 

[[Nui]] is another of Taktu's bastard daughters, with Hanish features. her mother has not been acknowleged by the Court,  but popular rumor names her as trade boss [[Shiyan]]. She follows Princess Amestris.
