Black Serpents
The Adder family is making it's presence known across the kingdom.
Once a powerful dynasty, they lost castles and land during the crusades, to families later belonging to the Lions and Crowns. Traveling, they made a living through trade and connections, and learned many secrets.
Some say secrets found them, and there are rumors of nightly visits from legless minifigures...
Lately, their interest in the arcane trans-purple magic have payed off. It has given the family a mighty sword, to rally support and power.
Now they are back. Their family head, Prince Edmund (called "the Black") with his wife, daughter and son, have made it clear they are ready to play the grand game again. Loosely allied to the Black Falcons and the Eastern Nomads, they have coffers filled with gold, ancient knowledge and trans-purple magic, and they are looking for mercenaries.
Ill times are upon the lands.
