FETHAEL HUNDRED

Fethael Hundred is a small rural cluster of communities in eastern Kaldor. The caravans still travel the Silver Way but the proud warriors and farmers of the Hundred make their way as they have since the area was part of the kingdom of Serelind.

When I started  this project, I needed a place that was big enough to keep players occupied but small enough that I could realistically write the detail I wanted to achieve. I scoured the maps of Harn, studying several small Hundreds and weighing a number of options before settling on Fethael Hundred. No one had written any articles on any of the Hundred's settlements and the Indama clan was largely unexplored.

Its 14 settlements are divided among three major landowners. The Indama clan are by far the most powerful. The clan head, Sir Chimin Indama, is the Baron of Getha and the Sheriff of Neph. His son and heir, Sir Harapa, is married to a scion of the royal family. The Kobarney clan is older and perhaps better entrenched within the Hundred. Sir Tommas Kobarney is not a man to trifle with and his pedigree includes a Laranian Saint and centuries of service to the kingdom. In between these two powers lies the lands of the Serolan of Lethyl. This Laranian cleric is up to the task of dealing with his noble neighbors but he has trouble keeping the Chapters of the Lady of Paladins in line.
