Jalien of Shiran
The Fourth Autarch (657-61) hoped to emulate his predecessor with expansion of his own. He sent an embassy to Moleryn in hopes of persuading the small state to join the league. Moleryn explained, quite politely, that it was satisfied with its independent alliance with the Kingdom of Kanay. On the return trip one of the ambassadors suddenly fell ill and died. Jalien had already claimed that the Moleryn republic was instituting "restrictive and projectionist tariffs" against League goods, accused the Moleryni of poisoning the ambassador and attacked from Eidru. Moleryn was hopelessly outclassed by the League armies and quickly sued for peace. Ironically one of the few casualties of the campaign was Jalien, who was killed by a "stray arrow" in his tent half a mile from the walls of Moleryn. [Tharda 2-3]

Clan Jeredosta currently holds the most land held by any one clan in all of Tharda. The land they hold is relatively new and unsettled. The Jeredosta clan was founded around the year 658, during the reign of Colura of Coranan, the fifth Autarch (661-68) of the Thardic League. In return for mustering 500 men for Colura’s armies, they were granted clan registry at the palace of Gules in 662.

Jmorvi
The Jmorvi Shek-Pvar stands between fire and earth. His element is of the solid heart of the world, of steel and black iron. The Jmorvi affinity is for mineral, especially metallic minerals. The element and its manipulators are powerful and unyielding, but sometimes brittle and insensitive, brutal and shallow. Jmorvi magic abhors the spiritual, the soul of man which is unpredictable, wild and unreliable - it prefers the sureness and solidity of cold, clean steel. Most Jmorvi are artificers, their magic tends to run in a slower vein than that of other Shek-Pvar. theirs' is the study, making and manipulation of tangible metals, things that do not yield easily to the spirit, even the spirit of the mage.
