Ghostwise Dominion
Structure
The High Chieftain controls various smaller communties and clans within the lands of the Ghostwise Dominion. Due to the incrediable ability of the Ghostwise Haflings to teleport at will travel and communication takes a matter of hours rather than days across its vast land. Each clan that is present within the Ghostwise Dominion has its own Minor Chieftain that has adminstrative and ruling power of its own region. The High Chieftain and these other Chieftain meet up once every lunar cycle to deal with overarching adminstrative duties in the capital city.
Culture
The Ghostwise Dominion is overwhelmingly populated by the Ghostwise Hafling particularly five clans. Thanks to the Ghostwise Hafling's direct connection to the Etereal Plane they possess the power of teleportaion by traveling through said plane near instantly. This heavy reliace of the etereal plane causing them to treat it as a sort of sacread place that is highly important to them, therefore the use and speach related to it is not taken lightly. This also means however that they have a culture highly reliaent on fast communication and travel. Ghostwise Halflings hardly spend anytime around those they dislike therefore it is quite easy to know if a particular member of this nation respects or likes you as they will not teleport away. However, they are very quick to get distracted and bore quite easily. Their culture is one of quick resolution and snappy decision making. At the peak of the lunar cycle the Ghostwise haflings return to the Eteral Plane for a speical celebration that is said to be full of drinking and fornication, however it is hardly ever spoken about to outsiders.
Public Agenda
The Ghostwise Dominion is focused on the reclaimation of the historic Hafling lands and reunifaction of all Halfling people. The main opposition to this goal is the internal struggles of the five clans aswell as the Moon Children whose lands were once part of the ancient Hafling kingdoms. There also seems to be push back from the other races of Hafling as they view the Ghostwise Hafling as a sort of alteration of their forms and betrayers of the worship of their gods.
Assets
The Ghostwise Dominion controls large swafts of lands located to the east of the city of Steelheart, west of the Ester Peaks, and north of Lake En'Anar. This hilly terrain is full of natural resources such as coal and iron. Several cities are located in this region aswell that were created by the Kingdom Of Agraria.
History
The Ghostwise Dominion rose to power shortly after the Battle of Steelheart as the weakening of the Kingdom Of Agraria lead to a revolution in its main territory. As the territories that are now the Ghostwise Dominion were in the edges of the kingdom a power vacuum was present. Given the Ghostwise Hafling's powerful ability and peace treaties made with the people of Coalfell a peaceful take over was allowed and the humans who resided their were allowed their own clan within the Dominion. The other four clans took over the remaining regions of this land settling with great speed. In the nine years that followed the Ghostwise Dominion was able to cement its claim to the land and was offically recognised by the Republic of Agraria as a soverent nation given their strong trade ties and close proximity.
Territories
Due to the large amount of travel in and out of the Etereal Plane this area of the Etereal is weaker than most meaning travel into the Material Plane is easier here. Most travel into the Astral Sea is done through here but this is a fairly new development and has yet to be widely exploited.
