Gudruns Jarldom
In the North West Shieldlands lies Gudrun's Jarldom, meeting the border with the Marble Coast and with the Hvittopp mountains to its north. Gudrun is a fierce veteran of many battles with the Orc clans of Hvittopp Mountains, the Grecians and even the Hungolan Warrior Nation. Gudrun is a well respected leader for both his strength and wisdom. Gudrun has made trade deals with the Marble Coast to keep his Jarldom prospering. Gudrun did also have a neighbouring Jarldom as a vasal but since Jarl Tanra took over, they have been at odds.
The Jarldom has within it's borders, the great forest valley of Nord Dal that acts as a natural border to the Marble Coast. The valley is practically impassable in the winter. Within this forest lurk many creatures capable of killing an entire trading caravan. The great Jotun Fjord splits the Jarldom with its deep valley walls and deep blue waters. The east of the region contains one of the Shieldlands larger lakes, Atferd, it is a beautiful clear watered lake used mostly for fishing.
The capital Fjordwall is a large city, well defended at the origin of the Jotun Fjord. The city is home to Gudrun's great keep and the great temple of Stigr, the largest temple to the god of watchers.
Military
Gudrun commands a large force of well-trained warriors. Gudrun has one of the most disciplined armies in the Shieldlands, second only to The Valkyries.
