Locrati

The Locrati Dominion is a proud nation of Elves which has stood the test of time as the longest standing nation on Vals’kar. A population made up of a strange combination of Drow and Wood Elves, it is a country that has little need of outside aid or interaction, save those things the well-travelled population seek to enjoy from other places around the world. Embracing both the surface and Underdark, Locrati is significantly larger than it appears on a map, and its population of 1.6 million ensures a healthy economic climate and intimidating military presence. While the country exists without a centralized government, the metropolis of Locrat bears the Underwood Alliance Court, where every economic, militaristic, and social policy that affects the entirety of Locrati is developed, debated, and implemented.

Laws

While the socially accepted laws across Vals'kar apply in Locrati, there are a couple outliers listed below:

Each generation, each House must have one family member wed a member of the opposite race (Drow must wed Wood Elf and vice versa).

Outsiders are not permitted to enter Locrat without written permission from a Head of one of the Houses. If access is granted, they must be escorted at all times. Punishable by death.

Any sightings of undead are to be reported to Locrat as soon as possible. Withholding information about the undead is punishable by hefty fines, being exiled, or death.

Necromancy in any form is outlawed. Punishable by death.

All deceased are to be cremated within 3 days of passing, unless a concerned party can convice their House to stay cremation in the face of resurrection magic.

Culture

Locrat doesn't have a centralized government, but instead the Heads of the various Houses in Locrat operate jointly to keep the country safe. The Wood Elf Houses are House Fenglor, House Lakolm, House Delsaran, and House Aestin. The Drow Houses are House Zyzlyn, House Drizago, and House K'yrol. Each House, and the land it controls, have varying customs and cultures.
