Folklore[]
The Kingdom of Storms comprises the NW US states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Alaska. It is one of the most recently established (comparatively speaking) Kingdoms of New Faerie. Perhaps owing to its modernity, it was the first Kingdom in all of New Faerie to reawaken with the Great Thaw and begin to re-establish itself.
During the time of the Old Kingdom, it was ruled by King Brian Innis Kilrain, a renowned and well-respected leader, however young he may have been. Although he had a particular knack for politics, he alas was highly susceptible to the drab world of humans and faded early on in the Long Winter, never to reawaken, leaving his sister - Lolly - as the only remaining member of the royal family.
The Kingdom of Storms, once a part of the Kingdom of Pacifica, broke away after its first (to-be) King politically maneuvered to establish the PNW as a territory unique unto itself and worthy of its own monarchy. Via mutual agreement, the two coastal kingdoms split in a peaceful alliance.
