I think that power comes from a variety of places, and that to claim that power is only based on marital power makes the concept of the world very flat. So my intention was to include the fact that their are racial tendancies towards manners of rulership that harken back to "existing by ancient traditions" that may still be in effect. | I think that power comes from a variety of places, and that to claim that power is only based on marital power makes the concept of the world very flat.

Unlike the earlier incarnation of Sanctuary, the storyline is based around kingdoms with are multi-racial, rather then the races themselves. While races certainly have cultural traditions as to how they prefer to organize themselves we are not assigning racial leads; to players or staff. The lore on each of the race pages is just that, lore, players should not expect to see any reliable presence of the racial leadership in game, but rather focus on the storyline between Noble Houses. If and when a situation requires the formation of an in-game presence for any of the racial leadership it will be addressed then.
- Why the Change?
- A couple of reasons actually. One, races tend to be even more like to yo-yo then areas organized by temperament which means there a lot more time spent "propping up" races with low population and restricting those with high population. Two, unless we are willing to be very restrictive on the races, races tend to try and splinter off into more specific units -- this happened with the Muiri on Sanctuary where the dragons tried to create their own unit separate from the Muiri, reducing both populations to neither benefit. Three, creating racially themed housing is just a constant headache of not having enough of one type and too much of another.
