I think we are all in agreement here. So does anyone have any ideas for the Andrini kings list? I like rich backgrounds after all.

Yeah. I thought I made this clear in my longer post. As I
pointlessly. I'm cool with Broyan being the leader of the Larnsti heroband. Maybe there are some unaffiliate Larnsti, maybe not. I don't think it is terribly important.

I prefer it to be a subcult like Alakoring, but it doesn't really matter that much at this point. Let's just write up Broyan's Larnsti heroband and see how it looks.

This is my conception of Hardrard the Green as well. Unless Greg reviews our draft document and says "oh no, the Volsaxi have always been Vingkotlings", I think that we should go with this version.

I'm pretty sure that the Orvantes were Heortlings. In fact, I am pretty darn sure that all the tribes mentioned in the old Dawn Age writeup adopted Heort's Ways.

Has anybody heard hide or hair from Robin regarding the background for his Tarkalor story?
