Just a quick question. One of my players in my Robin Hood Greyhawk campaign (set in the Duchy of Ulek) asked about political factions there. I know there is some for the City of Greyhawk (Greyhawk the adventure begins mentioned them). But I'm at a loss to come up with some for the Ulek we are playing in.

I need a brainstorm. As far as I know there are two: one supporting the current duke, and another supporting his brother -- Prince John. I made up a sister, the Princess of the Duchy of Ulek. So there should be three. My player has read a lot of the Record of Wortenia War novels. I haven't, unfortunately. I think this is the right place to ask for a brainstorm. I don't know if some of you read those novels, so any help would be welcome.

Oerth Journal Volume II, Issue 16 has what you want. Sorry, I don't have a link.

But the internet archive did.

Thanks, although I had to scroll to nearly the end to get to the Duchy's part of the appendix.

Hmm. My player came back and said that those were not factions. So I have to do some world building.
