Kingdom of Manchego


Kingdom of Manchego

A small village in the middle of a large grassy field. A 4 ft wooden palisade wall surrounds the perimeter of the tiny kingdom. Bordering the outer wall and moving inward, are simple tiny farm houses with well tended fields growing various types of grain. The occasional windmill is sprinkled through out the farming region but stand no more than 12 feet tall. A handful of these farms produce different types of berries (blueberry, boysenberry, loganberry, etc).

The kingdoms inhabitants consist of ~500 mousefolk and one large mutant harengon zombie named The Foo.

Unlike other kingdoms the citizens of Manchego don’t quite understand the use of gold and silver. Instead they deal in berries, grain, and most important of all… cheese.

Manchego Castle

At the kingdoms center, lies a courtyard surrounded by an 8 ft stone wall and ~20 ft tall castle. Both are constructed of bluish grey river stone. Legend says that these were a gift from the Lake Deity (Eldath).

In the main courtyard, leading up to the castle entrance are 5 statues magically carved out of the blue grey river stone. Each of these statues depect Manchegos finest heroes.

  1. Thin mouse with a goofy smile dancing, standing next to a shorter mouse with an oversized head holding beakers in each hand. (Pinky & the Brain)

  2. Mouse with a magnifying glass and smoking a pipe. Wears a overcoat and cap. (Basil of Baker Street, The Great Mouse Detective)

  3. Mousefolk casting lightning bolt (Pikachu)

  4. Regular mouse, pushing a thread spool with placard reading “Hope springs eternal”. (Mr. Jangles, The Green Mile)

  5. A thin female elf with boyish features, riding a reindeer with a long sword drawn toward the heavens. The front feet of the reindeer rise off the ground as if the steed is about to take flight. Stands the tallest at an impressive 5 ft. At the bottom a placard reads the following:

    "Charles de Valois, first noble of Evermeet. Eldest lord of Nailo de Valois and Drusilia de Orleans. First General of Enforcement. Duke of Valleylorn. Second lord of Orleans. Champion of the Army. Battalion leader of the gnome wars. Scholar of mediocrity…"

The High Court of Manchego

King Zeepyjeep Grayfur VIII along with a high court consisting of 4 advisors rule over the kingdom. They are known for being kind, peaceful and just.

King Zeepyjeep Grayfur VIII

An older and rather large (fat) mousefolk with grayfur as his name would suggest. The oversized golden crown with a white fur rim is constantly falling over his eyes, causing him to pop it back up. He speaks very quiety in a series of soft chirps which is often hard for non-mousefolk to understand.

Feetoveet Whitefoot

A young and thin mousefolk with whitefur. He is the kings translator and speaks with a deep booming voice that doesn’t match his small stature.

Yeetuweep Brownfoot

The high priestess of the Lake Deity (Eldath). Older mousefolk (late 70s in human years), and wears flowing white and green robes.

Geetobeep Redpaw

The commander of the Knights of Manchego. Strong and confident auburn fur.

Veepakeek Wildwhisker

Middle aged mousefolk with whiskers that stick out in every direction, most of which are bent and gnarled. She talks at rappid pace. Often found constructing amazing clockwork gadgets and alchemical concoctions. Loves her coffee.

The Foo

Once an enemy of Manchego set on the distruction of its inhabitants, The Foo is now a valuable member of society. Brother Hug reanimated this fearsome mutated harengon. Standing at 10 feet tall he towers over the mousefolk. Wears a backpack containing two large tanks of liquid (green > enlarge, blue > healing) with hoses into his arms. Can be found helping with building construction or “playing” soccer with the youngsters.
