House Taldiress, named for the First Adhalmagus, is the Imperial House of the Empire of the Nine. It is a noble House like so many others, with one change: to be of House Taldiress, it is not enough to be born into it. One must also know how to use magic. Indeed, the majority of any generation's members of the House are not born into it, but instead marry into the House, for the House values magical ability over bloodline in its membership first and foremost.

The Adhalmagus

The adhalmagus is the undisputed master of the House. Currently, that position is held by Kepeskdaar, the King of Storms. The adhalmagus holds the Imperial Citadel in Stormpeak and the Nine swear fealty to him or her.

The Nine

The Nine are the sorcerer-kings under the adhalmagus who rule the nine provinces of the Empire. Each wields almost unlimited governmental power in their province, their decrees undisputed save for when the adhalmagus intervenes.
