Everything takes place on either the main continent or one of the two mini-continents/huge islands.

The main continent is called the Red Continent, and it’s made up of France-Grise, New France, Scotland, Germany, New Zealand, and the Cursed Fields. The two side continents hold one country each, one is the Gray Nation and the other is Australia.

The Gray Nation is ruled by Gray Mann. While there is a substantial population, the military is entirely automatons. They’re quite well known and feared, although not indestructible.

France-Grise (also called Old France) used to be just France, and then the Gray Nation invaded. Everyone was evacuated safely, in no small part due to the French king’s help, and now France-Grise is an abandoned kingdom occupied by an army of automatons. Gray Mann hasn’t let citizens move into the new territory yet.

New France is exactly what it sounds like. This is where everyone from Old France went, it’s still building itself up. It’s ruled and maintained by the Marcois family.

Scotland is well known for the many demolition experts it’s produced (duh). It’s been ruled by the Degroot family for centuries.

Germany is…nobody knows what’s going on with Germany. It’s doing it’s own thing, but it’s having fun so everybody just kind of leaves it alone. There’s no royal family, a new monarch just kinda appears when the current one dies. No matter who’s in charge though, you don’t mess with Germany.

Australia is Australia. No further explanation necessary

New Zealand technically belongs to Australia, but is still independent in a lot of ways. It handles a lot of Australia’s relations with other countries. The monarch of Australia selects the monarch of New Zealand.

Scout’s Ma

She’s the queen

Technically Scout’s oldest brother rules but she helps

Deals mostly with finance and foreign affairs

She may not run the country but she certainly runs the castle. She makes sure all the servants are doing what they’re supposed to without overworking themselves

Scout’s siblings

Again, the oldest one is the current king

Everyone else is a prince

All the other siblings have various high-ranking jobs and help the eldest (Scout’s the only one without a specific position)

Scout

Because he doesn’t have a set job, he just helps wherever and however he can

He may be last in line to the throne, but he’s learned to be fast enough to be first to everything else

He‘s the biggest mama’s boy you’ve ever seen. He helps her out all the time and loves her SO much. It’s great

He also helps the servants sometimes

Knows how navigate the entire castle from outside, using roofs and the tops of towers or just plain old running through the gardens

Occasionally just runs through the castle when he’s bored

Best fighter in his family (technically he’s tied with Spy but he doesn’t know that Spy’s family)

Spends a fair amount of time with Spy just from helping him, and actually thinks he’s pretty cool. Part of him sees Spy as a father figure, but the other part buries that feeling because he just KNOWS his real dad is alive somewhere (and doesn’t know it’s Spy) so he feels bad for seeing Spy as a dad

Spy

Technically the king- was king of Old France, when the Gray Nation invaded he was the primary target

Gray Mann still wants him so he’s gone underground, staying disguised and working as the Ambassador

As pathetic as always

Only Scout’s Ma knows it’s him
