Coral Regency

The Coral Regency is a luminous alliance of sea-elf noble houses who rule the opalescent archipelago of the [@Coral Crown]. Guardians of undersea balance and elemental magic, the Regency governs not through conquest, but through diplomacy, prophecy, and ancient pacts with the ocean’s oldest powers.

Beneath the waves, their citadels grow from living coral—immaculate, elegant, and ever-expanding.

The current leader of @The Coral Regency is @Captain Nerissa Vaelcoral


Structure & Governance

The Regency is led by the High Council of Tides, a body of representatives from each noble house.

  • Final decisions are rendered by the Pearlvoice, a chosen arbiter who channels the ocean’s will through ritual scrying in @Tideglass

  • The current Pearlvoice is Arisse Nel'Quor, a seer of unmatched clarity and rumored dream-binder

Key Houses:

  • House Elaren – Keepers of prophecy and coral-forged artifacts

  • House Valtheran – Naval diplomats and emissaries to surface powers

  • House Daelshyn – Tidewardens and beast-callers who guard the reefs


Magical Prowess

The Coral Regency excels in:

  • Coralspeech – Communication with sea flora and fauna

  • Kelpweaving – Crafting living armor, tools, and homes from enchanted reef

  • Scrying Rituals – Conducted in [@Tideglass], using stillwater to peer through time and tide

Their magic is fluid, beautiful, and precise—much like their politics.


Political Reach & Diplomacy

Unlike other factions, the Regency maintains strategic neutrality, using diplomacy and prophecy to influence:

  • @Tidewatch City – Where they station seers and advisors

  • @Pearlspire – Spiritual and political capital of the Coral Crown

  • @Diadem Key – Fortress and magical bulwark against incursion

They act as mediators in regional disputes, their words often weighted as law.


Relationships

  • Allies: Trusted by the @The Tideblessed Covenant and @Skywings of the Maelstrom

  • Careful with: The @The Veythane Empire , whose expansion threatens sea routes . Wary of the menace posed by @Stormshroud Shogunate from the land of Nami no Kuni

  • Hostile toward: Unaligned salvagers and @The Black Nine raiders who violate reef sanctums


Symbols & Culture

  • Symbol: A spiral of pink and gold coral encircling a glowing pearl

  • Colors: Sea-glass teal, luminous gold, and pale pearl

  • Traditions:

    • Tideveil Ceremonies – Coming-of-age rites beneath glowing coral arches

    • Pearl Surrender – Peace rituals where offerings are made to seal diplomatic terms

    • Reefkind Oaths – Pacts made between elf and sea creature, bound in kelp and song


Sayings of the Regency

"Diplomacy is tide and undertow both."

"Speak as if the reef hears—for it always does."

The Coral Regency is not to be underestimated. They do not need warships or assassins. They have time, tide, and the wisdom of the reef.
