The Phoenix Court (High Elf Politics)

• Compete over loreful Seats, each with its own flavor text and thematic effects
  
• Deeply integrated with High Elf gameplay: buildings, edicts, traits, technologies, rituals, and even post-battle options all have political effects
  
• Adds over two dozen Intrigue dilemmas to all participating factions
  
• "Insult" system lets your rivals react realistically
  
• Clear, fully integrated help text guides you on your path to power

• Changing weather, seasons, and lighting beautifully measure the passage of time
  
• Animated flames and candles that light when you reach a goal, translucent windows and other visual touches fully immerse you in the Court ambiance
  
• Even generic UI elements change when you are in the Court, for the maximum elf experience

• The Court creates a significant disadvantage for High Elves by blocking normal diplomatic confederation, balanced out by the positive effects of Court Seats
  
• Court Seats buff underpowered and underused elements of the faction, adding choice while avoiding excessive power

• Some events trigger (official) voiced dialogue from other faction leaders, and all include detailed, immersive flavor text
  
• Event text is rewritten (fifteen times!) to be unique to the Kingdom involved: interacting with each Kingdom is unique both story-wise and mechanically
  
• Usurping Seats creates thematic consequences. Each Kingdom punishes you in a different way
  
• Claim every seat for a final event unique to your faction, choosing between loyalty and ambition

A sanctuary of learning and philosophy, the White Tower of Hoeth is also a powerful force in elven politics.

Examples:

• High Priestess of Lileath - Crafts magical items for you.
  
• Grand Historian - Improves relations with other long-lived races of Order.

Ulthuan has an elective kingship, and its noble houses strive for centuries to position their candidate to be the next Phoenix King. Between such struggles, day-to-day administration falls to a council of princes and lower nobles.

Examples:

• High Priest of Mathlann - Summons a great Merwyrm when fighting at sea
  
• Royal Seneschal - Grants Influence for each Council of Nobles seat

The Everqueen's position is hereditary, requiring no election. Thus, its intrigues focus on gaining Her Serenity's attention, which is drawn as easily by poetry or dance as strength of arms.

Examples:

• Oracle of Isha - Empowers the "Banish Corruption" province edict.
  
• Consort of the Everqueen - Permits vision over all Magical Forest regions.

• Play as any of the Ten Kingdoms of Ulthuan, each with unique political strengths
  
• Fulfill the unique, lore-based goals of each Kingdom in order to unite with them
  
• Normal diplomatic confederation is disabled for the Ten Kingdoms; earn it at court!

Six out of ten Kingdoms are playable in the vanilla game. The other four still participate in the Phoenix Court, but will be unplayable unless a mod supporting them is installed. The following mods are fully supported:

• Alshua's Ellyrion (for Ellyrion)
  
• medusa0's Surthara Bel-Kec (for Tiranoc)

And the following two mods are fully functional but still await tweaking to make text match their new faction leaders:

• Cataph's High Elf Sea Patrol (for Cothique)
  
• Mixu's Legendary Lords (for Chrace)
  
• Note: Saphery is represented by Teclis, and Caledor by Imrik

Though politically weaker, the Elven Colonies also participate at Court.
