Her Royal Majesty Queen Aoife II of the Kingdom of Eigg
Thane of Kildonnan
AKA (Not public) - Nemain the Wolf of the Cult of the Morrigan

Since her birth in Kildonnan in 2000 Aoife was prepared by two people to one day assume power. First was her mother Susanna and then by the Priestess of the Royal Family, a woman called Miriam connected to the worship of the seemingly minor Gods known as The Morrigan. Her youth was filled with time split between the families ancestoral home, Maitland Castle where she was permitted to enjoy the forests and Loch. The rest of her time was spent in schools in the capital of Eigg, Cappielow. Her mother and Priestess Miriam where every present. Aoife's father, King Lucian was largely absent during her life preferring instead to sleep with his various mistresses and getting drunk with his hunting buddies. Queen Susanna put up with this until 2014 when the media discovered the infidelity and seperated from her husband Lucian. Queen Susanna attempted to take Aoife with her however this was blocked by the King and as such Miriam became the primary female influence in her life.

In late 2018 King Lucian faced allegations of sexual assault against several young noble woman including one of Aoife's classmates. The scandal grew and eventually the various members of clans inside Eigg forced Lucian to abdicate. Since abdication he has disappeared from public view and has retired to one of the families rural estates where he has effectively been under a form of exile and house arrest since his daughter came to power.

Aoife tried to forge a path towards independence for the Kingdom. She has been active in ensuring those representatives of the Kingdom sent to the Federal Councils are pro-independent and that she has removed from her inner circle any and all Republicans.

In private Miriam has still had a deep influence on the Queen pushing her towards a deeper and deeper devotion to the Morrigan and in May 2021 she was offered a chance to be inducted into the secret Cult of the Morrigan, a shadowy organisation which is dedicated to bringing power to a triumpherate of women believed to be the reincarnation of three significant Goddesses. The Cult believe that these three women will be able to defend mankind against the evil of the Shadowlands. Aoife was named as the Goddess Nemain, who is represented as a wolf.

Her Ladyship Ainsley Davis
Thane of Kirkenhall
AKA - (not known to the Public) Badb the Eagle of the Cult of The Morrigan

Born in 1984 Ainsley was the first born child of Thomas McCaul, the Thane of Glenrodes, and his wife Cecilia. She has two younger brothers.

Ainsley was educated at the ultra-strict all girls boarding school run by the Priestess of the Morrigan. She was considered a very able student and did extremely well in History and Philosophy. While at school she was part of the choir, competed in hockey and was part of the schools academic quiz team. While at the school the member of the Cult of The Morrigan then known as Badb became ill and was considered likely to die. One of the teachers at the school was a leading member of this secretive religious Cult and believed that Ainsley would be the next person the Goddess choose to take the title. The individual however recovered from illness but the Cult maintained its interest in Ainsley, something that was made easier by her mother Cecilia also being a member.

In 2005 she graduated from University with a degree in Land Management and began work for the families agricultural and fisheries business in Glenrodes. During an organised deer hunt on the land she meet Curtis McDonnell, the heir to the Thane of Kirkenhall. The pair began a relationship and in 2007 they married.

In 2009 Ainsley was inducted into the secrets of the Cult of The Morrigan by her mother and later that year inherited the title Badb the Eagle following the death of the title-holder. Ainsley has worked hard to influence her husband who has a seat of Eigg's Royal Council. She has attempted to influence him towards supporting the monarch of Eigg to take more direct control. She has also placed people connected to the Cult in places close to her husband and the royals whom she has ample access too.

In 2015 she gave birth to her son, Henry. Ainsley today spends time running the Kirkenhall estate and organizing the business of the Cult as one of its three principle leaders.

In 2021 she was instrumental in ensuring Queen Aoife was admitted into the Cult when one of the three top positions opened up.

His Excellency Grand  Marshall Kenneth MacRae
Baron of Dingwall

Born in 1967 his father was John MacRae, the Baron of Dingwall a highland farming region. His mother, Melinda, was the daughter of a local magistrate. Kenneth, or Kenny to his friends, is the eldest of three children.

From an early age he was educated in the duties of a farmer despite being the heir to a Baron's title. He would spend any school holidays helping to plant crops, tend to animals, fix fences or any other duty. He claims that by the age of 10 he was proficient in driving a tractor. Kenneth was also a keen rugby player and at the age of 12 was offered a scholarship at the Kilgreen School for Boys, a well respected private school with a reputation for rugby. He accepted the scholarship and went on to represent the schools First XV as well as the nation at U-16 and U-18 levels.

By the time he reached the end of schooling in 1995 he contemplated following a career playing rugby but instead was encouraged to go to University by his father. He attended Sleat University and studied Estate Management and Gamekeeping. While at University he represented the Federation Students at rugby. Upon graduation he began working on the family estate helping to manage a collection of five farms in the area.

In 1999 at a Young Farmers Association social event he meet a wealthy landowners daughter called Annie and the two began a relationship before getting married in 2001. The two now have a son, Bruce who was born in 2003 and a daughter, Kelly, born in 2006.

In 2000 he was asked to serve as a Special Adviser in the government on countryside affairs and he got a taste of being involved in politics. In 2003 he stood for election to the Standing Council. Between 2003 and 2017 he held various positions in the cabinet ranging from Minister of Agriculture to Minister for Cross Federation Affairs (seen as the 2nd highest position in the nations cabinet). In 2018 he confirmed that when the MacRae clan could next appoint a Grand Marshall he intended to stand for the position and began working towards that aim forming coalitions within other clans. When in March 2021 the time came he was able to claim 42% of the clan's vote in a four way race. He will serve as Grand Marshall until April 2022.
