Bolds

The Boldic peoples are a mixture of Galdic and Empardian.

The Boldic culture of men are descended from several ancient Galdic groups, namely the Valgalds and Cargalds. These lands were subjugated by Empards from Aedor during the Middle Imperial Age, forming the constituent kingdoms of Carboldica (Carmondy), Valba (Valcay) and Gorbadia (Gorwad).

The Bolds are a lordly and kingmaking people, distinct from the more tribal Galds and imperialistic Empards. Knightly tradition has its roots in Boldic culture, stemming from the days when Aedorian governors instituted several chiefs as local protectors and vassals. The name 'Bolds' is speculated to come from a title granted by an Aedorian emperor, who was impressed by his auxiliaries' valor in battle.
