The Cawkate Family

Each family member has a different mark, which generally represents the strength or power of the person bearing it. The mark also conveys some kind of non-human power.
Evil
His strengths are power, courage, and the desire to protect. His mark is shaped like a sword, with several circles of varying shapes swirling around it. The mark signifies his courage and power; the kingdom depends on his decisions, and the mark shows him to be an excellent ruler. He also inherited great physical strength from the mark.
Elizabeth
She doesn't have a mark because she's not a blood relative, but the mark is passed on to other children in the family anyway.
Anna is not the biological daughter of Evil and Elizabeth, so she does not have a mark.
Cole
His strengths are a desire for justice, power, courage, and a desire to protect. He inherited Aaron's qualities. His mark is a sword, and above it is the halo of Archangel Gabriel. His mark imparted to him the divine power of an angel.
William
His strengths are determination and a heart of steel. His mark is a heart surrounded by several shields, seemingly protecting the heart.

Princess Anna Cogkate, 14, is believed to be the youngest daughter, found on the streets. She is completely unlike the rest of the Cogkate dynasty, in both facial features and hair and eye color. Most importantly, she lacks the mark on her right wrist. Subconsciously, Anna is terrified of being exposed and deprived of her luxurious life. To prove her right to the throne to the palace, she behaves doubly arrogantly, capriciously, and cruelly. Anna despises the townspeople, disdains to tread the same paths, and regularly punishes or flogs servants for the slightest misstep, trying to disguise her fear behind a mask of tyranny. She herself doesn't even know who her real parents are... in fact, her family name does not belong to a noble family. She is the child of the boyar family of Clandius.

King Evil Cogcate, 50, is a stern, pragmatic, and exceptionally prudent ruler. He rules the country with a cold hand, putting laws and the interests of the state above all else. Evil sincerely loves his sons and is raising them to be future heirs to the throne. He categorically rejects the mystical nonsense about their youngest daughter being a sign or a messenger from God. But he was not opposed to taking the child in, once the infant had landed on the doorstep of his castle. Evil believes only in what he sees and what can be proven by logic. He believes in marks and their magical power because he has seen it.
Queen Elizabeth Cogkate, 45, Evil's wife. She appears gentle on the outside, but she's actually quite emotional and believes Anna is a gift from God, and she can't help but believe it. She loves Anna more than her other children, but Evil doesn't support her position and believes only in what he sees and what can be proven by logic. He believes in the marks and their magical power because he's seen it. Elizabeth is a bit condescending toward commoners, but her stance is largely neutral. She doesn't care about them as long as she doesn't interact with them.
Prince Cole Cogcate—25 years old. The eldest son and official heir to the throne. He inherited his father's stern judgment, but thanks to his mother, he remains fair. Leon views commoners as an important resource for the state. He does not show them gratuitous cruelty, evaluating people based on their intelligence and usefulness to the crown. He has a mark on his right wrist.
Prince William Cogkeith, 17, the middle son, commander of the royal guard. He is arrogant toward peasants and commoners, surpassing many courtiers in this regard. William considers the rabble obedient cattle and demands that they bow their heads before him. For the slightest sign of disrespect or delay in his path, he orders the guards to beat people with whips. A mark is also clearly visible on his right wrist.

The financial system of Krailis clearly delineates the economic possibilities of the estates through three types of coins.
Copper coins are the currency of choice for serfs and poor villagers. They are used to buy bread and even the cheapest of goods.
Silver coins are the currency of citizens, mercenaries, and merchants. One hundred copper coins are worth one silver coin. With silver, wealthy citizens can pay for access to knowledge in libraries and develop their workshops. Schools are practically nonexistent.
Gold coins are minted coins, owned exclusively by the highest nobility. A commoner might never hold a single gold coin in their hands in their entire lives. Provincial taxes, bribes, and luxury goods are measured in gold. If an ordinary poor person is found in possession of gold, they are immediately accused of theft and brought to trial.
Every month, fairs for all classes and statuses of the kingdom are held regularly in the main city squares. They are held on the occasion of a local festival and the arrival of caravans of foreign traders from overseas countries.
Among commoners and townspeople, it is IMPOSSIBLE to encounter brightly colored clothing, or any color other than brown and dirty gray. Therefore, if a townsperson wears clothing other than these two options, they are either a merchant, a non-local, or very wealthy and very close to the nobility.

Their life and level of freedom directly depend on one of three legal statuses.
The first status is serfdom. This is the most oppressed and disenfranchised category of the population. They are inextricably bound to the lands of their feudal lords, have no personal freedom, and are the property of the nobles. Serfs live in poverty and work for basic food and shelter.
The second status is that of the villagers. These are free villagers and farmers who rent land from the nobility. They live in poverty, and their well-being depends entirely on harvests and harsh taxes. Villagers are a key force in the markets, providing food for the entire country.
The third status is that of the townspeople. They represent the golden mean between outright poverty and average living conditions. If a townsperson has a steady job (craftsman, shopkeeper, jeweler, scribe), they can easily live a simple, measured life. They are far removed from the noblemen's balls, but they have a unique opportunity: for a fee, townspeople can visit the town library and learn literacy, arithmetic, and science. They also learn through their own life experience and practice. For this reason, townspeople with above-average incomes are more likely to possess good knowledge and intelligence, which is disliked by the nobility.

Despite the rigid class boundaries, Elon has a unique law: commoners can receive noble privileges and a personal title for outstanding service to the country. This most often occurs in military or government service, thanks to personal achievement or keen intellect. However, the aristocracy sincerely despises such "new nobles." They are called upstarts and mudbloods, which is why they constantly face psychological pressure and harassment at social events.

The entire life of the hereditary nobility revolves around the capital and the royal palace. A key element of their culture are lavish balls, held regularly for various noble families. Balls are more than just entertainment, but a venue for political intrigue, advantageous marriages, and the demonstration of influence. The overwhelming majority of nobles are characterized by extreme arrogance. They despise the lower classes, considering them "dirt underfoot" and expendable, and any display of pity for the poor in high society is perceived as bad manners.

The Kingdom of Chrylis is ruled by the ancient Cogcait family. A hidden schism is brewing within this family. All true, bloodline members of the dynasty share a sacred and unique distinguishing feature—a mark that cannot be counterfeited, as it is unique to each. But each possesses their own magical power, ranging from a simple boost to earth-shattering abilities.

The Kingdom of Chrylis is a classic medieval state with a strict class hierarchy, deep class divisions, and an aesthetic reminiscent of popular princess-reincarnation romance manga.
Social structure
Life in Krailis is strictly divided into two parallel worlds: the glittering high society and the common people, who survive under its oppression. Within each class, there are strict rules and divisions.
