The Blood Sultanate

Blood Sultanate

A ninth-floor naga royal faction whose entire surviving dynasty Donut must kill before descending.

Story so far

The Blood Sultanate participates in ninth-floor faction wars. Its generated army commonly loses, but the royal family consistently survives until the end and is difficult to reach.

Because Donut once wore the Crown of the Sepsis Whore, she permanently entered its succession line. She must kill the Sultan and every other royal before the tenth-floor descent. Nihit's brother is married into the faction, giving the reporter a direct interest in stopping her.

Appearance

A naga royal dynasty protected behind its faction-war army and palace structures.

Role

The Sultanate is Donut's mandatory ninth-floor assassination target and a source of off-dungeon opposition.

Relationships

Princess Donut — Her crown status requires her to eliminate the full royal line.
Nihit — His brother is married into the faction.
Enchanted Crown of the Sepsis Whore — The crown permanently creates the succession obligation.
