Clair Glass - Hiding in Bystan.
Trait: Diplomat
Name: New Monarchist Guard (Blue Guards)
Colour: Dark Blue
Stance: (+2, -1)
Money: $2,000
History: The New Monarchist Guard is a split-off from the now-defunct Monarchist Guard, which supported a return to the old line of Witkovian rulers. The New Guard, however, have made the decision to support rival claimants from the Atessan imperial dynasty to the throne based on ancient royal marriages. They support a strong, conservative monarchy but reject outright autocracy, envisioning a king with an advisory body of wealthy landowning men, a reformed Weic, to ensure the interests of the upper classes are heard. The Guard appeals to tradition, reaching out to both the peasants and rural population, and aristocrats.
Konstantyn Wojewodzki-Araya - Hiding in Pyrzyce.
Trait: Oppressive
Description: The de facto leader of the Guard is Konstantyn Wojewodzki-Araya, the son of a prestigious Witkovian noble line living in exile in Atessa. His relentless drive for power has led him this far, and there are few in the movement who would cross him. Konstantyn's ruthlessness and explosive temper have not earned him many friends, but to him it is certainly better to be feared than loved.

Money: $2,000
History: The ideas of communism are still fairly new to Witkovia, but oppression breeds reactionary responses, and interest in the party's ideology has been growing steadily over the last 10 to 20 years. Once seen as a fringe element composed of questionable individuals is more and more being taken seriously as a group who are willing to help the lower class cast off their shackles from the Rostov masters.
Political Position: Staunchly on the left side of the political spectrum, Knavikov and the FPP look to create an equal Witkovia for all the people. Popular with the lower classes for their stances on land reform and worker's rights. Many middle and upper class citizens dismiss their ideology as nothing but 'populist daydreams'. The FPP see themselves as a vanguard that will help educate and free the masses of Witkovia through a revolution.

Colour: #dbba39Stance: (-2, +3)
Money: $2,600
History: ROR is the recent successor to the Witkovian Business League, which in turn was a group of various industrialists - mostly the sons and daughters of the old Witkovian nobility; who well realize that the reforms which were meant to save it from the Rostovians came too late and were not remotely widespread enough. Proto-technocrats in disguise, they've chosen one of their members to bear the name of the rebellion as his own, claiming to be socialists to further their goals.

Henner Campfeld - Hiding in Witkovia.
Trait: Revolutionary
Let me know if I missed anything. Also, please include the province numbers in your actions. That way if you misspell their names I still know what you're talking about. I've also made the WPKA's colour yellow, because I couldn't find a colour of Coral that was distinct enough.
A quick explanation of what happened in Recz (6) and Drawno (7). Taricus and 3man75 both successfully persuaded Recz, but the Phantom Brigade had 10 IS compared to Liga Demokratyczna Witkowii's 9 IS. Therefore the PB gained control of the province. In Drawno the Soldiers of Witkovia and Robust Roberts' Organization of Rebels both managed to persuade the province, but had identical IS. Therefore neither of them gained control, but the Rostovians still lost Control.
I have to confess, I wasn't expecting everybody to start gunning for provinces so quickly. Still, what done is done.
