I am not the GM of our kingmaker campaign, but I've been selected to be the kingdom's record keeper. We've just reached layer level 10, and have had PC's come and go, though they still hold a kingdom seat...
Ruler(s):
*King: DawnFather Samuel Winchester "aka The Dawn Father"
A Human Cleric of Sarenre (10).
He came to the green belt after the Main city of Griffon's Perch had been established to spread the word of his goddess. After a time the current Baron decided that the responsibilities of ruling a burgeoning nation were too much for him and gave the responsibilities to him. He is ignorant about races that are not human and can appear to be quite racist. Generally one of the other members of court has to take him aside and explain how to treat certain races. He has been able to make treaties with all sorts of local races so far.
*Queen: Kylashia Beldane-Winchester.
Human fey-blooded Sorceress (6) NPC.
Kylashia was originally an NPC from the first book, the Old Beldane... however using good roll play (and a sweet Diplomacy Check) Samuel began to befriend her and during their weekly card game she reveild that the old woman form was a disguise, that she was actually young and beautiful. Samuel eventually ends up convincing her to marry him. Last session was their wedding.

Ariande Windsong
Halfling, Ranger (Falconer)(9), Druid (1)
Ariadne was born a free halfling in Brevoy. Her father was once an adventurer and on one of his quests he had acquired a Roc egg and gave it to Ariadne as a gift. She named him Gorrignak. Ever since then the two of them had been inseparable. Her adventerous heart at first landed her in the pathfinder society but after a couple of her fellow PC's decided the trade king wasn't noble enough to have the trade agreements that they had acquired, he made it so that the group was sent away, so they were sent to help Brevoy investigate the Greenbelt. (Which growing up on the borders of the greenbelt, Ariadne had always wanted this opportunity. Also after a run in with a bard in her youth she was introduced to the word of Shelyn and became a devoted follower, becoming skilled in a variety of musical instruments. She even took up Calligraphy when she became Councilor. She also acquired the magical Lyre of building, which has become an invaluable tool in building the kingdom.

Born and raised in Cheliax with her faithful mount Habib, a camel. She also joined the pathfinder society in search for greatness. Her hot headedness got them kicked out when she decided to with hold the trade agreements from the trade prince. For a while she was wanted in Brevoy for wrecking a district of the city while she was on a drunken rampage, she woke up the next day with a varisian tatoo and war paint on her camel. She fell in love with the NPC Akros Ismort and eventually eneded up marrying him (the after party ended up destroying the local tavern). An incident happened with one of the local boys, Tig. He ended up being blinded by lizard folk, and his father (an only parent) died on a patrol. Kephri and Akros decided to adopt him.

He often sends back postcards of him with merchants, diplomats and all sorts of people.
High priest
Jhod Kavken
human, cleric of Eristil (4)

human, Wizard (7) PC/NPC when not around.
Also originally from the pathfinder society, Bilbi has been searching for a way to break his family curse. born in an Ulfen community of great barbarians, his family was cursed with being short and puny, Bilbi's great grandfather was a giant of a man who apparently messed with the wrong sorceress. Bilbi made up for his lack of physical power by training to be a wizard. His specialty is fireball. At one point Bilbi was killed by a Troll king. The Dawnfather wouldn't stand for this and the court agreed to allow him to take out money from their coffers to hire a cleric to bring him back to life.

Spy Master
Torm Shadowraith
Halfling, Rogue (8) Magus (2)
Torm met the party as a bounty hunter, and through adventuring with him, found him to be very skillful at what he does, and asked him to be Spy Master while the old spy master (Sylvan) was off doing work abroad. Also after learning the damage he could do with magic (after acquiring a wand of shocking grasp) he began to take courses at the magic academe, deciding to become a magus (cause seriously sneak attacking with magic may be OP, but it's brilliant :D)
Treasurer
Oleg Leverton
Human, Ranger (4)
Originally the owner of Oleg's Trading post, the PC's grant him the honor of being the kingdoms treasurer. His wife Svetlana makes sure that things in Olegton are kept in order and runs the town inn while Oleg is away.
Warden
Orih
Dwarf, Monk (10)
Orih has been searching the world for a purpose, trying to prove his greatness. He comes across a handful of the court on his way to Varnhold and is told of the horrors that happened and that they were hunting down the evil doer that caused the vanishing. He asks to join and together they fix the problem (trying to leave it vague for people who haven't gotten this far). He is then brought back to the Kingdom to celebrate. The current warden steps down wanting to run a black smith, something he's always wanted to do, and so the Dawnfather asks Orih if he wants the job, which he accepts under the condition that a monastery is built in the town.
**We have a number of NPC/PC's for times when we can't get 4 PC's in one room and the others want to play. We generally just do side quests on those days. They can also make an impact on the Kingdom and PC's. Just last night the dawnfather sent for Bilbi's assistant and Bilbi stormed in with an urn leaving the dawnfather speachless. (Poor Gizzwood blew himself up casting a spell against an evil cleric... double crit failed the roll... he was using a wand he was like 2 levels too low to use)
