There is neither a king nor a queen for this variant of Chess. As a result, no piece in the game is royal. Instead of a king and a queen, each side has two squirrels. The squirrels occupy the squares on the board that are normally occupied by the king and the queen at the beginning of a regular chess game. Also, instead of bishops, each side has leaping elephants. Crows 'are' Rooks for all intents and purposes.
