Boom. Looks like fun. Might have to smooth out the Stolt family history but the idea is there. Hey Theo, nice to see your back. [hider=Lord Jeran Gades Stolt] [b]Name of Lord/Lady[/b] Lord Jeran Gades Stolt [b]Physical Description[/b]: An impressive and battle hardened man with a thick mop of dark red hair and a fiery pointed beard to match. Lord Jeran carries the scars not of civil weapons, but of the cruel and savage implements used by the Orcish Hordes, gained over a lifetime of protecting the borders of the Osterian Kingdom. [b]Claimed Fief[/b]: [hider=Souther Reaches] [color=lightblue]2. Southern Reaches (Unclaimed): On the border of the Orclands of the vast desert, the Southern Reaches is geographically a destitute backwater that remains immensely important to the security of the lands. While it is lacking in resources, the Southern Reaches keeps Osteria protected from the Orcs, who threaten to come pouring in at any time. STATS: 400,000 Citizens | 21,000 Men-at-Arms, 2,000 Cavalry, 8,000 Knights | Produces 0 Grain/2 Gold/1 Iron | No Roads | 1 Fortress | Requires 4 Grain/Season. | 0 Unrest[/color] [/hider] [b]Basic History[/b]: It is commonly regarded that the Stolts were a rowdy and rambunctious clan originally from the Highlands, but constant bickering and quarrels (and some say rebellion) led to a quiet exile to the Southern Reaches. Over the following centuries, the Stolts built Thunderhall, the lone fortress on the brink of the southern desert to guard against the occasional band of Orcish raiders. A fierce martial discipline was established, and after a few more decades of protecting the kingdoms border, the Stolts were allowed to officially return to court. So Lord Jeran Stolt was raised amongst warriors, with a simple military code and the brief, spotty history that his family could cobble together. Regardless of the kingdoms view on the former exiles-turned kingdom protectors, the Stolts are duty bound to defend the Souther Reaches from the Hordes. When King Timault was slain by the Blackmouth Clan, Lord Stolt was devastated and took a vow of honor to destroy them. [b]Background[/b]: Champion (Bonus to Combat Rolls)[/hider]
