[quote=@Abefroeman] Paper Angel, I is going to blockades you, no food for you! Though serious question though to the GM and CO-GM if we have one, what means of redress would I have as a noble if a member of my family, or members, were taken by the Inquisition. Would I contact anyone in the Capital, or am I high and dry, without a paddle to row on the sandy river bottom. Second, if I have means of legal redress through the capital, would I be allowed to conduct an embargo/blockade upon The Vialiphate of Meletis upon the grounds of "unpaid dues/payments" for services rendered, and illegal conduct etc etc? And, to the GM, how much food would my region provide for the realm as a whole? Percentage wise? [/quote] I'm glad you asked. As far as legal appeals can go, the Church is separate from the state, and even there they distance themselves from the Inquisition for obvious reasons. Still you can make an appeal to the Church of the Sacred Flame directly. Normally they give people the runaround but given the state of affairs and the ranks of those taken. There is a good chance the case could be taken to the Elder Council for them to judge whether or not the accused are heretics/guilty. As for the Imperial government itself, short of an actual declaration of war or outright killing a house member with no cause, they have no real authority to interfere with Inquisition affairs. They are doing their job after all. Now as for an embargo on the island itself, I would point out the huge repercussions that would initial. Attempting to get a trial conducted by the Elder Council would be the safest recourse but also admittedly the most time consuming to achieve. The better your standing with the church easier that course of action would be. Edit: Food wise? That's hard to say really as I have no real base to measure your food production. I don't imagine though that it makes up a huge level of the food produced, between the Heartlands and the Expense.
