The power of money and time.

Okay, Elly already took my idea, so I'll come up with another one: super-intelligence. With it comes the ability to understand the world, to create fantastic and fantastical new things to benefit the human race, and to generally progress the world so that it is better for everybody. I also think that an extremely high intelligence can make a person very understanding of others' thoughts, feelings, and opinions (I'm talking superpower-level, polymath-type genius; of course we all know smart people who are callous twats). With that, you could benefit and support the people you love and care about, too.

I figured this would be your response, so I clearly have something in mind for you.As for Halo's point, I don't mind if the factions get imbalanced, as these wandering adventurers can always swear fealty at some moment in the story if need be. Plus, I figured that Börsegeld would be small and unpopular, but who knows what more sheets will bring?
My character fits more with the "ambassador/merchant" type anyway, so it works out. ^^
Name: Extasis Veritas (yay4Latin)
Affiliation: Börsegeld, just to balance the affiliations of current sheets out.
Special Trait: Neither a grand conspirator nor a pawn to be used; he is crafty enough not to put himself at risk by aiming too high or too low. A skilled orator, his primary weapon lies in the art of persuasion and in his ability to convincingly adopt a charismatic air of charm. He generally wants to avoid war, both for his own purposes and for the good of the people. He is not oily and slick as many characters of this type stereotypically are; instead, he is actually rather genuine and earnest, which aids his persuasive ability, although his motivations (and what lies he may or may not be telling at any one time) are not always clear. In other words, he uses the power of speech, diplomacy, lies and guile towards the good of the nation (and, if possible, his own ends), but believes that he knows best how to do that - he's always playing his own game, not acting on anyone else's behalves or thoughts/beliefs.
Names of Towns: I'll come back to this!
Prose/Verse: Personally I'd prefer prose. This isn't a writing exercise for university; it's more a piece of entertainment. Therefore the challenge is to entertain your audience, not to stretch your writing ability to the maximum, which personally I believe will be easier and better-achieved if you're not forced to conform to some set of rules or limits on how you can write (such as rhyme/rhythm schemes, etc.) Prose is easier to write and read, as it's so much more freeform.
