Royal Court:

Grevinne Helga, Lady Vasa, 17 (3 points)
~After the previous Lady Vasa, Elda, died, it was imperative on Haraldr to remarry quickly lest the other Suehan nobles begin to believe he was grieving, a sign of weakness. Three weeks later, it became politically impossible to remain unmarried. At the next debutante ball, where Helga was presented, the Jarl stood up and asked Helga's father for her hand in marriage on the spot as she was the most beautiful girl there, breaking protocol but proving that the Jarl was, at least to all appearances, fine. In actuality, their marriage is cold, as the loss of the mother of all seven of his children has deeply affected the Jarl. She hopes that as the Jarl overcomes his grief, he will warm up to her.

Prins Viljalmur, 34 (4)
~The Jarl's younger twin, he is a follower more than a leader, albeit an extremely competent one. He is his brother's most trusted confidant, and the two of them are the best of friends. He too lost his wife in the fire that took Elda.

Prins Gunter (brother), 26 (4)
~The most ruthless of the sons of Lodbrok, Gunter does not believe in honor. He has no personal ambitions, but serves House Vasa and will remove anyone who threatens the House, even the Jarl. As much as anyone can trust him, Haraldr trusts him to handle the dirty work.

Prins Raudebjorn (brother), 23 (4)
~Raudebjorn is physically the largest, standing at seven feet tall. Far from what his enormous size and lumbering gait would suggest, he is no brute, and is actually the most learned of the sons of Lodbrok. Haraldr frequently entrusts the administration of several fiefs to him.

Prins Valgard (brother), 22 (4)
~The duelist of the family, Valgard cannot resist a tournament or a challenge. His day is filled with rigorous training, and he often emerges from his sparring with his brothers battered and bruised, but still smiling. His motives are unclear; he isn't a braggart, and will even enter tournaments under an assumed name. He is also the most honorable, and for this reason Haraldr must ensure he is out of the room when intrigue or politics are discussed. Obviously, he and Gunter do not get along.

Prins Yngvar (brother), 21 (4)
~All he wants is to be like Valgard, whom he admires. However, while a love of combat he shares with Valgard, his modesty and honor are lost on him. Whenever he wins anything, the whole world, particularly the women, are sure to know.

Prins Johannes (Brother), 19:
~The ascetic, Johannes is reserved and cold. He spends most his time with Raudebjorn reading books, or hunting deep in the woods by himself


Prins Ragnvald Vasa, 15 (5)
Prins Tyr Vasa, 10 (4)
Prinsesse Astrid Vasa (sister), 5 (2)
Prins Njall Vasa, 10 (4)
Prins Gerhardt, 2 (2)
Prins Thorvald, 2 (2)

House History:

House Vasa under Jarl Hroerek came across the sea from the distant north, fleeing an expanding ice sheet, as part of a mass migration of Suehans, their people. From their island of Orkneyjar, they raided and pillaged all of Lundland, until as a result of fecundism the island became overpopulated and the Great Suehan Army landed on the continent and conquered huge swathes of land, driving south most of the original inhabitants. Finally, an anti-Suehan coalition was formed, forcing Jarl Blatand to accept the religion and suzerainty of the overlord in exchange for being able to keep his land. Over the years, House Vasa and the Suehans became progressively Lundized, to the point that their nobles speak Lundish almost exclusively. While all speak Suehan, only the peasants do not have a grasp of the Lundish language.

Great. So far my holiday has been limited to following my GF around clothes shops (because you know, we can't do it at home?) and battling premier inn for an internet connection. Was tense. I won. I was asked why the water purifying equipment was needed to fix the broken life carrier. I put it there, because I figured the steam powered generator would require filtered water to run at maximum efficiency. Was this a logical notion?

No. So long as the water is fresh and free of large debris it should run fine.
