Hello, Darius back around with some BIG changes that we need feedback on. As seen in the recent post by BretGov pertaining to the organization of a march system in the regions bordering the House space, we have begun a new experiment to see how well both lawful and PoB owner(s) players cope with such an approach to roleplay.
What does a march do?
Well, simply put, they govern the bordering territories. Each of the two existing ones will have a player volunteer that will act as the Lord Warden and thus represent Bretonia in the region. Essentially, it's a way for us to assert more influence over neighboring areas without directly coming into conflict with the other states.
In addition to this, the marches' primary goal is to act as "tax farms" for the govt, collecting funds for different projects in the future.
What is the role of the Lord Warden?
The Lord Warden, as stipulated above, is the governor of the march. He (or she) holds the title of marquess/marchioness respectively. inRP, this is a pretty prestigious position, coming with hefty benefits. Besides being the official representative of the Crown, the character will also receive a significant part of the funds collected. However, the responsibilities don't end there, as the Lord Warden also has the right to contact any corporation for the supply of bases within the march's territory. I have strongly encouraged the players to conduct shady business deals or inRP nepotism to better suit the characters and this'll remain the hullmark of these representatives.
Any feedback's greatly appreciated. And, for those interested in helping out, I am adding here too that the role of Warden for the Tau/Indep. Worlds march is still open for those interested. Contact me over Discord for more details.
