alright the votes have it
can't promise turn around time will be as fast as previously-its no longer the weekend
hope everyone had a happy Halloween, if you celebrate Halloween
 
okay uh
I think I'm going to count these votes even though I'd meant to close the vote because I didn't and I also hadn't started writing yet
I'm really sorry for this confusion I'm still figuring out how all these quest buttons work
I had figured out how to open voting but not to close it
I have found the button now I won't make this mistake again
thank you for bearing with me-this is my first time doing this

Character Creation Part 3: The Realm
The Fortress of Akendorf is a fine place to start a principality, neither you nor Kléber Schulman will be the first to rule from this site. Its fortress is built upon ancient dwarven foundations, and the original elements still apparent show readily the skill and care put into their construction. The haphazard accumulation of additional construction sprouting around the dwarven works much like mushrooms off a log. Though inferior in craft the result is still a formidable fortification, if one that would cause a proper dwarven engineer to die on the spot from apoplexy at the sight. Akendorf shelters a little under three thousand souls beneath its walls or so its said, above average for the region. Locals take a certain amount of pride in the settlement's lead mines and quality tailoring.

It is your city now. From an early age you've made an effort to learn how to influence people, a skill honed by years living outside your homeland where many are ill inclined towards you based merely on your accent. Turning his men against Schulman was hardly the work of a master plan, but an experienced member of the expedition you were turned to for advice, and you made an effort to befriend those in whose hands your life may have wound up. As Schulman's erratic nature drove the expedition and Akendorf into increasingly dire straits, overthrowing him was a risky gamble aimed at salvaging things. It went rather well all things considered but unfortunately there was one thing you forgot to think through-now Schulman's mess is your own. Rule is something of an unexpected life event, but it seems to you the best rulers you've known went on grand campaigns to expand their realm. Conquering the Empire seems perhaps a bit overly ambitious but the Border Princes? Doable. Maybe Tilea while you're at it. Fortunately the problem of rule is not your problem alone, as you've already begun the work of assembling a court of sort to advise your rule. You think you can trust them. Maybe.

Once again brief moratorium on voting to allow people to think
we're at the end of character creation here, thank you everyone for participating so far
you didn't spend all the destiny points and I said there wouldn't be a reward for that but after a long discussion with Dan I've decided to offer this prize, a photo of a very excellent cat

So we are choosing Krorod as a military advisor and Bratret for economy, right? Like c'mon. They literally the only good option in their respecting categories.
 
[X] Plan Ragtag Bunch
-[X] Dieter Glehn
-[X] "Boss"

-[X] Gerald Reichleitner, Enthusiastic Witch Hunter
 
I see the humor in this vote... also our name should be fake-transylvanian, so i'll vote for a plan with our name being Igor
 
[X] A Bunch of Shady Characters But Did Not Pick the Shadiest Character
-[] Igor Hunyadi
-[] The First among "Equals"
-[] Diomira Bethmann, Priestess of Rhya
-[] Iancu, your little brother (loyalty)
-[] Krorod Goldmight, Ogre maneater
-[] Bratret Gobracsson, dwarf accountant
-[] Fulberto Pignotti, Verezzan Merchant (relations)
-[] Kunibert, Priest of Ulric

Edit: Rhyan priestess, seems ok, gives us plants and trees, our brother since family as per Vin Diesel memes, the ogre to knock heads around, though i doubt his actual command abilities but we'll cross that bridgr when we get there, the dwarf to keep us within the budget, the merxhant who i hope is a travelling merchant, and a priest of Ulric in a very warm place is amusing, though i can pick the Haedryk pruest or the taalite if suggested.

Naming our PC as Vlad Tepes yet not making him a Count?! For shame!😂
 
In case anyone was wondering what your brother's qualifications are for the varying positions, the answer is he doesn't really have any but you did promise your mother you'd look after him
oh and a celebrant is an extremely radically zealous follower of taal
