Fantasy RPG Forum - Standing Trials

27 Ymiden:
Rumours of an uprising against the king reach the capital from the far west of Rynmere. Informants believe Veljorn Burhan leads an army at least two thousand (2000) strong, well fed, supplied, and funded by three of the seven noble houses.

39 Ymiden:
The people take a vote for the King to act against or stay his hand regarding the uprising in the west. Some of the nobles are interviewed by the local paper to hear what they have to say.

Rules: Anyone can vote.

Things to consider from an IC POV.

1. This kingdom is going to war against itself.
2. This war will divide the regions and the people.
3. Many of the regions rely on Warwick (50%), Venora (25%), and Andaris (25%) for food.
4. If the king falls, royals from now until the distant foreseeable future will only come from noble lines.
5. While the kingdom is fighting itself, it is not expanding.
6. The king may seek outside help and alliances.
7. It's possible that this will divide the Kingdom (quite literally).
8. Normal men and women may be expected to fight.
9. Burhan supplies the kingdom with 80% of its warships.
10. Many unforeseen troubles.
