Seeking an Alder of the Grandburgh

With the Grandburgh of Mordsgrad nearing completion it is becoming increasingly apparent that the Grandburgh will need a competent administrator to handle daily affairs on behalf of the Thorned Crowned. The responsibilities of the Mordsgrad Alderman are as follows. 

 

I. The sale and upkeep of homes owned by the crown to prospective settlers. 

II. The collection of taxes and tithes of the Grandburgh

III. Managing the stewards of the Grandburgh

IV. Upkeep and supplying the defences of the Grandburgh

V. Providing an annual report of Burgh affairs and news to the collective Chieftains council

The Alder will be compensated for their labours with a salary of sixty Nordish Marks per year. The Alders term shall last four years at which point another election shall take place. Only Nordish citizens may vote. For those seeking office, please make an appropriate speech in the public square

 

Seeking a Chieftain for the clanless

 

As the Throne privileges all citizens with representation upon the Chiefsmoot. The lack thereof in regards to the clanless must be rectified posthaste. To that end the clanless commons must, from their own ranks select a chieftain to speak on their behalf. The candidate preferably being an elder male.

 

It is worth noting that only citizens who are without a clan or clan ties may vote for a Chieftain of the Freemen. All candidates must of course be Fatherists, Citizens and Residents of the demesne. The responsibilities of the Chieftain of the Freemen are as follows.

 

I. The communication of Freemen interests and concerns
