UPDATES TO THE AULIC COUNCIL

 

The Last of the First

Ser Gregori Vyronov, Lord Treasurer 426 - 448 ES

 

The Lord Treasurer, Ser Gregori Vyronov, has served alongside King Karl since he first took up the mantle of Kingship. Answering the call, Ser Gregori took on a system that was inherently flawed and helped organize it so that the kingdom could boost both its financial structuring and its revenue. Under the knight, the Treasury Department was delegated into many systems so that multiple people could focus on both internal and external income, the organization of the vaults, the citizens' housing, and, perhaps, most importantly, maintaining the financial integrity of the Kingdom. 

 

With Ser Gregori’s resignation, no members from King Karl’s initial Aulic council are seated on the current council.

A Knight’s Goodbye

Ser Walton, Knight Paramount (439 - 448 E.S.)

 

Ser Walton has been serving as the Knight Paramount since 439 E.S, taking up the position after the Previous Knight Paramount, Ser Reinhardt Barclay, resigned. Following his time as Paramount, the knight sought to reform the knights so that the lackluster way it was going could be revitalized. As his first act, he sought to improve how it was that Pages and Squires were to be trained and prepared for their trials. As for Trials, while the previous system allowed the Knight Mentor of the Squire, the Oracle, and the Squire, were able to choose from a wide variety of different ones, Ser Walton structured it where each Squire would need to go through 5 separate trails that would test a wide variety of skills. 

 

In addition to the training of Squires and Knights, Ser Walton also focused on improving the keep or rebuilding it entirely. The Knight Paramount spent countless hours carefully planning the keep so it could be befitting to warriors of the crown. Tacked onto this reform of the Keep, he also issued new uniforms that were both far better armor for knights and squires, as well as more aesthetically pleasing, to be made.

A Spot Finally Filled

 

Lady Emelie de Leuven

 

Lady Emelie of House Ashford de Falstaff, recently renamed House de Leuven, has been working hard in many positions in the government of her time here. Starting under Ser Gegori Vyronov as the Kastelan of Stewardry, Lady Emelie quickly showed that she could work with a multitude of people well, finding them housing and working to clear up any problem that might arise. With continued hard work, Lady Emelie de Lauvan had proven herself worthy of a promotion, and as she had been working with the people, often new citizens many times, the King had seen fit to place her on his Aulic Council as the Komptroller of Settlement. This position has been vacant since the resignation of the previous Komptroller, Iulius Vernhart, a decade and a half prior.

UPDATES TO THE NOBILITY

 

THE VISCOUNTY OF VENZIA

& NEW LEADERSHIP

 

House Colborn continues to be relevant within the system of nobility in Haense. The House strives to not only provide supplies for the kingdom, but to maintain activity within the governmental systems such as the BSK, the courts, and the Knighthood. It is with that, that the King has seen it fit to promote the House to a Viscounty. In addition to this change, Ser Maric, who had led the house for many years after the sudden comatose death of Lord Adrian Colborn, has decided to step down and allow the way to be paved for Lady Ada Colborn. Unlike many other cultures and houses, Colborn chooses its next leaders by merit rather than by lineage. Ada Colborn continues to strive to improve the house’s contributions to the kingdom, as well as providing her own contributions by owning and managing the Karosgrad Tavern, and being a Squire within the Order of the Crows.
