CIRCUMSTANCES OF RULE

 

Colborn

The House of Colborn [alt. Haes Colborn var Venzia, s. Haes Colborn var Slesvik] traces its descent into antiquity from the Atheran Scyflings, semi-civilized tribes native to that continent. St. Carolus of Carrenhall [alt. Carr Colborn] is the first true member of the house as it is meaningfully known; for a time the wealthiest man on the continent, his fortunes - and the skill of his grandson - would catch the attentions of John II, Holy Orenian Emperor, who enfeoffed the County of Metterden to Eirik Colborn in 1548. They would in turn act as a large factor in the pacification of the Erochland, and were raised from its governors to its dukes; as such they took for their own vassals the House of Ruthern [alt. Haes Ruthern var Metterden]. With the flooding of the isles, however, their rule collapsed; while their vassal would survive the calamity with its holdings intact, the Colborns lost their lands and titles. The family would regain their recognized nobility with the granting of the Barony of Bethlenen in 433 ES to Adrian Colborn, some three hundred years later.

 

Venzia

The title of Venzia first appeared approx. 1685-1691 during the rule of Robert I, XII. Koeng i Edaleo ag Kusoraev, granted as a subsidiary barony within the greater Carnatian duchy to Henrik Kovachev, XVIII. Herzen i Carnatia, upon his reaffirmation of the House of Kovachev’s [alt. Haes Kovachev var Kovgrad] loyalty to the Haeseni crown.

 

In the era of Marus II, XIII. Koeng i Edaleo ag Kusoraev, the duke of Carnatia went missing and was declared legally dead in THE KOVACHEV ARBITRATION ACT, 1709 [alt. VE KOVACHEV ARBITRATION EDYKT, 262]; his lands, and by extension the barony of Venzia, were reverted to the Crown. It would not be separately reconstituted until 448ES when it was granted to TH Maric, II. Bossir i Bethlenen, in the ROYAL LETTERS FOR THE VISCOUNTY OF VENZIA.

 

This year marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of Colborn rule over the region. Notably, each Colborn has been chosen by their predecessors in the Scyfling way rather than the cognatic succession of great favor in recent years; that honor has by such way fallen upon Carolus Ivan. This has by extension left both a large portion of its house in what the rest of the kingdom would consider its main line, as well as left a good deal of prior patriarchs and matriarchs still living. Until this past year, the first viscount of Venzia still lived though the fourth ruled. It is partly by this logic that the other Colborn of note is Ser Baldrumm Carr, who has just last year completed his Bogatyr test and whom previously served as the III. Vikomit i Venzia.

LAND AND PEOPLE

 

 

Venzia is located atop a slope east of Lake Voron surrounded by sparsely packed evergreens that cascade down toward the water's edge. It is one of the great castles that call Lake Voron their home, sharing the shores with Valwyck, Ostervik, and Jerovitz. The castle itself is named Vorenburg after the slope it rests upon and the lake it rests beside. The path leading up towards the keep houses memorials to some distant founders of the house, Eirik, Osgod, and Carr, Saint of Carrenhall and patron saint of the house. Furthermore, directly outside the castle is the Colborns’ traditional funeral pyre, also in keeping with the scyfling style.
 

Vorenburg is a lengthy structure, spanning the entirety of the hill it rests upon, and is covered in regularly-refinished white harling which makes the keep look as if it is from a different time and place. It houses a large courtyard with a small river running through and out toward the lake. It has 6 decorative towers, with one side left entirely defenseless for a cathedral built into the keep. The windows are high above the landscape with one portion of the castle having a hoarding suspended; the authors must note, however, that this appeared to serve only aesthetic purposes. Otherwise, as our audience well knows, the hoarding would have extended towards the front. Additionally, the turrets and towers are all recreational save for the singular defensive tower in the front along with a gate. It is a sole-standing structure, and any peoples of Venzia are housed within - the vast majority if not all of the ignoble populace would therefore be the servants of the Colborns in some capacity.

Curiously, there are three smaller wooden air vents around the keep and two larger brick ones that provide air to something below the surface out of sight of the author's eyes. As there is no supporting village for the suspiciously well-maintained castle, we suspect it is some sort of enchanted celiaware business spanning the entirety of Almaris or an unapproved faux fur factory. Howbeit, it is most probably a forgery of some sort considering the Colborns’ primary industry of scyfling armaments.

WEATHER

 

Venzia has solid, easily predictable transitions between seasons, with a rather frigid wind that cascades down from the glaciers in the North. Hollies, fruit bushes, and conifers make up the only ‘harvests’ in the area.

Auth. Note

Due to the complexities of inheritance within the Colborn lineage, the authors have seen fit to recognize the Viscount of Venzia’s direct children as being a part of the primary family, while auxiliary would be the children of siblings as well as any other members of the house.

Seno

Comm. Historical

 

St. Carr of Carrenhall

Was one of the four founders of Haense and the first Knight of Haense, personally knighted by St. Karl. Furthermore, he was named baron of Carrenhall & Carrendall, became first Seneschal and Treasurer while being the richest man on Athera. 

 

Holy Ser Osgod Colborn

Knighted a Holy Ser under The Order of The Back Sepulchre. Served in Oren as Commander of Orenian troops, ending the Lorraine Uprising. Later in life, inherited the County of Metterden and Duchy of Eroch. He then secured House Ruthern as nobility by offering the imperial title of Metterden to them. When the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska was finally formed, Osgod was then the First Lord Marshal as well as a Knight of the Kongzem - as a Winged Hussar.

 

Eirik Colborn

Eirik was the Seal of St. Tobias, otherwise known as the Treasurer of Oren, 1st Baron of Slesvik, and 2ed Baron of Carrenhall & Carrendall, 1st Count of Metterden, and 1st Duke of Eroch. In his late years, he served as a commander and strategist during the Grayspine Rebellion. 

 

Matias Frederik Colborn

Was known for his diplomatic channels which bought time for Haense, and by extension the Empire, to prepare for Flay invanders. For this, he was awarded the Duchy of Eroch and is the last holder of this title to this very day. Later, he served as Palatine and fought dark forces in neighbouring countries such as Voidal Horror's.

Being greatly offended at her lack of name while a disowned member was written of, Elia Eryka sought to pen the author with growing rage.
