Brains & Brawn

The Senate Campaign Poster of Hilda Brawn

 

About the Candidate

Hilda Adrianna Brawn is an immigrant to the lands of Balian, purchasing a property in the city at the age of sixteen, moving from her familial home in Reinmar; she always had a deep interest in the kingdom, joining the ranks of the Regiment at only ten years of age, and has been a squire of Ser Tristan de Lyons since she was fifteen. Since that time, she has gained many achievements, recently completing all of her required squire trials, and being promoted to the rank of Man-At-Arms within the regiment because of her seniority. 

 

She has also represented the House of Novellen-Tuvia in peerage meetings, because of her mind for politics and trust instilled in her by HRH Ariadne Casimira. One may argue that Hilda Brawn may be too young for such a position, yet, she is of the same age group as many of the candidates looking to take the position and has been involved in kingdom life and politics from a very young age, even putting her life on the line time and time again to defend the kingdom against threats both big and small.

 

Unlike many of the candidates, Hilda Brawn comes from a common family, having no familial links to any nobility in Balian or her home kingdom of Reinmar, meaning she can truly represent the common people of the kingdom, having shared the same struggles as the common man, and understanding what it is like to be of common blood within the city of Portoregne. How many of the other candidates can say the same?

Manifesto

What Hilda Promises:

• Bring forth the opinion of the citizens of Portoregne, no matter how insignificant they may seem.

Hilda will run weekly meetings where the citizens of the city can present their questions and concerns that they believe should be addressed by the Duana, and therefore, the Monarch. Hilda will then discuss what should be brought up and take it before the Duana. No matter the opinion, you will be able to share it freely with no judgment.

 

• Bring up the question of events for the city. More should be done to bring the city back to life.

The city has become somewhat of a ghost town of late. More should be done to fill the streets with life once more, as such, Hilda will push for more events to be hosted in the city on a weekly basis, with civilians also being encouraged to host events themselves. 

 

• Do the people of Balian feel safe? Should more be done to protect the citizens?

The current crime rate in the city of Portoregne is quite frankly worrying, with witch threats and darkspawn, and the looming threat of The Watchman and their goons, more should be done by the Regiment and Magisterium to make the citizens feel safe. Not only that, the royalty should also be more protected, with the threats of The Watchman being aimed at the royal descendants primarily. Hilda will push to change this fact.

 

• Are there too many noble Houses in Balian? Should more be promoted? Or are there too many?

What are your opinions on the amount of noble families in the kingdom? Do you feel there are too many, and the streets are mostly filled with those of noble blood? Or do you believe your family should be nobility themselves? Hilda would like to know and perhaps make changes that reflect public opinion.

 

• How represented does the common man feel? Can Hilda Brawn make you feel more seen?

Most of Hilda’s fellow candidates are of nobility, does this truly represent the commoners of Balian? Do we truly need more nobility in the government? By voting for Hilda, you can dilute the nobility in government, and add more varied opinions.

Vote for Hilda Adrianna Brawn for Balian Senate!

 

Signed,

Hilda Adrianna Brawn,

Squire of the Order of Saint Michael
