Does this imply a retcon of Johanessburg? It says they can’t be made into explosives.

A New Candidate for Mayor of Helena
TO THE GOOD CITIZENS OF HELENA,
Hark! Sons and daughters of the Empire, our great imperial city once more is presently engaged in the fine tradition of electing its own leader. We are privileged and honored by the Emperor’s grace to enjoy a degree of autonomy within the local government of this great City. Alas, our current Mayor is not seeking re-election. Hence, we are pleased to announce...
Vote Cecil V Halcourt for Mayor of Helena in two Saint’s Days. Local elections officials have spread word that the election will take place in two Saint’s Days at Varoche Hall, across the street from the tavern, in the Vesian fashion. What this means is that you must show up to Varoche Hall at the designated time, and voting will take place then and there. Cecil’s victory will surely be announced by the end of that night.
(Click here for the post with more information on the election. It will be held this Sunday, Dec. 29th @ 5pm EST)
If you have questions, comments, or inquiries for the good man who will surely be your next Mayor, you may visit 8 Manston Road in Helena to chat with him or a member of his campaign staff. You may also tack replies to this poster and we will send a response via courier posthaste.
Yours sincerely,
Cecil V Halcourt
Candidate for Mayor

========================================= Name of the Treaty: Common Sense Act, 5th of Sun's Smile 1665 ========================================= Type of Treaty: Alliance (Closest out of those listed. As subjects, their land is Renatian territory, and they are lawfully sworn to the King, and are part of one nation.) ========================================= [Nation] Kingdom of Renatus [Vassal] The Renatian Church [Vassal] Principality of Hanseti [Vassal] Duchy of Adria [Vassal] Margraviate of Ostmark [Vassal] Margraviate of Styria [Vassal] County of Kastrovy [Vassal] Barony of Arbor [Vassal] Barony of Radom [Vassal] Barony of Stettin [Vassal] Barony of Nevaria [Vassal] Barony of Leeuwenhof [Vassal] Barony of Goza [Vassal] Barony of Vrakai [Vassal] Barony of Pembroke [Vassal] Barony of Vilacz ========================================= Date of Signing: 1655 =========================================The Kingdom of Renatus holds vast territory, with many diverse peoples owing fealty to His Royal Majesty the King, Aurelius Horen. Throughout the years, many lords and ladies have sworn to the Horen scion, adding their armies to the Renatian horde, and finding peace through service. These various folks together comprise the Renatian nation – from Adria to Ostmark, they collectively form the heartland of humanity.
Law and logic assert these men and women as subjects of the Renatian crown. They therefore, quite naturally, assist one another. The Renatian armies defend her people; her people, in turn, offer tax and levy to the crown. It is a trade off – a feudal hierarchy. Some of the Renatian vassals themselves have vassals. Just as the leaders of the more powerful fiefdoms were awarded land and office by the King, so to do they offer land and office to subservient lords and ladies. The feudal hierarchy is as follows.
King of Renatus | @Sultan
- Local Church Representative | @A Moongazer
-
Duke of the Crownlands | @Sultan
- Margrave of Styria | @c_h_a_r_l_e_m_a_g_n_e
- Count of Kastrovy | @Gressy
- Baron of Vrakai | @Steazus christ
- Baron of Radom | @Graf
- Baron of Nevaria | @Capace
- Baron of Arbor | @L0rdT0mas
- Baron of Stettin | @Godwein Stafyr (Z3r05t4r)
- Prince of Hanseti | @The Lion
- Duke of Adria (also this) | @VonAulus
- Margrave of Ostmark (formerly the County of Geatea, before being raised to a Margraviate) | @Pun
Various documents exist which notate and reinforce this subject status. Usually these exist as letters patent, royal letters, or other letters from the King or his Council which notate the privileges and expectations offered to individuals and in future their progeny. Copies of these exist in various legal libraries in the capital, and naturally each person awarded such a letter would maintain copies, so as to secure their rights were it to be taken to court, or challenged in any other way. These letters would serve as documentation of the feudal hierarchy. [Copies of any are linked above; click the name of a vassal.]
However, at times there would be land awards without such letters or documentation, or other documents would exist, such as the Adrian Proclamation. These vassals would merely swear a verbal oath to their liege lord, and begin their service without such regalia. Whether or not such a documented award was given, it is clear that those enfeoffed with land and titulage owed service to the crown, and would be expected to maintain justice, law, and order in their lands. In exchange for privilege and esteem, they are required to rally a levy, pay taxes, et cetera. Renatian vassals are expected to do as follows.
- Rally as a singular entity, calling forth all their levy and banners.
- Allow the crown to negotiate foreign policy.
- Maintain law and order in their subject territories.
- Negotiate and pay taxes to the King.
- Uphold the lawful orders of the crown always.
[All tagged parties, please reply with a signature containing some roleplay, your character's name, titles, and such, notating the terms as per alliance rules.]

“It’s another day nearer the battle!
So drink up, lads, and look brave...
For another day nearer the battle
Is another day nearer the grave!”
— The official cadence of the Brigade
The Southern Brigade is a militant brotherhood lead primarily by seasoned veterans of Curon’s war machine, and which fields multiple regiments under their command. The mission of the Southern Brigade is to protect the Principality and serve as a peacekeeping force within the southern lands of Atlas. Activities of the Brigade include monster hunting, sea or land based warfare, and additionally the general assistance of the crown in enforcing law throughout the nation.

“We Brigadiers do not serve without reason.
We pick up the sword and shield now,
So that we may one day pick up the plow.”
— Ser Sylvester Halcourt
The Southern Brigade is a conduit for excellence; its Brigadiers are rigorously trained and forged into true men of war. There is a sense of camaraderie and fraternity amongst its ranks. Even when not marching off to war, they are brothers in arms. Additionally, a number of benefits are owed to our loyal Brigadiers.
-
Assignment of skillfully crafted armaments. Steel plate armor, ferrum weaponry, and shields which bear the emblems of the Principality are given freely to its ranks. Some of the best smiths in Atlas are in the Brigade’s employ.
-
Unlimited flow of food and drink. The Principality brews its own drinks, from fine wine to hearty ale. Additionally, there are skilled chefs who lend their services to us.
-
Opportunity to ascend the social ladder in some form. One may begin as a mere pawn in the Brigade’s ranks of foot, but in time rise through the ranks and prove their worth, eventually perhaps earning tenure elsewhere by way of the Brigade.
-
Service to the Principality. The Brigadiers are good men of the regnum Curoniae. It is the duty of every righteous and honorable man to give service to his nation. The Brigade is a prime way of doing so.
-
A new home. Those who enlist are given free residence in one of the Brigade’s barracks. Additionally, its recruits are inducted into a brotherhood whose bond is unto death. Good folk whom serve the Principality will find their home here in more ways than one.

« Mᴀʀsʜᴀʟʟ »
The Marshal is the commander in chief, bar the Prince, and the final decision maker of the Brigade. Their word is law, especially on the battlefield, although they will tend to coordinate if not be subordinate to whoever is acting field marshal during wartime.
« Cᴀᴘᴛᴀɪɴs »
The Captains lead the regiments of the Brigade; they are the direct commanding officers of the common enlisted men. They are the backbone of the officer corps, as the de facto leaders of their regiments, and their ever loyal service is a true necessity. The Sergeants answer to their Captain directly.
« Rᴇɢɪᴍᴇɴᴛs »
The Regiments include all the various assignments and divisions of the Brigade. All Brigadiers are assigned to a regiment, and have a direct commanding officer. There is strict hierarchy within each, and ascension is difficult but worthwhile.

‣ Bɪʟʟᴇᴛs
A billet is the secondary job a Brigadier is assigned. Of course their primary duty is to fight, but fighting requires food, weapons, armor, housing, and much more. Therefore each and every Brigadier is given a specific billet so that they may assist their brothers in the maintenance of Brigade property and collection of necessary resources. All Brigadiers are assigned a billet upon achieving the rank of Orderman 3rd Class.
This is after they have completed their basic arms training. As they become better and better at their billet, they ascend through the classes of the billet, eventually perhaps becoming the master of that billet. The classes are described below, and under that is a list of billets by category and designator.
One’s billet is described on the roster with their class and designator. So for example an MC1 is a master of the class C1, which is blacksmithing. Each class has a duty within their regiment and the Brigade as a whole; for example, masters help to train recruits in their billet so that they may become better at it. There is a rigid hierarchy to organize the production and maintenance of the Brigade.
CLASSES
R Recruit — The recruit has simply picked a billet and is not yet assigned a trainer. For now they focus on their arms training.
T Trainee — The trainee has been assigned a mentor who is skilled in their billet to teach them it. They will learn the basics and begin to work for the Brigade in full.
G Graduate — The graduate has completed their training and is proficient in their billet. They will begin to work properly for the Brigade.
I Instructor — The instructor has worked their billet long enough to know its ins and outs. They will help to teach the recruits.
M Master — The master is the best that the Brigade has to offer for that specific billet, overseeing Brigade activities relating to it and reporting to the Marshal himself.
ALPHA | CONSTRUCTION
A1 Architect — This billet is tasked with the construction of Brigade facilities and upkeep of Brigade properties. They are to make things functional and aesthetic. To be assigned this billet, one must pass rigorous tests to ensure they are properly skilled.
A2 Stonemason — Masons gather materials for and craft brick, stone brick, and other materials that an architect needs, among other things.
BRAVO | COLLECTION
B1 Miner — The miners are the backbone of the Brigade. They gather iron and other resources for the Brigade’s smiths to use. These reagents are necessary to fuel the Brigade, and so miners are always in high demand.
B2 Woodcutter — This billet simply gathers a variety of wood types, although it is not for this reason that they’re important. While doing so, they often find specific varieties of staffs, such as windswept staffs, which the Brigade’s smiths require to make the top notch weaponry that all are issued.
B3 Farmer — An army marches on its stomach, a wise man once said. Therefore the farmers of the Brigade are a very important billet as well, feeding the masses of Brigadiers before they march off to war.
B4 Breeder — Breeders ranch and breed livestock. Additionally, they selectively breed horses to give the Brigade’s cavalry an edge in battle
CHARLIE | CRAFTING
C1 Blacksmith — The blacksmiths are a very important and elite billet. The Brigade employs only the best of smiths, and they rarely take on apprentices. This maintains a great quality of armor and weapons. However as a result, it’s hard for Brigadiers to be given this billet.
C2 Alchemist — The alchemist is one of the billets that make the Brigade supreme on the field of battle. Spending countless hours brewing stoneskin potions, alchemy fire, and much more, they give the Brigade an edge none can combat.
C3 Cook — The farmers get the produce; the cooks refine it. They make exquisite breakfasts, lunches and dinners for the Brigade’s Brigadiers.
DELTA | PROFESSIONAL
D1 Medic — The medics are what keeps the Brigade alive, literally. When one is wounded in battle or otherwise, they are treated posthaste by one of the Brigade’s medics. This is one of the only billets which women are allowed to be; women may enlist and be assigned as a medic however their combat duties are very restricted.
D2 Reportmaster — The Brigade has often one or two reportmasters whose duty is to maintain the roster and other Brigade documentation. They also conduct the annual census, among other things, and are general accountants.
D3 Quartermaster — Usually the Brigade only has one quartermaster, whose duty is to organize and maintain the warehouse and armory. They are in charge of assigning armaments as per protocol as well.
D4 Barrister — This billet is rarely filled, and usually only given to seasoned legal professionals. A barrister is one who argues in court on behalf and in defense of the Brigade, and is the designated prosecutor in all cases of a court martial against an Brigadier, or a tribunal, etcetera.
ECHO | SPECIALTY
E1 Instructor — Sometimes the Brigade assigns instructors, whom are senior enlisted personnel tasked with the training and oversight of their junior enlisted peers. They conduct training, brackets, etcetera and help to refine the common recruit into a good Brigadier.
E2 Tailor — The tailor is in charge of helping to fix uniform errors and keep the Brigade’s Brigadiers up to standard, as per the handbook. [Must be a proficient skinner to help edit new recruits’ uniforms, to add medals when people are assigned them, etc.]

“Tell them of us and say
For their tomorrowWe gave our today.”
— Sylvester Halcourt
‣ Mᴇᴅᴀʟs
The medals a Brigadier bears are displayed proudly upon his breast, awarded by their Marshal, Captain, etcetera.
‹ Hᴏɴᴏʀᴀʙʟᴇ Cᴏɴᴅᴜᴄᴛ Mᴇᴅᴀʟ ›
The 3rd degree, which is the first one assigned to honorable Brigadiers, is assigned to those who outwardly display their moral and ethics above and beyond the call of duty. The 2nd and 3rd degrees are given exclusively to absolutely outstanding individuals.
‹ Dɪsᴛɪɴɢᴜɪsʜᴇᴅ Sᴇʀᴠɪᴄᴇ Mᴇᴅᴀʟ ›
There is but one degree of the distinguished service medal, which is awarded to those who perform exceptionally meritorious service to the Brigade. Usually the award is given to those who achieve the rank of Brigadier, although it is sometimes awarded beforehand if the individual is particularly exceptional.
‹ Tʜᴇ Bʟᴀᴄᴋ Cʀᴏss ›
The Black Cross is awarded by the Marshal to those who suffered grievous wounds. If one dies during their service, their family will be awarded a lump sum of mina as well as a black cross in remembrance of their lost son.
‹ Tʜᴇ Bᴀᴛᴛʟᴇ Sᴛᴀʀs ›
Battle Stars are awarded for participating in a warclaim; 5th class is awarded at 2 warclaims, 4th class is awarded at 4, 3rd class is awarded at 6, 2nd is awarded at 8, and 1st is awarded at 10. They are generally a good indicator of how good a fighter someone is; to survive so many battles must mean they’re doing something right.
‹ Tʜᴇ Oᴄᴇᴀɴɪᴄ Sᴛᴀʀ ›
The Oceanic Star is awarded for acts of bravery and heroism during operations involving naval action.
‹ Tʜᴇ Pᴜʀᴘʟᴇ Sᴛᴀʀ ›
This is the highest honor an Brigade man can receive. It can only be awarded by His Serene Highness, the Prince of Curon, and is granted for acts of extraordinary valour in the line of duty. Whoever is granted this medal will be remembered as a hero.
‹ Tʜᴇ Gᴏʟᴅ Rᴏsᴇ ›
Awarded to officers and acting unit leaders who show exceptional leadership in battle or during otherwise life-threatening situations. Awarded with finely crafted carberum swords when earned on the battlefield.
‹ Hᴜsʜᴇᴅ Hᴏɴᴏʀ Mᴇᴅᴀʟ ›
The Hushed Honor is awarded to Brigadiers who have completed highly classified missions. They are therefore recognized for their necessary service within the Brigade, although once the mission is declassified they may be awarded another relevant medal, depending on what missions they completed.
‹ Dᴇᴄᴜʀɪᴏɴ's Cʀᴏss ›
Awarded to Brigadiers who has served in the Brigade for no less than 10 years. The name, decurion, is a reference to various past military organizations. A decurion is a Captain of 10; a low level officer. The Brigade, however, does not employ such terminology, opting for more modern nomenclature.
‹ Aʀʀᴏᴡ Pɪɴ ›
AWarded to Brigadiers for acts of bravery in the field. This medal was first awarded to Cecil I Halcourt, circa 1468 after he supposedly rode through a volley of arrows with his Petrus Watch to kill an orcish dominus.
‹ Mᴇᴅᴀʟ ᴏғ Fʀᴀᴛᴇʀɴɪᴛʏ ›
The fraternal medal is awarded to those who are true icons of the Brigade. They define and display the characteristics of the brotherhood. The medal is a very high honor, almost on par with the Purple Cross.
‹ Eᴄʜᴏ Pɪɴ ›
The echo pin is awarded to those Brigadiers whose parents also served in the Brigade at some time. This is a recognition of their family’s military service and heritage. This is very rarely given out; few have fought for generations.
‹ Mᴇᴅᴀʟ ᴏғ Aᴄʜɪᴇᴠᴇᴍᴇɴᴛ ›
The medal of achievement is awarded to those who spearhead an operation the Brigade undertakes. This could be, for example, a covert infiltration of an enemy government or perhaps the construction of a new Brigade camp premises.
‹ Mᴀʀᴋsᴍᴀɴ's ᴍᴇᴅᴀʟ ›
The marksman’s ribbon is given to those who display exceptional skill with a bow or crossbow. They are also issued a higher grade bow than normal Brigadiers. The Marshal himself may only test would-be marksmen and award this medal.
‹ Mᴀsᴛᴇʀ's Rɪʙʙᴏɴs ›
As one achieves different grades in their billet, they are awarded the varying degrees of the master’s ribbon. Recruits are given the 5th degree, trainees the 4th, graduates the 3rd, instructors the 2nd, and masters the 1st.‹ Tʜᴇ Kᴀᴇᴅʀᴇɴɪ Rᴏsᴇ ›
The Kaedreni Rose is awarded to those who display the utmost patriotism and nationalism. They are true Curonian citizens; physical embodiments of our national identity. This is a somewhat rare honor, often only given in reaction to great feats. If one perhaps saves the Prince from an assassin in a legendary tale of heroics, they might be awarded the Kaedreni Rose.‹ Rᴇɢɪᴍᴇɴᴛᴀʟ Cᴏᴍᴍᴇɴᴅᴀᴛɪᴏɴ ›
Regimental commendations are awarded by Captains to those they believe have done very well. The Marshal himself will later meet with the rewarded Brigadier and issue them a mina bonus. This is a common medal given out, in recognition of active and good service to the Principality.‹ Bʀɪɢᴀᴅɪᴇʀ Rɪʙʙᴏɴ ›
The Orderman’s Ribbon is awarded upon completion of basic arms training.‹ Mɪɴᴇʀ's Pɪɴ ›
Given to any miners who donate at least 6 crates of iron to the Brigade, as well as a large mina bonus, this is in recognition of those who contribute the most important resource the Brigade needs. Iron fuels an army. Swords, axes, shields, armor, and all are borne of iron. This medal therefore exists to motivate good Brigadiers to help feed the beast that is our armory.‹ Kɴɪɢʜᴛ's Cʀᴏss ›
Knights who enlist in the Brigade are given a special cross in recognition of their masterly service to the Principality. This is also given to Brigadiers who have through their service been knighted. It is a great honor, as only the Prince himself may knight people.

The City of Cyrilsburg is the center of the Principality of Curon, as its capital and the seat of the Prince. As the August Administration's leadership is tasked with national policy, international diplomacy, and more, the Cyrilsburg Municipal Government administrates the capital. This government is headed by a Mayor, and the Mayor is elected by the Curonian populace. He oversees the stewardry and other municipal officials. As our first Mayor's term comes to a close, we once more seek good candidates.
We do thus reach out to those esteemed citizens of Curon that would seek out this office, and enter a life of public service. The Administration doth require that each candidate prepare a speech, printing it upon posters, and distributing it across the nation. After a few Saint's Days, all candidates shall be allowed to hold a public debate. We encourage like minded individuals to approach the Administration if they intend on forming internal polities of any variety - political groupings, parties, or what have you.
–––––– Serve your nation. Run for office today. ––––––
One may at first declare their candidacy alone, but it mustn't stay that way for long. By the time of the election, we expect a split ticket. This means that both a Mayor and Deputy Mayor are joined together, and hold one place on the ballot. For example, mayoral candidate Jerry and his deputy mayoral candidate Jim would run together, and if one wanted to vote for them, they would vote for both of them. Partners may declare their candidacy together, but if a candidate cannot find a partner, they may declare an open candidacy now, and seek to make a political alliance with another lonesome candidate, merging their campaigns before the election takes place.
After the Mayoral Debate, the public vote will be tallied. Thenceforth, we shall hold a ceremony of commission for the newly elected Mayor and his Deputy Mayor, and welcome them to their new office. They will answer to the Chancellor, and will largely be in charge of helping lead the new administrative and municipal reforms, promoting a safer, more prosperous Cyrilsburg. After such leaders are selected, we shall also be seeking out a number of new stewards, and others, to be welcomed into the employ of the Cyrilsburg Municipal Government, as it is an ever growing organization.
[Post your candidate declarations in the Curon forum by the 31st of March. Both deputy mayor and mayor candidates must post their own declaration. Not sure which you want to run for? No need to specify. Just decide by the 31st. Be sure to get a partner, or find one after you declare. As candidates declare, debates will be scheduled between them. Stay tuned.]7 -

“One may only admit when he was wrong, and pray for forgiveness.”
Ser Sylvester to the Court of Renatus-Marna, 14th of The Deep Cold, 1655
Today, the Principality of Curon's leadership has convened to discuss the political climate of our era. Turmoil runs rampant, political calls have beckoned the nations, and damned others into submission. It is thus that we have deliberated for many long days and sleepless nights, praying for the future of humanity and hoping for peace in this life. We have thus reached a conclusion, and moved forward posthaste. We do say this with a heavy heart; for we had initially participated in the Czena Confederation to thwart the once so-called "enemy, " the Crown of Renatus-Marna.
Such was a mistake on our behalf, for we have seen the truth that the Crown of Renatus-Marna explains, offering the Principality of Curon peace, despite our transgressions against them. They have seen peace and prosperity in our just nation – peace and prosperity that must flourish, for the next generation of our kin. We once thought ourselves an iron curtain, an iron curtain that would defend the beaches, the fields, the laymen, and the civilians; but our efforts had become malformed and manipulated. It is, on this new day that the Principality of Curon does disavow the Czena Confederation and its transgressions upon the Northern Atlas Alliance – more specifically, the Crown of Renatus-Marna.
As we are but mortal men, prone to error and sin as God so made us, all we can do is ask forgiveness. Forgiveness that was mercifully accepted by the Crown Prince of Renatus-Marna, in a meeting with Crown Prince Constantine Horen and Grand Marshal Antonius Horen. We cannot brandish our blades against the faithful, nor can we those whom we believe actions are just and due. We relinquish our ties to the Confederation; we relinquish our ties to the Kingdom of Santegia-Haria and the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska,;and we do approve of the Northern Atlas Alliance’s military advance upon the Confederation. I do thus publish this document on behalf of His Serene Highness the Prince of Curon, Alfred I Cyril of House Devereux. We pray that God grants us entrance into a new era, and that this shall serve as the dawn of good relations between Curon and Renatus-Marna.
Signed,
His Excellency the Chancellor of Curon
