The Rift With many of the Rifts resources being spread among its territories, it was time to expand its trade outside of Skyrim. Builder will be sent to Chim and Cheydinhal to construct the promised merchant halls, both expected to be finished by the end of the year. With the new trebuchets built, it was time to have them brought to Riften and get a proper trained team to operate them. On top of this more soldiers would be needed to protect the Rift and her peoples, 8,000 Heavy infantry would be trained and placed with the rest of the men. With his victory in traditional combat against jarl Yngolf, Carsten inheirets Whiterun, naming Yngolfs son Thane of the city.

The Rift With the new year still being fresh, the young Jarl looks to act on the deals made with Chim, a grant is to be given to the at the price of 6,000 gold. On Top of this a merchant hub is to be built in Riften this year, and one in chim the next. Hoping to expand Riften grasp on trade in the north of Tamriel. An agreement is made with Chim to have their engineers build trebuchets for Riten, this will only project the holds power further, hopefully projecting the Rifts military prowess further. With the arrival of the Argonians in Riften, a counter offer is made. Now the lizardmen would bring experienced restoration mages to train the Nords in the temple of Mara. And with their apparent weaknesses the Rifts Army will march into Oreleth to claim the rest of their lands before any other nation could, if contact is made with another's army they would be given the option to leave, or face Riftens forces.

The Rift With his return, Carsten would again be faced with the Rifts economical issues. The Fisheries have received funding for expansion, seeing as it can only go well another grant of 5,000 would be granted. On top of this homes would be needed for the workers, 10,000 should cover Riftens expansion. With the apparent danger the Rifts safety, Carsten would seek the guidance from his gods, taking a month and a half to journey to the top of the Throat of the world on a pilgrimage. His wife, Faide Law-Giver would join him. Once again trusting Skegglund with the city, though this time only for a month. With the Rifts army built strong, these men would need training to stay in shape in case any invader, be it the long nosed bastards to the south, or the darkie pigs to the east try their luck. 5,000 is spent on training, Carstens huscarls would teach those deemed most capable to train the army.

The Rift In the absence of young Carsten, Skegglund would oversee most business in the Rift. With the Holds bountiful resources it was far past time to start putting the many goods of the Rift on the market, and so riders were sent with offers to the nearby Holds and Duchies. Leaving the city with some gold, a horse, weapons and basic tools for life on the road. The young Jarl would travel around the Rift, speaking to its people taking any job within reason. Be it from Highwaymen, Wolves or any other nuisance that plagues his Hold. Carsten improving his martial prowess slowly throughout the year would be making a small name of himself. With the cities guard practically in ruin, it was time to rebuild the defense of the Riften, Soldiers would be recruited trained and sent on their duties throughout the city. Stomping out crime where ever it came up, and considering it's the thieves capital of Skyrim, there was always stomping needing doing.

The holding you wish to play: The Jarldom of the Rift Leader name and background: Carsten Law-Giver was the heir to the Mistveil Throne, his father's final wish being that the young Nord (16 YO) makes a name for himself before he leads. There being no time to mourn the lad left Riften shortly after his father's ceremony, equipped only with his sword and shield Carsten would seek glory and prestige. Until his return his father's court wizard and trusted friend, Skegglund would oversee the cities activities. Carsten on the other hand would travel around the Rift seeking to better the lands he will one day lead. The city of Riften, being the thieves capital of Skyrim has its issues. Other then this the hold is in a relatively stable condition. Skype Name: You already got it B

Clan Skryre Application Nation: Clan Skryre Leader name: Skran Warpchewer For years the old ruins in the swamp that rests on the border between Estalia and Tilea has remained calm and quiet. But as of recent faint green lighting can be spotted in the towers, and the uneasy feeling of perverted eyes spying on you from the dark. But surely these are just rumors, the city has been nothing but a pile of rocks and decrepit towers. The plague should have killed any bandit not protected by the safe quarantines of a city. But still rumors from passing by merchants and travelers come spreading word of seeing ratmen in the surrounding wilds. But surely these are the words of a paranoid man scared of his own shadow, or perhaps at most a beastmen savage who managed to escape the diseases grasp. There is no use putting the fair citizens at unease over a children's bedtime tale. Beneath a colossal tower that pierces the skys, the Rat-like men plot their return. With their once uncountable numbers being reduced to a mere fraction, the surviving skaven within the burrows collect under one Banner. Clan Skryre, once a Great Clan of the Under-Empire is now no more then the surviving Ratmen of Skavenblight. The Skaven a cunning jealous race there is no shortage of back-stabbing and murder. But now a powerful Warlord has risen up to lead his deceitful brothers. A Warlock Engineer by the name of Skran Warpchewer, a average sized Skaven who has devotes most of his time keeping what little machines the ratmen still possess. Has risen to power within the Clan and assumed his rightful place as Clanlord of Skryre. His fellow clanrats either loyal or to scared to oppose him, it’s time to rebuild Skryre to it’s once great power. Luckily the breeding pits still retain enough “ladies” to sustain the Skaven for now. Before taking the throne to Skryre, the Warplock Engineer now Clanlord was a relatively quiet Skaven. Calculated when he saw an opportunity for action. With the previous Warlord spending most of his time either hiding in his chambers from rivals or laying claim on the Breeders, his reputation within Skavenblight was worth less then Slave-Dung. Most of the clanrats plotted behind his back and those who didn't were to dull too join the masses led by none other than Skran who jerry-rigged some old Doom-Wheels to crush any still loyal to the coward. Needless to say with the ratmen numbers mean everything. “Listen to clever Skran or kill-murder and feed you to clan, time for grow-breed is now. The Breeders are few, but we will need more-more clanrats to expand mighty Skryre.” -Clanlord Skran shortly after his coup succeeded and he killed the previous lord of Skryre.
