    Default The Feudal System

    The feudal system is a simple guideline on how your Medieval career will go.

    Feudal System: Classes

    AAAA AAAAAAKing
    AAAAAAAAAAA |
    AAAAAAAAAAA |
    AAAAAAAAAAA |
    AANoblesAAAAAAAAAAA AAAACardinals
    AA|AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA|
    AA|AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA|
    AA|AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA|
    KnightsAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAClergy
    AA|AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA|
    AA|AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA|
    AA|AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA|
    AA|AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA|
    ------^--------Freedman-------------^---
    Each class has ranks which distinguish a member of the class from others of the same class. The ranks determine which members of the class have priorities over others for certain tasks; for example, a Baron will not be given as much thought to having command if he is opposed by a Lord; a Priest will be given more responsibility to convert the populace of a region then a Deacon.

    KNIGHTS:
    1. Duke
    2. Count
    3. Earl
    4. Lord
    5. Baron

    CLERGY:
    1. Pope
    2. Cardinal
    3. Archbishop
    4. Bishop
    5. Priest
    6. Deacon

    NOBLES:
    1. King
    2. Lord

    FIEFDOMS

    A Fiefdom is land given to a Knight who has sworn homage to the King. In his fiefdom, the Knight may do as he pleases; but if he displeases the King, may be recalled and tried. If his fiefdom includes a Castle, the Knight is requred to recruit men for the Royal Army; if it includes a City, then the Knight must earn a reasonable profit for the King. Knights are very rarely given command of armies - they are only given command of an army if:

    A) The King gives said Knight special permission; or

    B) The Noble in command of the Army requests a special officer.

Though they sweep over our lands like the sands of winter, never again will we bow before them; never again endure their oppression; never again endure their tyranny. We will strike without warning and without mercy, fighting as one hand, one heart, one soul. We will shatter their dreams and haunt their nightmares, drenching our ancestors' graves with their blood. And as our last breath tears at their lungs; as we rise again from the ruins of our cities...they will know: Helghan belongs to the Helghast." -Scholar Visari

    Sometimes both sides are wrong. Unfortunately most people do not understand this and argue endlessly.
