    The representative is brought before the Castellan of Bronzegate who is in charge of managing trade for Lord Buckler.

    The Manderly envoy is escorted before Lord Stonehelm who says "You may speak emissary. What is a man from the North doing here at Stonehelm?"

    Stannis sent me to open trade between Storm's End and the Bronze Gate. Granted both our main exports are armor but it is my belief that production could be greatly increased if we were to pool resources and share different techniques regarding the production of said armors. Not to mention opening our markets to one another would lead to other benefits from export and import fees that your lordship charges.

    I have come as a representative of White Harbor, seeking trade with the largest trading port in the Stormlands. Lord Manderly is seeking to outfit the largest force of Knight north of the Neck with the finest armor in all the Seven Kingdoms, it would be cost effective if he could buy directly from the Stormlands in exchange for Manderly furs and silver(OOC fur resource). Of course both Stonehelm and White Harbor stand to make a hefty sum off import and export fees as well, my lord.

    Trade Acceptance Roll:

    Basic Roll: 10/20
    Modifiers: +10 from being sworn to the LP,
    Final Roll: 20/20

    Rolled a 6, the Castellan of Lord Buckler will accept the trade.


    ==================================

    "Tell Lord Stannis that it will be my pleasure to set up a trade route with Storm's End. It is better for two Lrods of the Stormlands to profit over our wonderful armor than men from other realms." said the Castellan.

    Rolled a 9, Lord Swann is willing to accept the trade offer.


    =============================

    'Tell your Lord that I am willing to trade with him but only because we fought on the same side during the rebellion." said Lord Swann. "As soon as the first shipments of your furs arrive in Stonehelm, I shall send my armors to you."

    She is allowed to dock at Fair Isle and she is escorted into the Farman's Keep to speak with the Lord himself. "My lady Redwyne, what can I do for you today?"

    Rohanne looks around the keep as she is led in, mentally comparing it to her own, then bows to Lord Farman. "I have come to offer trade with your island, as both our islands have a history with the Ironborn and reasons to detest them and their ways. The money made from this agreement and the additional food and wine may allow your lordship to field more men to defend your island from the heathens should they dare to step foot on Fair Isle again."


    ooc : I think I get +2 from the double fruits resource?

    ooc : I think I get +2 from the double fruits resource?
    OOC: Correct.

    Trade Acceptance Roll:

    Basic Roll: 10/20
    Modifiers: +2 trade resource, +2 for compelling argument about Ironborn
    Final Roll: 14/20

    Rolled an 8, Lord Farman agrees to the trade agreement.


    =============================

    After a few moments of consideration, Lord Farman replies "You make a compelling offer Lady Redwyne and it would be foolish of me to reject your offer. More fruit and wine as well as the additional money would always benefit Fair isle."

    An envoy from Sharp Point comes before Lord Vance of Atranta.

    "My Lord, I come before you with a proposal of trade from Sharp Point," he said, "We export many fragrances, perfumes and scented fruits, oils and soaps from the peninsula, but find it difficult to grow grain in the rocky soil. We would greatly wish to initiate a trade between our Houses to better feed our peoples, but also to benefit you: the products we offer are valuable and will give you great revenue, as well as giving you great pleasure through their use. Visitors to your home will marvel at the buffet of enticing scents you are able to offer."

    * * *

    At the same time another envoy reaches the Stormlands, the seat of House Hasty of Lockport.

    "My Lord, I come with proposals for trade," said the envoy, "The Crownlands understands Lockport suffered during the war, from the nearby Dornish armies that invaded the fair land. In exchange for surpluses of your fine armours wrought during the war to equip armies that have now returned home, we would offer fine oils, scents and perfumes, that might serve to boost the morale of your people and attract traders and visitors after word spreads of the exotic goods available at Lockport. My Lord knows from experience that visitors are often eager to experience the many aromas available and often purchase their favourites: we have found it to be excellent for revenues in a rocky land where agriculture and farming is not easily accomplished."

    [Perfumes give +2 to rolls.]

    OOC: I can only do one of the trade lanes Poach because of the one NPC trade lane limit. Choose the resource that you would prefer more and the roll will apply to that.

    Trade Acceptance Roll:

    Basic Roll: 10/20
    Modifiers: +2 from perfumes.
    Final Roll: 12/20 roll.


    Rolled a 10, the Lord will accept your trade offer.

    Can't do any RP reply because I don't know which House that will be.

    OOC: Now I'm going to use this myself to secure a gold trade lane.

    On an unusually mild summer's day, an emissary of House Hightower, Greysteel, the heir of Lord Hightower, appears at the court of Lord Crakehall. "My Lord Crakehall, I have come to you to offer a trade agreement between our two Houses. My family you the best Fruits of the Reach from the most fertile lands of the Reach, whether they be in the actual form of fruit that you can eat directly or in the form of wine produced from these magnificent fruits. All we wish for in exchange is a little gold from your world famous mines Lord Crakehall. What do you say Lord Crakehall?"

    +2 Charisma from Double Fruit Lanes. Also, +1 charisma from the emissary, Ser Godric Hightower.

    Trade Acceptance Roll:


    Basic Roll: 10/20
    Modifiers: +3 Charisma in total
    Final Roll: 13/20 roll. (1 - 7: won't accept; 8 - 20: accept)

    Rolled a 9, barely accepted. Yet the Lord of Crakehall decides to accept the trade offer by House Hightower.
