Jump to: navigation, search

The Despot, Rankar the VII, had hoped to keep his city in relative safety from the rest of Creation. This was not to be. Pressure from the Realm to re-establish tributaries, pressure from Paragon in competetion of mining rights, internal pressure from the populace anytime some anethema tears through the area on why we need the Wyld Hunt. He has reached his breaking point, he will have order in his city ... at any cost.

Rankar VII has always been a kind and soft-spoken man, though sometimes distant. He has been awoken to the world around him and knows now that the soft-spoken are rarely ever heard. So he has set out to acquire the regions best mercenaries with the contributions from the House of Iblan and train them with the help of the Circla Family. To assure that they do not cause more damage than prevent, accounts will be established with the House of Sahlak to keep the mercenaries ... sedated. A small line of credit will also be extended from the House Trasti for an alternative recreation. His hopes are that through this network it will strengthen inner-city trade and present Gem as a more unified front to military advances. Not to mention that if inner-city trade is better, outelander merchants may be able to receive better pricing and services.

Rankar VII would be succeeded by his brother Mustaph until his son Rankar VIII would be of age, he is currently 8 years old.
