The Tartan Terrors

The Baroness Steindorf headed to greet the camp amassing in her holdings, and provided levies from the mines and smithies alongside supplementary armaments to the under-equipped peasants sourced from the King's farms. After a hearty conversation with the camp's commander, she left bounties for one-hundred and fifty gold (alive) or fifty gold (dead) for a number of parliamentarian highlanders whom had taken to a life of banditry within the desolate mountain range, with ten gold for information leading to an arrest.

Which is a Witch?

A coven of three crones have been rounded up after rumoured to be practicing illegal magicks in Taverly's forests, including but not limited to summoning otherworldly beasts and sacrificing livestock. It's up to a jury comprised of a number of Burthorpe's citizens to determine whether their rituals were of druidic tradition or occult practices.

The Red Stripe Trading and Logistics Company

The Red Stripe Trading Company was formed by Bartholomew Bronson with investments from controversial figures such as Sire William Skeat and Jekyll Vortivask, alongside his own funds. Initially based in Ashdale's Kharazi colonies following the coup d'etat upon the previous governor, Sir Angus McPherson, the company siezed a small portion of the Dominion's tobacco plantations and, once the first crews were formed, established itself across Kandarin, Southern Misthalin and the Wushanko Isles.

Since that time, company Directors have expanded a small merchant fleet into an overwhelming conglomerate of the mining, fishing, shipping, production and general trading industries. Spread across many nations, the Red Stripe has now established a public office and trade alliance within the Kingdom of Burthorpe, headed by Director Owain de Beaujeu.

With eyes on not only the company held mines within the Kingdom, but also the rich untapped resources in northern troll territory, the Company has raised a private force of Men-At-Arms to aid in this venture as well as protecting the company’s interest abroad.

Similarly, the Company offers the service of the small number of war-ships in local waters to aid in anti-piracy activities whilst not otherwise occupied on convoy or transportation duties.

Well established in Burthorpe, it is no strange sight to see Company men-at-arms aiding in military exercises, nor is it uncommon for a Director to be present during a Royal Court.

Baldwin I, by the Grace of Saradomin, King of the Anglia and Sovereign Prince of Burthorpe, extends his greetings to the Asgarnian Nation.

The most noble House Grey have always borne the most constant affection for the ancient Kingdom of Asgarnia, where it's progenitors have swayed the sceptre with glory through a longer succession of kings that very few on Gielinor can boast of. His Majesty cannot but behold the deepest concern for the miseries of the Asgarnian Nation, which has been unjustly estranged from its rightful and lawful monarchs.

His Majesty sees a nation, famed for its valour and esteem, degenerated into nothing more than a fiefdom, under the dominion of soulless potentates who do not truly regard the citizenry to be their friends and countrymen. In consequence of this, the land is subject to poor governance, where the rule of law is mocked and spat upon, by the very men who swore to uphold its tenets. It is known by all true Asgarnians that Divine Providence has raised up a son of House Grey, to save the nation from peril.

His Majesty, King Baldwin, hereby lays claim upon the Kingdom of Asgarnia. With the blood of Varis I and St. Edward the Vyrebane coursing through his veins, the throne is his right and his right alone, as commanded by our Lord, Saradomin.

Bound by service to his God, Country and People, His Majesty promises to protect and secure the liberties of his nation and its citizenry, which has long been overlooked in the absence of effective and just governance. His Majesty extends this promise to the rights and powers of his vassals who welcome their King with open arms. Those who persist in the mistreatment of His Majesty's subjects shall, by the laws of the land, be held to account and tried by the King's Justice.

Having thus declared his gracious intentions to his loving subjects, His Majesty calls upon them to be patient and remain hopeful. If it is to be so, Divine Providence shall deliver Asgarnia's rightful and lawful king to his throne.

Baldwin I, by the Grace of Saradomin, King of Anglia and Sovereign Prince of Burthorpe awaits the destined day, where he shall take up his place as rightful King of Asgarnia

Declared at the court in Burthorpe - 1st of Septober, Year 5, Sixth Age.

From today's event. A bit of the spicy IC drama.

Do not be expecting Burthorpe troops to be marching into Falador or anything for a very long time or ever depending on actions and choices.

And a massive thank you for everyone showing up today for the event!

Character Name: Titus Blackstone
Race: Human
Religious Views: Strictly Zamorakian, though he does not stress this to the public.
Occupation: Colonel in the Kinshra, Captain of a mercenary company, businessman.
Appearance: Very tall, stocky/muscular. Titus has a braided black beard, and a bald head. He's aged roughly thus far, scars and stress marks adorning his battle hardened visage.
Personality: Titus is a very imposing, serious individual with a tendency to lose his temper. However, he is loyal, and would go through great lengths to further the goals of his superiors. He is religious, and worships zamorak loyally.
Biography: Titus grew up in a rather rough state, living a humble life in a humble home. He quite frequently was subject to physical abuse from both his father and at first other children around him until at the age of eight he physically confronted them, and won. As he grew into a young man he acquired a flaming temper, getting into fights very often, most of which he won due to the long hours spent reading and practicing on various techniques. Eventually, at the age of fourteen he saved money earned working in the coal mines and sawmills and farms around him, and decided to make his first significant purchase a steel sword. Later that night he would return home and find that his father, in a fit of drunken anger, had murdered his mother and younger brother, Titus used his sword to end his father's life before burning his childhood home to the ground, never to return. He left town and sought work where he could find it. One particular job was not as it seemed, and he was kidnapped by his supposed employer, only to find out he was now in the hands of the Kinshra. From there, years of conditioning, brutal punishment and hard labor would turn him into an entirely new person, a person the kinshra wanted. They put him in as a squire, where he rose through the ranks (Continued)

(cont) and became a knight, showing brilliant promise as a tactician and a soldier. Many years passed and many ranks, medals and honors were awarded. Notable campaigns taken part in were the Razing of Rimmington and Sarim,the Seige of Falador, multiple crusades through the north, many assaults on smaller keeps led by himself, and dozens more. Titus recently revolted from the main sect of the kinshra with a large number of his trusted comrades at arms, due to a divide in beleifs. Titus has begun investing money earned from his high ranking into merchant companies, making good returns and getting wealthy. He would use this wealth to continue his desire for power. (Will add to this)
