The Book of Claims

Written by Abbot the Acelet, updated by the Republican Bureau of Local Claims.


This book serves only as a register of personal claims of interest, any citizen, knight or lord of the Republic of Madina are free to officially state there personal claim of interest at the Republican Bureau of Local Claims who in turn are obligated to write your statements in this register. Everything that is stated in this book of registry is officially acknowledged by the Grand Doge and the Grand Council of Madina.

It is requested from the Republican Bureau of Local Claims that the original layout is being kept and that all claims and statements are clearly written with the intention to be readable by all Madinan audience. Claims should be assisted with the following information: Name, Family name, Rank in Hierachy, Statement(if possible) and time of register. All these bits of information will be taken into notice by the Grand Doge in case someone is apointed to any of these regions. In most cases, the date of registry will be the most important aspect in your claim.


OOC Information

  • Everyone who has a character in Madina is free to add or edit his claim and statement to this page as long as the layout and roleplay purpose are kept intact.
  • You can state your characters claim of EVERY region on Dwilight unconditionally of the owner of the region, of course you might wonder if it would have any purpose to claim for example the city of Darfix, however, if your character is a mad man, your free to RP that.
  • Those who are not sure how to edit the table, add your claim here. Someone who knows will add it for you. You can also message Kolya Ishimu ingame (and hope he doesn't miss it). Just remember to make an attempt to address him properly or he might ignore your letter, if it's an IC letter.
  • An entrance here will not guarantee your character will get the region, just as an ingame claim (region details->politics) will not guarantee you the region. It depends on lots of different factors - the relative strength of the ingame claims, the claims made here, honour, prestige, relationship with those who do the appointing, etc. Lack of an ingame claim will almost certainly preclude you from getting a region, unless absolutely no one is interested.
  • The most useful aspect of this page is for those who do the appointing to know who to consider when it comes to appointing. Whilst ICly one would think that everyone will want to rule a region, however that's not always the case. Even though now it's possible to refuse region command, someone might be interested in ruling a region, but not just any old region. Thus, an entrance here makes sure that those who do the appointing know that you are actually interested. Everyone who takes part in a TO generates a claim, but not everyone is interested in that particular region. (Though the constitution does say that we shouldn't take a region without knowing that someone wants to rule it beforehand.)
  • With the advent of the semantic wiki stuff, clicking on the region's link will tell you everything you need to know about the region, (aside from precisely where it is on a big map!) and totally up to date too. I might re-add some rough geographical bits later on, probably not necessary. --fodder 09:57, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

If anyone was to take possession and hold this beautiful and culturally diverse region, it should be someone who has already been welcomed and is beloved of the indigent peoples. For me to not be the Governor of Candiels would be a crime.

Vallyn Rothach

Furthermore my Claim on the Tower borders Candiels so that I may lay claim to all that which is see from the Tower itself, Candiels included. My service to the Realm and Leadership of her Armies is enough to secure Claim to this city.

The substance of this agreement was that the immigrants from Caerwyn would serve in Madina to defeat the rebels in Aurvandil, and Madina would transfer its claim over Candiels Duchy to Caerwyn immigrants in order to refound the realm of Caerwyn. My service to the Realm in bringing the immigrants to Madina and Leadership of the Knights of the Griffon Rising is also enough to secure my Claim to this city. Note also that Vallyn Rotach (Grand Doge of Madina) has the strongest prior claim to Candiels and has voluntarily agreed to transfer it to Caerwyn immigrants.
Candiels Fields Kolya Ishimu

24th May 08

Whilst Madina had always laid claim to the City of Candiels and the surrounding regions, it was not until some time after he stood down as the Governor of Madina City before Kolya decided to lay claim to Candiels Fields himself. Should he stand down as Grand Doge, he would seek guardianship of the western flank of the Republic. It must not fall into foreign hands.

The locals seen the well dressed noble and sought his aid in riding the lands of the rogue rulers and vile beast that had plagued the people for many years.

My service to the Realm in bringing the Caerwyn immigrants to Madina and Leadership of the Knights of the Griffon Rising is also enough to secure my Claim to this region.

I was also a most loyal knight of Lawataling and then its Lord until my vacation to shake off the weariness of monster combat [OOC: Holiday]. In my time as Lawataling's lord I was able to bring it to near perfection in the eyes of the local bureaucrats and increase production greatly, even through continuous monster attacks that plagued the region. My family has a great amount of gold which I can invest into the region to bring it to it's full potential.
Helm Altenahr

5th March 09

Ever since his retirement as Grand Doge, Kolya has set his sights on eventually ruling the Townsland of Candiels Fields to the west of the twin islands. However, should the Republic expand northwards and not westwards, he would seek guardianship of Paisland.
Laithe Songslayer

9th June 09

Laithe Songslayer was among the first of our realm's great Knights to step foot in Paisland in the great movement forth towards Terran. However, since the Terran raid failed to gain support I have been helping to support Paisland and the surrounding regions and in a few cases actually defending her with my own force. For the last 6 months it has been my honour to serve in the area and I feel that my claim to this region is great enough to actually see me get Lordship of this great land.
Roman Harrow

1st April 09

I have led my Knights, my Brothers of the Madina Border Patrol, and those who marched with us in the patriation and subsequent defense of the people of Paisland. I gave those few who eke their living from the soil and dust food, shelter and calm words. In return they did offer up to the Doge their land, nearly free of blood spilt. My name is on their lips, Madina wells in their hearts.
Paisly Nightling Balewind

Dame Nightling often visited the city of Paisly and would espouse the virtues of Madina to its easily swayed populace while enforcing Madina's power in the region.

After some consideration Borealis agreed to become lord of Panabuk.
Daichar Voeder

27th August 11

Having served the Madinian Army with distinction, and after receiving commendation for his service to the great republic, Knight Daichar Voeder of the Duchy of Madina, under Lord Courtmaster Abbot, seemed a fine choice for the landownership of Panabuk. Sir Voeder is also one of the Madinian knights in the army of the Griffon, a joint Caerwynian-Madinian force devoted to the expansion of Madina, and retaking of rebel lands for the gain of the republics. Has also shown great cooperation and camaraderie with Caerwynian forces.
Panafau Langford Mason-Kennit

17th March 08

Former Lord. I was rightfully appointed as the Baron of Panafau, but due to a rash of monsters and unruly peasants, they decided to take control and asked me to leave momentarily, to return and lay claim upon the land, and rule it in the same just and likeable fashion I had before. For me to not be the Baron of Panafau would be a crime.

I claim this region in the name of the Caerwyn immigrants, as agreed with the Grand Doge.

Panamana Draz Solari

15th March 08

Former Lord. Not only did I participate in both of the region's takeovers, I have been both a former Knight and Baron of the region.

Faithful Servant of Madina. Participated in the recent takeover of Panamana. Relentlessly attacked the monsters plaguing the lands of Madina earning great honor and prestige.

Tower Fatmilak Langford Mason-Kennit

11th April 08

Valiant Explorer. I explored this area and met with the locals. They greeted me with gifts and open arms. If anyone was to take possession and hold this beautiful and culturally diverse region, it should be someone who has already been welcomed and is beloved of the indigent peoples. For me to not be the Baron of Fatmilak Tower would be a crime.
Vallyn Rothach

12th April 08

Former Baron of Laraibina, Former Knight of Madina Gardens -- As one of the first amongst the Madina Nobles to command a full compliment of forces I myself commanded the takeovers of Panafau and Laraibina, also I aided the conquering of Panabuk and Lawataling. It was only upon the assurance from His Grace Doge Abbot that I would receive a more prestigious Lordship that I took the title of Baron of Laraibina. Those who seek to dispute my claim to the Tower of Fatmilak can face my blade and spill their blood for the land they seek to rule over -- less they are cowards and unfit to command anything but farmers and sheep.
Merkandur Castillo

24th May 08

Protector, knight Lugagun, then Lord of Panamana. I do not feel the need to speak many words, for my actions speak for themselves. Day and night I have hold court in the devasted region of Panamana showing my distinguished devotion to the realm. When I was a knight of Lugagun, with a group of valiant soldiers, I have booted the monsters out of Tower Fatmilak during a pillaging journey for my liege, Lord Uskarik. I was also known to be as forward in my desire to charge into the monsters plaguing our lands as to help rebuild these lands.
Borealis Neuropa

22th December 08

Once a knight, later a lord of rural region of Panabuk, now a candidate to rule stronghold. Borealis is a noble of few words, his actions and faithfull service speaks for himself. Border land needs a strong and wise leader and such is Borealis. After all his local claim is strongest and he was the one which started very fast and successful friendly takeover of this stronghold.
Auberon Adormidera

26th May 10

Though they hail from the western wilds, Madina's records show that The Adormidera famil was initially allocated a grant in the north of Isle Fatmilak. However their ship was blown astray as they approached Dwilight, and they did not have the provision to both reach the allocated land and establish a viable settlement. As this estate lies within the lands commanded directly by the tower, it stands as a claim on the Governor's seat itself.
Twainville Margel Somra

27th June 08

As stated by the Goddess Estiana, the forest and lands of Twainsville and Rettleville are the holy lands of her religion. Claim is declared in Estiana's name, as High Priest and Prophet of Estiana on the Western Continent. Claim was declared months prior, but offically made it's way through Madina bureaucracy on the 27th of June. This claim was then promptly followed by the surprising claim of Sir Renquest.
Renquest McGahee

27th June 08

Renquest arrived in the city that grew out of the dense forest, at first the honest hard working people were standoffish, but once word had spread that he was from the Noble family of McGahee they were calmed.

They sought hope in his being there, they pleaded with him to deliver them from the rogues that now ruled the city, but Renquest was saddened to tell them that he had no means yet to do this. he urged them to continue on as they had and to do what they needed to to survive, then he comforted them in telling them that he would soon return with more Nobles and many troops to free them from their oppressors. Many took hope in this and bowed to kiss his hand and declare him their Duke.

Renquest then sent his squire back to Madina city to have his claim offically recorded on this the 27th day of June.

Twainwood Margel Somra

27th June 08

As stated by the Goddess Estiana, the forest and lands of Twainsville and Rettleville are the holy lands of her religion. Claim is declared in Estiana's name, as High Priest and Prophet of Estiana on the Western Continent.

While Sleeping one night in his tent, the valiant commander Iodem Ezrin received a vision from a goddess. She told him of her name, Tesla, and that he was to spread word of her faith and travel to Wurzburg, the city where he was to begin this faith. The honorable man, upon this revelation, quickly ran to the library of Madina and laid claim to the region of Wurzburg.
