Meddlar | Tyrrapedia: Encyclopedia of Tyrra

The Barony of Meddlar is located in the southeastern corner of Elysia. It holds key strategic importance to the duchy, as it borders all four other baronies, as well as the duchies of Niman and Volta ?.

Even though much of the barony is mountainous, Meddlar has been known as the breadbasket of Elysia due to its fertile land. Furthermore, the presence of Ironfist Forge and the location of key roads and waterways make it crucial to trade.

The capital of Meddlar has known many names. Currently Scarletton ?, the town has also been called Drakenhelm and Shadowhurst at various times. Gatherings are often held in this locale.

In recent history, Meddlar bore the brunt of the assault of the necromancer Mish Tal Rae and his undead armies, which put much of the barony to the torch and razed the capital to the ground. The undead presence has been unusually strong in the meantime, although this is presumed to decline after the recent defeat of the infamous Pirate Liche, Viscus Iceheart. Brood and gnolls ? are not unknown, and both the Fair Folke and the mysterious academy of magic known as the Citadel seem to have an affinity for this area.

Leadership:

Lord Darien Turiel, an Earth templar, currently serves as the Baron of Meddlar. Prior to this position, he served as the Lord of Cromley ? and a member of the Woodhaven ? Baronial Council. He began his service of Elysia over 10 years ago as the squire of Sir Kysol Aszeel and has continued as an officer in Elysia’s 19th (Death’s Own) Regiment, a member of the Order, and on the courts of Vindale ?, Northumberland, and Simoondale ?.

Baron Turiel is currently training two squires: Mordock and Jalini.

Squire Mordock, a celestial templar, has served as squire for several years. Prior to his service in Meddlar, Mordock served as the apprentice of the late Vizier and noted celestial scholar Kymri Ramishk. His responsibilities tend to encompass administration and diplomacy.

Squire Jalini, a fighter, has served as a squire for a little over one year. She currently commands all naval forces under the Baronial flag, as well as her personal fleet, with the rank of Captain and the post of Commodore. She is known for her courage and remarkable force of presence.

Meddlar’s former barons include Alora van Dier, Kyrian Drakemoor, and His Grace, Kinnel Kohlmyn.

Laws:

In addition to the standard Avalon, Evendarr, and Elysian laws, Baron Turiel often declares the following before gatherings:

As follows Elysian custom, all nobles of our fair land of Elysia are requested to present themselves to Baron Turiel if they are in attendance.
As follows Elysian law, all other nobles are requested and required to present themselves to Baron Turiel as soon as possible if they are in attendance.
As follows Elysian law, the Baron prefers to reserve the right of justice in Meddlar. Should the situation mandate it, nobles in Elysia may render judgment, but, should it be at all possible, inform the Baron as soon as expedient. Note that this includes the oversight of proper honor combat.
Non-Elysian nobles are granted the privilege of arrest only, and are directed to inform the Baron immediately of any situation. This privilege may only be exercised after one has properly presented themselves and has been acknowledged.
Be it known that both of Meddlar’s squires are vested with the powers of the offices of Sheriff and Magistrate throughout Meddlar. All are requested and required to grant them assistance as they carry out the Baron's will.
Baron Turiel reserves the right of high judgment in all cases.
