It Began in a Tavern (OOC Thread) (Part 2)

I'm good with those changes! Though it begs the question on if Silas Cromwell should be called a "prince" like he is now instead of like a duke.

Also, I realize that I may have messed up the geography by misunderstanding what a peninsula is. I thought that a peninsula was land surrounded by water, but larger than an island. But a peninsula is supposed to be a piece of land that is surrounded by the ocean and still connects to the land.

Hahahahah.

Look at the ground: Crete is an island. Look out your window: Italy is a peninsula. I know you can't see Italy from your window, but you live in the land of peninsulas, islands, and isthmuses, bruh!

I'm honestly not sure what the difference between a Duke and a Prince is.

Silas Cromwell was initially meant to be from the Northern Continent (I said peninsula because of misunderstandings). However, I am fine if you want him to be a local ruler in Cliffcross or a prince from another continent. We agreed that Brother Silas and Silas Cromwell are the same person, but Brother Silas has probably significantly changed as a person. He was a ruler essentially turned into leader of monks, which probably requires significant character transformation.

You can therefore do whatever you want with Silas Cromwell as long as it isn't anything crazy. Whether he is a prince or Duke is completely up to you honestly. You came up with the idea so its only right you get to build some background to his Cromwell self. If you want, I can also edit some details into my post. If, for example, you want to make him into a king, I'll happily edit that into the post since I have to make a bunch of edits anyway thanks to my idiocy!

You can also go ahead and even make a character sheet if you so wish, but it should mention that he later joined the monks and became their leader as Brother Silas, which should link to Louanne's sheet. That is a bit strange for us but it would give enough credit and seperation so you can work on his Cromwell self without making alternations to his Brother-monk self (beyond the ones already agreed obviously).

A duke rules over a duchy while a prince rules over a principality, though I believe a prince ranks higher on the royalty ladder while a duke is more of an aristocrat?

You probably know more on these subjects than I do. The beauty behind collaborative storytelling like this is that you have multiple minds to contribute knowledge, experience and voice!

Also, sorry if my communication has been kind of muddy in terms of clarity today. I've been pretty ill for the past two days. Besides everything else, I have pretty bad mind fog. Let me know if something I said doesn't quite make sense.
