Step One: Location

The group has decided via majority vote that this will be in Dorne, on the Broken Arm.

Step Two: Starting Resources

PK will roll 7d6 seven times to determine these:

RESOURCEVALUE
Defense25
Influence23
Lands17
Law29
Population20
Power23
Wealth29

Then we apply the Location modifiers. The updated results are:

RESOURCEVALUE
Defense25
Influence -518
Lands +1027
Law -524
Population20
Power +1033
Wealth29

Initial Modifications: Each player gets to add +1d6 to one area

PK will roll the d6, the player will decide where to put it. Remember that a resource can only be raised twice.

Step Three: House History

After some debate, the group decided on Established for the house age.

PK will roll for Historical Events. # of Events: 2

1. Villain (Influence +6, Law +5, Population +2, Power +3)

2. Infrastructure (Power +1, Wealth +6)

Brett: Anyway my vote is that there was a man -- Cyrus the Tormentor of house Brax -- who seized this place and then impaled hundreds of people outside his gates to keep an invading army at bay. It worked and that man went onto found a house there that would capitalize on the nearby trade routes for both legitimate work and a bit of piracy (hence the wealth and power upgrade).
