Dhomiro of the Cinnabar Hills
Overview
The Dhomiro of the Cinnabar Hills is an Imperial title awarded to a Freeborn citizen. It is a national position appointed through the Bourse.
The Dhomiro of the Cinnabar Hills serves as an arbitrator and mediator charged with keeping peace between the often volatile families of Kahraman. In the process, the Dhomiro encounters plenty of opportunities to trade for orichalcum from the mines of Damata; tempest jade from the quarries of the Jade Range. and beggar's lye gathered from the beggarwood forests above Gambit.
Some Dhomiro take their title very seriously, and spend their spare months actively travelling through Kahraman looking for opportunities to improve the lot of the Freeborn who live there. Others leave the job to agents - reaping the rewards of their position by proxy.
Responsibilities
There is a tacit expectation that the Dhomiro of the Cinnabar Hills will help ensure the economic stability of Kahraman - and where possible help increase the prosperity of the mine owners and artisans that make the hills their home. In practice, they are rarely called on to intervene directly but it is not unknown for inhabitants of Kahraman having purely economic problems to bring them to the Dhomiro before they bother a senator with them - even where the title holder is not themselves a Kahraman native it is assumed they have sufficient self-interest to remain concerned about the general economic welfare of the hill dwellers.
On occasion, the Dhomiro may be asked to help out with problems concerning the Great Mine of Briante or the Damation Cliffs, especially where those problems have arisen from conflict between the Freeborn and the individual who holds the Imperial Bourse seat. Some politically astute Dhomiro of the Cinnabar Hills have invested the wealth they accrue from their title towards placing trusted family members in control of those valuable seats on the Imperial Bourse.
