Guardian of Dunfrith

Dunfrith was commissioned by the Civilian Commissioner of Wintermark in Autumn 380YE. The position of Guardian of Dunfrith is a sinecure, requiring minimal responsibility but offering a regular income of herbs. The position is a Wintermark national Imperial title.

Responsibilities

The Guardian of Dunfrith has no particular responsibilities; they simply receive a bounty of herbs from Dunfrith in Wood Heath, Hahnmark. If Dunfrith were to be threatened in any way, it would be the responsibility of the Guardian to deal with those threats.

Powers

The Guardian of Dunfrith is an Imperial title that grants custodianship of a sinecure.

Bounty of the Guardian

The Guardian receives an income of herbs each season: TBC doses of Bladeroot, TBC doses of True Vervain, TBC doses each of Imperial Roseweald and Marrowort, and TBC doses of Cerulean Mazzarine. Bladeroot and True Vervain prosper in the northern hills, but the gardeners struggle to maintain more than a few patches of Cerulean Mazzarine.

Selection

The Guardian of Dunfrith is a Wintermark national position appointed by the Senate. Under normal circumstances it will be appointed by unanimous vote of the Wintermark senators.

Because this is a national position, the title can only be held by a citizen of Wintermark.

Removal

The Guardian of Dunfrith has tenure and serves until they die, step down or are revoked.

The title can be revoked by the Wintermark national assembly, the General assembly or the Assembly of Nine.

History

Construction of Dunfrith was completed shortly after the 380YE Autumn Equinox. The title is due to be elected for the first time at the Winter Solstice 380YE.
