SOC-12
I am sure that many of us here on the board can remember the ol' Imperial Warrant. Quite a powerful little tool.
Here is a thought for a feat, (Tho' quite powerful) Perhaps it could be fleshed out into a prestige class for nobles.
Warrant Holder. This entitles the character to dragoon forces and facilities under the command of the issuing authority at will, but subject to review and recall at any time.
Character must be at least SOC 18 and have never failed a survival roll with a result on the subsequent D6 higher than 2.
Character must also be at LEAST 40 years of age (I figure that the issuing authority does not hand these out to any but the most proven of characters) No snot nosed wet behind the ears kids need apply.
I know lots to do here and much room for improvement. Really the idea seems more like it would be great to use for NPC’s. It could also be treated like a ship. Don’t keep up the "payments", in the sense of working to put out fires and solve problems in your neck of the woods and some nice men in long black coats come to "escort" you back to the issuing authority for some "gentle questioning."
I do realize that any noble holding an Imperial Patent of Nobility is EXPECTED to do his/her best to uphold the traditions, do their duty, make the ultimate sacrifice, etc. etc. But, this is just an Idea.
Please give me your feed back (like I really need to ask!)
