Overview

The motion to construct Kauppahall was raised by Hengest Dun, Senator for Hahnmark, during the Winter Solstice 383YE, taking advantage of an opportunity presented that season. Construction was completed shortly before the Spring Equinox 384YE but election of the title was stalled due to issues raised by the Constitutional Court. The Imperial Senate voted to amend the position and the first Talon of Kauppahall was elected at the same summit.

Responsibilities

The Talon of Kauppahall is responsible for ensuring the safety of the Kauppahall. If it were to be threatened in any way, it would be the responsibility of the Talon to deal with those threats. Likewise, if any particular opportunity were to arise related to the Kauppahall, the Talon would expect to be consulted as to how that opportunity might be resolved.

As a ministry, the Talon can purchase quantities of white granite and ilium at a set price. The Talon spends their money and makes their choices during downtime from their character page. Money is removed from, and resources are placed into, the character's inventory when the downtime is processed.

Appointment

This title is appointed during the Spring Equinox each year. The Talon of Kauppahall is appointed, through the Tally of the Votes, by citizens of Wintermark who control military units. The larger the resource an individual has, the more votes they can allocate in support to a candidate. The voting is handled by the civil servants in the Bourse.

Only a Wintermark citizen may hold the title. They do not receive a seat on the Bourse. As a title appointed through the Bourse they cannot be revoked by the Imperial Synod.

Recent Elections

This title is currently held by Eerikki Korpi; it will be reelected at Spring Equinox 387YE. The table to the right shows the citizens who have been elected to hold this title in the years since Empress Britta died.

The Title in Play

The role does not provide additional information about events in the Empire, nor allow the player holding it to request special reports or downtime actions. These details are assumed to be below the abstraction layer. The title holder is encouraged to create their own stories about their activities within reasonable limits and to get involved in events appropriate to their title during the game, but they do not have any powers beyond those explicitly listed in the section on powers.

These details exist partly to provide context and character to the role - and partly to allow our writers to use the title as a plot hook. Plot that involves the position will be rare - but all the campaign positions in Empire have these details to create the potential for it to happen.
