[OL TC2B] the Investiture of Giefaux

[Ross Fisher]

André Giefaux, fifth son of the Margrave of Hernsey, on the occasion of his enlistment as a Cornet of Dragoons. 9 August 624.

During peacetime this position would, naturally, have allowed him to draw half pay, while the uniform gave him privileged access.

He does not appear to have stayed with his regiment for very long, beyond demonstrating the skills required to complete intial training. 

Having joined the service, he quickly slipped beyond its reach and ventured off on the Brick Seas once more.

The vessel with the flame looks great! André Giefaux is an interesting new character. But I hope Bishop François doesn't disappear. It was very interesting to have a character from the Order of the Faith in the game.

My attempt at an ancient Greek tripod. Not the best, but it does the job.

I'll echo NOD: interesting new character. I, too, will miss the Bishop. Such an iconic character and some neat world building surrounding him. However, I can imagine his story was starting to run out and it's always nice to start fresh!

It's a cool scene: not too complex, focussing on the essence. Like NOD said, the tripods are well-built. And obviously I'm partial to Oléonder Dragoons.

The biggest issue was that I wanted to have a big contest with Calida for who would be leader of the Faith, but I don't think Oleon's leadership were keen on the idea. Plus he was getting up there in age terms, and I wanted a younger character with more freedom to behave badly. More opportunities...
