Wulfwald - Encounters by Kingdom - PT 6 Middle Angland

 

Middle Angland

Roll 2d6 . . .

2 - A Wicce sent by Beornheard of Eastlund Seaxe to bewitch Queen Gisa.

3 -  Several suitors (1d6+2) sent on a fool’s errand by Queen Gisa. She has sent them to pick an Elfin Rose, a flower that doesn’t exist, claiming she will marry whichever of them can bring her one. The Suitors are young and enthusiastic (and very naive) nobles from various kingdoms and would owe favours to anyone who helped in their quest.

4 - A lone Hýransweord in the employ of Queen Gisa. He is travelling the kingdom and picking fights with foreign nobles in a bid to thin out the suitors. If any of the party has a noble background he will try to pick a fight with them.

5 - A decrepit Gesith well into his eighth decade and desperately in love with Queen Gisa. He is seeking protection from a Hýransweord he claims is trying to murder him.

6 - An arrogant Aetheling from Sufland Seaxe who claims to hold the secret to Gisa’s heart. He has many enemies.

7 - A seemingly demure, but ruthless Aetheling from Westlund Seaxe ( a cousin of King Cyneric) travelling the kingdom and winning over the common people of Angland before he makes a play for Gisa. Will have his uncle's men murder anyone who gets in his way.

8 - An overworked spy in the employ of Queen Gisa. He is supposed to be keeping an eye on the machinations of the suitors. At this stage, there are far too many of them and he is desperate for help.

9 - A Warband (2d6 Fyrdmen, 1d6+1 Sperebrógan, led by 2 Drengas brothers) they are disguised as wildlings and set on raiding farmland. Very undisciplined.

10 - A priestess of Eostre travelling the kingdom encouraging the suitors to greater efforts in their attempts to woo Queen Gisa. She is, in fact, Gisa’s cousin and is encouraging the suitors in ever-increasing stupidity in their efforts.

11 - Queen Gisa’s Warband (2d6) Fyrdmen, (1d3+1) Thegns, an Ealdorman, and a Gesith. Patrolling the borders and looking for anyone shady who might be interested in working against the suitors.

12 - Queen Gisa’s Fricca travelling the Kingdom and making false pronouncements in order to confound and confuse the suitors.
