I intend to run a political intrigue type of campaign in Melvaunt and would need a little more info on how the city state actually functions. Is there any judicial branch at all? Or does one of the lords function as a judge? If there is some kind of a judge are there lawyers of any type? I'm guessing the common man doesn't actually get a real chance for a trial but what about noblemen/merchants? Also there are obviously three distinguished offices Lord Chancellor, Lord of Keys and Lord of the Waves held by Leiyraghon's, Bruils and a chap called Nurian (in order). Any clue who the last guy is allied with if anyone? Also am I right in assuming that the Lord Chancellor is in some way related to the treasury? Also is it reasonable to assume that the three ruling families will be fairly homogenous alignmentwise? (i.e. Leiyraghon's good, Nanthers neutral and Bruil's evil) Or is this an oversimplification? Thanks in advance for any ideas/knowledge, Rawel

Rawel 01-27-08, 01:46 PM	Thank you for all the replies. I can't seem to be able to find melvaunt on candlekeep but that's probbably just because I haven't yet found out where to look. I got my hands on the 2ed Moonsea and there is a little there. Looking forward to checking sons of Gruumsh later. Any idea of a real political intrigue like adventure out there? I'm thinking very little fighting mostly talking and playing with information. Thanks again.:) Rawel
