Vanguard3000 Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 Prime Magistrate BeakkalWhere is this from? Also, where does it say the Novebruns had a Lord?Richese (the planet) had a Premier. I guess he would have been like a Prime Minister compared to a king (the Count).Keep in mind that not all titles are mentioned in Dune.For a list of houses (which has titles) go here:http://community.the-underdogs.org/smiley/deo/houses.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanguard3000 Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 Sorry about the bogus link. Go here instead: http://community.the-underdogs.org/smiley/houses.htm .Nema: Add Viceroy to your list. As the name implies, the viceroy acts as a "deputy" king. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlteaDeo Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 cool!hum, those list of noblity Titles.... are they doing specials thigns each of them? I mean, like you've said, viceroy act as deputy of the king... do the baron have something to do.... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 I thought the Viceroy was not actually a feudal title in that it did not carry governorship of land (any viceroy with land would be a noble with a job in the 'civil service')Anyway, a Duke/archduke is a relative of the king/queen. The Earls were originally the Norman Nobles, allowed to govern over the old English Barons. All of these posts swore fealty to the King/Emperor, and could be required to fight or raise (and command)) an army to serve the King.

Vanguard3000 Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 Hmmm... I suppose you're right. It's more of a rank, like a Prince/Princess.Anyway, include "Thane" as another term for "Baron". If I recall correctly, a Thane was a scottish Baron (i.e. MacBeth being Thane of Glamis and Cawdor). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlteaDeo Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 that'll all be useful with WebDune's need for noblity titles :P thansk :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahdi Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 I thought a than was a Scottish Duke, not a Baron? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlteaDeo Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 ................. hum........ :-X :- ??? :O ;D :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard3000 Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 Nope. I just looked it up now to confirm, and a Thane is a Scottish Baron. Although originally, a thane was more like a vassal.[edit] Also, an Earl is simply the Scottish name for a Count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
