Duke of Sion
The Duke of Sion is the feudal ruler of Duchy of Sion, and is a direct vassal of the Queen of Swynfaredia.
The title is unisex and passes to the most direct heir with sorcery regardless of whether the heir a sorcerer or sorceress. The current title holder is a sorcerer and therefore a duke, not a duchess.
Responsibilities
Pay ducal duties and obligations. Administer to the basic needs and protections of the denizens of the duchy.
Benefits
On paper the Duke of Sion collects a tithe from his vassals and can call upon their soldiers and banner men in times of need.
In reality his tithes often arrive late and a few bars of silver short and mobilizing his vassal's soldiers is even less reliable.
