Royal patron is a royal peer who acts as an advisor to a shire, college, or other branch that does not have direct access to the Landed Nobility or Crown.
The relationship between a branch and the Royal Patron is at the pleasure of the branch, the Royal Patron, and with the consent of the Crown. Royal Patrons are in direct fealty to the Crown.
A Royal Patron may:
- Royal Patrons may request permission from the Crown to hold court. Permission shall be given on a case by case basis.
- Raise war bands.
- Receive branch officer reports.
- Report to the Crown and Heirs on the state of their group.
- Act as an advocate for their group.
- Represent the branch at Noble Estate Meetings.
- Distribute awards as designated by the Crown.
The Royal Patronage was created by Dux Darius Corvinus during either his 1st or 2nd reign. This description is based on An Tir Kingdom Law as of Dec 2005.
