Noble for me.
The third estate has severely limited representation. The first none at all.
It seems the second has overtaken the entire polity.

Never mind the knight instead we should kill the over populated nobles
King/Joker hmmmm..
No clerics? This is winding up to be a pretty illiterate society.
Well, instead of acting like barbarians and kill the surplus of kings we have, we could act in an enlightened manner and send them all to reflect upon their worldly sins in some convent/monastery... ~DQuote:

Truth be told, if I was suddenly time-ported into the Middle Ages, I could make a pretty darn good living just on my basic education... and not the least merit being full literacy.
Are you sure? I imagine that you would have a rather hard time understanding medieval Suomi, Swedish or English ~;)Quote:

As for the language barrier, meh. Total immersion teaches languages but fast (and I'm at least aquainted with the basic structure of the main relevant ones), and most societies had decent enough customs of hospitality to put up with strange foreigners gabbing odd lingo and looking very confused. This was an age long before concerted attempts to standardize national languages after all, and all manner of journeymen, traders and other travelers were common.
Put this way: if I survived the first year or so, the Industrial Revolution would happen way earlier than it did. Knowing the basics of gunpowder and how it can be put to practical use effectively would alone be enough to make me worth my weight in gold to any ruler... :beam:
King
NIiiiiice...you got the king. you may be a bit....overfed and selfish, but it doesnt really matter, you own all the lands and the only thing stopping you is people trying to kill you! However, dont worry about that, you got strong knights at your side =)
My ansestors are desceded from a single translator who established his line as a line of nobility in Jolly Ole Englande. So with the family ties already there I would assume a role of nobility just a bit out of the lime light. Although I'd make an excellent advisor to the king. I think my stratagies would mostly involve allying with the Russians and invading Denmark, Poland, Germany, and France. All while trading longbowmen for Slavic cavalry for my personal army...
That is just so weird...:help:Quote:

Alright something went wrong here... It must be my muscles and the desire to charge when confronted by invaders.
I am up for hire though... toughest knight alive. It takes lots of gold to capture my interest.
I'm one of the richer peasants and need someone to keep those feudal lords at a distance. You can also loot as much as you want once the peasant revolt has started.:2thumbsup:Quote:

ravage and pillage are strong arguments to win me over. You have yourself a knight.Quote:

An eccentric english noble. :laugh4:
If anyone needs a clergyman to absolve them from any and all sins, I'm your man !
Militia
Militia, militia, militia. You are a great help to the kingdom you lived in. Militia members were volunentary members of the kingdom who helped defend their village when it was under siege. You have a great hard and have courage of steel.
King apparently, though I didn't think that was actually a job.
Joining in the Militia crew. I would like to commemorate this illustrious eve by taking over, poking Omanes in the butt with my crappy spear, and farting in the enemy's general direction.
Cheers!
