Barony

A Barony is the claimed territory of a Baron. 
Though each Barony will be slightly different than the next - depending on the Baron - they each have common elements. Every Barony has a Sheriff , that sheriff may appoint a number of deputies to police the domain and keep the peace. No Baron's court would be complete without a Herald who ensures that those who have business with the Baron get to see him and that no rumor escapes their ears. Under each Baron are Lords of the Domain - that is to say that there are Kindred who have sworn their fealty to the Baron and in return have been given territories within the Barony to rule in his or her name. Within each territory may reside a number of Squires , those kindred of little or no status within the barony or Kindred society in general. Ghouls can play a role wtihin the Barony but only if their master is of some significant status. 
The Court of a Baron is where ever he wishes it to be. Normally it is at a location where security can be maintained to an appropriate level so as to protect the kindred gathered. Some Barons will hold court in a Blood Bar where as others will keep Court and Feeding as seperate ideas and hold their meetings elsewhere.
