How much would you say the standard ransom would be to recover a regent?
Suppose Ghoere captures Ibn Daouta in a war, how much would be appropriate
to ask for his return?

In real life, about a year`s income was common. In many cases more. In BR,
I`d say less, because the timescale is so accelerated. One truns income,
perhaps?

If Ghoere had captured the regent in a war, I think Ghoere wants something special. IMO 2 GB are O.K., but the regent of Ghoere would take something better, may be a province or a powerful magical item...
May Khirdai always bless your sword and his lightning struck your enemies!

The 2E Birthright rulebook gives a guideline on p. 93:
"A ransom equal to 1 GB per character level or per province of holding
ruled by the captured character is fair."
