Hey everyone!

I've new to the boards but have been a long time reader of them. However, I just started reading the book and I have to say it is really well done. It's amazing the amount of work you guys have put into it and it's turned out well enough that I'm trying to tempt my players into trying it.

I do have a question though and I apologize if it seems dumb and I'm missing something.

My question is this:

Can a regent be a regent of more than one thing? Eg. Regent of a Province and Regent of Holdings?

The reason I ask is that I have a player who wants to be a ruler of a domain but I'm unsure how it works from his standpoint. I'm not sure if he gets to be in control of anything, or if everything is controlled by NPC Regents?

For example, if I have:

Province 5
Law Holding 2
Guild Holding 2
Temple Holding 1

How many regents do I have to have for this realm to work?

And if there is a Baron, King, Duke that rules over the entire realm, what does he do as the rest of the regents are planning their domain actions?

Again I apologize if this seems like a stupid bunch of questions. If I'm not being clear enough, I'll rephrase.

Thanks.
