Shireroth

I propose that Anandja II be referred to as Anandja II Eris, after the intense discord that colored Shireroth during the period.

Perhaps a stupid question but: What does Eris mean?

Greek goddess of strife and discord

We sort of have a backlog of epithets... Ikol II and B'caw I are waiting for theirs, too. Though I think Ikol requested "the Architect", so we could just make that official.

I've tried to avoid choosing my own, because it's the kind of judgment better made by other people, but if I had it probably would've been something like "the Sorrowful" or "the Humbled". I think Jake suggested "the Steadfast" at the time.

I actually requested an epithet after my first kaisership and have yet to get it (I specifically left it to Ric also, so now I'm not entirely sure what to do about it)

Reynardine I Ozymandias the Upholder?

B'caw I Mortis the Spicy for obvious reasons.

To be honest, after thinking about it, I thought "the Burdened" would be appropriate.

It seems to me that every Shirerithian Kaiser is burdened with the responsibility.

Give me a list and I'll review it and likely decree it. Or we could have the Landsraad pass it.

I still don't think Kaisers should ever get to choose or request their own!

Also, B'caw I Mortis the Spicy is so awesome.

You know... I was going to say that it'd be more appropriate for an epithet to reflect the nature of one's reign, but I find it really, really hard to argue against "the Spicy"...

Incidentally, if we're going to start including Bloodline names in Kaiserial names, a la "B'caw I Mortis", I invite everyone to consider that, while decently awesome-sounding in many cases, there are points where it could become awkward if the same scheme was used. Assuming names were kept in their traditional Lines, the next Mors would be "Mors VII Mortis", and, almost certainly worse, the next Raynor would be "Raynor XII Raynor".

Ozymandias was actually the middle name of Reynardine I, the bloodline name is not present. Not entirely sure why Ozymandias is in there, actually...

Ahh. Though Ozymandias would be an awesome bloodline name...

I think there have been 3 Kaisers with "Ozymandias" in their name...

You sure about that? I only remember you having it.

Leto III Ozymandias Win'Eth the Desired

I thought Aurangzeb had it in there too

Sounds a bit strange nowadays, but it was actually my nickname given by Ardy. However, I think that it had been changed to Leto III Ozymandias the Bold.

It doesn't beat B'caw I Mortis the Spicy.

That's true, totally true.

Please, god, don't ever let me become the Kaiser...

Please, gods, do ever let me become the Kaiser...

*boobytraps the throne*

pardon? I wasn't listening...

*has Fides held up at His Niftiness' pleasure*

Fides.. I shall now see to it you become Kaiser some day...

Oh, so you're going to remove the one-nationality Kaiser restriction? If I'd known that was on the table I might have stuck around in the country myself.

Yeah, with that qualifier, I'd never become Kaiser.

Speaking of which...

*runs whiteout over the relevant sections of the constitution*

*watches as Fides smears whiteout on the walls*

*erases the uni-cit restriction on the Throne from the Charter*

It's all the same crap to me.
