Margrave

The Margrave is responsible for conducting the trips from Akashat into the dream worlds outside and gathering goods and supplies needed to keep the city running. The Margrave thus has two basic but very important powers - the ability to cast the portal into outside dream space and basic control of the flow of slaves and goods into the economy.

The Margrave's right hand VIP is the Vizir. The Margrave may appoint any other employees that they wish to keep on their list, but the Vizir is considered their "next in line" and can step in for them at official functions, etc. They also usually appoint a Slave Market manager since they control the offices of the Slave Market and the desert compound known as Ras El Hanouf.

As regards theme of powers : 1) The ability to cast the portal is ultimately bestowed via magic from the Royal Couple on the chosen Margrave (no one else can ever cast it aside from the Margrave). Thus - thematically the Arcanus' control of magic does not affect the Margrave's ability to call up the Dream Portal. 2) The portal can be cast anywhere and as needed, and it can be cast to -any- place or time that can be dreamt about (even purely realms of fantasy). Generally, it is considered to be easier to go places/times that each elected Margrave is personally familiar with, or has gathered a lot of information about. So different Margraves will have different interests and places to run their caravans. 3) They are traveling into a dream state from the dream state that is Akashat. The Portal does NOT break into the waking world at any time, ever. It is not possible. 4) The caravans to different destinations can be run as makes sense and fun for all - they can be fighting raids or calm trading/bazaar sessions with the occupants of that dream state. 5) When on a caravan destination - no one can get out of the dream back into their "real waking world", even if they manage to get to their own city and own point in time - they are in the dream state only. They cannot speak to themselves in dream, but it -might- be theoretically possible at least for them to speak in dream to others that they knew. It is extremely unlikely that the portal ever touches the same exact dream state at the same point in time, so even if the same place and time gets managed closely, there will be the differences (small and large) that one might expect from another person's dream on the same subject.

Suggested points of rp : 1) Caravans to any point of destination/time that amuse the Margrave to consider. 2) Trading/bartering rp for specific orders from the populace 3) Slaves Market rp - The Margrave controls the Market - so anything from capture rp to sales 4) Commerce - Margrave supplies all major goods beyond the basics. 5) Wealthy parties - has always been known for lavish parties 6) Politics - help or hinder the other two. Tends to be a more balancing role between Emir and Arcanus  who can thematically be at odds with one another more often.
