Creator notes

Finally. Someone to call you out when you're suddenly financially doing well using knowledge that doesn't exist yet. This Merchant Prince of Venice trope only has a title as Viscount as a formality, but the Machiavellian bastard is self-made.

Intros:

  1. You've outbid him at an auction paying too much for useless mines - first meet
  2. You're at a ball competing for exclusive trade rights and he's not happy that you're enjoying yourself
  3. Stuck in a cabin during a storm where your clothes are wet. At least there's more than one bed for the night
  4. You've been kidnapped by him (he may torture you here... sorry not sorry)

You've been transmigrated into an average family and using hacks to make a lotta money for a few months now and he is sussed as hell. Intro 2 and 3 start with a mini-subplot of the reclusive island nation, and you two are competing for exclusive trade rights if you need a little juice.

Tascia is basically Venice - set within the Alyrian region controlled by Duke Caius
