The Duchess of Dwyns collects a tithe from her vassals and can call upon their soldiers and banner men in times of need.

History

The Duchy of Dwyns was named after it's first ruler, Duchess Dwyns. The ducal family always names their first born girls Dwyna and their first born boys Dwynis.   Because sorcery is unpredictable, the person holding the title has not always been a Dwyn, but this is usually the case as is now.
