Duchess of Tirmyn

The Duchess of Tirmyn is the feudal ruler of Duchy of Tirmyn, and is a direct vassal of the Queen of Swynfaredia. The title is unisex and passes to the most direct heir with sorcery regardless of whether the heir a sorcerer or sorceress. The current title holder is a sorceress and therefore a duchess, not a duke.

Benefits

In theory, the Duchess of Tirmyn collects a tithe from her vassals and can call upon their soldiers and banner men in times of need, but any aid she gets from her vassals is usually a day late and a silver piece short.
The real benefit of the ducal title is that it comes paired with a county title with a very nice personal demense.
