Help[Games] Daffy's Overly Elaborate Medieval Year Game
(As requested, this is a re-post of my old game. Hope you have fun!) Every country has specific namebanks and specific events. Most people in medieval times had no middle name but… whatev, you do you! It is also up to you how severely your family will be affected by events. Once a child is grown you can roll (or choose) their profession and create an SO for them. :)
Dice: (http://www.brockjones.com/dieroller/dice.htm)
a. Roll an 8-die or choose your family’s homeland:
1 England An naval island nation with unsteady relationships.
2 France A rich and ostentatious kingdom.
3 The Holy Roman Empire A massive, powerful, multicultural nation.
4 Ireland A rocky, resilient island under English jurisdiction.
5 Muscovy A cold and relatively secluded duchy.
6 The Spanish Empire A maritime nation of explorers.
7 Scotland A green, agrarian nation that has thwarted off many invaders.
8 The Republic of Venice An intellectual, bustling, cosmopolitan land.
Create a starter household (The rest of the game is played with the 12-die):

- The Holy Roman Empire: Surnames for women/girls end with either “in”, “yn”, or “s”. (Pfeiffer = Pfeifferin or Pfeiffers, Vogel = Vogelin or Vogels)
- Ireland: A woman typically does not take her husband’s name. Instead of “Ó” or “Mac” women use “inghean Uí” and “inghean Mhic” respectively. (If a woman’s father’s given name is “Lochlann”, her surname may be “inghean Mhic Lochlann”. If a woman’s family’s name is “Ó Broin”, her surname may be “inghean Uí Broin”)
- Muscovy: Everyone’s given name is followed by a patronymic. For men: the patronymic will end in “ovich” or “evich” (“Dmitrii” becomes “Dmitrievich”, “Nikita” becomes “Nikitovich”). For women: “ovna” or “evna” are used (“Nikita” becomes “Nikitovina”, “Dmitrii” becomes “Dmitrievna”). A woman’s surname/byname must also end with an “a” or “ia” (“Kliushnikov” becomes “Kliushnikova” or “Kliushnikovia”)
- The Spanish Empire: N/A

20 Years With the Holbrook Family in Medieval England
Year 0:
Simon and Matilda have been friends since childhood and in love since adolescence, and are now newlywed at the local church in their town in Kent, England. Simon has taken over the family farm from his father and settled in the farmhouse with Matilda. They plan to start a family and are very hopeful and excited about the years to come.

* housewife

Year 1:
Simon and Matilda are thrilled to welcome their firstborn - a son! They name him Alexander. Simon is pleased to already have an heir who can take over the farm when he himself grows too old to manage it.

Year 2:
There is a riot in the town square. Matilda gets caught up in it while out with Alex; luckily, the one-year-old is unharmed, but Matilda sprains her ankle badly. When she gets home, Simon is extremely worried and insists she rest it for several days. Within a week, she is able to walk on it again, but she's not keen to return to the town square.

Playing again! :D - The MacMorran Family
Scotland A green, agrarian nation that has thwarted off many invaders.
FINAL FAMILY
Hendrie & Nialla || [Ruadhán], Mairead / Magnus, Beitris / Isobell, Henry / Niall, Lilias
Hendrie & Eilionoir || (Duncan, Clara), Aileas
- Ruadhán & Finnola || Mhàiri, Ninian, Padraig
- Mairead & Seamus
- Magnus & Ysenda || Faolán / Finlay
YEAR 0: Hendrie and Nialla, whose parents are acquainted and who have known each other for years and slowly fell in love, are wed on a (mercifully) bright May afternoon.
DH [22] Hendrie MacMorran – handicraftsman / curly, black hair and dark brown eyes
DW [20] Nialla Shearer – tailor’s daughter / straight, brown hair and blue-green eyes
YEAR 1: Nialla gets pregnant nearly instantly and early into the new year they welcome their first child – make that children, fraternal twins! The new parents are completely overwhelmed and utterly overjoyed with Mairead and Magnus.

- DD [nb] Mairead MacMorran – frizzy, black hair and blue-green eyes
- DS [nb] Magnus MacMorran – curly, brown hair and dark blue eyes
YEAR 2: Hendrie damages his hand badly with an awl while woodworking, which damages nerves and breaks some bones in his hand which heal poorly. Thankfully he works with family so is able to continue working with some modifications, albeit with pain and not as quickly, which begins causing concern for the family’s income.
YEAR 3: The family is blessed with another set of twins, this time identical girls whom they name Beitris and Isobell. This brings great happiness along with a bit of concern for the young parents especially given Hendrie’s injury last year. Nialla wants to help make some income as well, but now with four babies, that won’t be possible yet.

Barsukov Family
This is the one I did in 2018 (or whenever this game was last posted). It's not quite complete, but I wanted to keep it here anyway since there's so much written for it that I never otherwise posted.
DH: Nikita Kirillovich Barsukov (straight brown haired physician)
DW: Feodosiia Gavriilovna Barsukova (curly red haired herbalist)
Nikita met Feodosiia when she tried making a new salve, tried it out on herself, and ended up with not only a rash, but a fever and chills, and vomiting.
"I think it's safe to say that one is poisonous," Nikita told her as he did his best to medicate the rash.
"You never know until you try," she'd replied, and somehow instead of being put off by an amateur trying to do his job, he'd been completely smitten.
Feodosiia had inherited a bit of land from her mother and Nikita had sold his small patch of land to afford to travel to school and learn medicine so when they married the following year, he moved into her simple home and the two penned in a few rabbits and chickens and began their life together.
Year 1:
Nikita brought home a large goose for dinner one night which would have been all well and good if Feodosiia hadn't stumbled upon three tiny motherless goslings near their home the next morning. She deposited the three of them into her gathered apron and brought them into their house. Originally, she told herself they'd raise them for food, but after she lost the first one unexpectedly and her frown got firmer, she worked harder to care for the other two. When the second one got out of the house and became dinner for a feral cat, Feodosiia frowned firmer, named the remaining gosling, and informed Nikita they they were not eating him.
Nikita certainly approved of the name, Uzhin*, and eventually even warmed up to the bird itself.
DH: Nikita Kirillovich Barsukov (22)

Goose: Uzhin

The Le Grant (+ Thomas + Roussel) Family - fun, really enjoyed it!
FINAL FAMILY
Alain & Meraude || Marguerite, Ysabeau, Clarette / Juliote, Tristan - *Kex, Amis, Felix, Adri, Manon
Alain & Symonne || Sebastian, Maximilian - *Belle
- Marguerite & Gabriel || Sandrine, Étienne - *Abricot
- Ysabeau & Benoît || Vallerian, Gentian, Victoire / Nicaise
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
YEAR 1
Homeland: France, A rich and ostentatious kingdom
DH [23] Alain Le Grant
Playwright – Wavy, golden blonde hair and hazel eyes
DW [18] Meraude (de Seyssel) Le Grant
Housewife/Literary Muse – wavy, white blonde hair and pale blue eyes
- ADD [2] Marguerite [Papon] Le Grant “Margot” – wavy, light brown hair and green eyes
Mildly successful playwright Alain is captivated when he meets the daughter of an author he’s recently become acquainted with. Pale beauty Meraude instantly becomes his muse. Her wit matches any of his fellow penman and her laugh delivers his heart to the heavens (plus, she makes a mean fruit tart). Though it takes a while for her to return the lovestruck man’s advances (as the daughter of a writer she’s seen her share of young women go astray due to a poet’s pen and passionate protestations of love then be left in despair when those passions move on to the next available skirt, and she is determined to not fall prey to the same idiocy) Meraude warms to his earnest charms through their lively conversation. Against his father’s wishes (who wanted him to ingraciate himself into wedlock with a doting patron of “wise” years and ample fortune), Alain asks her father for her hand and, a week after Meraude’s 18th birthday, the couple are wed.
Meraude’s friend, who washes laundry for the hospital, comes for a visit with a baby. She tells Meraude the child’s both just died of a fever. Before her birth mother died, she whispered her name to the nurse, Marguerite. The nurse asked Meraude’s friend to take the child for the evening and deliver it to the nuns at the orphanage in the morning. When Meraude holds little Marguerite she can’t think of giving her up. When Alain returns home she tells him of her thought. He looks into the little face, is just as smitten with the baby as his wife, and so she becomes their own. They call her Margot.

Foscari Family -incomplete (TBC)
Venice
Lazaro Zanfrancesco Foscari
Hair: Curly, Dark Brown
Eyes: Amber
Occupation: Goldsmith
Simona Bassana (Premarin) Foscari
Hair: Straight, Light Brown
Eyes: Hazel
Occupation: Artist
Lazaro and Simona's marriage was arranged by their fathers and they had only met a handful of times when the wedding took place. Lazaro's family had been goldsmiths for generations and quite successful ones at that. Besides learning the family trade, Lazaro had been finely educated and lived with all of the modern luxuries of 1400s Venice.
Simona had also been brought up with a considerable about to wealth and while she had not been educated in a school, she had been taught all of the things a woman of her station was expected to know- sewing, weaving, baking, household and wealth management, and religion.
They were married when Lazaro was nineteen and Simona was sixteen and they built their home together quite ready to show the world what they had to offer, even if to them that mostly meant simply proving themselves to their families.
Year 1
Almost as soon as Lazaro and Simona are married, Simona shows interest in reviving her interest in pottery making. While Lazaro sees it as a trivial matter, content to let her play around with her hobby so long as she isn't neglecting other aspects of her life, her own family sees it as a slide back into childish ways that they should have never allowed her to cultivate in the first place. Her mother began to stress regularly how much more important it was for her to prepare for children and cater to her husband while her father stressed to her repeatedly that her time would be better spent in prayer and in reciting verses to make her a more morally upright woman. Neither parent was pleased when Simona went right on making pottery and even sent her parents a large, ornate vase for their anniversary.

Her mother began to stress regularly how much more important it was for her to prepare for children and cater to her husband while her father stressed to her repeatedly that her time would be better spent in prayer and in reciting verses to make her a more morally upright woman. Neither parent was pleased when Simona went right on making pottery and even sent her parents a large, ornate vase for their anniversary.

Noticing how well the twins got on with Lionne, Geneviève offered to take the girls in.

Year 1: Laurent and Margot are newlyweds. Margot is a long time assistant of Laurent's mother, who was a prominent minstrel in the courts until a few years ago. Margot began her work with Laurent's mother seven years ago, and since then, has visited the family on every possible occasion. Three years ago, Laurent worked up the nerve to ask to court Margot, and they have been inseparable since. Just nine months after their February wedding, the couple welcomes their first child, a son, in late November. The son is named Mathieu, for Laurent's twin brother who died eight years ago.

H [25]: Karius Kniss
W [21]: Fredegunde Knissin "Frede"
Cats [4m]: Mietzi and Schliere
Dog [3]: Walli
Karius and Frede are childhood neighbours who have had eyes for each other for years. They are both children of farmers, Karius the youngest son and Frede the second-oldest daughter. They have recently gotten married and moved into a cottage on the edge of a small village.
Karius has been hunting since childhood. He has a pair of keen black eyes, a stout and resilient physique and cloud of short, brown hair on his head. With him is almost always his trusted companion Walli, an excellent hunting dog he has raised and trained since she was a puppy.
Frede is a tall beauty with pale ginger hair in a long braid and intelligent blue-green eyes. She has a bright voice and often sings hymns and lullabies when her husband is in the woods and she is at home by herself. She got a pair of grey kittens as a wedding gift from her sister, and Mietzi and Schliere both keep her good company and keep the mice away from her bread.
