Earl of Arryndale

Earl of Arryndale is a hereditary title in the Stromgarde Peerage, created for William Karwyn shortly after the Kingdom of Stromgarde rose from the old Empire of Arathor. Prior to the rise of Stromgarde, the patriarchs of the house of Karwyn were always styled "Jarl Karwyn"  and chieftains of a noble line dating back to the ancient Arathi humans. The title's territorial designation comes from the mountainous region of Arryndale in the Arathi Highlands. Passed down through an unbroken line of succession, the Earldom is one of many titles held by the ancient house of Karwyn. There have been 17 Earls of Arryndale, and the present Earl inherited the title on the death of his father in December of 623 K.C.
