Houses

Houses are dynastic families that hold land, vast wealth or aristocratic power. They are implied to be mostly irrelevant in the Holy Empire of the Four, where dynasties are not as highly regarded in favor of piety. In the Union of the Free Lordships and the Kingdom of Auresia however, members of such houses are seen as part of high society and are very well regarded.

Houses in the Union
New houses in the Union are mainly formed around land ownership and possession of vast quantities of wealth, there are however ancient houses with a long dynastic history of aristocrats that are shown to be better regarded and more often placed in positions of power.
