Noble Houses

Noble Houses

Alignment & Roleplay Considerations: Players must apply to roleplay as members of noble families represented in game such as but not limited to Freth, Claddath and Derlson. If accepted, you are expected to play them as an unimportant member of that House. Your character will not hold sway or authority to represent the rest of the lineage.

Characters with the noble reward are expected to not roleplay as royalty. Your character is welcome to lie, of course (as is anyone about being noble in the first place), but you can not actually play as a royal character.

Naming Conventions, Titles: Characters are not allowed to have titles in their name. For example, these names would all be forbidden. We will rename your character and forcefully drop the title. Please do not make us do this.

Underdark

Vaunted Freth

House Freth, an NPC drow house known to be influential in the Arelith under-region. Once cast into exile for their unorthodox beliefs, they took their chance during the city of Andunor's establishment to seize a metaphorical seat of power within The Devil's Table. Thanks to this positioning their ideology Freth Faith, once shunned as heresy, has become more widely accepted in the Underdark.

Exalted Claddath

The defacto ruling NPC House of The Sharps District, much of House Claddath's history defies description or is too nightmarish to even encapsulate in a brief summary. Known as the House of Horrors and flesh crafters churning out abominations in the name of the Abyssal Mother. This Noble House has a reputation of keeping to themselves, much to the relief of the District they oversee. For few in their right mind would desire the attentions of such a family or their Matron.

So you know, there's three paths to playing a 'noble' award:

First: The easiest is to make one up yourself! Come up with a cool name, a reason why you're on Arelith from the mainland, and go for it! Or claim to be a lesser-known noble house on Arelith! That could work too.

Second: Find an existing player noble house and contact them OOC to ask if you can join as a family member. There are a few dotting about.

Third: Join a currently EXISTING noble house of NPCs. (e.g. House Derlson, House Freth, ect) Joining these holds a little more RP clout. They are powerful NPC organizations after all, so we (the dm team) ask you to send in an application to us for this, to get permission first. Just covering things like who your character is, what their aims are, et cetera, et cetera, nothing too wild.
