Lesser Noble HousesThe bulk of noble houses between the lines of the truly great and the small or petty, these lesser houses while less prominent, and powerful than others, still hold a surprising amount of sway and can either be valued allies or fearsome enemies. It's wise to mind oneself around these nobles.
House GildedIn the Eyerie a good portion of wealth and merchants have, some way or another, ties with House Gilded. While they own little land in the city itself, they own much of the land around it, and in surrounding villages. They are employers and clever businessmen. Taverns, inns, bawdy houses, and entire guilds of craftsmen get their work in buildings operated by this wealthy and cunning family.
The public sees them amiably, how could anyone who puts so much work into the spread of booze and merriment not be your friend? Their competition for business sees them less so, and it can be easier to work for House Gilded than to try to compete with them.
House MonocerasAn oddity among the more established noble houses, House Monoceras is a family of Halflings that've risen to prominence through more mundane trades, wise investments and smart buys of choice pieces of land. They're considered particularly eccentric, but not unpleasant.
