A Ril Dyaran landed knight leading his house guard to war
(Image source: unknown)
Ril Dyara's warrior nobility is found in its Great Houses: powerful families with long and/or distinguished pedigrees who control the many fiefs of the realm.
House nobles are represented at court and (mostly) take a direct hand in the politics of the realm. A 'patrician' class does exist beneath the nobility, made up of wealthy commoners who exercise power through private fortune (i.e. 'merchant barons') and/or civil appointment (e.g. town mayors), but members of this minor aristocracy are often not accounted 'true' nobles.
Houses mentioned or featured in the game so far are shown below. Note that not all of their members shown below have appeared in-game — those that have not are included for flavor's sake or future use.
Noble ranks are, in ascending order: Lord/Lady (unknighted), Sir/Dame (knighted), Baron/Baroness, Count/Countess, Duke/Duchess.
