“BORN & BRED”
House Greythorne is an Elven noble house. Founded on Sanctus, House Greythorne has built its reputation on animal husbandry, by training skilled mounts, pets, and beasts that can be used in adventuring the untamed wilds. Though often viewed as an upstart house, House Greythorne wears their new blood as a badge of honor. Legitimizing bastards who they view as fruitful in their service, or bonding with other houses.
Through their generations on Sanctus, the house has extended their reach by partnering with adventuring and trade companies, providing the mounts, and perhaps beasts that will aid in their protection. This move has gained the Greythorne’s far more favor with non-noble partnerships, and brought in new wealth.
But wealth alone does not impress nobility. House Greythorne has seen its struggles on Sanctus. The family lacks the old histories, and artifacts that make up so much of the ancestral noble families. A connection that cannot be bought or borrowed.
In the present, House Greythorne has partnered with Gilded Ventures, an adventuring company, to provide a stable influx of new mounts and beasts. This arrangement was fostered by House Kimura, another noble house that has shared interests, and in turn, has brought House Greythorne into the political fold.
Politics aside, this new union has shown promise and with the potential trek to Verra, House Greythorne is certain to build upon its roots in the new world.
Joining a vassal house does not prohibit players from joining a guild branch.
