The Four Major Houses

The four major houses of Sanctus are guilds who control the most power and contain the most members of any other house in the city. Wielding immense power a piece, it is no wonder that some houses serve as the city’s government and police force. These four Houses are known by heart by all who have lived here for longer than a week, with minor houses being more obscure.

Each Major House has a city of their own, in some cases more a fortress, away from the main city of Sanctus. These are connected by the archstones, and exist on the same plane of existence as Sanctus.

Crows(LN): Serves as an economic and political force for Sanctus; lawmakers, trade officials, constables, judges.

Wolves(LN): Serve as the police force for the city. They are responsible for keeping the peace, and are good at doing so.

Cobras(CN): Problematic to any organized governmental system or market.

Lions(CG): House of warriors who pride themselves on their dueling capability and honor.
