The Major Houses
House of Simmun The House of Simmun was originally a branch of the House of Baerin, but after a long struggle the House of Simmun was recognized by the Baerlings as a separate House, although never liked. The rivalry between the two Houses began soon after the division as both Houses believed that they were the true heirs to the throne, luckily there has never been any civil war because of this rivalry, but there have been several minor battles between them. When Kraan was annexed and the House of Tokura became a faction of power the rivalry between the Simmuns and Baerlings cooled down for a bit, but as the Tokurans were not believed to be a real threat the rivalry heated up again. |

Although after the later annexation of Maliera, and the new-found threat in the weak alliance between the Tokurans and Brods, the Simmuns and Baerlings have become what can be described as good friends. The Simmuns still contest for the throne, but will not go for it openly without the support of the Baerlings. House of Tokura Historically the House of Tokura was the rulers of the Kraanan Kingdom, but after its annexation they have mostly acted as governors of Kraan. The Tokurans also controlled the emposian throne for a while, but it was lost once again, to the Baerlings. The dream of independence has mostly been forgotten by most of the Tokurans, who rather aspire for the throne of Emposia and to move it to Kraan. After the annexation of Maliera the Tokurans have found a friend in the Brods. House of Brod The House of Brod was until recently the ruling house of Malieran Empire. Despite losing the throne, they kept a lot of their previous power and loyalty within the lands of old Maliera. Most of the Brods still remember being the rulers of Maliera, and there are always someone talking about separation from Emposia. Being stripped of all their powers in Sivaris many of the Brods has moved to Empo Sar to be able to try and push the king in their direction. The main body of the Brods are still living in Sivaris though. After their entrance into Emposian do |

The Minor Houses
House of Osric The House of Osric claim to be able to trace their house back to the creation of mankind to the remnants of one of the original Twelve Houses which were made by the Creators. The House of Osric is the strongest house in western Aerath. The house officially rules Hecate, though their reach of power doesn't truly extend much further. The House of Osric previously had many positions of power within the Kingdom of Kraan. However, after the annexation they were stripped of all powers and titles in Kraan. Most of the Osrics living in Kraan either moved out of the city to settle in smaller villages, or moved on to Empo Sar to try and rise as a faction of power there. A small number joined the rest of their house in Hecate. |

small number joined the rest of their house in Hecate. Because of the recession in Hecate as of late, several Osric families have recently moved eastwards to Empo Sar and its surroundings. The Hawkeye Clan The Hawkeye Clan is the only dwarven clan where the entire clan has moved out of the mountain and become Wilders. The first Hawkeyes settled in Empo Sar in the early 300s but didn't become much of a power fraction before in the late 700s when more or less the entire clan moved out of their mountain hold in the northern mountains to Empo Sar and the surroundings. Because of their rising power the Hawkeye dwarves are hoping to be recognized as a noble clan along the human Houses in Empo Sar. |
