Warscheinlich hilft dir das:
- The Great Houses are few and far in-between. Ancient lineage and a history of maintaining power as a House are what make the Great Houses. (Status 7)
- The Major Houses - those that stand equivalent with the Starks save for their designation as Wardens of the North - tend to be rare. (Status 6)
- The Minor Houses are the most common of all the noble houses. Most command a small fortification, a few leagues worth of domain and the smallfolk who work them, and spend their time trying to war with or marry into their neighboring Houses. (Status 4 - 5)
- Landed Knight Households are the households of successful or wealthy knights who have been granted land by the House they serve. They are often given a fortification or estate to manage and defend, though they are still within the service of their patron House. Such households are denied "pit and gallows," and may not use the title "Lord" for their heads of household; their heads of household are instead called "Master." A Knightly Household in service to the Crown or the Warden of one of the directions is accorded slightly higher Status, and referred to as a "masterly house." (Status 3, 4 for Masterly Houses)
