Talk:Lower Noble Houses

Okay so seriously do you want to shorten the number to 13 TOTAL or do you want the Upper Five and Lower 13 making 18 total. Anniezard 14:24, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

No wait what
Isn't that what's already going on? Or did we have another thirteen PLUS the five? What do you want? I can go with anything, really. So it's up to you. Narwhallo 14:48, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

The original number called for eighteen total: Five Upper, Thirteen Lower, as of Welkin. There were a few more that had Fallen along the way. If you think 18 is too many, we can knock it down to Five Upper, Eight Lower, for thirteen total. Anniezard 14:52, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

Lower Noble List
From the original discussion about the finalized Lower Houses. Here's the list we made.
 * Rigmasters
 * Brewers
 * Engineers
 * Shipwrights
 * Medics
 * Navigators
 * Culinary
 * Musicians
 * Cartographers
 * Messengers/Storytellers
 * Oremasters
 * Tacticians
 * Innovation

Interesting note: This list was shortly followed by the invention of the then-called "Rogue House." Anniezard 14:50, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

Oh development RG, how I love your nostalgia.

I'm fine with either, so long as we denote that the upper houses are called by their names as opposed to their numbers for clarification. What are you thinking? Also we need another house, it seems... Narwhallo 14:58, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

Right. Forgot Innovation. Also, I really don't care which one we use. Any houses that get knocked from Noble would just shift to Guild. So whatever. Anniezard 15:01, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

MAKE A DECISIONNNN EITHER WAY IS FINE
but we have to keep house of poopsmiths. Or titties. Your call.

But more seriously it comes down to how large you want the noble group to be, how many major cities, etc.

Narwhallo 15:02, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

So this comes down, once again, to the fact that we need a map. Larger number of Houses would mean provinces usually have two Houses. Lower number would mean one. Which of THOSE two ideas sounds better to you?

Additionally: Lower number of Houses would mean less goverened businesses, which would lend control more towards the pariliament than the nobles (in terms of royals vs. joes, etc). It would raise a question as to how something like a Brewery House would survive as opposed to, say, Oremasters or something. And if most Fallen Houses became Guilds, why that would matter so much to Jezza if it isn't really The End.

I think this needs a chats. Anniezard 15:07, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
