Spoiler: Minor House (click to show/hide)

Head of House: Joanna Flores. Aged 27, Joanna is the eldest and most prestigious of the newest batch of Flores bankers, or at least she used to be. With a few well-made contacts and a certain poor nobleman, she quickly became part of the realm's nobility, abit one limited in scope. However, Joanna contents herself with the knowledge she is doing far better than what her family expected of her and far better than what was expected of her sex.
Spouse: Alfred Andersson. Aged 43, his marriage to the Flores scion has always raised more than a few eyebrows. A nobleman once in service to House Laade, his fief was invaded by a rival and has ever since survived by plying the world's oceans. His marriage to Joanna has ensured that she is allowed some autonomy as those not in the know believe him to be the true ruler of the Flores estate. Those with any sense would of course understand the truth.
Designated Heir: Enio Flores. Aged 23, he is the younger and more...effeminate brother of Joanna who unlike the rest of the family, was on good terms with his older sister and as such is currently living with her. Handsome and charismatic, Enio would make most young girls swoon, if he had any interest in them. While his parents tried to marry him of many many times, he had a knack of displeasing his bride-to-be or her parents. While currently Joanna's heir, everyone knows that he's simply a placeholder until Constantine reaches maturity and he wouldn't have it any other way.
Other Children:
Constantine Andersson-Flores. Aged 6, Constantine (or Conni as his family calls him) is the blood heir of the Flores estate and presumable would become ruler of the family were he older. As he is now, Conni would rather spend his time playing with his pets or sneaking around. Of course, his parents make sure he spends a few hours each day learning from his tutors.
Helga Andersson-Flores. Aged 4, Helga hasn't done much to earn a description, although her parents love her regardless.
Bernardo Andersson-Flores. Aged 1, Bernardo learnt to walk very quickly, something hisnursemaid is very proud of.

Demographics
Founder: While the banking dynasty associated with the Flores was founded more-or-less two-and-a-half centuries ago by a wool trader, the noble house of Flores is a very recent creation, having been established when Joanna bought the necessary title from a destitute noble.
Fealty: House Day
Land: Joanna's estates are half a day's ride north of Reweston. A small rocky fief, her estates are mostly pastureland. The moderately successful port town of Cruben is present, but only a fool would ever call it wealthy.
Castle: The manor that once stood in Cruben has long been sold off. The Flores instead inhabit a palace in Reweston. The 'Finca de Lana' is the Flores homstead and is situated well within the wealthier part of the city. Walled and patrolled by many professional soldiers, The abode is almost as strong as an actual castle.
Culture: While the Flores do indeed originate from beyond the realm's borders, only her family name and a few traditions differentiate her from the rest of the empire's well-to-do.

[Insanegame27]

Yay! I have a vassal! You will not be let down, house Flores.

[Ghazkull]

updated sheet to reflect age also updated fealty colour...being darkgreen. I still don't know what that is meant to be good for but yeah.

Quite a bunch of very odd houses there.

Also piratejoe welcome to the cold north. And thanks for all the mead, considering that it was actually very difficult for the Scandinavians to produce large amounts of it it became a luxury good...having you around allows grand feasts

[Xardalas]

Edited my sheet to add in a family crest. It's a little funky because for whatever reason gimp wouldn't load it properly.

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Just need High Tyrol to show up and finish their sheet and we can start.

Family
Head of House: Cro-Cagon of the minor house: Silcugar. Male, 38, Alive (and virile!). A heavy handed lover of blood sport, Cro-Cagon in known for his arbitrary ethics and fierce defense of his homelands. He is dark-skinned, like his ancestors who traveled the sea to claim their spiritual right. Unlike Silcugar, the founder of the house, Cro-Cagon has lost the Spirit Path and rules with his sword first and his pen last. The lack of adequate recordings of the houses history mixed with their assimiliation with local customs have muddied the bloodline and the integrity of the name... but don't tell Cro-Cagon that!

Spouse(s):
Malaya (First Wife). Eldest and betrothed at birth (Wife of Fate), Malaya is the cunning side to Cro-Cagon's brutality, matching his age and sternness. Cunning, Matriarchal, Harsh.
Suino (Second Wife). Chosen on the eve of Cro-Cagon's sixteenth birthday (Wife of Rite), Suino was the passionate flame that fueled Cro-Cagon's ambition. Now, though, his ambition and fury burns too brightly, and Suino shies away at his touch. Mousy and timid, she is a disgrace. Timid, weak, artistic.
Isabella (Third Wife, Prisoner of War). Taken away from her home on a raid, Cro-Cagon married Isabella after his most successful conquest. The raided house still hopes to save Isabella from Cro-Cagon's barbaric rituals, but he would die before suffering such a disgrace. She is light skinned, poised, and cold; made a statue by her years of imprisonment. Still, the harsh conditions of House Silcugar have forged her into a stronger woman, mentally and physically. Stoic, distant, cynical.
Yusui (Fourth Wife). Youngest wife, chosen arbitrarily on Cro-Cagon's thirtieth birthday. Four is the cultural limit for Berkarnen culture, only acceptable if you are extremely powerful or wealthy. She is only sixteen, but shows some promise as a shield maiden. Excitable, Starry-eyed, Careless.

Designated Heir: Ad-Cagon, third son of Cro-Cagon (Malaya). Male, 19, Alive. Not as ferocious as his elder brother Cru, but doubly pious, Ad is an adept fighter but a stronger scholar. He has masters several arts, favouring the tolo (traditional flute). His quick mind has been able to temper Cro-Cagon's disappointment in his lack of savagery. Reserved, scholarly, critical.

Other Children:

• Cru-Cagon, first son of Cro-Cagon (Malaya). Male, 23, Dead. Killed in battle. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but apples don't survive 50 feet drops off of cliffs.
• Cien, first daughter of Cro-Cagon (Malaya). Female, 21, Alive. Noble women of Berkarnen have the choice of the War Path or the Home Path. Cien chose War. She has her father's anger, but shows the restraint Cru-Cagon did not. Passionate, Wroth, Pious.
• Bale-Cagon, second son of Cro-Cagon (Suino). Male, 6(20), Dead. Died to infection. "His blood was as weak as his mother's," Cro-Cagon said at the pyre.
• Rur-Cagon, fourth son of Cro-Cagon (Malaya). Male, 17, Alive. The runt of the family, Rur was a sickly baby that grew into a thin adult. He desparately desires the afection of his parents, and goes to lengths to impress them with his combat prowess. To his credit, he's learned to adapt a quicker, more nimble style of combat to suit his frame. Needy, Hot-tempered, Nimble.
• Syle, second daughter of Cro-Cagon (Malaya). Female, 15, Alive. Born mere weeks before Befta, Syle was destined to fill the role that Cien rejected, the Home Path. Turns out, this suited her just fine. Unlike her siblings, Syle has a kind heart and an old soul. She hates the way her father treats Suino and Befta, and hopes to one day bring some civility back to her House. Compassionate, sharp, frail.
• Befta, third daughter of Cro-Cagon (Suino). Female, 15, Alive. To Cro-Cagon's chagrin, Befta was allowed the choice of either path as the odd daughter. She chose the War Path, both to spite her father and her lineage. She is dull of mind, but has grown into a large frame. Her cumbersome style is compensated with her feral attitude. Dumb, Hardy, Stubborn.

Demographics

Founder: Silcugar sailed from a distant continent to claim the prize on a Spirit Quest. Following the tempered Spirit Path of Sword and Pen, Silcugar carved out a small kingdom out of warring city-states and villages. This was long before the current political climate, and doubted among many scholars from lack of written evidence.

Fealty: TBD

Land: Preferably desert/arid climate. Mountainous terrain. Good for defense, bad for crops. The castle will be situated in the most defensible position available, regardless or arability of land. A mountain pass or key junction of rivers would be favorable. More to come with whomever I pledge fealty to.

Castle: Very old, but extremely sturdy. Made of a foundation of sandstone and reinforced over the centuries with higher grade material, this is more of a bastion than anything. The castle is a military barracks first and foremost, offering spartan dwellings and copious training regiments. Everyone in the castle is trained to fight. Everyone. There are a few foreign scholars (mostly at the request of Ad-Cagon), but most of the castle is brimming with soldiers and servants. The surrounding town scrapes by on what arable land they have, but the mountains nearby allow for refining of minerals into armors, weapons, and tools that are traded for food from allied vassals.

Culture: Berkarnen (partial assimilation). A foreign culture from a distant land, Berkarnen peoples are often warlike, stoic, and adventurous. They are dark skinned and typically boast large, imposing frames. The culture is centered on fertility, war, the home, competition, and strength amid adversity. Much knowledge of the culture has been lost, but the holes have been filled in with the House Lord's culture.

In regards to Founder, the situation has been like this for over 300 years, so the founder cannot be the same guy.  Should note with the era I have in mind for the world, I believe you will find the 'distant continent' is a likely to be a lot closer than you are thinking.
Land you are desiring would put you in fealty to AbstractTraitorHero's House Lordenstein.  Doesn't really have any mountains outside of the house of the High Lord, though.

Family
Head of House:Hans Wolf,Male,23,Still breathing. A lover of hunting like most of his people,Hans tends to go on hunting trips whenever he has free time,he is a master with a bow due to his hobby,he is light skinned and has blonde hair and blue eyes,he has a claw like scar on his cheek from a hunting trip gone wrong when he was much younger,other then hunting the man loves drinks and horse riding which he combines the latter with hunting at times.
Spouse:Helena Wolf,Female,20,Alive. Not much is really known about Helena wolf other then that she tends to remain away from other people not in,or related to her house,she tends to work on the administration of the house though she is commonly stopped and distracted by the children of the house, there are also a few rumors that she use to be a thief which Helena knows about and despises.
Designated Heir:Manfred Wolf,Male,1,Alive. Still very young is commonly always with her mother and is quite playful.
Other Children:Geralt Wolf,Male,1,Alive. Brother of Manfred Wolf born a few minutes after Manfred,he like Manfred is always by his mothers side for being so young though he tends to try and explore only to be scooped up by his mother.
Marissa Wolf,Female,0,Alive. The most recent addition to house wolf born during the archery contest in the summer to which some believe is an omen that she will be a master of the hunt,she by her two brothers all the time.
Motto:For the glory of the hunt!
Demographics
Founder:Franz Wolf,Male,Dead,154.the same person to found the town of Freiennacht,and became its leader with ease it is the same town the house lives in.
Fealty:House Laade
Land:Mostly calm pine and oak forest that's hilly to the west of the town,it has plenty of small creeks and rivers with fish that is one of the farther south then most of the jarls lands.
Castle:The Black Rose manor is not much of a castle,if anything its more of a mansion since the area around the town is so peaceful,that and they cant afford the workforce to make a proper castle without starving the town.
Culture:The Freien people are mostly hunters and masterful with a bow,they have a archery contest every year during the summer and are stalwart defenders of there land,though few almost every Freien knows how to shoot a bow however some like the more intoxicating job of brewing as the few Freien brewers there are make some of the best mead this far south of the Jarls lands and those that master the art of brewing are respected as much as the greatest hunters. When it comes to outsiders they will generally treat them like a normal Freien,but if they steal anything or brake the law in another way they usually get two arrows pinned to there hands and banished with the rest of the criminals,they tend to trade a large number of furs as well as lumber and mead.

Hopefully this is good.

It looks to be good.  Ghazkull did point out the mead problem, but that can be solved by just putting you near the border.

House Abstract
Head of House:
Lord "Abstract" Von Lordenstein the 30th
A kind countenance and a relatively caring man, but beneath that kind heart lies a man who is slowly going mad the pressure of trying to keep this house together, trying to take care of his children, and a culture he doesn't understand, nor want to understand.  Without his supportive wife, he'd have surely lost his life to despair.
Age:25
Male
Appearance:an albino frail weak and skinny and pale grey eyes always with bags under them looking more like a child....and a corpse then a leader to his people.
5ft2
Medium length hair reaching his shoulders

Spouse:
Catherine Von Ludenberg
Greedy and manipulative, Catherine could be considered the true Lord of the house.  She helps as a mother and with finances, and actually is usually the one people talk to during a diplomatic meeting.  She fully intends to take her husband from leadership and rule herself, but she so far does not want to kill him and would prefer greatly to convince him to step down.  With how much the Lord needs her, she may soon have her chance.
Age:45
Black long flowing hair 6ft2 with blue eyes and a bright smile big boobs and many other desirable features.

Designated Heir:
Lord Von Lordenstein the 31
Age:6
Still taking their first steps into the world, the young Lord has no idea who he is and is struggling to develop at all.  He is twitchy, nervous, and has a terrified view of the world. Ultimately he wants to just hide from everything.
He has black hair and pale gray eyes and is currently 4ft6 with slightly pale skin.

Other Children:
Lilly Von Ludenberg: age 5

An albino with blue eyes like her mother she stands 4ft6 and is currently flat chested but that's kinda expected.

Lissa Von Lordenstein: age 4

Appearence:Faded black hair with gray streaks in it Lissa seems to be an....I'll  child sadly but her eyes are a unique vibrant green holding a strong will for some odd reason...
Personality: SLEEPY and sluggish she commonly follows Lissa and her siblings with their daily activities wordlessly a complete and utter mute she has not spoken a word and as such her motivations will be hard to decipher in the coming years if she is smart enough.
Bob Von donenstine
Age:18 ((adopted))
Charismatic and known as a bit of a jokester, but a highly skilled swordsman.  He is horribly naive about the reality of this world and is currently adventuring across the known world for fortune and glory for his family house, with a band that is open for hire to any of the houses called Sidonia's Courageous Wolves. It is composed of over a hundred men and shockingly women including Sidonia herself.
6ft6 with blind hair and brown eyes many bruises and scars from his training with the mercenary's are present over his body he is very fit physically.


Demographics
Founder: Abstract Von Lordenstein
Color:Pale Gray ((think stone))
Land: It is a treacherous journey to enter the land without adequate preparation. It is surrounded on all sides by mountains and actually is not directly touching the borders of any other major house, but with 4 days it can be reached.  The land outside it being basically a desert interspersed with rivers and grassy plains that are quite fertile. Many small towns and the majority of the populace live here while nobles, the military, and others of notable reputation stay in the deepest parts of the country that is surrounded by mountains.  While the inside is rocky, containing jagged cliffs and deep caves with mineral resources, it's full of calm and fresh rivers, predators,limited amounts of prey, and poisonous plants that without careful preparation will make an individual extremely ill.  Few people live here besides the castle and training grounds, and those that do are commonly bandits, mercenaries, or nomads.

Castle: Built into a mountain, it is made mostly of marble as well as hardened and smoothed obsidian.  Three spiraling towers rise through the rocks and are where the nobility commonly sleep when they are coming once a season for their reports.The central, largest one is where the king, his spouse, and heir live, with the rest of the children living in the surrounding towers.  The area inside the tower is massive with its corridors being tight and claustrophobic, making it easy to get lost among them all.

Culture: people who kill their enemies and wild animals for furniture, food, and other things.  Many of these enemies are criminals, commonly thieves or bandits.  Some individuals are whispered to be very accepting of death, praying to the god of the dead to watch over those they have lost.  Those within the castle are known to be extremely polite and courteous to guests, treating them like angels and beloved friends regardless of preconceived perceptions but Individuals at the trading posts and towns, while kind externally, are internally xenophobic and wary of anyone they do not know.  They are frequently skittish and easily frightened, though with occasional exceptions.((ex solders are not easily frightened.

Maybe change 'It is surrounded on all sides by mountains and actually is not directly touching the borders of any other major house, but with 4 days it can be reached' to 'The center has a circle of mountains and requires several days of travel to reach'?  That both clarifies the location of the mountains to what I am guessing you mean for their location, and allows for me to be able to resize things to be bigger or smaller depending.

In regards to Founder, the situation has been like this for over 300 years, so the founder cannot be the same guy.  Should note with the era I have in mind for the world, I believe you will find the 'distant continent' is a likely to be a lot closer than you are thinking.
Land you are desiring would put you in fealty to AbstractTraitorHero's House Lordenstein.  Doesn't really have any mountains outside of the house of the High Lord, though.

The founder is a distant ancestor, and the story is basically a legend at this point. I left it vague, but whenever the founder did this, if he did it the way they say he did, it was probably super long ago. And yeah, the 'distant continent' thing I was leaving vague from lack of map, but the house is modeled sorta by the Berbers crossing to Iberia and setting an Islamic seat of bower near Europe. But I was thinking the real story with the House is some guy, probably named Silcugar, took his tribe, sailed up the coast, and ended up in this area. Fast forward 500+ years and now we have House Silcugar, whose 'founder' had no notion of vassalage.

So can I keep it in that vague, mythical sense, or should I make a more current founder, whose lineage can actually be traced?

As for the location, House Abstract seems like a good fit, but I'm not 100% clear on the layout. I can change it to be a castle in the arid region, so long as it's situated in a tactical location. I'm looking for House Silcugar to be the warden of their liege, a line of defense, and military asset above all else.

Many small towns and the majority of the populace live here while nobles, the military, and others of notable reputation stay in the deepest parts of the country that is surrounded by mountains.  While the inside is rocky, containing jagged cliffs and deep caves with mineral resources, it's full of calm and fresh rivers, predators,limited amounts of prey, and poisonous plants that without careful preparation will make an individual extremely ill.  Few people live here besides the castle and training grounds, and those that do are commonly bandits, mercenaries, or nomads.

Castle: Built into a mountain, it is made mostly of marble as well as hardened and smoothed obsidian.  Three spiraling towers rise through the rocks and are where the nobility commonly sleep when they are coming once a season for their reports.The central, largest one is where the king, his spouse, and heir live, with the rest of the children living in the surrounding towers.  The area inside the tower is massive with its corridors being tight and claustrophobic, making it easy to get lost among them all.

Culture: people who kill their enemies and wild animals for furniture, food, and other things.  Many of these enemies are criminals, commonly thieves or bandits.  Some individuals are whispered to be very accepting of death, praying to the god of the dead to watch over those they have lost.  Those within the castle are known to be extremely polite and courteous to guests, treating them like angels and beloved friends regardless of preconceived perceptions but Individuals at the trading posts and towns, while kind externally, are internally xenophobic and wary of anyone they do not know.  They are frequently skittish and easily frightened, though with occasional exceptions.((ex solders are not easily frightened.

Excellent - Left Fealty TBA, figured we'd see who needed another minor house the most and then fix/add the details when that's been determined! Great houses - Feel free to decide for me Zan if you see a need

Family
Head of House: Gabriel De Bruce (age: 39) Shrewd and gregarious. While he is a competent military man, he has never craved war like some lords. He much prefers negotiation and diplomacy. Once a man in peak physical form, he now walks with a limp after his horse was felled in battle and pinned his leg causing injury.

Spouse: Catherine De Bruce (age: 33) A perfect match for Gabriel. She has a strong affinity for commerce and numbers. Working as the unofficial treasurer for the House. The coffers have increased modestly under her auspices. Though their marriage began as an arrangement for alliance purposes they have grown to love each other very much.

Designated Heir: Edwin De Bruce (age: 17) As Edwin has grown it is becoming more and more apparent he is his father's son. He is charming and enjoys being the center of attention at a party. It's thought that it won't be long before he develops a reputation as a heartbreaker.

Other Children:
Declan De Bruce (Age: 14) Brash and gruff. He much prefers to hit things than attend a dinner with local nobility. A knack for martial matters. He insists he'll be leading the calvary charges as soon as his father lets him.
Melony De Bruce (Age: 12) Some say that Melony is destined to be the smartest of the De Bruce's. While competent at the courts and charming in her own rights, she is much more interested in reading everything she can get her hands on. Gabriel does his best to nurture this, but Two Banks' library leaves much to be desired. It can be assured whenever he travels he will do his best to bring back a new book for his favourite little girl.
Calvin De Bruce (Age: 4) The youngest of the De Bruce family. A meek and friendly young child. He is often sickly though.

Demographics
Founder: Corwin De Bruce. Long the guardian of the Blue River. He used his great trade wealth to militarise the crossing and build Castle Two Banks. Content with being the Gatekeeper between two sides. It wasn't long after that the Great House Jenridge offered a very generous fief for their loyalty and access to the bridge. Since then, house De Bruce has served as the protectors of the Blue River, detering any would-be enemies from striking at them or their liege House.

Fealty: House Jenridge

Land:  most of House De Bruce's successes could probably be linked to it's advantageous position of straddling the great Blue River. With Castle Two Banks sitting between the only link within a close distance. All travel, be it merchant or military in the area must pass through Two Banks or be forced to take a large detour.

The town of Bailey sits on one side of the Blue River. It does well as a minor trade hub, and though it could never compete for the sheer amount of amenities that larger cities offer, it has a reputation as a place where many strange artisan oddities, and goods can be found not available elsewhere. One of a kind hand-crafted is a matter of pride for both the merchants and tradesmen.

Outside of Bailey, the town and castle Two banks are supported by fertile farmland and plains.

Castle: Castle Two Banks - A no-nonsense castle with little in the way of opulence or amenities when compared to the homesteads of the great houses. It sits on an island between the two banks of the Blue River. In times of trouble it can raise the bridges on either side to prevent a crossing. Forcing the opposing force to either try a crossing by boat or find a new way around.

Has the unfortunate nickname 'Castle Too Damp' to those who have to spend any amount of time in it. Even on the hottest of days it seems to have a cold damp air to it. Lord De Bruce declares this 'refreshing', but most think even he is trying to fool himself.

Culture: Outside of their  craftsman 'one-of-a-kind' reputation, the lands of House De Bruce are known for their equestrian tradition. The plains on either side are good for both farming and livestock. Not rich enough to afford heavy knights or infantry, much of their military is based on light cavalry to harass the enemy or spear-men to blunt any counter charge.

Demographics
Founder:Franz Wolf,Male,Dead,154.the same person to found the town of Freiennacht,and became its leader with ease it is the same town the house lives in.
Fealty:House Laade
Land:Mostly calm pine and oak forest that's hilly to the west of the town,it has plenty of small creeks and rivers with fish that is one of the farther south then most of the jarls lands.
Castle:The Black Rose manor is not much of a castle,if anything its more of a mansion since the area around the town is so peaceful,that and they cant afford the workforce to make a proper castle without starving the town.
Culture:The Freien people are mostly hunters and masterful with a bow,they have a archery contest every year during the summer and are stalwart defenders of there land,though few almost every Freien knows how to shoot a bow however some like the more intoxicating job of brewing as the few Freien brewers there are make some of the best mead this far south of the Jarls lands and those that master the art of brewing are respected as much as the greatest hunters. When it comes to outsiders they will generally treat them like a normal Freien,but if they steal anything or brake the law in another way they usually get two arrows pinned to there hands and banished with the rest of the criminals,they tend to trade a large number of furs as well as lumber and mead.

Hopefully this is good.

It looks to be good.  Ghazkull did point out the mead problem, but that can be solved by just putting you near the border.

As stated the town is one of the holdings far south,so that was the plan.
