"The Ten Families" is the name given to the collective of Patrician families who lead the Venici people. Each particular lineage specializes in a certain skill or trade.
Contents |
Aleron
Scholars, diplomats, scribes - Alerons thrive on interaction with and study of other cultures, and the world around them.
Artano
Military strategists and skilled combatants, Artanos are trained from youth to be leaders in battle. There are rumours that certain members of the Artano family are more skilled at other, less overt, uses of weapons, for a price.
Corvisan
The Corvisan family is best known for their skills at working with metals. It is a mark of honor amongst the Venici to wield a blade crafted in the Corvisan forges, and their armor is nearly as well known for its aesthetics as for its dependability in combat.
Falinero
Tailors.
Loraden
Herbalists and healers
Penelli
Penellis are chefs.
Orsini
Jewelers
Rigio
Generations of intense training and carefully planned marriages have produced in the Rigio line a strong talent for working with the elements. Those children born without great innate talent devote their lives to studying the more mundane aspects of elemental theory, along with researching practical applications for the magic.
Venere
The family Venere devote their lives to living and spreading the worship of Bellamane.
Ziani
While most Venici are patrons and lovers of the arts, the Ziani especially hone the skills of performance and visual art in their children. Many great painters, singers, and sculptors have come from the Ziani line.
