Lesser Aliahn Noble Families

These families are not as powerful as the greater families. Because of the way Aliahn culture works some of these families have quite recently become noble, and as such some have little power or influence outside their lands.
 * Kalle Family: The Kalles are a little known family that governs a small region known as Hiah. The head of their family is Lord Orinn, Duke of Hiah. Their crest is a black field with a silver mountain peak on it.
 * Yates Family: The Yates are the caretakers of the royal family vacation home in Dauthland a region in southern Aliah. Their crest is a blue castle standing over a silver lake.
 * Gormund Family: This family is famous across Aliah for the horses they breed and train. Commonly merchants will claim they have Gormund horses to warrant higher prices. Lord Maron is the head of the family. Their crest is a grey steed over a brown field.
 * Grey Family: A family that swears allegiance to the Hawkbloode House. Lord Titus Grey heads this house from Greywatch, a formidable castle on the eastern plains of Aliah.
 * DeHeron Family: It has only been a decade since house DeHeron was recognized as a noble family. The circumstances of their raising deal mainly with services rendered during an attempted coup staged from the shores of the Goddess' Eye by the now imprisoned Blackwell House. The DeHerons had been a merchant family, dealing in transport of goods across the great lake, as well as owning a large part of the fishing fleet that sailed those waters. The family had stood to make a small fortune, providing transport of troops to the security posts that allowed aerial access to high Edra. Instead, Stefano DeHeron had chosen to stay loyal to the crown and fed the traitors to the lake and the Royal Militia. In the interim of that choice, House DeHeron has prospered with the accumulation of royal charters for transport and supply of goods to the capital and across the lake. In most of the fishing villages which line the lake, many of the men at arms and militia bear the insigna of the newest noble house.
 * Ellington Family: A long standing noble family of Aliah. The Ellingtons are mostly involved in farming in central Aliah.
