House Torquann

 

This mixed house has settled deep into the north central provinces, and has largely seperated its ties with House Torquann in the Aerdi lands to the distant Great Kingdom(s).

Traditionally aloof in national politics, this house has a long, long history of dour, hard, repressive rulers whose lands suffer heavy taxation and relatively repressive laws. Many of their blood spend their lives in the pursuit of the perfection of agriculture and Urnstian Brandy. Secrets are held tightly by this insular house, and they are loathe to share information with anyone. They tend to be controlling, stingy, and very wise with their assets and income.

They control the port of Bampton, from which they export their products.

The Torquann are the controlling interest in the Urnstian Wine Cartel and are rumored to carefully hoard tremendous amounts of gold. As a tradition to reflect their devotion to vintenry, the head of the house is known as the Lord Vintner (an Archbaron title).

The current head of the House is Lord Vintner Deremett Torquann. Lord Torquann is a very close ally and friend to Lord Duncombe and he has thrown the support of his family behind Lord Duncombe's declaration of Regency.
