Dialogue[]

The structure of the Kurzick noble houses can be intimidating to an outsider. However it is the most important part of Kurzick society. What house you are born into effects [sic] everything. It is my duty to keep records of all the houses for public knowledge.

Tell me of House zu Heltzer:

Members of House zu Heltzer are the leaders of the Kurzicks. Since the Jade wind passed over the forest two hundred years ago, the zu Heltzers have led a renaissance of thought, magic, and art. They are the greatest builders and inventors, enchanting the stone itself with magical wards and protections. Their house motto is, "The mind conquers all." Their patron god is Dwayna.

Tell me of House Vasburg:

Those of House Vasburg are the greatest warriors and fighters in the Kurzick Empire. To them battle is a perilous dance for which they train their entire lives. Their house motto is, "Battle is the most magnificent of all the true gods' creations." Their patron god is Balthazar.

Tell me of House Brauer:

House Brauer leads the Kurzicks in their pursuit of the aesthetic. They create great sculptures and paintings trying to bring color and life into the Empire. Their house motto is, "Beauty in everything. In everything beauty." Their patron god is Lyssa.

Tell me of House Lutgardis:

Tell me of House Durheim:
