 Of all the social classes in the fey, this one is the most unique in that what you do ways more heavily than what you were born into. It is also unique in that you can be made an Outsider due to an order from your liege lord, or you may choose to become an Outsider and renounce your class. Of all the social classes in the fey, this one is the most unique in that what you do ways more heavily than what you were born into.

-Even in this social class, there are two unique Outsiders, those of the Oathbreakers and those of the Harlequin Courts. In the Former, you are made this class and typically exiled because of an Oath unfulfilled to your liege lord. Of the former, it is one you choose, renouncing your class and choosing a Harlequin Court. If the Court accepts you is another matter entirely. The Non-Citizen: This societal rank is considered the lowest rank in fey society, much like a commoner in any other society. +Even in this social class, there are two unique Outsiders, those of the **Oathbreakers** and those of the **Harlequin Courts**.

 In addition to ruling, all High Artisans are considered to be from the Greater Houses. Swordsmithing, jewelry making, painting and composing are all considered a Great House artisan skill. If a low-artisan is of sufficient skill, he can be “mentored” into a great House. In addition to ruling, all High Artisans are considered to be from the Greater Houses.

-Each Great House holds the allegiance of hundreds of the Thousand Lesser Houses, and through that allegiance rules the feywilds. Of the Four Great Houses, one House rules over all of them, although it is known that each great House takes on rulership during the cycles. The Current Great House that is ruling the feywilds is the House of Fallen Leaves. +Each Great House holds the allegiance of hundreds of the Thousand Lesser Houses, and through that allegiance rules the feywilds.

 The House of Fallen Leaves has ruled the feywilds for the last two thousand years or so in the mortal realms reckoning, though time has a tendency to flow differently in the feywilds. The House is a strong House known for its poignant leadership in these dire times. The House stands for the binding of Oaths and the swift retribution on those who break them. The House is often spoken of in a negative light in the mortal realms, but it is more through misunderstood or misremembered tales than any true action that the House has taken. This melancholy from the mortal realms pervades this House and it seems that tragedy has struck this House more than the others. The House of Fallen Leaves has ruled the feywilds for the last two thousand years or so in the mortal realms reckoning, though time has a tendency to flow differently in the feywilds.
