House Velstra definetly needs some PCS.

Race Human (DM Permission to play one of Lord Norbert's Bastards.)

Alignment Any

Class: non Druid 

There are sides to House Velstra thst are heavily missing. We are supposed to be a place of scholars, and oddball artists and we are lacking in those departements. We have a crazy insane boy wizard Ruul who screams for more funding for his projects. Eccentric/insane wizards should def consider Velstra. 

Some perks of Velstra

1 Free resting and storage

2 Easy acsess to questing buddies and IG comrades.

3 Instant chance to take part in intrige and plots.

4 As much or as little PVP as you desire. 

5 The best faction uniform of all time. 

6 You can get an NPC spouse if you rock out enough.

7 A very open house where basically any alignment or concept can work out.

Some example characters that could work

1 Bards that want to hold events, entertain, and amuse people at the endless feasts. Artists philosophers, Journalists or even just people thst enjoy making clothing.

2 An ambitious arcanist that cares nothing for Velstra solely using its garden for alchemical goods. That plots with Norbert's son Ruul to see more of the house's resources go into some experiments.

3 One of Lord Norbert's many bastard's aspiring for legitimacy and recognition. To be used and married off to elevate his most loyal of retainers to the Winespill name. DMS have said some open concepts are possible for bastard PCS possibly a non human bastard to bring further scandal to the house.

4 Fops and overall wine drinkers. Arrogant snobs and assholes who think they are better than everyone.

5 A chef dedicated to making the best
meals and to being the best chef in ring 99. 

6 Human Supremacists dedicated to keeping non humans out of the Garden and mocking them.

7 Skilled duelists and aspiring knights who wish to gain honor and prove themselves worthy. Aspiring Weaponmasters who want to train with the Red Lion.

8 Rumor mongers and gossips who wish to spread news of scandals. As well as tales of the Garden's excess.

9 A creepy spymaster who  handles the more dark and covert matters of the house. 

10 Scum womanisers and man chasers who desire nothing more than to marry Norbert's bastards and possibly even their legitament children  or Lord Norbert himself  to gain true nobility. Possibly even willing to kill Norbert or some of his children to gurantee their heir of choice.

11 A gamekeeper Ranger that wants to show off all manner of exotic beasts in the Vale. 

12 Some of the many scum bandits of ring 99 dedicated to getting goods of prestige and showing them off. Attracted to the glamour and excess of the Vale after a long and hard life.

13 A holy paladin that wants to guide the house into a direction of holiness and honor.

14 Strung out drug addicts and drug pusher who are all about partying and spreading drugs in the Peerage Ward.  This is definetly a house for alcholics and druggies.

15 Large Obese  PCS  for of all of the above. We need some Obese PCS we have an endless feast and you can constantly emote eating.

Some more info below.



House Velstra, led by the ageing and obese patriarch Norbert Velstra, is the most decadent and scandal-ridden House in the Peerage Ward. Members of the house have a distinctive pale parchment-hued skin and copper-red hair.

House Velstra is mocked and reviled outside of the Peerage. Persistent rumours about Norbert's sexual profligacy (a revolving door of official matriarchs, having a very large number of children, siring bastards, keeping concubines and catamites, and wilder rumours) and the House's many excesses (such as holding an "endless feast" over many years, investing its wealth in vanity projects, and acting as the patron of socialites, oddball artists, and eccentric scholars) have given House Velstra a reputation of permanent scandal in Ring 99. Despite its reputation, House Velstra remains one of the more powerful houses in the Peerage.

Its retainers (many of whom are the illegitimate children of Lord Norbert, styling the surname "Winespill" as a mark of this heritage) tend to be socially adept, sybaritic, and cunning. Note: DM Permission is required to play a "Winespill."
