While the Consuls claimed ownership over Carcino, they did not always truly run it. This was actually quite true, in that there were a number of other factions who made up the Great Blue Jewel. The most noticeable were the guilds—powerful merchant and craft organizations that controlled much of the life-blood of the city. Often several of these merchants served on the Senate, but not all sought the boredom of diplomacy.
Nobility
An important Carcinian faction was the local nobility. It consists of 85 families of varying degrees of power, most of whom could trace their lines to before the founding of Carcino itself. Many powerful names came out of Carcino, including the Assads (whose scion became Lord Tyndal, the Hierophants (wealthy moneylenders), as well as the Giovannis (a powerful religious family)Merchants
A rising merchant class existed outside the standard guilds. These were caravan and coaster operators, and they used Carcino as a destination for their caravan goods. More shops offered a variety of different goods because of this growing group. The most notable of these new merchants was the clan Timbers who established a magical retail organization to supply a wide number of patrons across the globe with specialized items.Maps
