Dunwichian Nobility

There are dozens of noble families in Dunwichia. Most of them live within the city-states, but some rule over the oases, nomadic tribes in the vast deserts between the cities, or even the Gem Islands .
Most of these families can trace their history back to the various ships that wrecked along the shores of Dunwichia, claiming that their forefathers were either captains, officers, or passengers of noble birth from their long-forgotten homelands.
