Noble estate

Wingseat (Villa) Sul Street, Sea Ward

A chest-high stone wall surrounds the Artemel villa, with a tall fence of wrought iron rising another three feet above that, with vines growing up the wall within the compound to entangle the fence and block views from outside.
Artemel Seat: Two stories in height, the Artemel Seat house is the domicile of the patriarch and his family, a tradition that goes back multiple generations. The Seat's only concession to the size of a noble house is in the very large dining hall, with room for dozens of diners, and the lord's table upon a dais overlooking the hall. The rest of the structure has living spaces for the lord and his immediate family: parlors, den, offices, and conservatory on the first floor, kitchens and pantry in the cellars, and a second floor given over solely to housing for the family, with a small collection of guest spaces for their visitors. The Antler House: In many ways, the Antler House is considered more of the Artemel villa, at least by outsiders, for it is this structure that they see the most of. The ground floor is rich with spaces for socializing, on both a small, intimate scale, and in a much larger capacity, with a ballroom that stretches the entire back of the house overlooking the garden. The upper floor (that is not taken up with the upper reaches of the ballroom) has housing for other members of the house, divided mostly into individual chambers. The Antler House does not have a set of basements, nor kitchens: its members are expected to dine in the Seat. Hunter's Respite: A single story building with a bit more utilitarian purpose, the Respite serves two purposes, both imagined to be of utmost relief to those returning from a long hunt. The Respite holds the villa's stables, with household mounts cared for here, and the house's carriages stored in a space down the middle of the building. On the other side of the carriage-way is a large set of baths. Most of the House bathes here (save the servants, who have a baths in the cellar of the Servant Quarters). It is tradition that those returning from abroad – not just hunting, but any distant travel – do not dare to enter any other part of the villa before they have cared for their mount and scrubbed the road from their bodies. Heir's Hall: By tradition, an heir of legal age is given the lush apartment suite on the second floor of this building. The heir is made master of this structure, able to extend invitations to others of the family to take up rooms here. The rooms here are a bit more lavish than those in the Antler or Hardride Houses, so the jockeying to win the heir's favor is notable. Generally speaking, most heirs invite those of their generation who share the same interests. Taldiruth has taken great delight in denying his old tormentors this favor, while giving others (like Buildon) all the space they like. He has set aside rooms for his mother, hoping she will join him there, but she has thus far demurred. The first floor has garden-facing apartments, and a modest party hall, with an attached kitchens mostly used for party foods and the like. The upper floor is usually considered the heir's domicile entire, with apartments he may hand out to his favorites. Hardride House: Two stories in height, Hardride House is traditionally the place where older and infirm members of the House are given residences. There is a residence for a physician, although there hasn't been call to have one on hand in many years so far. The apartments here are comfortable, well-suited for those with a life's worth of aches and pains, or even the limitations that a hunter's life can inflict on Artemel scions. Servant Quarters: A dignified and comfortable space, the Servant Quarters is two stories, mostly divided into living spaces, with several work areas for sewing, baking, laundry, and the like.

Interests Trade & Interests: Hunting (boar, monsters), money-lending Holdings: Waterdeep History Ethnicity: Illuskan Founded: 1233 DR Previous Eras: 1354 DR A family of hunters and money-lenders, the Artemel have always had a reputation as being somewhat...uncivilized. They seem to take great delight in less-than-polished manners, and often seem contemptuous of Waterdhavian social mores. In all honesty, there are only two things that have kept them from being outright pariahs: their willingness to lend some of their ample money to their peers, and their reputation as ferocious, vibrant lovers.
