House Courtenay

House Courtenay is one of the nine noble houses of Aramore. As the oldest and most powerful of the merchant families in the city (and possibly all of Luria), they ensure the economic prosperity of Aramore. They also own the city's money lender and bank.
Their house crest depicts a white dove with spread wings over a countercharged laurel wreath, flanked by silver scales, on a red and white field.

Branch Houses

Goldmeadow Estate

Goldmeadow Estate is the manor of House Courtenay, located on Thraelin Court's main street. It is tall, standing four stories high, and is the only building in the area with a real yard. The noble family of House Courtenay display their wealth through the expensive but tasteful accoutrements which adorn their home. The columns on its front facade are carved in the shape of winged celestials, and its wide windows are ablaze with the color of fresh flowers even in the dead of winter. Long, bright tapestries hang from the balconies, displaying the house crest for all to see.

Note: The titles and names of the Kingdom of Luria are often derived from what little memory the humans of Thesilae have of their ancient languages. Thus there is a mixture of English, French, and Scots words used, some of which have been unknowingly mistranslated by Lurians.
