Faction Ranks

• Favored: Rank 1. You are a favored member of the House. If you are a scion of the House, you have pleased the patriarch sufficiently to gain his notice. If you are an agent or retainer of the House, your efforts to aid the House have gone well-noted. • Lynchpin: Rank 3. You are given a position of some responsibility in the House's operations. If you are a scion of the House, the patriarch considers you one of the favored scions of the House, and consults with you on matters of House importance. If you are an agent or retainer, your contributions and skills in service of the House have won you a position of no small regard and respect in the patriarch's eyes - although that may earn you the jealousy of his blood kin who are less favored than you. • Matriarch/Patriarch: Rank 10. You are the acknowledged and legal head of the household.

• Morilee Sultlue: Consort of House Sultlue (Rank 0) • 26 years. The first child of any Waterdhavian noble family to marry into House Sultlue since their return to Waterdeep, Morilee is a daughter of House Majarra. Though her parents warned her away from "the snake-bloods," she fell head-over-heels in love with the dashing Zeldesker, and soon the two were inseparable. This caused a bit of friction with House Durinbold, whose son Merbar was wooing the lovely Morilee.

Other Lines

Tharmuth Majarra The Aloof Bard • 27 years A bard from a family of bards, Tharmuth is witty and affable, but also tends to be cold and emotionally distant. Unlike any of the others, he doesn't ever get "messy drunk" when partying, but he always knows the best songs and latest trends from far beyond Waterdeep. He is the height of disaffected urbane aloofness, who tolerates light flirting good-naturedly, but becomes very cold and harsh when it goes too far. His fellow Popinjays think it's because he's already in love with someone, possibly even one of them. Or perhaps he's simply entirely uninterested in romantic notions. Direct questions about it only ever earn a roll of the eyes, and a decisive change of subject.

Holdings

• Resources Limit: If necessary, House Majarra could probably generate about 28,000 gp in liquid coin and valuables within a month.

Mirabar

House Majarra owns three small silver mines in the area around Mirabar.

Known Faction Perks

Scions and agents of House Majarra in good standing might receive the following benefits:

• Living Quarters: Rank 1+. Those in good standing with the House are given quarters within the House's Waterdhavian villa appropriate to their role in the House.
• Living Expenses/Salaries: Rank 1+. Those in good standing with the House also receive a stipend of 1gp plus 5sp per day per point of Rank. This is not actual cash, but simply familial credit towards payment of Lifestyle costs. This stacks with the same kind of familial credit received from the Waterdhavian Noble Background (see Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide).
• Business Opportunities: Rank 3+. Lynchpins to the House's operations receive access to a variety of business opportunities within the House's money-making endeavors. This is handled as "Running a Business" in downtime months. This does not incur a business expense, but if too many of the character rolls results that end in a loss of money, he can and will find his Rank in the House reduced.
• Heir or Consort (Title): Rank 3+. The holder of one of the legal titles Heir of House and Consort of House, as recorded with the city of Waterdeep, is entitled to an additional 2gp per day in familial credit, per the "Living Expenses/Salaries" entry above. The heir is also accorded certain privileges within the legal system of Waterdeep, including the ability to speak on behalf of his House in some legal proceedings and the like.
• Wealth of the House: Rank 10. The patriarch of the House is in total control of the House's finances and various holdings, established by the laws of Waterdeep.
