Proudmore
House Proudmore stands as the most prestigious and feared of Gale’s six noble houses, known across Regalia as the Arcane Pinnacle of the kingdom. It is a magocracy, where rulership, citizenship, and social rank are determined by one's arcane aptitude and achievements. While other houses govern by bloodline, trade, or military strength, Proudmore governs through magical excellence, tradition, and power.
Only those who have mastered the arcane arts may hold office, command troops, or represent the house. Even within families, blood means little unless it is bolstered by arcane merit. Magical strength is seen as divine providence, the natural right to lead. Those without it serve—but never rule.
