Quick Start

Guided Founding walks through identity, background, style, strengths, traits, and ambition before the first season begins.

Inheritance Spine

The enduring spine of the house. These inheritances shape nearly every future ruler.

Branches

Where one bloodline begins to take on a nature of its own.

Heirloom Vault

Relics, tokens, and witnesses too weighty to bury are kept here for the bloodline. Spend Heirloom Shards to unlock Signature cards. Signature cards are offered to heirs at succession, with more slots and stronger drafts unlocked deeper in the tree.
