House Oakenshield
Once the most powerful noble house in Eregoth, House Oakenshield is now extinct. House Oakenshield was lead to its end by Lord Farin, a figure infamous for his widespread use of slaves to further his interests. He was killed by Lord Sozkeden Valkar but had no heir, leading to the end of this noble line.
Structure
The House is ruled by a single Lord, with a primogeniturial line of succession. He is surrounded by a council of lesser nobility and knights that act as his advisors.
Public Agenda
House Oakenshield does not submit willingly to the authority of the King, and spends most of its time attempting to expand their influence and territory.
Assets
The largest land holdings of any noble house in Eregoth, untold numbers of slaves for domestic, economic, and military use, the preferred service of the Silvershields. Beyond that they also have many Houses endebted to them, and use that to wield massive political influence.
