House Jorasco
What’s the price of a life? Well, I’ve got a rate sheet right over here. I’d be happy to discuss it.House Jorasco is a halfling dragonmarked house throughout Khorvaire, although their house enclave is located in Karrnath though the mark originated among the nomadic tribes on the Talenta Plains. The guild runs the schools that teach medicine and houses of healing that provide both mundane and magical services. If it could save a life, it’s probably tied to Jorasco… and it will come with a cost.
Mark of Healing
House Jorasco possesses the Mark of Healing. This mark grants various magical benefits that allow its bearers to heal and cure diseases making Jorasco a vital part of the struggles of the Last War and throughout Khorvaire in general.History
The Mark of Healing first appeared among the halflings of the Talenta Plains around 3000 years ago. When Karrn the Conqueror marched southeast, he—and by extension the rest of central Khorvaire—made contact with the Jorasco tribes and the Mark of Healing for the first time. After lengthy negotiations with Karrn’s governors and the barons of the other dragon marked houses, Jorasco became a full-fledged house However, unlike their counterparts in House Ghallanda, the halflings of Jorasco have largely abandoned their nomadic tribal roots and become firmly enmeshed in the culture and society of the five nations.
The Last War
The Last War meant thousands of battlefield wounds and periodic epidemics of disease, and that in turn meant booming business for this halfling house. Its medics were officially noncombatants hired by the armies of the Five Nations during the war, but House Jorasco healers quickly became accustomed to working amid the dangers of the front lines. However, the end of the war may be even more lucrative as the halflings of Jorasco extend ongoing care to those injured or permanently disabled during the war.
