Chamber of Peers

The Chamber of Peers is an advisory council intended to represent the voices of the Twelve Houses and their vassals. Each House sends one representative, called a chamberlain; each vassal family is also entitled to one representative each, who often (but not always) votes with their liege lord. Somewhat like a parliament, motions are raised and voted on. Passed motions are sent to the ruler, but they do not necessarily have more weight than a strongly worded letter. However, the fact that the noble families have decided upon a more-or-less unified message naturally carries weight with the ruler.
The Chamber of Peers is sometimes called the Chamber of Pears and Peaches by those who are unhappy with the nobility. However, actually saying that to a Chamberlain would likely result in disadvantages.
