House of Parrigan



House Parrigan outwardly functions as a minor noble house with attachments of scholars and armsmen who work for the good of the household.

Within the household, however, is a sect of those who work to further the safety of the Alliance, the means by which they do so being widely unapproved as often as it is approved by the rest of the alliance as a whole, including assassination, blackmail, and coercion.

History
House Parrigan was founded by Kane Lightseer when he inherited his grandfather's wealth and all of his belongings because he passed away. Kane heard about his inheritance and immediately claimed everything given to him and began to find notes and papers about a hidden organization that worked for the Alliance. Within weeks, Kane was down to the bottom of it. He searched and searched for the lands that he was given, until he found their homestead in the Uplands. The house was filled with much equipment used for stealthy operations and undercover tasks that should never be brought up again. Soon after getting acquainted, Kane ventured out into Stormwind City to rebuild the organization that his grandfather once ran. This household soon became home to many different types of folk in the city.



Divisions
The House is divided into three major divisions.

The first division are the Scholars, consisting of the Nobles and Scholars of the House, led by Meynara Lowsley. Those who are given the designation of Noble are the equivalent of a higher ranking member who is a Scholar.

The second division are the Armsmen, consisting of the Elite and Armsmen, led by Merales Fordren. As with the Nobles and Scholars, the Elite are basically higher ranking Armsmen.

The third division are the Clippers, who report directly to Ace Lightseer Parrigan.

Ranks
Lord of the House: Lord Kane Parrigan, the only Lord of the House. This rank claims leadership and command over the house. (Currently, Jason “Ace” Lightseer Parrigan is acting in his stead.)

At any given time there will only be two, and they will work under the Lord's decisions and help him decide about what events to take actions in. They will decide everything that happens within the house when the Lord is busy.

They are aspiring to become a part of the House Council, yet they are still in training to become so. The Elite are one of the leaders of the armsmen, this rank is earned by hard dedication to the Lord and the tasks they are assigned. It takes quality work and hard time to earn this rank.

Typically they handle the more dirty aspects of what the House does.

They are the front-line of the House, much like a small militia, rather than a full blown military regiment.
