House of Carrington

The House of Carrington is one of the oldest houses to date, accurately tracing its lineage all the way back to before 400 P.C. The house traditionally has governed vast areas all throughout the Kingdom of Stromgarde, but its largest and most prominent province is Northpass, an immense forty-thousand acre region located in northern Arathi Highlands. The household is known for producing great admirals, and collectively sixteen men from the House of Carrington have served as admirals in the Stromgarde Navy over the years.

Duchy of Northpass
The Duchy of Northpass is a large region sandwiched in between the hectic fields of the Arathi Highlands and the troll infested Hinterlands. The duchy is comprised of hundreds of small towns and some major cities and military outposts, most prominently;
 * Northpass City: the immense city has a sweltering population of sixteen-thousand people and boasts a standing militia of around sixteen-hundred men. It is located almost centerfold in the duchy, and conducts trade with thousands of faction scattered throughout Azeroth
 * Northpass Manor: equally as immense as the city, the large manor rests square in the center of the city's bustling trading district and contains over four-hundred rooms, ranging from grand courtrooms to small ambassadors' offices.
 * Northpass Fortress: just outside of the city's underlying suburbs lies this immense stronghold, forged by the hardwork of thousands of local peasants. It is the permanent home of around four-thousand soldiers and is the mecca for all military-related activity.
 * Timestill Village: the large village was built dangerously close to the Hinterlands, and so is fortified rather largely due to the various troll assualts over the years. The village is known for its crude architecture and war-like people.
 * Carrington: a small city located in the very southern reaches of Northpass. It has a population of around seven-thousand people and controls a small miltia of around nine-hundred men. It is the earliest built settlement in the duchy.
 * Carrington Castle: the small but fortified castle is a poorly built supposed fortress that acts as the protective military outpost of the region. It is currently commanded by Cassius Carrington, son of the Duke Letholdus Carrington.
 * Letholdus Keep: built in the 400's K.C., the keep's main function is no longer to act as stronghold for soldiers but instead as a beautiful summer home for the House of Carrington and family.
