Soucon Holds

There are some twenty four Holds in the Southern Continent, six of which have Major status, entitling the holders thereof to include 'Lord' or 'Lady' as part of their title and to wear a knot threaded with gold. Minor Holders are referred to as Holder, and wear a single thread of silver in their knots.

The 6 major Holds are Southern, Cove, Seminole, Suweto, Rubicon River and Paradise River. Each minor hold is loosely aligned with one of the six major holds; this does not diminish the autonomy of the Holders within their own holds, nor their voice within the Conclave.

SouCon currently has one Hold that is open for residency, Seminole Hold. However, the Southern Continent has another eighteen holds, which are currently NPC. This means that they exist for background and roleplaying purposes, but the areas are not built. If you wish to play a character from one of these holds, you need do nothing more than create your character. The exception to this is if you wish to play a member of the Lord and Lady Holder's family, or the Holder's family. In those circumstances you need to mail the Hold Wizard for permission.
