1: When speaking the name of a noble of the house, one uses the Genitive form. For example: Zyleena Andromedae is of the House Andromedes
2: The original twelve houses cohabitated on Tion, but during the rise of the Tion Hegemony each claimed a Throneworld. Since they have kept these worlds for the majority of Tion's history, it is prudent to list them here.
3: House Vela's symbology is a reference to the Argo Navis, the original colony ship that bore the Survivors to Tion.
4: Usually portrayed as a marlin or swordfish, because, come on.
Note:
- Cadinth probably deserves to be a throneworld. It was one of the Four Thrones of Cron, after all.
