Line 1: Line 1:
Given the neo-feudal nature of Battletech I have decided that it was about time somebody did something properly insane and started writing about the various noble lineages of the inner sphere.
+
Major Project house is an ongoing project to catalog the noble houses of the Inner Sphere as best I can. BattleTech is space feudalism but we do not actually see a lot of it going on beyond the five main houses. I am interested in the various Dukes, Counts and Barons.
  
This page is mostly a place for me to datadump bits I intend to chase down.

Latest revision as of 20:26, 15 May 2024

Major Project house is an ongoing project to catalog the noble houses of the Inner Sphere as best I can. BattleTech is space feudalism but we do not actually see a lot of it going on beyond the five main houses. I am interested in the various Dukes, Counts and Barons.

  • Alister Luvon is an uncle.
  • an uncle to Morgan Kell named Seamus is mentioned as being alive in 3010.[5][6]
  • Arthur Luvon is a cousin.
  • The Kell Hounds p7 states - "When the media showed the brothers Kell as guests at an elegant social event, the public began to wonder whether the mercenaries were, in fact, overpaid. What the critics did not mention was that the party was the centennial birthday celebration for their and Arthur Luvon's grandmother." That's circa 3012.
