Regarding Identity..
Surrounding the Cavaal Family is the Court of Plenty. A combination of a warrior-scholar's society and a unit of Household Staff; the Court of Plenty is a gathering focused upon the accrual of information, be that in martial prowess, intellectual dominance, or talent in artisanal fields. As such, each member of the Court of Plenty is tasked with bringing scholars and experts in their respective fields into the Court to share their knowledge, so that all may improve themselves.

Regarding Purpose..
The Court of Plenty is as much a Warrior-Scholar's guild as it is a Noble's Court, with duties focused on attending to the intellectual and physical needs of the House it serves, but also on developing and expanding the expertise of those who partake in its duties. Members of the Court are paid for their duty, but also to advance each other's knowledge, cooperation is greatly encouraged and favoured.

Beyond this basic level of cooperation, members of the court are encouraged to work under their respective Advisors to excel in their own regards, and to fulfil the specific tasks given to them by members of the House.

Regarding History..
Established due to the recent inheritance of titleage of Meriya Cavaal on the 22nd of June, 311AC, the Court of Plenty lacks any notable history of its own, as the previous titleholder; Ilyathiel Cavaal Bel-Velincara, retained much of their personal Court, with none of the roles inherited by the new Countess Halvei. As such, this Court is a newly formed one, and will start piecing itself together as time goes on.

Regarding Application..
Recruitment is almost always open, but it's handled IC. Arrange a meeting with me via DMs (stellarrix), or with any of the respective Court Advisors if it's for a particular role.

Elsewise, drop your discord tag, character application, and desired role in this thread, and I'll contact you to save you the terror of DMing.
