Mahaan houses

The Mahann houses are the nobility of the Oderan Wilds that oversee and manage the region. They are centralized in Jrusar, with upper members of the Mahaan living in the Aerie Spire, but they are present in other cities in the Wilds. There are dozens of houses, including House Lumas, and a smaller number are members of the anonymous Chandei Quorum.

Ariks Eshteross believes that some in the Mahaan houses are doing as much they can to protect the people of Jrusar but others are "insidious" in their pursuit of power and abuse it. The houses are often targeted by the Hubatt Corsairs, who seek to expose the identies of the Quorum.
