You were a person of some significance within a noble court, council, or
beaurocratic organization with political sway. Though you may not have
come from an aristocratic family, your talents got you the position
nonetheless. Perhaps you were in the noble court of Vaelandris, attending
to the Lord of a House, or a functionary of the Galrathian Kingdom, or
maybe even just a hanger-on to a local governor.
