"We are One Systkin; Systkin is Family"
―House Systkin Motto
House Systkin was built on the foundation of respect for all people that are considered family. House members share openly without retribution and work together to make the Trade Federation a better place. When one member falters, the others step forward to build him up. When one member finds success, the others share in her joy.

Synopsis
House Systkin is a noble and honourable institution that was built for individuals who strive towards learning more about trading, investment, profit and mentoring. It is a House that welcomes all who wish to contribute positively to the overall welfare of the family. Members are respectful of the goals and opinions of others, but also offer advice they truly have faith in and provide constructive criticism to help the House grow.
History
House Systkin was founded in more recent years by a diverse group of individuals with a wealth of knowledge, experience and demonstrated leadership. From the start, its founders intended to create an inclusive environment where anyone with a vested interest in the House could join and contribute to the community.
Under the leadership of Tanez Kalrade, the original family founders came together and used their collective experience to develop an establishment they could all find pride in.
The original family founders included:
- Tanez Kalrade
- Otto Kipler
- Shaidar Haran
- Ted Winner
- Flint Talzo
In an often harsh and busy world, the founders of Systkin worked to provide a home to members looking for peace, harmony and a sense of belonging. Although the founders spent a considerable amount of time constructing new ways to make the House a profitable success, their coordinated focus on family never faltered.
The Embassy
The Systkin embassy was built above a city in Kuna’s Eye, far above any noise or disruption. Visitors who wandered its halls often compared it to the peace that might be found in the eye of a storm. To this day, the immaculately maintained grounds provide a serene environment in which members can meet to discuss family affairs.
The mansion is spotless, and the flowing water and waterfalls nearby are often enjoyed by native wildlife and visitors alike. Within the embassy grounds sits a trio of handsomely designed buildings that seem to blend into the atmosphere perfectly. Each has its own use, but each complements the other.

Structure / Organization
Although House Systkin employs a system of ranks, little emphasis is placed on hierarchical differences. Given that the foundation of Systkin is family, ranks were established more to provide structure than to give any one member overwhelming judgement over another.
House Ranks
House ranks, as approved by the original founders, include:
- Konungr – Leader
- Sturaesman – Honorary Title for those proven to have helped the House in ways beyond required
- Hersir – Proven capable of leadership, leaders of the House
- Thegn – Rank and office, officer or captain
- Drengr – Backbone of the skilled workers
- Fri-Hals – Member with minimum skill assessment, but a good worker

Voting
