People of import to Jim of the House of Three Crossed Beams

There is some overlap with the NPCs for this one, but these are the folk that seem to have an importance for Jim, be that either in a financial sense or on a more personal level.

Fleurs Nobles:

Eugene Priati - Elf. A man of the cloth, can usually be found leading the Temple of the Lady of the Scales at the Plaza Equines, where the stables for the city guard are also located. Eugene has a reputation for being addled, yet exceedingly kind. 

Salvadore Duree - Human, usually called upon to organize the Moon Revels, a set of soirees that link into the Moon's aspects. From full mystery at a Maschera at the start to the opulent banquet at the end, Salvadore has everything working like clockwork, which has led to the Galettos practically worshipping the ground he walks on.

Hermant Duree - Human, a man of great resource, Hermant has made his fortune through shipping. Now, nearing his fiftieth year, he seeks to find a suitable heir for the naval fleet (12 ships and 2 more to be finished) he has built up.

Sandre Benotti - Half human, half elf, the Lady Sandre is a recognizable individual throughout Vertange, as she runs the Dulce Frustum, a successful chain of specialized candy stores, catering to the rich and extravagant.

Tangui L'Equichant - Dwarf, keeper of the Kennel, the best breeder of his generation. Tangui has an eye for the best characteristics of all manner of animals, which has made him one of the wealthiest individuals in the City. After all, a good watchdog may alert a family of intruders, but the best will bring down the intruders without much trouble. 

Francois Du Treve - Human, said to be the future for house Du Treve when it comes to the courtly matters. Graduated summa cum laude at the Grand University. In spite of this, he is extremely biased in favour of humans and elves, considering most other races to be lesser in both body and mind.

Luna Du Treve - Halfling. Luna is a diligent lawyer, though when there are no cases, she will restlessly examine the bottoms of her glass in the Absconding Dawn.

Robrigo Sombri - Human. Master of the Arx Infractorum, one of the eight Tidal Fortresses that form the outer defenses of Vertange from the sea. 

Lucius Tesodi - Elf. Lucius is almost a synonym for fashion within the higher circles of society. Where he leads, the others follow. Season in, season out, Lucius creates such masterpieces out of fabric that all stand in awe.

Honora Du Calle - Dwarf. The Lady Honora has been in charge of the main prison of Vertange (Saxum Catenatum) for two years and seems to be getting used to the role as director. She needs more allies in order to push through reforms in the Catenatum, but according to her that is only a matter of time.  

Robert Sumquaes - Human, Robert's a frequent traveler to both the upscale salons of the Jardin and the dives in the Area Vulgaris. He is known to be happy to throw his inheritance around, both in coin and more physical endeavors, and his indiscretions have caused his father Iulius Sumquaes many a headache. 

Vulgari:

Calpar - Dwarven wine merchant, came down from near Altharion to make his fortune, currently sitting in the middle of the pack, not earning the best coin, but able to spend a good amount without falling short of cash.

Malin - Dwarven ex-army chronicler, now full-time scholar. In younger days, she seems to have been quite the explorer and inquisitive mind, which has earned her free passage into the Grand Library.

Outsiders:

Beozrik Umbregon - Human leader of the Varangian Guard. Has personally defended the honour of the Emperors Argentonze and Argentize before retiring from active duty to a more ceremonial posting. 

Rusko Rohtzhane - Human from Freicove with a bad temper, membership of the Varangian Guard and connections within the regular guardsmen.

Blandus - Human guard at the Theatre Rouge Dramatique. Strong and capable, Blandus can also be found at the local wrestling pits in the Area Vulgaris.

Gerard Gustafson - Human knight of the Order of the Scorched Oath, always up for a spot of righteousness.

Paul Jones Jr. - A childhood friend, who sits in the Four Roses Consortium as investor.

Charles of the House of the Three Crossed Beams - His father
Felize of the House of the Three Crossed Beams - His mother
