| − | The '''Court of Oren''' is the standing system of courtiers and councilors that reside within the imperial palace of the Holy Orenian Empire beside the ruling house, currently the House of Novellen. The imperial court is a vital part of Orenian society and has been for centuries, being a hotspot of cultural enterprise and the upkeep of high society. However, it is also a point of great controversy and criticism since the Dawn of Oren as a result of the pomp and exclusivity exuded as a place of strict hierarchy between noble and commoner that is rivaled by little other courts. A strong court has been an integral part of a strong government since the times of the [[Horen Restoration]], when the palace morphed into a center of activity, and a performance of power and unity. Throughout orenian history, there have been countless court reformations, declines, scandals and etc, that have happened in the courts, with more recent periods seeing a stagnancy in the functions of court positions. | + | The '''Court of Oren''' was the standing system of courtiers and councilors that resided within the imperial palace of the Holy Orenian Empire & Orenian Kingdom beside the ruling house, the latest- and final -being the House of Novellen.

| + | [[Category: Oren]] |
| − | The Novellen Palace was... [describe]
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | '''''Governor of the Augustine'''''
| |
| − | The Governor was the head of the Imperial Courts, and served at the discretion of the Crown. They directed the management of the Courts, and assured that the necessary functions of the Imperial Household were executed and held to the highest standard. In the case wherein any of the management positions were not occupied, or were not operating to their full capacity, it was the duty of the Governor to assure these departments were maintained. The Governor also nominated members of the court management to the Emperor, for final approval by His Imperial Majesty.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''''Majordomo of the Augustine'''''
| |
| − | The Majordomo served as a second in command to the Governor and acted in full capacity in the absence of a Governor. They may be assigned to various projects by the Governor or take a more general role within the events of the palace. They assisted the Governor in whatever they may ask, whether it be events or simply management in general.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | === Latter-day Reform; The Augustine Palace ===
| |
| − | The Imperial Augustine Palace was originally constructed by architect [[John-Henry of Pruvia|John Henry, the Prince of Pruvia]], though it often underwent renovations with the interior and exterior, the most popular of which being the installation of a garden by HIH Prince Joseph Leopold. It served as the home of His Imperial Majesty and his family as well as the many noble courtiers he offered housing to. The palace was the crown jewel of Providence. Most importantly within the Augustine was His Majesty’s many courtiers, and staff that kept the palace moving as it always had in allowing for a mark to be made on the Empire as a whole from within the pristine walls of the palace.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In 1837, the roles of the Augustine were outlined in a document approved by HIM John VIII. See: [https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/205389-the-augustine-court/]. These reforms created new roles aside from the Governor and Majordomo, and reorganized the system beneath these two positions:
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''''Lord Seneschal'''''
| |
| − | The Lord Seneschal directed all employees of the Imperial Palace. These laborers may have included servants, butlers, musicians, physicians, etc. They organized and provided services for the Courtiers during both events and daily life. It was the responsibility of the Lord Seneschal to ensure that laborers of their department were trained in both etiquette and efficient service. They were also charged with directing and employing tutors of the courts, and assuring the next generation was properly educated in the legacy, culture, and knowledge of the Empire.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''''Master of the Keys'''''
| |
| − | The Master of the Keys managed the apartments within the Imperial Courts, as well as all the locks within the Palace. He assured that only those most qualified Orenians may have accessed the various parts of the Palace, and maintained a set of standards for those entitled to an apartment.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''''Captain of the Fourth Brigade'''''
| |
| − | The Captain of the Fourth brigade served as the de facto Chief of Security within the Palace, and was appointed at the discretion of the General of the Imperial State Army. He was responsible for assuring the safety of the Courtiers and the Imperial family, as well as organizing security for those highest ranking Orenians during events. In cases wherein the safety of the Courtiers, Orenian Officials, and members of the Imperial family was immediately threatened, the Captain of the Fourth may have assumed executive authority over the Courts, in order to assure their ongoing safety and protection.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''''Director of the Event Committee'''''
| |
| − | The director of the Imperial Event Committee served as the president of the Event Committee. They were in charge of administering and providing resources for state sponsored events both within the courts and throughout the empire. They directed the committee and assured both the economic and cultural growth of the Empire through their events.

| − | | |
| − | * Wilhelmina of Cathalon, the former Empress-to-be as wife to [[John VIII, Holy Orenian Emperor|Prince John Charles]], the Duke of Helena and Furnestock. Divorced and banished.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * [[Amadea of Pompourelia]], the Late Empress-to-be as first wife to [[Prince Philip, Duke of Adria|Prince Philip Aurelian]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | * [[Charlotte of Aldersberg]], an imperial princess and former Crown Princess as second wife to [[Prince Philip, Duke of Adria|Prince Philip Aurelian]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | * [[Anna Henrietta of Provins]], the Former Governor of the Palace.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * [[Mary Casimira of Carrington]], the Former Governor of the Palace.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * [[Maisie of Sunholdt]], a mother-figure to a majority of Augustine youths.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ====Public Perception====
| |
| − | The Augustine Palace was frequently ridiculed by the public as a place of ignorant indulgence by 'impious privileged women and their adulterous cohorts in men'. Its public perception was scandal-ridden, with various women and men once tied to the courts going on to become markers of infidelity and nescience towards the struggles of the lesser advantaged. The most particular case of this ridicule was directed entirely to those who would be known as the close friends of [[Prince Philip, Duke of Adria|Prince Philip Aurelian]]. His first wife, [[Amadea of Pompourelia]], was among the most corrupt, the little audiences she held with commoners often ending on sour notes and with many noting her reckless habits of drinking and consumption of expensive treats, as well as the mollycoddling of their imperial children. His lover, Governor [[Mary Casimira of Carrington]], only exemplified this by revealing her adultery with the Prince, which led to his ultimate death at the hand of her blade. Before this, his second wife, [[Charlotte of Aldersberg]], was whispered to be a nepotist at large, her curation of the Social Season showing extreme preference to singularly her daughters.
