Cadet Branch




Historically, other sons were considered threats to the Integrity of the title and were encouraged to take Clerical orders or join the Army . If they did insist on having a family, they were considered a "cadet" branch of the noble family. Daughters of a noble family were obligated to politically advantageous marriages, sent to Nunneries where they weren't in danger of giving birth to competing Heir s to the title, or were forced into roles as household managers for the reigning family head.
