Hearth & Herald¶
Turn your Bannerlord clan into a real institution: build your retinue from the field, seat a Clan Home, staff five herald offices, and run recruitment, careers, family, and intrigue through your own household.

The two pillars¶
Heralds - the governance layer. Once your clan owns a town or castle, it becomes your Clan Home, a Master Herald takes up residence, and you can appoint specialists to four offices (Exchequer, Watch, Muster, Arms) that deliver clan-wide bonuses, warnings, and actions.
Households - the people layer. Ennoble proven veterans into companions, grant them commissions (Marshal, Castellan, Caravan Master), recruit commoners and converted prisoners, and manage romance, marriage, mentoring, and heirs.
