House Gosnoth

House Gosnoth, the agricultural behemoth of the NCAC, is one of the eleven Great Houses. It is also one of the oldest, preceded by only House Casfath.

History
House gosnoth formed from a group of intermarried ranchers and crynoid farmers. It slowly expanded its influence, out marketing its competetors, when it didn't resort to destruction of their property. This is one of the most closely guarded secrets of House Gosnoth: it has a warrior culture. These fighters are rarely used, but they are some of the best trained Nanosan combat specialists, under orders from the Lord of the House only.

After the Unification War, in which the current Lord of House Gosnoth, Cogosnothti, backed Hvolmesh, Gosnoth food adapter officers became a common sight during the colonization effort. They were charged with keeping the colonists fed, no matter where they were. This they accomplished, with the exception of a horrible debacle on Walvonia. This important possision cemented their place as a Great House.
