[[folder:In General]]
* BadassFamily: Eventually, between the hired members and good training of the Bannerlord's siblings and children, the clan will become this. Even at the beginning when it's just the Bannerlord and their brother, the two are formidable opponents to the starter bandits.
* BrotherSisterTeam: At the start of the campaign if the Bannerlord is female, she forms this with the Older Brother.
* TheClan: Obviously
* SiblingTeam: The Campaign is about the Bannerlord and the Older Brother (and a bunch of HiredGuns) forming this to deal with the bandits who killed their parents. After dealing with [[StarterVillain Radagos]] however, the Older Brother [[PutOnABus leaves to find the other siblings]], while the Bannerlord begins investigating the plot.
* ThemeNaming: The default names of the initial NPC family members are this. The father will always have a name beginning with "B", the mother will always have a name beginning with "T", the older brother will always have a name beginning with "N" and will usually end with "N" as well, the younger brother's name will begin with "F", and the sister's name will begin with "A."

!!The Conspiracy
The Conspiracy is actually two competing forces formed by members of Neretzes's court. Arzagos, his old bodyguard, wishes to destroy the Empire in retaliation for the destruction of the Palaic people centuries ago, while Istania, Neretzes's unofficial spymaster, wishes to end the civil war and restore the Empire to grandeur. The Conspiracy has its own unique troops, and in the Campaign they will help or hinder the Bannerlord depending on your choices. The Conspiracy does not appear in Sandbox mode.



* GoneHorriblyRight: It can be inferred that the Bannerlord canonically sided with Arzagos and destroyed the Empire - which means that the two are responsible for the situation seen in Warband, where Calradia, without the Empire as a stabilizing influence, is locked in a ForeverWar, the Battanians seem to have been largely eliminated as a culture like the Palaics were, and half the people the Warband PC speaks with will be filled an [[WeWantOurJerkBack immense amount of nostalgia]] for the Calradian Empire (with restoring the Empire even being Warband's implied goal).

Istiana was Neretzes's (unofficial) spymaster. After his death she retired to Epicrotea, where she plots to see the Empire restored.

!!Wanderers
Wanderers are figures unattached to any clan who frequent taverns looking for work. They are SpiritualSuccessors to the companions from Warband, but are randomly generated and don't start with premade rivalries or friendships. Once hired they become members of the Playerland Clan.

*TheSpymaster: She was unofficially this for Neretzes and will effectively serve as one for a pro-Imperial Bannerlord.
