* CodeOfHonor: The nobles of Manfort abide by a strict one. For instance, an insult can be grounds to fight a duel if the insulted party doesn't get a sufficient apology.
Added DiffLines:
* ProtectiveCharm: Magical wards exist, and have varying strengths. At their weakest, they can compel a person who has a malicious intent to turn away from a protected area (however, this won't stop someone with a strong enough will) while the stronger ones can stop harmful spells within a specified area, but aren't impossible to break. However, if broken the person protected will be alerted so there's forewarning at least.
