House Corren

"Together through life and death" - Motto of House CorrenHouse Corren is one of the most wealthy houses in Aria, and among the top 30 on Galaea. It has 24 known members, all of whom are pure blooded firaxi.
While the house itself is opulent, with scores of lowborn serfs and immaculate residences, House Corren gained its fame through the humble art of tailoring. Because of its wealth of both animal and vegetable matter, Aria was the perfect place to begin a tailoring business, and House Corren did just that some 600 years ago. 
Now more into big business and factory management, House Corren has moved away from its hand-sewing roots, but is still well known in the fashion industry.
== Fashion Shows ==
During House Corren's famous fashion shows, lowborn serfs decorated with tattoos of the crest, patterns, and colours of House Corren are paraded through the great halls of the Corren estate wearing the latest in Galaean fashion for days on end.
It is not unknown for these serfs to go missing on these nights, carried out in the arms of drunk highborn dukes, but in these cases they are usually returned. 
Despite the enormous fortune spent on these shows, excessive revenue is always generated, and House Corren's profits increase for months to come.
== Acclaim ==
House Corren has been lauded for its successful business ventures and humane treatment of factory workers, receiving the Arian Business House of the Year award 39 of the 80 years since the award was founded.
Despite minor controversy, House Corren's lowborn are noticeably healthy and positive about their house, praising its good people and fair treatment.
== Controversies ==
House Corren's penchant to perform lowborn full body tattooing over a course of 2-3 days non-stop has been condemned as a form of torture by Port Elizabethan activist group Rights of the Many. This group has made calls for the practice to be banned, but no local support has been garnered.
Despite lack of substantial evidence, House Corren has been under scrutiny for illicit non-consensual prostitution on multiple occasions. Nothing has ever been proven, and not a single member of the house, including the supposedly pimped lowborn has confessed to these claims. These allegations have not been investigated due to lack of legal purchase.
==Trivia==
*Lucie was a lowborn serf of House Corren before she was taken from Galaea.
