Attainder

Attainder is a royal decree made by the King of The North or the Adviser to The King officially denouncing a person or an entire noble house. Such a decree strips the one attainted of all lands, titles and incomes. Attaintment is sometimes accompanied with a death sentence, but that may not always be the case.
== Known cases of attainder ==
* After the Rebel victory in The War of The Bears, King Kaegan III Boyce stripped House Pyke of all their major vassals (House Alder and House Lash) for Lord Hugar's actions against the rebels, notably the extinction of House Pinewood.
* Sir Dontar, a knight of House Pyke, was stripped of his rank and titles as a knight when he became the leader of the outlaw group, the Brotherhood of Wolves, and began the Lakelands Conflict. King Warren I Boyce actioned his attaintment along with sentencing Dontar to death.
