Claudia of Pithia

Lady Claudia of Pithia was a Pithian noblewoman from the early century, she is popular for hosting Duchess Aurora Korlat at her hall where a huge women's court was hosted.
Claudia strongly supported the abolishment of the right of a husband which was a practice that permitted men to select any man to bed his bride before he does.
She and Aurora were close at some point, Claudia's exact origins are unknown so it is likely her house is extinct.
== History ==
At Pithia, Aurora was hosted by Lady Claudia of Pithia. She held a women's court at Lady Claudia's hall, where two hundred women laid their grievances before her. A tourney was held in her honor, and Aurora's sworn sword sparred with a woman during the event, much to the approval of the Pithians.
During her time in Pithia, she had heard tales from women during her women's courts concerning the right of the husband, and the horrifying experience it was for the women who suffered through it (this practice included the right of the husband to pick at least three men to bed his bride before he does). During the council session hosted at the behest of Duchess Aurora, with the help of Osmund, she convinced the lords of Pithia and their counselors, to abolish this practice and outlaw it throughout Pithia.
