The Cornelii are the remnants of a Teccan noble family. They were one of the richest and most powerful families in the city of Tec, occupying several seats in the Senate. In the aftermath of the Empire's fall, the Cornelii fell out of favor and were exiled to Estia.
They are one of the few families that still carry on the Teccan customs and way of life. They have a manor in Covenant, where they occasionally host parties in the 'old style', with togas and cushions. These parties always attract much attention from nobles and commoners alike.
Their name derives from their ancestor, senatrix Cornelia Braccus, who was one of the most eloquent politicians to ever have graced the floor of the Dragon Curia. Her speeches are still studied at the School of Rhetoric and Oratory to this day.
The Cornelii uses a coat of arms depicts a book and a quill on a light blue field, with a purple bar on top.
