Defense

House Wisent maintains two fortifications in its domain: the ancient Wisenwood Tower, and the newer Pale Tower.

• Wisenwood Tower: A small tower originally built along the Kingroad where it met the Wolfswood south of Castle Cerwyn, Wisenwood is a very strong and respectable tower-keep now surrounded by the small town of Wisenwood.
• Pale Tower: Built in the time of Maegris Wisent, the Pale Tower is built all of weirwood that retains its gleaming white color to this day. Though the Pale Tower had sinister origins, it is now a favored hunting lodge for the family, situated in the deeps of the Wolfswood as it is. A small hamlet, Palewood, has grown up around the tower there.

Influence

Aside from its Lord Josian Wisent and his Lady Elizabel, the Wisent family consists of their three daughters Kaila (10 pts - eldest girl), Cimbre (5 pts - second girl) and Dania (5 pts - third girl). The family has also recently sent for its estranged uncle, Josian's younger brother XXX (20 pts - male heir).

Land

House Wisent has good lands.

• Wisenwood: A small town built up around Wisenwood Tower, Wisenwood is less than an hour's travel from the Kingsroad. (Plains; Road, Small Town)
• Palewood: A small hamlet made up primarily of foresters and woodland crofters, grown up around the Pale Tower. (Hills; Lightly Wooded, Hamlet)

Power

The military forces House Wisent can call upon are as follows:

• House Blackhorn: A banner house from deeper within the Wolfswood.
• Trained Infantry: The footsoldiers of House Wisent are usually garrisoned in Wisenwood.
• Trained Garrison: Wisenwood maintains a garrison of peacekeeper forces.
• Trained Guerillas: The tradition of the Wisent Wise, forest-men skilled in fighting from treetops in defense of Maegris' Pale Tower continues into the modern day. These days, they aren't bandits and wildlings, but the woods-wise men and women of the Palewood hamlet sworn to help defend their home.

Wealth

House Wisent's investments include:

• Maester Tolbric Storm: Lord Josian, recognizing the limitations of his own governing skills, sent to the Citadel requesting the assistance of a maester.
• The Weeping Gardens of Wisenwood: An extensive set of gardens grown up around the Godswood of Wisenwood.
