In order to try and remove confusion on who is who with titles and what titles are allowed, we only allow Lords or Ladies. A son or daughter of one are called either Nobleman or Noblewoman. These lordships are similar to medieval fiefs. Fiefs or fiefdoms are a plot of land ruled over by a Lord or Lady. They create their own laws for their land however they must obey whatever the King demands - the King is the ultimate authority.
They appoint the Constables to the individual villages that belong to their land. A Constable is like a small mayor of a village. They report back to their Lord/Lady, collect taxes, and enforce the laws granted by the Lord. They aren't nobles and don't have a grand estate, but they own a comfortable Manor House in their village. You would need to decide on who the Constable serves under as well as the name of the village.
To sum it all up - you may think as if the lordships/ladyships are miniature kingdoms ruled over by a High King.
Please remember this when placing your character into the Noble Status. Thank you
