Editing Scrollhammer: Warriors of Elsweyr (section)

====Noble====

The Nobles of Elsweyr are the politicians, diplomats, and leaders of the southern Khajiit cities.  Nobles are not necessarily born to nobility, as it is more of a honorary title for a financially and politically powerful Khajiit.  The paths to wealth are many in Elsweyr- trading, fighting, or even smuggling goods.  Because they frequently have questionably legal methods of financial backing, these 'noble' are all-to-often targets of backstabbing and power attempts by rivals.
Still, the common Khajiit look up to these men and women, to a degree.  For they too were once part of the common rabble, only to claw their way up onto the top of the heap.  It is only fitting that these opportunistic scoundrels form the high ranks of the Khajiit.
