Earmarks/Observations from outside the Court:

• Denying one's demons apparently pisses them off, because North courtiers are frequently bruised and scarred.
• North courtiers are apparently not just "not living", but might actually be dead. They often smell of dust and ashes.
• North courtiers are tougher than they look.
