Wow, my sincerest thanks for the massive lore drop. This is exactly the kind of information I was looking for.
Perfect, this is exactly the kind of information I needed. Essentially I'm creating a (now defunct) family that falls into this upper caste you just talked about. That was until the head of the family fled Ishgard with Lilith due to the mother's condemnation as a Heretic for practicing dark arts.
The father's decision was based on the fear that if the mother was executed for her practice, him and my character would be next on the gallows (or, at the bottom of Witchdrop.) Is that a lore fitting assumption? Early in the story quests you hear a knight threaten to extend punishment to a Lowborn's family if she continued to be defiant. Is this behavior typical, or was that knight out of line?

There are a great many Noble Houses in Ishgard, and these are those Lowborns who have risen above their station or were just more well off than their fellow man. We do have several Noble Houses in lore: Brillelame, Rougecarpe, Valentione, Dartancours, etc...
But feel free to make your own. These people are still considered Upper class citizens though.Â
