A coalition of the newly rich and powerful.
The Nouveau Riche is a small faction, consisting of the newly rich and powerful. They're a relatively new faction, founded and headed by entrepreneur Hugo Clementine who built up his merchant guild to be the powerhouse it currently is.
This faction consists of merchants, entrepeneurs, entertainers and architects.
They have a reputation for solving all their problems with either money or overt violence, but also for giving a fair chance to talented individuals from lower class backgrounds.
