House Jarvis are one of the nine noble houses of the city of Kintargo that composed the once-prominent Court of Coin. During the Kintargan Rebellion, House Jarvis was more loyal to the city of Kintargo than to the Chelaxian crown or House Thrune. House Jarvis' interests are in architecture, building, and trades related to it, including carpentry and stonemasonry.1

Members of House Jarvis often have a particularly sharp eye for concealed architectural features, such as hidden doors.2 The district of Jarvis End was named in honour of House Jarvis due to its work in raising it, and also the districts of Old Kintargo and Redroof above the seasonal flood plain of the Yolubilis River in the early days of Kintargo.34

After the Kintargan Rebellion, House Jarvis participated in the expansion of Kintargo's infrastructure to help accommodate its growth.5
