Orphans
- Iskandeans will take in orphans as their own children when they can. Although these foster children do not have the same rights to inheritance as true born children, they are considered in the same light as bastard children.

Inheritance
- The rights of inheritance are restricted to acknowledged children by blood. An orphan may well inherit the property of their dead parents, but would generally be out for inheriting the property of their foster parents. It can be done, but usually only if no remaining legitimate heirs are alive to inherit. Even then a bastard may become acknowledged before the fostered orphan. Their is also no restriction against female heirs inheriting before younger siblings of either sex.
