The Daleborn family are a Caligan noble house that have ancient roots in the region of Dale.
History
Origins
Family archivists speculate that before the creation of concepts of nobility, when the East Continent was populated by warlords fighting for every scrap of land, every sheep and cow and hiding from monsters and the dead at night, House Daleborn was little more than a tribe of nomads numbering roughly 70 in the region of Dale. This tribe (reffered to as the Dalemen from here on) had mastered the arts of alcohol making and horseback warfare.
Diaspora
The Dalemen were soon driven from Dale by several warlords seeking to claim the region for themselves and increase the morale of troops by supplying them with beer. The resulting battle pitted three warlords against each other with the Dalemen in the middle. This ended in about half of the Dalemen being slaughtered, including women and children, and the art of alcohol brewing being released almost all over the continent a few years later.
The survivors fled the region, travelling to what is now Ashforth. When they arrived, all of the tribe's remaining children were captured by the most powerful warlord. He promised to release the children in exchange for the secret of alcohol brewing. After the deal was signed, the Dalemen fled north, in the direction of Braga, where they intended to settle.
Survival
The Dalemen, however, were unprepared for the harshness of the forest. The region was a lair of direwolves, werewolves, orcs and wyverns barely held at bay by Sirionite Elves. The Elves took pity on the Dalemen plight, and offered them shelter in the Elven encampments in exchange for aid holding back the monsters. It is there that they learned to use armour, bows and swords.
The Dalemen resided there for 50 years, just as the human warlords were forming realms. The residence ended when the younger generations grew restless with the unchanged Elves. After a few scuffles, the Dalemen parted with the Elves on murky terms, the Elves told the Dalemen of Aestus.
They moved through the monster-infested forest with great casualties, only 10 Dalemen remained. This did not dampen their spirits as they neared the Fens. When they arrived, they quickly asserted authority of the natives with their Elven skills and equipment. This unknowingly ended an uprising and in thanks, the ruler of Aestus made them minor nobility.
Ennoblement
The Dalemen needed reform. They were no longer a tribe and they had serfs to control but they wanted to show their ancient heritage. So, after much deliberation, House Daleborn was forged. A Head Archivist was appointed from a group of scholars living in the fens, who recorded the House's history. This account, however, has been edited, added to and even had sections removed over the years, resulting in a rocky account.
