The or base azure martlet volant argent heraldry of Greybrook family.

The nobles of family Greybrook claim they come from a long line of seafaring highborn, making their name in variety of professions from military work and politics to be finally awarded with the title of noble family upon the death of Charles Greybrook. With their ancestral home in Giask, Greybrook nobles are now present in numerous realms across the continents. Notable traits of the Greybrook family include a good training and grounding in military affairs, politics, socialising and a desire for unique items - embracing their heritage as traders as collectors of times gone by. Nevertheless, as with every family, each member is different in their desires and beliefs but all commit to upholding the family name. As per tradition, when a noble commits to an continent, their focus is entirely on where they live and the family gives them the autonomy to grow, thrive or wither. For better or for worse, this is the Greybrook way.

Look over the horizon to find your fortune. Whether there is honour, glory or disaster, you will never know until you look.

Continuing his fine work, Cellini was appointed the Duke of Toren Stronghold and founded the Collectors Ritual Hall to support gold distribution.

Douglas Greybrook

A keen admirer of Cellini, Douglas raced to the South Island to continue the Greybrook legacy in Ikalak. Quickly becoming lord of the Cave of Guilt, Douglas hopes to live up to his former idol's expectations.

OCC Notices

Note 1): I play each character as a different branch of the Greybrook family. What this ultimately means is that each character exists in their own continent and cares little for what else goes on beyond that said continent. While they may know of other continents or even other members of family Greybrook, each character's relationships and interactions are based on the relationships they physically form or inherit from IC reasons.

Note 2): Information shared as part of this wiki family is for my own record keeping but for other players to enjoy. I urge the strongest balance of IC and OOC divide when viewing it. My characters may refer to parts of the wiki IC, this makes sense. However, if your character wouldn't know about a event that occurred with that character, please don't abuse it.
