The ancestral home of the Haerthorne family lies along the backs of the river Remtonas, their ancestors having resided there far back into distant obscurity. In recent years the family has come into enough wealth and honour to support several of their most highly regarded son's into the greater span of things.

The family home is in Remton, the capital of Arcaea.

Aerywyn Haerthorne

Aerywyn Haerthorne
Status: Alive
Class Cavalier
Realm/Island: Arcaea, Far East
Title: Imperial Chancellor of Arcaea
Former realms: Arcaea, Thalmarkin
Former titles: Lord of Oepiud
Artist's rendition of the Chancellor.

Tall and comely, Aerywyn holds himself with easy grace and relaxed nobility, his cerulean blue eyes reflecting the beauty of the sea underneath the long, dark brown waves of hair. A bit on the skinny side when considering most warriors, Aerywyn's lithe and athletic physique belies the wiry, almost animalistic strength in his body.

The eldest brother of Aeriel and the deceased Tirilyn, Aerywyn is the dreamer of the Haerthorne family. A poet, a gentleman and a scholar, yet he takes pride in his skills as a noble warrior. Often impulsive, and a bit of a romantic, he is one of springs melancholy children. Also, to his annoyance, he has often been mistaken for a woman ((OOC: this actually happens a fair bit in game)).

Celyn Haerthorne

Celyn Haerthorne

Class Hero
Realm/Island: Shadovar, Dwilight
Title: Chief Strategist, and Marshal of the Dragons of Shadovar
Former realms: Pian en Luries, Falasan, Minas Ithil
Former titles: Knight of Poryatu

Celyn took after his cousin Tirilyn in personality, yet is more apt to logic and sombreness than bear hugs and ale. Ironically found himself in the realm his brother once fought agaisnt. As a youth he fought across from Minas Ithil to Falasan in Atamara, gaining a good reputation with the sword. He journeyed to the distant lands of Dwilight and Pian en Luries, where at the tender age of 20 he came runner up in the first tournament on the continent.

After a secession and a series of rebellions within Pian en Luries, Celyn found himself standing with the rebels time and time again, until they decided finally to leave their Lurian heartland for wilder lands in the west. Unfortunately, the monster hordes rallied in far greater numbers than ever before to besiege the fortresses of humanity, and thus the Lurian colonists found themselves helping the dying realm of Shadovar survive. Much time went by, and both the colonists and the Shadovarians suffered, their fortunes lost. It was then, after all that had been done for them, that the Dictator of Shadovar, Edelstein Greneburie, banished without a trial the leader of the colonists, Lady Katyanna Ogren, for having been seen in the company of dissenters in the underground.

The confusion that followed after involved bungled political maneuvering by both sides, and the colonists, along with a number of angry Shadovarians, very soon took up arms in rebellion agaisnt Edelstein's paranoid rule. As a result, the Lurian colonists who orchestrated the rebellion took over as rulers. Celyn became the General, and using the personal fortune he had built up from the dangers of treasure hunting, formed a new army and funded the first of many projects in rebuilding Shadovar. With no chance of leaving to form their colony, Celyn decided to invest his fortunes and his efforts in the tiny island nation. He had just reached his twenty-fourth year of age.

Aeriel Haerthorne

Aeriel Haerthorne
Status: Alive
Class Infiltrator
Realm/Island: Arcaea, Far East
Title: Knight of Sasat
Former realms: Arcaea
Former titles: Knight of Remton

The youngest sister, if Aerywyn is the heart then she is the soul. Though still a girl she has suprisingly proven herself in battle time and time again, yet her character does not reflect that. For the measure of Haerthorne passion in her she is rather quiet by the familial standards, and not so melancholic.
