Scions of House Merytis (MERRY-tiss)

see also House Merytis

Lasten (LAST-en)

• Location: Falasan, Atamara
• Description: A large, red-headed man who was interested since childhood in stories of honour and loyalty. He is devoted to the lord of Chuca and Falasan. He is a leader of soldiers, and outside of war spends his time exhorting his men to greater efforts in their training regime. He is the elder by 43 seconds.
• Works: Lasten's Notes on War

Reilwin (RAIL-win)

• Location: Falasan, Atamara
• Description: He is Lasten's twin, yet appears quite different. With red hair so dark it is almost black, he is of slim build. Highly intelligent and analytical, he alone remained to listen to the tutors while Lasten left early to play "Soldiers and Monsters". He is a perfectionist, and enjoys travelling to tourneys to exhibit his swordsmanship and learn new techniques. Unlike Lasten, his loyalties are not as firmly set in stone. He follows those whom he respects, and will reject those whom he finds to be fools. He is the Head-Editor of the Falasan Inquirer

Proslyn (prahz-LIN)

• Location: Taselak, South-East Island
• Description: He is a cousin of Lasten and Reilwin's, from their father's side of the family. Being a youngest son with little chance of inheritance, he was always more interested in travelling abroad, and finally settled on the South-East Island and swore allegiance to Taselak, where he is learning the elements of war from the skilled strategists and tacticians of Taselak. He is a member of the H.S.G.

Retainers of House Merytis

Rathkanouros Kalantis (WRATH-ka-NOO-rose ka-LAHN-tiss)

• Location: Falasan, Atamara
• Description: Rathkanouros is of House Kalantis, whose members long ago swore fealty to House Merytis. Being too poor to do more than equip the family's warriors with armor and weapons, House Kalantis compensated by training its members to be the most capable captains possible for the units led by the members of House Merytis. Rathkanouros is a grizzled veteran of many of Falasan's wars, and has come out of them with a cynical outlook on other realms. More than cynical, in fact, he often interprets their actions in the most negative way possible. When he finished his term of service, he stayed on as House Merytis' armsmaster, training the recruits of the household's guard...of whose lackwittedness, laziness and feebleness he is constantly lamenting, in spite of his every effort to whip them into shape. He was quite close to Lasten during Lasten's infancy, teaching him the rudiments of strategy and tactics; his main interaction with Reilwin was in the sparring ring. Recently Reilwin approached him to act as a contributing writer to the newborn Falasan Inquirer, which he accepted, lending the weight of his years and experience.
