Throcmeretun Family

Throcmeretun Family

The Throcmeretun Family hails from Atamara, with origins in Strombran, the capital of Carelia. The family has no fame as of yet, seeing as how they have recently made themselves known in the world of Atamara.

Levi

Levi is the eldest son of the noble family and a very young knight of the region of Dontow in Carelia. As such, his liege is his Ugo, the current Count of Dontow. He is also a proud member of the ranks of the Defenders of Carelia. He is intensely patriotic for such a young man and a fearless leader of his men. In times of peace, he yearns for battle, and when war is called for, no happier Carelian can be found. The men of his troop affectionately call themselves "Throc's Rocks" and serve him loyally and well.

Although a warrior at heart, Levi is not completely closed off to the idea of entering into an alternate career, such as politics or priesthood. However, he is satisfied with his current standing in the realm and seeks to gain more honor and prestige with each battle.

Eduard

As a young child, Eduard's interest had always been piqued by winged creatures and their physical properties. Because of this innate obsession, as the boy grew into a man, he naturally preferred studying archery techniques to infantry techniques. A brilliant lad, he became able to predict within a few inches where a fired arrow would land based on weather conditions and other such factors at as young an age as eleven. His elders recognized this to be a great advantage and began training him to be a great leader of archers.

Eduard is the cousin of Levi (his father's brother's son) and his elder by about two and a half years. However, after a bitter altercation with his cousin, Eduard determined that he had to get out of Carelia and away from Levi before anything irrevocable happened. Thus he moved to the region of Icegate in the frozen north of Atamara, where he recruited his first set of warriors, calling them Nocturnal Contagion. This name was destined to stick to all troops Eduard would command from that day forward.

After tragically losing all of his men in a great battle in Cheltenborne, yet surviving himself, Eduard declared himself a hero. He holds as few ties and loyalties as possible and prefers to be left to himself. Because of this belief, he refuses to pledge himself to any liege, but despite it, he is a member of the guild of the Warriors of Valhalla.

Goronwy

Goronwy is the half brother of Levi through their mother. He was born before the marriage of Levi's father and mother. The father of Goronwy is unknown to all except his mother; all that is known about the cad is that he abandoned Goronwy's mother soon after her pregnancy. The family has not attempted to learn anything further concerning his name or whereabouts.

In order to keep the family name honorable in the public eye, Goronwy was shunned from any inheritance or nobility and was thus forced into the life of an adventurer. The last contact he had with his family was in the financing of his voyage to Beluaterra by his mother.
