The nobles, knights, warriors, and laymen of House Vulparan claim their beginnings with the low-born Daario ''the Wise''. From the two sons of Daario ''the Wise'', House Vulparan splits in geography, personality, and renown into three lines:
  
−
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 (Region)|Giask]], Greybrook nobles are now present in numerous realms across the continents.
+
#Daario ''the Wise'''s heir Felix's eldest son, the renowned politicker Brenneforth whom inherited the vast majority of his father's lands, but whose wealth is rumoured to have long disappeared;
−
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.
+
#Felix's younger son, Darius, to whom his father bequeathed the smallest of holdings in the City of Perdan on the East Continent;
−
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.
+
#Daario's youngest son, Artwyn, and his descendants who, through lack of familial funds stemming from Artwyn's meagre inheritance, have turned to all corners of the oceans seeking glory, wealth, and stability.

Notable traits of the members of House Vulparan include a good training and grounding in military affairs, classical theories of such military strategy, and a general family-wide love of socialising. Nevertheless, as with every family, each member is different in their desires and beliefs but all commit to upholding the family name.

Solomon Greybrook is the leader of family Greybrook. Starting from humble origins in Giask, Solomon obtained a decorated military career in Luria Nova advancing through the ranks facing the rogue hordes as Earl of Dantooine. Believing in the opportunity in the west after Dantooine was over-run, Solomon became Founder, former Stratarch General and Ruler of [[Tol Goldora]]. For the majority of his life in Tol Goldora, Solomon worked tirelessly to ensure that Tol Goldorans returned to the Farrowlands during the continental spanning Gold Sea Conflict. Now with the war's end, Solomon looks to guide the Oligarchy into a new chapter where the realm can thrive.

Well-groomed and taught in pose, Daario of House Vulparan visually embodies the dashing yet serious nature of an ambitious, well-intentioned knight of the realm. In complexion, feature, manners, and voice the knight is commonplace but his gaze is of an unusual intenseness that complements the severity of emotion that oft sits upon his young face.

Seeking spiritual solace in Beluaterra, Ferdinand came to the shores of [[Obia'Syela]] to seek his spiritual purpose in life with the [[Heralds of Obeah]]. Starting from humble beginnings, Ferdinand matured as both a man and spiritually. Rising up through the ranks in the armies of the Theocracy, he earned his positions as Marshal and then Grand Templar through dedication. During his military service, he participated in multiple climatic spiritual and political events such as the Violet Storm. After the assassination of Eva Foote, he was elected as Grand Master of Obia'Syela in particularly troubling times. Ferdinand died at the peak of the war between Obia'Syela and the Novan/Vale alliance at the battle of Glongin. A true martyr for his cause, Ferdinand will never be forgotten.

Chasing the martyrdom of his cousin's demise, Godfrey brought once more family Greybrook to Obia'Syela. Navigating the internal turmoil of the Theocracy in transition, Godfrey attempted to find faith and his path in his cousin's shadow. Alas, with the war against Nova and the sacking of Grehk, Godfrey realised that despite the receiving the region of [[Avengmil]], his place was for now not within Obia'Syela. Godfrey now is trying to find his own path and faith, away from southeastern Beluaterra.

Alexander too wished to break away from the ancestral home and found himself in [[Perleone]]. Making his presence quietly known, he rose through the ranks of the civil service and was granted ambassadorship of Perleone and the city of [[Al Arab]]. Serving the city for years, Alexander grew greatly dissatisfied with the Perleoni Empire and their involvement in the continental war. As a strike of defiance, the former governor defected to the brief realm of Anraheim. Wishing to leave the south, Alexander advised in [[Eponllyn]] as Ambassador and Count of [[Morshes]] for the Phoenix Queen and King Ryndhal. After the King was protested out of office for pursuing peace with the south, Alexander left Eponylln with a heavy guilt. This drove Alexander to give up his worldly possessions and duel Ragnvald de la Fere to prove his innocence. In a spur of luck or undiscovered skill, Alexander killed Ragnvald in a death duel. Finally relieved of his guilty and innocence, Alexander retired back to Dwilight where he now serves Solomon.

Vulparan Family
Fame 26
Wealth 19984
Home Region Perdan
Home World East Continent


The nobles, knights, warriors, and laymen of House Vulparan claim their beginnings with the low-born Daario the Wise. From the two sons of Daario the Wise, House Vulparan splits in geography, personality, and renown into three lines:

  1. Daario the Wise's heir Felix's eldest son, the renowned politicker Brenneforth whom inherited the vast majority of his father's lands, but whose wealth is rumoured to have long disappeared;
  2. Felix's younger son, Darius, to whom his father bequeathed the smallest of holdings in the City of Perdan on the East Continent;
  3. Daario's youngest son, Artwyn, and his descendants who, through lack of familial funds stemming from Artwyn's meagre inheritance, have turned to all corners of the oceans seeking glory, wealth, and stability.

The lineage of Isabelle, daughter of Felix, is only spoken of in the quietest of whispers or written in the smallest margins of the most obscure pages of House Vulparan's genealogy.

Notable traits of the members of House Vulparan include a good training and grounding in military affairs, classical theories of such military strategy, and a general family-wide love of socialising. Nevertheless, as with every family, each member is different in their desires and beliefs but all commit to upholding the family name.

A man is worth only his word; through duty, valour, and wisdom the honour and value of his word may soar.

At a Glance

Well-groomed and taught in pose, Daario of House Vulparan visually embodies the dashing yet serious nature of an ambitious, well-intentioned knight of the realm. In complexion, feature, manners, and voice the knight is commonplace but his gaze is of an unusual intenseness that complements the severity of emotion that oft sits upon his young face.

Sir Daario's athletic figure is typically sheathed in a mesh of plates and a maze of thick, deep brown, gently-worn leather - the garments of a man prepared for combat - with a fur collar hugging his shoulders and neck tightly, especially in the cold winter months that typically permeate this part of the continent.
