Fowl Family
The Family History
The Fowl Family hailed from the Far East continent. The family estate is located in the region of Osaliel in the realm of Soliferum. The original family consisted of Fernando(M), Claudia(F), Hector(M), Jorge(M), Artemis(M), and Maria(F).
Fernando and Claudia were the parents and the rulers of the Fowl Estate in Osaliel. The children were, in order from oldest to youngest, Hector, Jorge, Artemis, and lastly Maria. Hector and Jorge were in fact twins, being only 9 months older than Artemis and Maria being two years younger than Artemis. Recently, Maria gave birth to a child named Javier(M).
Artemis began his career on Atamara in the Ash Sea Islands, left for a short time after being kidnapped, and then returned thereunto. Jorge began his career on the Far East Continent in Sartania, however he was recently exiled and returned home with his parents in Soliferum. Hector never left Osaliel and became Minister of Defense, defending Soliferum whenever called upon.
A wedding between a Fowl son and the daughter of a neighboring noble was scheduled to increase the land of the Fowl Estate to include a new forest and an outpost on the far side of the forest. However, with the disappearances, the plans have been nullified.
Extended History
The Fowl line traces its ancestory back through seven generations to the House of Fralon. The Lord Fralon seven generations ago had three sons, and each wanted an inheritance. So, his lands were divided amongst them, and two adopted new surnames and sigils. Of course, one took the name Fowl and the sword-bearing hawk as his sigil, and another took the name Grey and his sigil was a black dagger on a grey flag. The oldest son was allowed to maintain the name Fralon and the time honored wild man sigil.
The brother who kept the name Fralon bore only one son in his many years, and this son loved the company of men more so than that of women. The fates sealed the seed of the Fralon line with this heirless lord. After the Fralon line ended, the estate was left to ruin, as the final Fralon had gambled away all of the precious heirlooms and all that remained was an empty manor house with a few towers in ill repair to protect it.
The Grey line moved away after the fall of the line of Fralon, and entrusted their estate to the capable hands of the Fowls. For four generations, the Fowls have watched over both their estate in Osaliel as well as the Grey estate in Azohib. Now, with all of the Fowl line missing, the Grey's have reemerged and are reclaiming their halls and maintaining those of the Fowls.
Uniform
The Fowl Family dress uniform worn on all formal occasions including any full family dinner consists of midnight blue pants, with a scarlet stripe; boots that are shined to a mirror finish; a black shirt pressed flat; and an overcoat that is a brilliant shade of blue. Upon the left breast of the overcoat rests the family crest, a black shield with a sword in the talons of a hawk. To top off the uniform is a leather head covering with a hawk's feather swept over the right ear.
