Of Rynir Family
The of Rynir Dynasty
The of Rynir family is an old but yet new noble family. They were once a low noble family that kept themselves away from the politics. This was because the Rynirs were a gathering of traders and mercenaries. Only when the Rynir, Koenraad arose, desiring to have his House getting in a better place in the social ranking, others of the same House started to work to gain more political power. Such an example is Gerontis of Rynir.
Thus the rise of power for the Rynirian family began. Both in Galadia[[]] as in Thysan Dwilight. Though both Koenraad as Gerontis began their rise to knight at the same time, the Rynir family has gained more success in the Barcan Republic.
However, even due their progressive nature the Rynirian House looks up to their related Houses. Such examples are those of the Vilnar and the Arescod House. It's rare to see a member of the Rynir family to have some conflict with either of those two noble houses. The Rynir house even has a long record of serving the Arescod family.
The traditions of the Rynir family aren't that many. Most because they are pragmatics, seeing little use in old tradtions. Other than their deep rooted loyalty to their related house. Because of their innovative, most of them have some problems with relgions. The Rynir family does see little use to pray to the Gods or any higher power. After all, they believe mostly that they shouldn't rely too much on that. All they can use on the battlefield or with politics are their own skill and abilities. This causes the members of the Rynir family to be calm and sometimes even cool, but able to judge without any prejudices. Unless the member gained some bad experience, such things will still cloud the member. Only other notable is that the Rynir family has a fierce martial tradition, probably due their longer history of having members that were mercenaries.
Due some inner politics within the Rynir Family, they won't openly state who the current head of the family is. It's widely believed that however the next head of the family is Gerontis of Rynir, a Barcian noble Not to mention that they also have managed to gain a region underneath their control. Though they had their own hereladic, they swaped to the old Eregon's hereladic. Not only to show they are the rulers now of the region, but also as a friendly gesture to the people that are underneath their rule. To make it clear they are there to protect and lead them.
Members of the Rynirian House
Gerontis of Rynir,
Senator of Eregon.
The heir of the Rynirian Family, the young Gerontis is the most successfull member of the family. He has started as a knight underneath his very good friend, maybe his best, Roran of Arescod. As his knight, Gerontis was signed to join the Wardens of Maroccia. Something he first wasn't sure if that was something for him. War was raging and soon his good friend and liege was away to take his unit to the battlefields. A bit bitter, Gerontis went to Rettleville to see his unit to be strong enough, so that he could serve the Wardens at best.
His career with the Wardens has made Gerontis aware of what problems Barca can have. It made him more loyal to the realm, as he wanted to protect it against any internal dangers. And if any invaders would show, he would also be ready for them. After some time, he then ran to become the Lord of Eregon, just after the region was taken over for the glory of Barca. At that time, Gerontis had traveled towards Rettleville to recover from a battle against monster in the region of Nark. His unit had taken the most hits, as they were the first to go head on head with the vile creatures.
As no other knight went for the position, Gerontis was granted to become the next Lord. Knowing what it could mean, as nobody else seemed to want the region, Gerontis didn't care. The hard task to make the region productive was also something that could be used in his advantage. If he would be able to reform the region into a wealthy one, that could be a way to show his worth to the other Senators of Barca. Something he is determinant to show.
