Haine Family

The Haine family has a long and somewhat questionable history. The current patriarch is R'lyeh Haine. Ever a vigorous man, he is the father of 13 sons and 5 daughters. Ever the honorable man, naturally all of these sons and daughters are from his marriage. The Haine family fortunes were originally from land and resources from their estates. However, having fallen on hard times, the family sought other ways to increase their remaining holdings. Having large amounts of land that had no true value to it, and with war, plague and death spreading across the land, the Haine family turned to burial, internment and cremation. Several of the family were holy people, so all rights could be observed and respected. Using a considerable amount of gold and valuables, the family has created above ground burial vaults and several cavernous underground crypts. And since the burial spaces are rented, the family receives a continual influx of gold in addition to the initial burial fees. As a result of the families current occupation, they have developed and intense respect and reverence for the dead and their rituals.

Even with this cash flow, many of the current children of R'yleh know that their share of their father's wealth, will be insignificant at best, so they have decided to strike out on their own. As of this time, Samuel Haine is the only child who has made it to anyones notice. However, two of his brothers, Samson and Sammael are supposedly out in the world somewhere. Also, 4 sisters, Samara, Samantha, Samicah and Sampriti have supposedly gone out to make their own way.

(I don't mean to step on the realms toes, but this is a family I have played in other RPG's for years, and so I hoped to bring a couple of them to here. I have toned them down to respect the guidelines and rules of this realm and hope you will enjoy hem as much as I do.)
