House of Dell
Family Fame of 8 and a total Family Wealth of 1140
The House of Dell is not one of renown or of honour, but in these troubled times has become much more active in, most especially the affairs of her homeland, that of Unagae on the South East Island, and of various other nations across the East Continent, South West, Colonies and the Far East. While most of the surviving members of the Dell Family do not hold prominent positions in any of the governments, and it was thought Xerxes alone would stand as a testament to the indefatigable drive to gain greater authority through service of the Dell Family for, through his service, he had been appointed the Lord of several regions as well as the Marshal of the Army, finally reaching the role of the High Marshal of the Army and now Duke of Taselak, Luyten has also risen to prominence in Ethiala as the Baron of Arempos, a crucial cross-roads region and the richest in the realm. Wenliang has also held the position of Grand Justiciar in the dying days of his beloved Republic of Ikalak. Dash however continues to strive to attain greater feats and will always attempt to improve themselves and inspire others to do the same.
Wenliang
Wenliang's Chinese descent and upbringing after being lost during childhood and taken care of by a Chinese Warrior, have turned him into a man filled with all the instincts and morals of a Chinese Warrior. In accordance with the warrior code of the Chinese, he places Family and Honour above all else, placing the needs of his comrades and family above his own. He believes in honourable combat and has been rewarded for his service and support among his fellow Nobles with the role of Grand Justiciar.
With the eventual demise of his home realm of Ikalak, Wenliang found himself as a man filled with the need to fight on and exact revenge upon those who had desecrated his homeland. Thus, with the loss of his homeland Wenliang set off to join the realm of Taselak, to fight on against the snakes which had destroyed his rightful home.

Dash
Dash's relations to the Dell family are, of course, stronger than that of his brother, having spent his entire life in Dell Manor. However his father, a man whose soul passion was war, brought his son up in the ways of the Warrior, teaching him all the skills required to lead men through example and valour. It was this upbringing which brought him to come to the oldest island, that of the East Continent. A place of which has etched itself into history as being a place of honour, prestige, money, power, war and grudges. A haven for both the unsavoury and the courageous....
After learning of the continental war brewing in the Far East, and the invitation from his brother Luyten to join him in these times of trial, Dash departed from the East Continent to seek his fortunes in the Far East, bringing him to the Antoza Commonwealth, he then moved to Nighthelm.

Xerxes
This man, the youngest of all the Dell sons, has accordingly been influenced by the rest of his brothers. Xerxes is a man, whose passions lie with the arts of war, however in likeness to his elder brother Luyten, he has a firm belief in the powers of the spirits and the angelic beings. Finally, his training by Wenliang has given him a devout fervor towards honourable combat and because of his love and absolute respect for his brother, Xerxes chose to follow his brother down the path of a Hero, so as to be etched into the history books for his heroic deeds....
After becoming increasingly agitated with the deafening silence of the former King of Taselak Syfo-Jaydon, Xerxes rallied those loyal to Taselak and led them in a revolt against the oppressive Monarchy. After overthrowing the government Xerxes then instituted a Republic and proclaimed himself as the inaugural Prime Minister of Taselak. However in the intial diplomatic talks with the realms of Ikalak and Sandalak he failed those Nobles who he had swore to represent and protect and thusly decided that he must pay for his shortcomings.

Luyten
Luyten is a man whose upbringing was very similar to all other sons of the Dell family, however he, unlike his brothers, chose to take the life of a man devoted to the arts of religion. That is what brought him to the fabled Far East and the Theocractic society of Taith Aenil. Their study of angelic beings was always a passion of this bright young man, and upon hearing of this realm, he immediately set off to discover the meanings of these spirits....
After becoming increasing agitated and annoyed at the seemingly indefatigable neutrality of the Taith Aenilians and their close-minded attitude towards foreign affairs, a the angels returned to Luyten in a dream and proclaimed to him a quest which would give him ultimate glory. So, with only a day of decision, Luyten set off to join the realm of Ethiala where he was welcomed with open arms by most Nobles of the realm. He feels more at home in the lands of the Ethialans than he has anywhere else....
