House of le Craint comes from humble origins. The main branch of the family originates from Poryatu with Emyhr le Craint acting as the current head of the family after the death of his father and grandfather. As one of two siblings, competition arose between the two resulting in the separation and disinherited daughter, Mariana, who proceeded to take up a lifestyle as a privateer before settling down in Obia'Syela. The lesser branch, of which are cousins of Emyhr and Mariana, currently has a single person leading them. Mihel le Craint is the first cousin of Emyhr, he is the eldest of that generation however he does not have the power that Emyhr has.

Before the new generation rose to the forefront, Emyhr and Mariana's grandfather Malcome le Craint was the head of the family. Previously he had been the captain of a mercenary company, he found a lot of work within the southern region of Dwilight. After the conflict subsided he took this opportunity to settle down and marry. This led to the birth of Rawlin le Craint, Emyhr and Mariana's Father, who took over the mercenary company. The both of them lived to the riper old age of 60, both dying soon after their 60th birthday. He made a name for the family which led to Emyhr being knighted soon after he took over the mercenary company himself.
