Family history Far far into the past there was a trading family in the land of Moyale. It was a large and prosperous family and one day the clan head invited all its member for a celebration. Every relative of the family came from far flung places for the feast. It was a beautiful day and the tables laden with food stretched from one end of the family manor to the other end. The smell of roast boar, fried deer, fraganted sweet veniian cabbage and other delicious food wafted through the air and the members began to eat. However the smell attracted monsters and they too came to this banquet and dined on the diners. They came on land, in the air and from under the ground. The guards were first followed by the adults then the children. A few were ferreted away to become playthings for the vile monsters. Antria, the daughter of the headswoman, and several servants barricaded themselves in the attic.
However a minor nobleman, Nonbo, out on a hunt passed by the estate and saw the carnage. He and his retainers investigated the manor and happened upon the few lingering monsters within the upper levels of the house. The battle was fierce but the knight and his guards won the day. Eventually the knight and the girl married. Their combined estate and wealth was enormous and created jealousy amongst the trading family and other small noble families. The fortune was whittled away slowly until the family became what it is today.
===Gitami=== The oldest child from Antria's blood line, spent the early years of his youth with his parents on trading missions. Not a glorious life but it kept the family from being bankrupt. Gitami became a priest of Sagmarthaism and has been preaching for the past year. Due to being stabbed by an infiltrator from Itorunt, he has given up this occupation of words for one of iron.
Baron of Bursa (r.2006-05 to ???) A black market scandal in the southwest costed him his lordship, an act which has shamed the traders blood in him forcing him into a life of obscure priesthood until the scandal has been forgotten.
===Wenlu=== Descended from Nonbo's relative. They were against Nonbo marrying a low born but kept silent due to the wealth of Antria's inheritance. Wenlu was raised with noble ideals and resented the influence of Antria's descendants on the Gothic family. He has gone to Atamara to seek glory and fortune in preparation for the day when a true noble would lead the family again.
Count of Alimonne (r.2006-05-16-???)
===Tsuboh=== Like Wenlu, but has a far more brutal ending for Antria's line. His term as Duke has ameliorated his anger while also teaching him finer points of rulership, he'll have Antria's descendant poisoned rather than disemboweled and quartered.
Count of Endelee (r.2006-06 to 2006-10)
Duke of Taselak (r.2006-10 to 2008-02)
===Siry=== A strange woman, ever since she was little she prefer to be in the wilderness than in villages and towns. She had a knack for finding creatures. Where ever they hid, she'd find them, almost as if she's in tune with them. She would have made a great hunter if only the creatures she seeks aren't monsters and undead. She was disowned as her talent made her family uncomfortable, there were and still are whispers Siry hears the voices of the monsters and undead. Locked in a tower in Bursa by Gitami, she somehow escaped and wound up on Beluatarra.
Using her skills at listening in on wild beasts she made a fortune as a creature hunter. She would have been satisfied with this life of harrowing yet comfortable obscurity except for being captured by the demons. Her cell, like many other cells, had a view of the demons' eating area, and the week long marathon of eating adventurers convinced her to elevate and surround herself with armed retainers. Somehow she bribed a demon with gold and escaped from the portal. She offered her service to Hemaglobe Pontifex Bocephus Biggie of Sint, Sint Duke von Mellenthin Spearhawk of Firbalt and Sint Duke Donnuil Stryker of Gethesmene.
Elevated to knighthood (2008-01) she was appointed rulership of Djembe within weeks. Her meteoric rise has left her unpolished; she leaves the etiquette to her scribe and her chamberlain; her penchant for mingling with commoners; and her base methods of mediation by simply knocking heads together, while proven to be the correct tool in bringing the region under control continue to vex her servants.
Countess of Djembe (r.2008-01 to ????)
