In Sundaril, Queen Sibeal Seraphin has taken her throne and begun her reign. Across the sea, King Callan Howard has done the same. The reign of the two monarchs has just begun but will they be the start of a golden era or a reign of terror?

The House of Seraphin has been ruling Sundaril since 943 C.E. The Seraphins of the present are descended from Duke Luke Seraphin and his wife Lady Isabella Gavlin. They are characterized by their black hair, dark blue eyes, and pale skin. Their motto is "Stability in Heaven."

the Lesser Royal House of Seraphin
The Lesser Royal House of Seraphin is a direct branch of the Seraphins since the only person within the house is the brother of the king and a Sundrili prince. He was given the land known as the Teeth in the spring of 1031 for military valor and loyalty to the Sovereign. He also gained the right to marry whoever he chose and picked the last of the Havarilli line: Anne Havarilli.
After defying and humiliating her husband in public, she holds all the power in her otherwise loveless marriage.

the Noble House of Redalan
The House of Redalan is the youngest and their duchy was passed to them from the Seraphins once they achieved the throne. Before they were dukes and duchesses, the Redalan house was one of knights. Since becoming dukes through loyalty and valor in battle, they have found themselves in a rift with the Lesser House of Severalli, primarily because of a broken betrothal and humiliation. Their motto is, "Always Rising."

the Noble House of Istatio
The House of Istatio rose to power during the reign of King Talan Seraphin, rising in rank from originally being a county to now a rather moderate sized duchy. Many claim that the grandfather of the current Duke Lysander only gained his title due to favoritism, but the house has thrived for the past two generations producing valiant knights in the past as well. Their motto is "Righteousness before Justice."

the Noble House of Moranin
The House of Moranin had fallen on hard times after their two eldest daughters, Cecilie and Lucilla, dared to commit the highest mark of treason against the crown. After such scandal, betrothals have been broken and their House is largely seen as the worst to associate with despite it's age. Recently, with the acquiring of the estate by Helen Moranin, the relationship between the Moranins and the Worthingtons has nearly come to blows. Ironically, their motto is, "With Glory and Faith."
Countess Helen Moranin

Countess of Mora; continues to send her bastard children to convents and churches so that no one will find out about them.
the Noble House of Lonsigh
The House of Lonsigh is more south than the Northern lands, effectively making them part of the North to most of the southern Sundrili and part of the south to the people of the North. Nevertheless, this family is still secretly carries on their pagan religious practices. Their family recently rose to higher glory when the sister of the Viscount became the mistress of the king long enough to bear him a son. Their motto is, "Always Ascending."

the Noble House of Mordonne
The House of Mordonne is a small one, having been plagued with barren women and infertile men for generations. The Marquess was lucky to have two sons rather than none for all that his wife was from the lovely House of Havarilli. Still, a secret lurks within this house that could threaten Sundaril once more from within and knock the Seraphins from their tightly clenched throne. Their motto is: "Ab Inito Ad Victoriam" or, literally: "From beginning to victory" showing their desire to see things through. The last three Marquesses died tragically: consumption, murder, and alcohol poisoning This has left the estate in the hands of the son of the late Princess Aoife.
Marquess Rian Mordonne
FIFTEEN • PLAYER'S CHOICE • SUBPLOT: NONE
Son of Princess Aoife, illegitimate but status has since changed by royal decree; betrothed to Corrine Severalli as an insult to his status.
the Noble House of Gavlin
The Gavlin Family is one of the oldest and more influential of the noble families. No doubt one family that has certainly spread into royal families by sheer idealism and their ability to spot a good cause to support, the Gavlins have lent their daughters to such notable families as the Moreaus and the Seraphins. In fact, Isabella Seraphin, the mother of the first Seraphin king as well as the mother to a queen of Farengalia, was a Gavlin. Also, Lady Capella Severalli, mother of the current Duke Severalli, was a Gavlin as well, and Charles' older sister. Their motto is "To Heaven and Further."
Married three years ago, but still feels nothing but faint disconnect from her husband.
the Noble House of Pewter
The Pewters have had a slow and steady climb to the Marquis they now hold. Many of the Pewters of the past have held positions close to the Kings and Royal Family, offering their fair and just advice. The current Marquess, Nicholas, remarried after his wife's tragic death to a Listonese woman named Augustine, once the Duchess Greystone . Born the second son in this generation, his brother and sister in law were killed in a fire, leaving him in charge of his niece, who he then pawned off to the king as a mistress for favor. Their motto is "Steady and True."
The Staffords have ever found themselves in an awkward position after coming into their noble wings after the Lion Wars. The first betrothal around went horrendous, with Emilia leaving her groom at the altar. The second betrothal ended in a wedding to the king's ex mistress at the behest of the king. The fact that the wedding was conducted with a pregnant bride was not something the groom was pleased about. Recently, Robert has been finding his faith to be causing issues in his marriage in more ways than one. Their motto is "Ever Strong, Ever Pure."
The bastard daughter of Aldrin Seraphin and Penelope Stafford.

The Worthingtons are another new family, though they quickly tied themselves to one of the elder families (the Moranins) via marriage. Despite this tie, the verbal battles between the Moranins and the Worthingtons are starting to threaten all manner of peace between the nobility and the king might soon have to do something about it. Their motto is "With Peace and Faith."

The Hamiltons, though run officially by Baron Eamonn, are actually controlled more by his mother, Lady Grace. Much like the Worthingtons, there is a massive amount of sibling rivalry and mutual dislike between Lady Grace and the Countess of Lira. Whether this rivalry will do much like the Worthingtons and the Moranins has yet to be seen. Their motto is "Through Patience we are Made Stronger."

the Lesser House of Severalli
The Lesser House of Severalli is composed, thus far, of only four individuals: Aryith Severalli (nee Il'Nanna), Dameon Severalli, and their children. Dameon himself was, prior to his engagement and marriage to Ayrith, the heir to the Severalli duchy. However, upon deciding that he would rather marry Aryith, the King's Fool and a newly made Baroness, instead of Katherine Redalan, the only sister of the Duke of Namaril and an outstanding noblewoman, Dameon forsook the duchy and continued with his marriage to Aryith. The result is a current feud between the Lesser House of Severalli and the Noble House of Redalan. Their motto is "Love Conquers All."

Learning the ways of the barony after the death of his father and murder of his mother.
As it stands, the Harpers are considered one of the more favored houses in the Lesser Nobility. Due to Baron Kaleb's aid to the king during his divorce (Kaleb was the one that went to the Pope and petitioned His Holiness for it), the King rewarded his faithful servant with a barony and promises of more if Kaleb continued to prove his loyalty. However, in the process, Kaleb had to marry Rosalie Harper, whom he had slept with on numerous occasions and was discovered by the king with. Their motto is, "Through It All."

the Noble House of Tully
The House of Tully is so new that most noble houses sometimes forget they exist. Their title was gained after Baron Tully's actions during the Battle for Ophelia in 1033 in Liston for the Sundrili army. However, the Tully's have come across hard times as they are unsure how to make money with their lands. Their new motto is, "To Fight and to Serve Forever."

the Noble House of Patrick
Sadly the House of Patrick has fallen on harder times recently. Though the house has been blessed with a wealth of sons, the current Baron has proved himself to be paranoid and cruel. His mother mourns deeply his father's untimely, tragic demise in a joust. Furthermore, his younger brothers cringe and aspire to higher things but are unsure how to reach them. Their motto is, "All Things are Golden."
Dowager Baroness Nora Patrick
THIRTY-THREE • CLAIRE DANES • SUBPLOT: NONE
Her husband was killed in a joust, nonetheless she has always considered her sons to be the lights of her life.
