Background/History:

If you search for the noble crest of House Talonn in Cheliax, you will not find it. According to official records, not only does it not exist, it never did.

Officially, that is.

The truth is it existed for many centuries and was a proud and honorable house. It invested gold and men to battle the worldwound, and that may have been its undoing. When the new order arose in Cheliax, House Talonn had few resources to resist House Thrune.

It tried anyway and failed. For its refusal to bend knee or convert to deviltry, the nobles of the house were hunted, killed when found, and made mockery of under pretense of the worst of lies.

The few of House Talonn who survived fled where they could, and of course, had children, born nobles in exile.

Rutilux was one of these. Little evidence remained of his house ever having existed. Their very surname had been wiped from the ledgers.

That didn't mean they were safe though. The family was caught just past the border of the empire when they were besieged by the soldiers in service to the queen. Had it not been for Soval's timely intervention, the last of the Talonns might have finally passed.

The Ulfen was moved by the family's story and plight. He even helped them retrieve evidence of their heritage by traveling into a dangerous crypt. Rutilux realized that there was only one way for his family to begin to repay the great man. He gave his service to the Kodiakborne, and grew to become a promising young cavalier.

Now, it seems Kordiakborne has dreams of reclaiming his own birthright, and that means House Talonn has, for the first time since Cheliax was damned, found a new liege lord worthy of serving.

Living Family:
Rodus Rutilux Talonn (Father)
Vybelle Avanna Talonn (Mother)
Noeva Talonn (female cousin)
Eustace Talonn (male cousin, squire in training)

Edicts of the Order of the Sword:

The cavalier must show courage in the face of danger, mercy to those who have wronged him, and charity to the poor and the meek. He must be just and honorable at all times and in all things. He must defend his honor and,above all else, the honor of those he serves.
