SYLLAR

“Strength is not born by victory, but enduring.”

 

From humble beginnings, the Syllar originate from the subterranean of yore; biding their time until emerging into the present centuries. With their debut, not one of grandiose stature, the formation of united mali’ker had been spearheaded under the bloodline; the eventual successor to ’ker independence and thus ascension to royalty. Those born of the Onyx oft acquire aptitude in traditional upbringing, varying in focus. Education is paramount for a young Syllar, casting aside household values to instead be learned by the harsh realities of the world. Statecraft for the silver tongued, martial matters for the durable and hardy, and seldom, rulers with prowess to both.

 

Brandishing a brutish nature, the Syllar are oft warlike and practice what it means to preach strength. With ideals originating from the means of fight or flight, the Syllar with crowns of onyx rejoice in conflict and the drums of war. Challenges and testaments of power are the pride and principle of Syllar, inclined to duel, fight and better oneself both physically and mentally.

History

 

Without the limelight for centuries, the Syllar acquired a stranglehold upon worldly politics after establishing themselves under the guidance of Vulnir Syllar alongside Avurak Syllar, the founders of legacy. Foundations began independently from within the Wonka Woods after continued denial from the ‘aheral and ‘ame states, a measly camp without much substance or true grandeur. A wayward folk, nomadic even, the Syllar with their band of trusted ‘ker ventured into Krugmar and resided furthermore to procure and assess a future further with their religious kinsmen.

 

And so, marked the eventful occasion which had brought the Syllar over the shores of Arcas, a scattered folk without leadership or residence. Still, had the dream of independence and primacy veer from reach after settling the shores and tropical isle of Harlond. Without the esteemed leadership of Vulnir and now for Avurak, an autonomous settlement within the fringes of Aegrothond had been founded. Upon the woes of Prince Avurak, the distant summoning of Valen Syllar came to be; his brother from lands yore, a tribal ‘ker by nature. Longsword at his hip, ashore the scurvy-ridden Syllar ascended to aid his sibling to prosperity. And so prosperity came, Harlond enjoyed remarkable activity which rivalled that of the mali’fenn; the Southern Sea harbour of onyx dreams. But the true ambition remained, independence; it would never have been acknowledged upon Harlond, and so they set for migration.

 

Establishing a foothold upon what was dubbed by Valen Syllar as the “Princelands” beyond the reaches of the world, an untouched meadow encircled by mountainscape. The Great Migration period resulted in suffering for the Syllar, the two brothers arduously tasked with procuring a home for their people; unshackled from the whims of foreign nations. They established a remarkable paradise, a tropical isle similar to Harlond previously, a saltstone cove, a den of self-governance. Prosperity, peace and activity ensued; which brought the attention of foreign eyes. Troubles arising, a tumultuous era awaited the Syllar which had yet to come.

 

War now upon their doorstep, a Renatian party brought ruin to Avurak Syllar; parading his death in the square of Helena. Distraught and disorganized, an informal coronation of Valen alongside his now wife, Leilatha the Warhawke, took place with vows of vengeance. Their marriage resulted in a union between the traditional spirit-praising culture and Igne’acaela beliefs. Escalation followed the brewing conflict, a now revolt ensued within the Empire to which the Syllar sided with, a testament to their previous encounters. In the conflict, the Syllar fought remarkably well yet the woes of exhaustion plagued the people which resulted in the eventual abdication of Valen after the conflict subsided.

 

In his wake, the son of Valen and Leilatha Syllar, Vaelor Syllar came to be; to ascend the Onyx Throne. With the woes of exhaustion bringing the Syllar to turmoil, Vaelor had much growing to do. Maturity struck, and so Vaelor assumed his rightful mantle to govern the free mali’ker people proudly with the blessing of Luara and Igne’acaela.

Descendants of the lineage of Valen and Leilatha tattoo blue ink over either their right or left arm depending on gender. As per tradition, these tattoos signify their person within the bloodline and as descendent of the princely line. They occupy from the backhand upwards to their bicep, of intricate designs comprised wholly of a blue backdrop with stars, swirls and clouds dominant in the skyscape. 

 

 

There are no known familial tradition in any other line of Syllar.

Inheritance and succession within the bloodline of Syllar follow a strict agnatic-cognatic primogeniture where the eldest of the established ruler inherits all estates of their predecessor. If there is a male, they shall inherit over an elder sister, but

without any males it shall revert to the female successor. Males of the bloodline are expected to forge their own destiny and found their own legacy. Female born Syllar do not marry matrilineally, therefore do not keep the name, nor are adoptions tolerated within the family.
