Clan Vilchyc

Radaghastian Rulers

 

ᛜᛥᛜ

 

Introduction

 

 The Vilchyc family stands as the rulers of the Radaghastian kin, centred around the Daelish Isles. With their ancestral title of Vistulia, all children of Radaghast are finally able to unite together and work for a common goal - something that was tried many times before, but to no avail. 

 

 They stand by the principles given in the Stareviara faith, showing hospitality and kindness to those that come to their land, as long as the other side wishes them no harm as well. Only because of that the Isles were given a chance to see life again, filling the empty homes with new warmth.

 

 Under their rules falls the responsibility for the Daelish-Vistulian Clansguards. With strong military traditions running through the Vilchyc family blood, they are oftentimes seen as leaders not only of the common folks, but of the warbands as well.

 

Culture

 The Vilchyc clan shows great pride in their culture, representing Radaghastian kin with all of their ways. Speaking the Vistulian language, believing in Stareviara gods, following traditions left behind by ancestors, and leaving behind a legacy worthy of Radaghast himself.

 

 Their most common culturally visible deeds are connected with the craft. Having been left with a long legacy of smiths, most men in the Vilchyc family know how to work the forge even at a fairly young age. Similarly with the Kovaceski branch taking on the old legacy, they have incorporated into the clan a woodworking tradition, based mostly around figurines of the deities and other cultural handcraft.

 Women of the Vilchyc clan are known for their astonishing work with the loom and great abilities when it comes to sewing. Clothes made by the Vilchyc clan can be found being used by many races and cultures, with Radaghastian styled ones being the most common.

 

 In Kosheis way, no matter whether a girl or a boy, children of the Vilchyc clan are taught to fight well. With the burden of responsibility over the entire cultural kin, they are expected to be able to defend both themselves and aid those who are unable to do so themself. Whether they wish to pursue military path by joining the Clansguards or if they prefer everyday common work, is in the end up to them, but they are expected to defend themselves at least.

 

Titles Held

Clan Vilchyc holds the following titles as their ancestral right

 

Piastdom of Vistulia - The Ancestral title of the Radaghastian Kin

Vilkomirs Banner - A warband company banner made by the first of the Kovaceski line

 

History

 First line of the Vilchyc clan comes from an ancient Gorundyr line of Skarpefanger warriors. Being cursed with their cultural heritage and bloodline that had been shamed by the members, most decided to end the legacy they held by themselves. With the only one left alive being Svetovid, son of Friggr Skarpefanger, he ventured into the northern realms and searched for anything that would give him new purpose in life.

  From that decision came the first Vilchyc, as Svetovid found himself in caves that were filled with stories of the first Radaghastians, he began to learn. Found himself realising that what was given to him, was the very purpose he looked for, as any remaining Radaghastians might have been closer to a folklore, rather than actual people. On that day he took the last name of Vilchyc, name given to the first of the Radaghastians that arrived to the Radaghasts land from Navia.

 

 From this decision after many years came Zakopane, a small mountain village set in the Tatra Valleys found in Fennic mountains. Svetovid with his followers settled those lands, finding a good chance to establish their own culture there.

 It was a short lived town though, as Bies’s blizzard came one day, leaving the entire village covered by snow for years to come. Many of the gathered there citizens perished, and those that remained left the valleys, seeing this land as cursed.

 

 For the next one and a half centuries there were no more mentions of the Vilchyc clan. They seemed to have perished along with the village itself. Few of the Radaghastians band began working on creating other settlements under the Kingdom of Haense, but in the end it came to nothing as well. Only after reaching Almaris, Vilkomirs Banner led by Casimir Kovaceski, son of Vilkomir the Drunkard, the legacy was born anew.

 With a mercenary contract offered by Reig Llewelyn ap Fawr of the Daelish Isles, Casimir began his hard work to bring forward new life to the isles. Being able to unite many of his kinsmen, previously scattered across the continents, he found a home that was promised to them centuries ago.

 In it, when more of his kin united under a single banner, Casimir formed the Piastdom of Vistulia, taking the role of a Piast by himself as to help and lead his kin to a brighter future. And as decades passed, he delved deeper into the ancestral stories, finding more information that helped him to find what purpose he had.

 Finally, after a lost battle in the northern continent, he left the Kovaceski legacy behind, reviving the Vilchyc clan once more, with hope to witness it unite more of his kinsmen under one banner.
