HOUSE ADILER


“May The Stars Be Ever In Our Favour”



INTRODUCTION

 

Uphold honor and righteousness, protect those that cannot do so themselves, be the shield that covers the wounded, the sword that saves the innocent.

Adiler, those that bear this name are selfless, courageous, and loyal.

For if an Adiler swears loyalty, they shall die by it. They shall never put their needs in front of others. They shall never shy away from a battle.

An Adiler that turns against the ideals of the family shall be shunned and deprived of the name, for the family does not encourage cowardness, selfishness, or disloyalty.

Traditions Of House Adiler

The Prayer of Stars

Central to the beliefs of the Adiler family is the reverence for the stars, which are seen as celestial guides offering wisdom and direction. To honor this connection, a star is prominently featured on the family’s banner and uniforms, symbolizing their deep devotion to the heavens.

Every decade, the family organizes The Prayer of Stars, a significant event where members come together to give thanks and offer prayers to the celestial bodies that have guided the family throughout the years. During this gathering, the Adilers reflect on the guidance received and offer their hopes for the future, trusting that the stars will continue to illuminate their path.

The Trials of Loyalty

For those born into House Adiler, The Trials of Loyalty represent a rite of passage. These trials are unique to each individual, designed to test their dedication to the family and its celestial beliefs.

Each trial is crafted to confront the individual with their deepest fears, pushing them to overcome these challenges as a testament to their loyalty and strength. Upon successful completion of the trial, a dagger is forged as a symbol of their devotion. This heirloom is carried throughout their life and, upon their death, serves as a lasting remembrance of their service and dedication to the Adiler legacy.

The Mark of Devotion

Once an individual has proven their loyalty and demonstrated their worthiness, they are awarded The Mark of Devotion, a family tattoo symbolizing their place within House Adiler. Each member is free to choose the location on their body where the family crest will be inked, allowing them to personalize this sacred mark.

Alongside the crest, members of the family are bestowed celestial titles, reflecting their connection to the stars and marking their honored status within the House. These badges of honor are worn with pride and serve as a reminder of their commitment to the family's celestial beliefs.

Revealing the Stars

The Adilers openly display their devotion to the stars, not only through their actions but also through their attire and appearance. A tradition known as Revealing the Stars encourages family members to wear clothing that reveals the tattoos of the constellations adorning their bodies. These tattoos are sacred, representing their connection to the celestial gods and the wisdom of the stars, and are proudly displayed to the public as a sign of their belief.

The Adilers’ attire is a striking combination of flowing white, gold, and red silks, evoking both elegance and reverence. Their outfits are often complemented by delicate body chains and earrings, further emphasizing their celestial connection. This distinctive style showcases their devotion, ensuring that the Adilers are both physically and spiritually aligned with the stars.

• After the baptism, the couple exchanges crowns they have crafted for each other, placing them upon one another’s heads. These crowns are made in secret before the ceremony, each designed to reflect their partner’s personality as they see it in their own eyes.

For the Guests
