Their eyes consist of hues of blue or brown, rarely ever stretching to shades of green.

Bastards

It comes as a blessing that to this point there has yet to be a Korvacz bastard, though in the scenario one comes crawling up from the soil, they shall not be taken underwing and instead are branded with the surname “Kova.” From there it is recognized that if the bastard is to sully the true Korvacz name, they are to be hunted and dealt with accordingly.

Occupations

Occupationally, the Korvacz family is known to be skilled hunters, trackers, and knights. Occasionally, one strays from some jobs, though this is not frowned upon and some Korvacz have even been seen as medics or architects.

History

House Korvacz is currently one of the oldest houses within the Duchy of Stran, with the family having distinct roots beyond the initial founding of the Duchy itself. The progenitor Caine Korvacz was predominantly remembered for his time on Anthos to Athera. After his death, the family existed with his wealth, though eventually fell back into survival and migration when they lost most of their wealth traveling to Vailor. Because of these times, they developed skills needed to continue their existence which slowly became hobbies and traditions, and around the ages of Almaris, they tamed themselves out and slowly began to settle. The Korvacz’s time on Failor would prove significant to their rise in status, numbers, and reputation. However, since their journey to Aevos, they have integrated into Raevir society and have stayed staunchly tied to the Ivanovich family of which they were granted their titles.

Religion

The Korvacz family has been and continues to be firm believers in Canonist ideals and refuses to stray from GOD. It is unknown when they adopted this form of religion, but most assume it has been the same since the time of the progenitor himself.

 

Culture

Since their time on Almaris, the Korvacz have grown accustomed to Raevir culture, adopting their language, traditions, and lifestyle.

Values

Those of the Korvacz name typically value family and loyalty above all else. They find their strength in numbers, correlating with their motto of “Together, We Prosper.”

 

Morals

Korvacz believes in doing the right thing, often tending to lend a hand through whatever means possible. Of course, they keep in mind their religion and values, and do not stray from bloodshed if it means things will return to the way they were before, to what was proper.

 

Traditions

Because of the length of their existence, Korvacz has formed traditions to follow through with their past times, some less prioritized than others.

⊱ When it comes to the selection of an heir, they are selected based on merit rather than gender or order of birth.

⊱ In order to ask for the hand in marriage of a Korvacz woman, one must first duel their father—brother if the father is deceased, and if there is no brother, the head of house—to be judged in their worthiness.
⊱ For most weddings, it is customary for a Korvacz woman to wear simple white attire with a fur pelt of either an animal she or her significant other has slain.

 

Signed,

Her Ladyship, Xénia Korvacz, Baroness of Kotovy
