History of House Stafyr

 

It is unknown from where Beorn, as the first Stafyr originally comes from, due to the fact that there don't exist any written records anymore or there were never any.

Only the name has been passed on by speech to the descendants of his family. Godwein presumed that they might origin from earlier Hansetians, as the language his House and he himself speak do have obvious similarities and do share the same words.

Likewise it is possible that Beorn has been one of them, but left due to uncertain
reasons, establishing his first family seat back in Aegis.

 

His sons Hanethor and Galtor founded the two lines of Stafyr, respectively named after them. Godwein knows he is a direct descendant of the line of Hanethor and knows of most of the descendants, although he doesn't
field any further records about them.

The line of Galtor might still exist, although Godwein doesn't know of any descendants of it.

Never the less, it can be assumed that Hanethor the First and Galtor fought in Aegis in order to protect their families and to let them move on to the new world.

 

So it was told by Graveth, son of Thondorus and grandson of Hanethor I.

It is known that the town of Rivacheg was founded by the remaining survivors of House Stafyr at the borders of Asulon, led by Thondorus Stafyr.

After a couple of years, Thondorus died from age or weakness, which was unknown of, letting Graveth take the seat of the head of House Stafyr.

Graveth's reign continued the peace in Rivacheg and let the family grow again.

His three sons, of which the last one was named Hanethor II., brought new hope to the House Stafyr, as the brother of Graveth, Uron, only had a daughter, so the line of Stafyr ends there.

 

Godwein was born as the first son of the first son of Graveth, Theor.

Graveth has seen that Godwein might become the next head of House Stafyr and personally started to teach him the ways of a Stafyr.

Soon after Marian's birth, Ravenna, mother of Godwein, fell under a disease, followed by her husband soon after, who had a broken heart and griefed for the remaining time.

Nevertheless Godwein and his uncles Uldorzil and Hanethor II. stood strong and kept House Stafyr up together with the now getting elderly Graveth.

 

Unfortunately, an incident occured and a band of marrauding knights destroyed Rivacheg and killed all remaining members of House Stafyr, leaving out Godwein and Graveth.

Whilst Godwein returned and saw the destruction of his home and family, Graveth watched him leave again.

Soon though a distant cousin of Godwein visited the ruins of Rivacheg, finding Graveth, who
then left into the forests to die alone, taking a last letter from him.
This letter finally reached Godwein after a long time, containing the last wish of Graveth.

 

Godwein led the house for a long time and had two sons with his wife Alesira, Graveth II. and Theor II., During his leadership the family grew in size as Stafyrs from all of Oren started to come back, the house established its first hold in Elysium in the small fort  village of Huntshill, where the life of House Stafyr flourished and the house gained more political influence in the Holy Oren Empire as Godwein was named Lord Privy Seal by the emperor.

When the island group of Kalos was discovered House Stafyr together with House Valois built a large manor on top of a mountain, overlooking the island claimed by Oren. 

 

It was on this island Godwein's two sons, Graveth II. who was supposed to be heir but had been disinherited after violating the family words and Theor II. who had been named heir instead dissapeared.

Theor would return many years later only to vanish again shortly afterwards.

 

In Anthos House Stafyr was given the southeastern shores of Oren, the land was named Schattenburg and the house was made vassals of House Silverblade.

Stafyr continued to prosper, Godwein was named Lord Treasurer and Grand Justice by the emperor but he would later succumb to the stress of it all and the simple lumberjack who had managed to become one of the most powerful men in Oren had now died, his heart failing him.

Many years later the church would canonize Godwein, naming him Saint Godwein of Huntshill.

 

His great nephew Ser Edmund was now made to rule House Stafyr.

Edmund being a very content man in life had no aim to seek glory or power, his main wish was to keep the legacy of Godwein and House Stafyr safe.

He had for some years been a knight in the Chapter of the Lion and his main duty was to that, fighting the enemies of Oren and protecting the empire and the imperial family.

Edmund managed to keep House Stafyr out of most internal conflicts, mainly the Teuton - Blackmont war where House Stafyr stayed neutral, sending no men to fight for either side.

 

The everyday life of Stafyr would soon be shattered as Edmund and his younger brother Ser Farley I. got into a fight, swords were drawn and shortly afterwards Farley was lying in his own blood, killed by his own brother and Lord Daniel Baelish (Kamura).

Edmund had loved his brother and it shattered him, he would lock himself into his study for days, injuring himself for no apparent reason.

His wounds would shortly afterwards get infected, sending him to bed with a high fever but in this fever he had a dream and once he felt better he suddenly left, naming his sister Leana and cousin Alistier lord regents in his absence.

 

Edmund had departed to the holy lands, to fight in the crusades to redeem himself in the eyes of the creator, leaving his wife, his daughter and his entire family at home whilst he fought for the creator and Oren.

A year later he would return home to his family, resuming lordship of the house.

The house would remain stable for a few years and a son would be born to Lord Edmund and Lady Angelika, they named him Farley II.

 

Shortly after the great exodus of Oren, Edmund was named lord privy seal of the faltering empire and made Knight Commander of Renatus in the Holy Order of the Red Dragon, but only a few months after Edmund died, infected with TB.

 

His son Farley II., who was only four years old inherited the lordship and his aunt Leana was named lady regent.

Oren was in chaos, war ravaged the lands as different noble houses grasped for power and land.

To protect House Stafyr from the madness the house vanished from the face of Anthos, barricaded into the Shadowcastle.

 

At sixteen years old Farley took over House Stafyr and the house returned from it's hiding, once again ready to return into the political game that is Oren.

((Why us?: I've been very impressed with the amount of Stafyr RP there is. I think it's a great opportunity to have fun RP with a great group of people.

((Why you?: I've been on LoTC for almost 2 years now. I would consider myself I good RPer and whenever I start a new character I have a strong ambition to play him as much as I can and really start to create strong IC and OOC relations, so that the best RP can happen. I'd love to join.

Allignment: Chaotic Neutral

Occasional background story: ((I'll tell it from how I think he'll be when he's older.))  As a child Braen was always happy and just wanted to play and have fun, but as he began to mature he started to lose his childish spirit and slowly became a iron hearted and at times cruel man. He doesn't go out seeking to kill, but his philosophy on crime is that the punishment must fit the crime. He holds grudges above most things and he believes fear is the only way to rule someone.

I think a new thread is in order, as a few of the Stafyrs mentioned here are dead now and Emenzi's quit, making it impossible for the thread to be kept up to date.

((This will be done in due time. I apologise to House members for my innactivity on Leana - I've been a little swamped with ET and Antagonist work in the last week. Hopefully, things will pick up soon ^.^))
