Ultas "Raiser-of-Priests" Maernos: Patriarch (Rank 10) • 62 years. While few remember it, Lord Ultas was a mercenary in his youth and he committed a number of atrocities against some southern villages in the quest to bolster his family's finances. Lord Ultas later abandoned that life for his waiting lordship in Waterdeep, but he spent years plagued by waking guilt and nightmares about his past actions. After the untimely deaths of his wife and children in the Year of the Saddle (1345 DR) due to a plague in Amn, Lord Ultas became a recluse, seeing few beyond his servants for four years. Only the ministrations and attention of Naneatha Suaril, the High Priestess of Selûne, brought him out of his grief. With her friendship, Ultas found forgiveness in religion, and soon became a generous patron and devout follower for many of the city's temples (though his heart truly belongs to Selune). Lord Ultas Maernos, while no longer a recluse, has resisted all attempts to remarry and restart his family line.

If you are a scion of the House, the patriarch considers you one of the favored scions of the House, and consults with you on matters of House importance. If you are an agent or retainer, your contributions and skills in service of the House have won you a position of no small regard and respect in the patriarch's eyes - although that may earn you the jealousy of his blood kin who are less favored than you.<br>
-• '''Matriarch/Patriarch:''' ''Rank 10''. You are the acknowledged and legal head of the household.
