History of Ilbarych

Founding

• Year 0: The remnants of the Wolfen Lance, fleeing the collapse of their home empire, arrive along the Steel Road. They conquer the trade hub that comes to be called Crownhold.
  • The native wrightfolk push back against the invasion, but they cannot stand against the heavy cavalry and support units of the Wolfen Lance.
  • Late that year, General Ilbarych is anointed as the Crown of the newly won lands. He appoints a number of his commanders and important retainers as nobles, charging them with the pacification and defense of their new lands.

Crowns of House Ilbarych

During this era, Ilbarych settled into its conquered lands of the Steel Mountains and Steelvale, and began fortifying Crownhold as a defensive security against the dangers of the Wildweald (which at this time stretched to the eastern shore of the Crown River).

A serious woman with little interest in things she considers frivolous, Evginda listens much and speaks little. Though she is said to appreciate fine art, she rarely gives compliments or praise for such things, leading to her court's reputation as a difficult place to be an artist in. Evginda's consort is a high-ranked soldier from House Vyranthal named Markov, and her Sworn Companion is the sorceress Orilantha.
