The Vardo

Overview

The Vardo is a wagon transport company owned and operated by the Rayunia clan. The deal primarily with transporting foodstuffs from the farmlands into the city proper and delivering supplies to the farther out estates. They are willing to go to the more outlying farms where it isn’t as safe.

The Vardo was establish ten years ago when the Rayunia clan arrived in Kalzasi. They arrived with several wagon houses as well as a few cargo wagons. The patriarch of the clan, Taselia, approached some of his cousins who still lived in the area, and they were able to get him intact with some of the lesser noble’s whose estates were at the farther edge of the city’s influence. Thanks to the fighter training and the fact they already had their own wagons, they found a niche in the market they could fill. So as the years went by the they gained more clints, and not all of them so far out, and expanded their wagon count, and those cousins found themselves drawn into the family business.

Business Basics

The Vardo while officially with Taselia and his wife Sarino at the head. Much of the running of the business has been taken over by their sons and their wives. The woman in the family handle the logistic side of business. They are the ones who meet with the estates to arrange for the transport, they distribute the resources, as well as in many causes driving the wagons. The men will also drive the wagons but there main focus is to pre prepared for anything that attacks. They plan the routes and assess the risk of each trip.

The Vardo functions during every season except frost. They are willing to make a run during that season, but they do charge more since there is a much higher chance of damaging wagons or livestock during the unforgiving season.

Resources

The Vardo company only owns the cargo wagons. The house wagons are own by the specifically family members. The horses and cattle used to pull the wagons are owned by the company itself. The company is slowly breeding sturdy stock of horses that would be perfect to hall these wagons, but that is a goal for the future. They don’t own any buildings or land directly but do lease spots where they are able to park their wagons.

The Vardo works directly with the lesser houses, but most of their clints are connected to the Senue family. The business works hard to keep from being brought to the attention of any of the great houses, including actively underplaying any attacks. They do there job, and do it well, but appreciate the independence they can find doing what they do.

The Dawnmartyr's Cell

Overview

The House of Rayunia is a family of Dawnmartyr knights in exile and hiding. They uphold the teachings of the order but work to do it from within the anonymity of the general population. Which includes avoiding drawing attention to the family and its people outside of aspects as regular citizens they would get attention. They also seek potential new members of the order, but under strict adherence to the original code.

History

The House of Rayunia isn’t one of the ancient house of knights. Taselia Rayunia was originally from the outskirts of Kalzasi, but joined the knights when he was young. He married Sarino, who is descended from a long line of knights. The two had two sons, both of who became knights, married fellow knights and had a number of children. The family was one of those assigned to escape during the end of the siege to save the children but also to continue the order.

Escaping in separate directions eventually the brothers and their parents were reunited, and they quickly settled into life as waggoneers. Over time they were joined by a few of the brother’s wives families. By the time they arrived in Kalzasi they were a proper clan and settle down to work, becoming lost in the regular life so as to become a boring fixture.

Over that times they have continued to fight monster and even evil as they have found it. They continue to bring young people into the order in an effort keep the order alive and to pass on the codes and the order itself.


Resources

The resources of the Verda are intermingled with the resources of this hidden cable of the Knights. So please reference there for economical resources. The family in regards to Dawnmartyr resources, they were able to escape with various manuals, and records, and items of the order. All of these have been carefully hidden by the elders as they have settled down.

The main resources they carry though is the knights training. Between the various senior members of the family they are proficient in various weapons, and have someone who practices each discipline of magic. The members themselves really are the greatest resources as they represent all three types of the order as well, and have knowledge of each group.

Policies

The foremost policy is to live the Dawnmartyrs code, but to do it secretly. Public applaud is to be avoided, and when it can't the policy is to give it to someone not connected to the family.

They are also a family first and foremost who share a similar idea, and that is what they push forward. They will bring others and the new generation into the order, but they don't automatically just tell children, and wait to see if they will want and able to live the secret, or at the very least will keep it.
