Name: House of Val'Maranthy

Title: Hatakomon

Symbol: The colors of House Val'Maranthy range from hues of purple{Commonly amethyst}, silver, and greens. The symbol of the house often seen in their coat of arms is that of a skull with four tentacles branching out from the mouth.

Affiliation: House Briathos

Notoriety: They are only known by their patron house, but are well versed in the magical arts of Summoning & Necromancy. They are often whispered among the lesser houses of Briathos of being a cabal of assassins and cultist

Background: To equate The House of Val'Maranthy as a simple Lesser noble house would be a pale underestimation of the family as a whole. The Val'Maranthies, known as a house of otherworldly thinkers and researchers, is a sophisticated cabal of mages, necromancers, philosophers, and when called for, killers ran by a cunning and ambitious Haldir Val'Maranthy. Running strong since their ascent into nobility, this family has been under speculation for numerous acts of ritualistic murder, kidnapping, as well as unethical practices, but nothing concrete in the forms of evidence has surfaced during any investigations.

Masquerading as a magical science guild, this family has been working for the elite of Kalzasi since its founding given the connections it has built over the years, earning them a reputation for fulfilling the needs of clients to the letter. Though small in the grander scheme of shadowy networks and dealings, the Val'Maranthy have earned themselves quite the reputation, a family of class, decorum, and most of all efficiency.

Estate: Moonveil Manor is the home of the Val'Maranthy. The mansion has seen many generations come and go and was built to last the ages. With multiple rooms, a secret magic laboratory beneath the home, and a library, Moonveil Manor was built to be a bastion of arcane study and exploration. It's also renowned for its sombering beauty, especially at night when under the moonlight, given its current name. What makes this home unique and Ideal for the Val'Maranthy house however is that there is a sanctuary behind the home where the veil between the material realm and the aetherium is thin enough Household:

• The Rune of Summoning etched into Siorey's flesh is unique as it fuses with his soul by the denizens of the abyss. Fascinated by such unfathomable mysteries and things unknown to the world, the rune will invoke Siorey to seek and conquer the mysteries of the unknown. As Siorey grows in proficiency he will soon begin to exhibit instincts innate to an eldritch creature such as the ones he summons. His thinking patterns and tactics will now mimic that of these otherworldly entities, both grand and unfathomable. By the end of his journey, Siorey will find himself becoming an aristocrat among the strange and unnatural, groomed to become the Hier of the Eldritch Court

Apprentice - Uninvited Minds

• Siorey's eyes now glow a chilling amber in nature. Siorey will find that whenever he summons an eldritch entity their thought process lingers with his own mind. This varies depending on the rank of the spirit summoned, minor spirits leaving faint traces where as a moderate spirit's way of thinking could last several days.

Journeyman - Otherworldly Grasp

• At this level of awakening, Siorey finds that the tentacle spirits he tends to summon have manifested itself in this awakening. He is able to sprout four amethyst scaled tentacles from the back around the waist. Using Siorey's aether as a fuel source, they hold regenerative abilities, and with enough aether feeding into them some could even survive the most critical of damage.
  
  Reaching lengths of 10ft, 4ft in thickness, they can yield formidable striking power being able to pummel, constrict, or pierce foes. He can also bind them together to fashion two larger, stronger tentacles. Because they are made of aetheric energy, it makes them comparatively to aether canceling items or forces. This will disarm Siorey no matter how much aether is poured into them, leaving him at a disadvantage when using them on the defensive.
