The Lineage of House Valgon, 1294-1375 DR
as found in the archives of House Delizan

Contemplative and controlled, Imourad practices a regimen of pain.  He has long been tasked with family security.

Proud, sharp-eyed, and quick, Cezria leads any expeditions the family undertakes to trade with the drow.

Quiet and watchful, Rayek has only recently become a Red Wizard.  By himself, he has come to represent the family in Boris' absence.  With his parents, he forms a stable triumvirate of power within the house.  He has gone on expeditions to the drow with his mother.

A lover of wealth, Zelsea scouts for buyers and watches the markets of Eltabbar.

A mischievous man, Halav went missing on a secret mission years ago; his fate is unknown.

Kano is young, energetic, and impulsive.  He is tasked with security and slave expeditions by land, and has recently taken up the mantle of house standard bearer.

Once she was touched by Waukeen, she got a special insight into the marketplace.  Isa keeps her brother on task and keeps the schedule for younger members of the family.  She also goes on slave expeditions by land.

Boris is a cruel, bitter old man who keeps the family running in an orderly fashion, if only so he can have the resources and privacy he needs.  He is credited with getting the family business back on track by making sure that each member of the household performs a function.  In recent years he has been withdrawn and hateful, but following the birth of his great-granddaughter, he took on a new tone.  He approached his family with generosity and redecorated the family home - shortly before disappearing altogether.

Fearful of his father, Berach never dared to enter the ranks of the Red Wizards.  He married very young for a Thayan and quickly produced a child, which he used as an excuse to remain home from the Salamander War.

Shy and scared, Jaka gladly went with her husband when he agreed to join an escort for the Tuigan Horde in 1359.  She and Berach never returned and are known to have fled far away, leaving behind their daughter Jera.

Jera was raised angry at her treatment by her grandfather, Boris.  She was viciously glad to fail her magical aptitude test and has been defiantly "useless" ever since, though she does maintain social ties.  Boris made her useful when he ordered family members to deliver her to him; when she was released, she was pregnant.

Although no one knows her father, it is evident that Thurisa is the product of a fiend.  She was born with small wings that have since sprouted black feathers, and she has red eyes.

Daughter of a perfume dynasty, Tasya was seduced at age 15 by Gulyas while he was on vacation in Thazalhar.  Somehow the intrusion was smoothed over and it was agreed that the offspring would remain a legal heir of House Valgon.  There was no marriage, and Tasya did not leave Thazalhar.

Fury despised his lazy, burbling father practically since birth and aspired to become the very opposite.  He was already a tyrannical man when Bane chose him as clergy, which only reinforced his heavy handed ways.  Possessive, strict, and violent, Fury is tasked with family security and accompanies Cezria on any trips to the drow.

The family was at Ulkar's christening when Antek and Lee'voth were killed.  When Ulkar passsed the magical aptitude test, Boris kept him out of the academy and neglected his education as long as he could, then kept Ulkar at the academy a few years too long.  He even sent Ulkar away on slave raids outside of Thay.  But the year of Boris' disappearance, Ulkar took his chance and became a Red Wizard.  Now Ulkar is at the beck and call of his new masters - and though his family needs him, he has no choice but to obey.

A physically-inclined child, Miklos was favored by Balogh and might have been trained by him to be the house standard bearer, if not for the Salamander War.  Boris refused to provide a fighter's education for Miklos or to allow him to join the military.  Through some maneuvering by his stepmother, Gelina, he has been trained.  Miklos is drawn to the voluptuous nature of the family trade, while also echoing his father's love of control and bullying.  Upon his brother's ascension as a Red Wizard, Miklos gave up his fragile hope of attaining any real standing in the family.  Through careful arrangements, he was allowed to leave Thay with Nauthira.

A soft touch in a family of fighters, Gelina was all but sold by her family to the reawakened lust of Fury.  Well abused and bullied, she quickly produced the daughter Fury wanted and has kept her head down ever since.  She has some connection to his sons, since she is about their age and was raised in their company.

Salia is nearing the age when she will be tested for magical aptitude.  She only knows that she wants to be awesome like her brothers.  Whether she will take the physical or the magical road to power remains to be seen.

Othilla married and produced children fairly young, if only to fulfill her obligations to her house.  She learned bardcraft from Gulyas and became a rising star in the theaters of Eltabbar.  For a number of years she took Roniran Gallegos as a lover, but when the time for elopement came Roniran backed out.  Othilla blamed her husband and children, and withdrew into a haze of drugs.  Upon Roniran's return many years later, Othilla sobered up enough to make him miserable - only to discover he was courting her grown daughter, Azonia.  Othilla schemed to send him away but failed miserably.

E'luaz eagerly married up and became a cheerleader for House Valgon.  Foppish and pretentious, he nonetheless did his duty to wife and house despite Othilla's disregard for him.  E'luaz all but ignored Nauthira, who was raised as his daughter, in favor of Azonia, whom he spoiled rotten in an attempt to make up for her perpetually stoned mother.  Now that she has married against his wishes, E'luaz has brokered his divorce and removed himself from the house.  Though he still loves his daughter, his relationship with her has changed greatly.

Azonia grew up rich and adored by her father.  She was trained by her grandmother in the family business and then imbued with power by a new goddess, from whom she received personal attention.  This gave Azonia confidence that was nigh unshakeable - until she went abroad.  She returned home only to find the full explanation for her mother's hatred.  Her mother's former lover, Roniran, impressed Azonia so much that she risked everything to make him her own.  With her new husband and new temple to take care of, Azonia is expecting motherhood and followers in the upcoming months.

Nauthira spent her childhood in the shadows, so she embraced them as the best defense against the dangers of her family.  When she wore yellow to Gulyas' funeral, it became apparent she had received unwanted attentions from her elder.  For years she was expected to train courtesans alongside her "perfect" sister, Azonia, which she hated.  Only when Nauthira was sent by land to fetch slaves did she feel any peace.  She longed to follow adventures far away without having to return home.  She unexpectedly got her wish when her mother revealed that Nauthira was born out of wedlock.  It didn't seem to matter to Azonia that her fiance was her sister's father.  But it mattered to Nauthira when she suddenly had no claim to the family fortune and no obligations to stay.  She left at the first opportunity.
