House Synderys of Daelyria

House Synderys of Daelyria is one of the High Noble families of the Kingdom of Daelyria. Because of this high rank, its leader will hold the title of High Prince. The family's founder is Dusk Synderys (ign: Dusk_Shard) he has held the title of High Prince of Daelyria and many other significant titles since the country was founded. The house has been involved in sorcery, religion, banking, property construction, trade and diplomacy. It's seat is the Tower of Shadow in Illerya, Daelryia's first colony, the tallest building in the Kingdom. It is currently the richest noble family in Daelyria by far, and is widely regarded as the second most powerful house in the nation, second only the royal house of Blackfyre. Since its leader, Dusk Synderys, is the Master of War in the Daelyrian government, it is responsible for most of the foreign negotiations. The line is said to have begun by the Draconian god of war, Vhagar himself.

History and genealogy.
House Synderys is quite a popolous house. The house has its roots with the great mythological Daelyrian hero, Daelos Ashborn. This mythological hero was said to have had a hundred children on a hundred different people, but all but one of these died before bearing children, either dying by the intervention of the gods, their own folly, or being killed by the last remaining child, depending on the telling. The last remaining child was Illyax, sometimes known as the clever, sometimes known as the kinslayer. For several centuries, the process continued, before one day lady Nyfera Synderys was visited and impregnated with the child Dusk Synderys. He gained his name when his mother died in childbirth, the last thing she saw was the dusk sky. After the several attacks on Kush, Dusk Synderys found three other refugees: King Unburnt of house Blackfyre, as well as Beastfrog and Strivers. They moved to an island and their powers were awakened. Since then, the Tower of Shadow in Illerya was raised by Dusk's own hands, crafted of the materials found deepest in the infernal pits of hell itself. He was also instrumental in the construction of the great Illeryan wall and founding the settlement of Duskopion in newly claimed territory east of Illerya. Dusk's first cousin once removed, Jinan Synderys also founded the Kingdom of Synderia, later Kazhan, and still rules it to this day. This makes house Synderys one of, if not the, most powerful houses in the entire north of Rathnir.

Looks and traits.
House Synderys has perhaps the most classical Daelyrian looks of any house, except maybe house Blackfyre. The line is split in two with the Daelyrian Synderi and the Volo Synderi. The Volo Synderi have darker skin while the Daelyrian Synderi are much paler. Both parts of the family have the distinctive purple eyes and pale hair. Dragon dreams are also common in the family, and it was this that inspired the building of the Tower of Shadow. They are good architects and builders, as well as rich merchants and bankers. Though they historically (and currently) fill the role of Master of War, that does not mean that the family is warlike. This seems to stem as much from a sense of superiority towards other mortals than a love for peace. A semi-famous quote from Lord Dusk Synderys states that: "why would I wield my sword when my tongue bears thrice its sharpness, and can be twice as effective and with half the bloodshed." (this is heavily paraphrased, and the original quote might have been "war is cringe"). Members of the house have also been observed to be able to inspire anger and despair in those around them. If this is some magical quirk or the result of the current patriarch's horrible sense of humour has not yet been discovered.

Colours and sigil.
The colours of house Synderys are purple and black, though sometimes red and black can also be used to represent them. The house's sigil is a purple dragon in the Illeryan abstract form on a field of black. Because of this colouration and the house's investments in inter-dimensional infrastructure and resource gathering, Dusk Synderys has become a leading mage in the field of inter-dimensional travel, having at one point managed to teleport a dog into an extra-demensional void from which it has not yet return.
