Celestiel Dynasty

The Celestiel Dynasty is the current reigning royal house of the Erz Königreich Draakonien in both Draakonien on Rathnir and Eldham, furthermore is it one of the most powerful noble houses within the Simulami Empire due its current head being one of Simulami’s Royal Regents.

Founding
The Celestiel dynasty may count as of the oldest hereditary dynasties of the worlds as it was founded by Gyndra “The Founder”, ruler of the now almost forgotten Draakenkhaganate many aeons ago, before any other races even came upon the land of rathnir. After the destruction of the Draakenkhaganate, Gryndra as well as almost all Draaken decided to seal themselves underground to protect themselves. Thus over the next few aeons Gryndra and the Celestiel dynasty became the undisputed rulers over the Draaken and more due her kind and efficient rule which made the Draaken people prosper even in a lightless world.

Traditions
The Celestiel dynasty prides themselves on the power of their magical abilities, with each member usually being an expert in several forms of sorcery and divine magic. Furthermore each member is expected to worship Astralil, the Dygrathos goddess of the stars and divine ancestor to Gryndra Celestiel as well as one or more other Dygrathos deities of their choosing.

The names of the Celestiel dynasties members are directly picked from the Draaken names of the stars, usually later in life they also get assigned a title by Astralil herself.

The Celestiel dynasty is probably the most extreme example of the Draaken disliking the concept of marriage and even beyond there seems to be a mindset within the family to completely reject romantic relationships. This has led to all the male progenitors within the family not being bound to them and thus any recordings about them seem to have been lost. The only thing known for sure currently is that all of them seem to have been regular, sentient dragons.

While the Dynasty has one overaching family motto each member adds one of their own to represent themselves and to further represent themselves within the dynasty.

Values
The Celestiel dynasty values loyalty to one's people, friends and allies, self expression, integrity, Kindness, Justice, Perseverance and Determination as especially valuable traits within the dynasty. With Determination being the value held above all else, as they believe that a person with enough determination is able to accomplish anything they set their mind too.

Even with this normally fairly ambitious mindset, betrayal is seen as the biggest sin by them and they will always call for the persecution of traitors.

Heraldy
The Celestiel dynasties coat of arms doesen't follow traditional heraldy. It depicts a different variation of the Dygrathosm, Ouroboros known as the “Worldkeepers.” within each of the serpents dragons looping body is a symbol. One of these symbols is a flame to represent the everburning determination of the dynasty, while the other is a comet, which is meant to depict the stars and thus the divine heritage to the goddess of stars the family possesses.

Mottos
They have several mottos, with members adding their own and one overarching one.

Astralil: “We’ll keep shining”

Gryndra “I remain still, power of will, leaves me here to keep on trying”

Endrur “From origins, confront the sins”

Calamity “No one stands in our domain”

Yental “No cost to great”

Overall Motto: WIP

Relations
ZenoHUN of House Maestro is seen as the closest and most important friend and ally of the Celestiel dynasty. With Yental's and his allyship being established since Draakonien initially became part of the Order Müvielle. Nowdays they see each other as good friends, with Yental usually referring to him as his "Brother in all but blood and Religion" and both acting as close advisors to each other in their respective nations.

The House of Ironhide is a vassal house beneath the Celestiel dynasty and is a major political force with Draakonien. Furthermore many of its members are seen as close friends or atleast allies in both political and religious sense.
