House Lazyrus

House Lazyrus is a lesser known family with origins coming from an unknown, far eastern land. Spanning both the lands of Rathnir and Eldham. the history of the family is recorded in a book by the assumed only living member of the family, Scipio Marcus Lazyrus, titled "House Lazyrus".

The First Generation
In the first generation, a blacksmith turned soldier would gain a great reputation in his village, and throughout the empire. His name was Hibernis the lazy eye, which is the name he received for having a lazy left eye at birth. Although this was a part of him, he went on to serve his nation as one of the greatest commanders the empire had ever seen, being granted the title "Publius" Meaning "For the People" in his native tongue and changing what once was a title used against him into the name he and his family would go by, shifting the name from "lazy eye" to "lazy iris" to finally settling on "lazyrus". He would settle down in the empire's capital province, marry the woman Isildra Lepida, and have a son while he continued his work as a blacksmith. He founded the house and died at the age of 104.

The Second Generation
His son, whom would be called Publius Julius, was raised spoiled, which followed into his adult life. Piggybacking off of his fathers great fame, he decided all he needed to do was join the town watch, which he did hoping to instill his name into the family legacy. Julius met the woman Aureila Iulla while out on patrol, and instantly fell in love. Taking his fathers money, he would spend much of it on a lavish wedding, not thinking about his at the time living father, whom cursed his son due to stealing and using his money. Julius had three children with Aureila, Octavius, Minerva, and Tabernicus, passing peacefully at the age of 72, he is recognized as one of the lesser important characters of the family.

The Third Generation
The third Generation would consist of the three children of Julius, Octavius, Minerva and Tabernicus. Starting with the firstborn, Octavius was sent to school very early to learn in the arts of combat. He was granted the title of Scipio by his teachers in the military academy. On one of his breaks Octavius went to the forests surrounding the city to gather some sticks. There he would be attacked by a pack of wolves that lived outside the city, and killed him. Octavius died at age 7, making him the youngest member to pass on.

The second child, Minerva, was important to her father, not because of it being his first daughter, but he was again thinking of monetary gain. As soon as she became of age, she was married off to tribes on the islands near the capital, giving the father enough money to keep his family afloat until he died. She still has not been heard from, and is assumed dead by all family members. The family hated Julius for this even more.

The last child, Tabernicus, was a man of revenge. upon his coming of age he went into the forests where his brother had died, and slaughtered two of the wolves in that pack with his sword. He would return with the pelts on his back, turning them into assorted decorations around his house. He did not hesitate to join the army, and fulfilled his grandfathers legacy, becoming a legendary general and had the opportunity to sit on the senate of the empire, re-receiving the title of Publius to instill it in his family again forever. this was short lived, as he married his neighbor, Valentina Antonia, and had two children together before passing at the ages of 83 and 72.

The Fourth Generation
The fourth generation consisted of the two sons of Tabernicus, them being Antonius and Marcus. Antonius was a lover by heart, having received the title of Publius from his father at a young age. However, Antonius was wild and unpredictable, and even robbed a bank before he was 20, before being pardoned by the emperor. However, he did not like the emperor, and openly spoke out against him soon after. For this he was banished to Rathnir, where he would come to be a part of the Kingdom of Mithusu, and eventually lead it in his later years.

The second son, Marcus, was born much later and remained close to home until he was in his late 20s. There he would sit on the senate of his empire. He is the second int he family to receive the title Scipio, the first being Octavius, who died at the age of 7. With this came a large celebration, and Marcus and the people of the capital threw festivities for five days before he was assigned to go on an expedition to the unknown lands of Eldham. On his expedition, he received a message from an unknown god that he should never return home, and once his boat crashed and he washed up upon the shores of Anglunia, he remained there, hoping to work in a position that he once did in the old country.

Family coat of arms and motto
The Coat of arms colors signify the nobility and wealth that multiple members were able to produce, starting with the men of the first generation. The crown, only notably present on the coat of arms of Antonius Lazyrus, represents his kingship over the kingdom of Mithusu. The helmet that is present represents those of the men of the first and third generation, and their careers of soldiering. The bird represents their imperial commanding skills, with its eyes set to the left and the wings closed represent the protection they gave the people of the old country.

The motto "Glory to our ancestors!" is in tribute to the men of the first generation, who put this house on the map of the old empire and with it the old world.
