Notable individuals

[edit | edit source]
  • Lord Agnard Gellor—Archbaron of Fennelmore, he resides at Stone Battle. A Suel/Oeridian noble of commanding presence, Lord Gellor cuts an imposing figure; even in his mid-to-late fifties he remains fit and vigorous, with pale gray eyes and a crown of silvered hair that speaks more of experience than age. After the death of Contessa Elone, Lord Agnard assumes leadership of House Gellor, guiding it with a steady hand and an open ear for his people. He is widely regarded as one of the most beloved archbarons in the county for his fairness, approachability, and unwavering sense of duty. Many people across all social classes believe Lord Duncombe deprived him of the title of Count during the Council of Peers in 596 CY, a slight that still lingers in quiet conversation. Despite this, Lord Agnard remains loyal to the county, placing stability and the welfare of his lands above personal ambition; qualities that have only strengthened his reputation as a just and honorable lord.[4][5] He is the father to Lord Rinald and Lady Cezia.. In 598 CY, he was captured by a pleasure devil with a trap the soul gem during the Battle of Stone Battle,[6][7]
  • Lady Alisia Gellor—is the daughter of Lord Mayor Weir Gellor and Lady Angelica Gellor, and the younger sister of Sir Pergiet Gellor. She is of direct Oeridian ancestry and was born in 576 CY. She is petite and strikingly beautiful, with golden hair, dark blue eyes, and a warm, ready smile that reveals her dimples and puts others at ease. Raised according to the expectations of her station, Lady Alisia was carefully educated in diplomacy, etiquette, and the art of entertaining. From a young age she understood that a political marriage would one day be required of her, and she has been groomed to bring honor and distinction to her future household through her talents and bearing. An accomplished harpist, Lady Alisia delights in hosting social gatherings and has sharp, playful wit; one she wields gently, but never at another’s expense. When she is eighteen, she gets engaged to Sir Galen Slowstride, who will take the Gellor name upon their marriage, uniting him formally with her family and its legacy.[8]
