History
[edit source]Early in the campaign (591 to 595 CY), a chord was struck with adventure authors and players exploring the theme of ending the racial/cultural oppression of the Rhennee (especially by the Bär Rampant).[1] By 594 CY, "the Rhennee are concerned about the treatment that they have been receiving by many of the houses in the duchy. They want to live under the protection of a noble house to ensure that there will be no further [persecution]." Advice was sought by one of the Rhennee Vetha, Karedaiva, about who the best noble house would be to approach.[2]
House Kaste "became the patrons of the Rhennee in 595 CY and brought a stop to the trumped up arrests of Rhennee."[3][4]
