House Zedolphin

House Zedolphin is a Great House of Sonora, bearing the heraldry of an Eagle soaring with spears in its talons over a green field. They arose to prominence during the War of the Southern Storm, in which Amalique Zedolphin, squire to Sir Amden, battled against Zahm the Feybane's shaman "Teethseer", nearly being killed but throwing a spear square into his head. This allowed Zerath the Bronze Flame a clear way to battle and kill Zahm, and so Amalique was knighted and had her house ascend to the nobility. From then on, Amalique worked hard under King Devlin to push the Orcs far back into what would be known as the Orcish Take, and became instrumental in the function of Sonora's approach to war and combat. For her efforts, she was awarded the position of Duchess of Sonora, a position that her family has held to the modern-day.

Structure

  • Amalique Zedolphin: The Daughter of a gravedigger, Amalique rose to serve as Squire to Sir Amden after meeting him burying his previous Squire. During the Battle Below the Weep at the end of The Southern Storm War, Sir Amden was unhorsed and she stood ground to protect him, being met with the dark magic of "Teethseer", Zahm's shaman. By luck and skill, she battled against his spells and managed to skewer him with Amden's Spear. This would see her arise to Knighthood and eventually becoming Duchess.
  • Emil Zedolphin II: Son of Adam Zedolphin, Emil served as the Duke of the region of Grynn and War Counselor to King Dalen Sonora during the War of the Eastern Rend.
  • Irene Zedolphin-Meyer: Daughter of Emil II, Irene served as Duchess of the new southern region and eventually Sheriff of the Town of Guildmore.

Assets

  • Orcslade: A magical sword that Sir Amden had made for Amalique after her ascension to Knight, as a reward for having saved his life when he was attacked by Teethseer. It is a +2 magical longsword that has advantage on attack rolls against creatures with the Orcish subtype, dealing an additional 1d8 necrotic damage to them. It can also cast the spell Hunter's Mark once per day.
