House Cerrick

The Cerricks have a tumultuos past but have always pledged loyalty towards The Nation of Ameril and have thus far managed to retain both their title and the majority of their wealth. They are the richest House within the nation and possess a great deal of influence in the upper circles. Aside from this they also possess several powerful family heirlooms and control a great deal of information and specialist items, thanks to their matriarch being a powerful diviner and mage. Having established many contacts through their time, it is suggested that they are the most influential of the Houses.
Lady Delilah Cerrick is a regal lady, appearing to be in her mid 50's although by all accounts, she has been that age for at least the last 20 years. She bears a striking resemblance to the original matriarch of the House, Amathene Cerrick. She is sometimes seen about the manor, although most of the time she is not in Meridith, regularly making trips abroad.
Jarek Cerrick Is the wealthy and cunning Patriarch of the Cerrick. A tall blonde man with a well-kept beard and mousetrap Jarek has a great deal of influence in Meridith. Shrewd with his wealth and active in gaining allies, Jarek enjoys playing the diplomat and handling any intrigues that may come his way.
Illmare Cerrick is the flirtatious and beautiful daughter of Jarek and is the pride and joy of the family. Many see her as the most beautiful woman in the city, with the charisma to match. Illmare is actively fending off potential suitors in rivalry with the Lady Imbe Drakenherir. The two women are close friends and Illmare prefers to keep out of the dealings her father delves in instead playing the sweet hostess in most gatherings.
Paran Cerrick is the eldest of Jarek's sons and a haughty and smart young man. His golden hair and sharp features make him instantly recognisable as a Cerrick. A skilled fencer and brilliant mage, Paran excels in most activities he can be bothered in attempting. Recently he has been seen sneaking out of the city for some clandestine purpose. Some say he is being courted by The Voices of the Dark
Their Crest is a Drake on a green background with a black border. Their motto is 'patria et familia' meaning 'Country and Family first.'
