One of the oldest families of Auronas the House Draenon has its roots on the banks of the River Thamer.
Origins
The first lord on record is Lord Roger Draenon the Charismatic. According to legend, using only his charisma Roger joined all the river lords under his command, founding the kingdom of Thamer. For many generations, the Draenon reigned supreme in the region, until came the High Kings. The ancient Kingdom of Thamer became only a region of the vast kingdom of Auronas. The House Draenon managed to stay in power, however only as lords.
When the Usurper King fell, once more the Draenon gathered all the lords of the river and beyond, founding the Kingdom of Tarnost. However, this time the charisma was not enough, and blood was shed. Now, this new king, Jeod Draenon the Conqueror, has the task of keeping his newly forged kingdom so that in future their successors can occupy it. But for Jeod, expansion seems more tempting than merely sit on his hard-won throne.
