THE NOBLE HOUSE OF MRRIV

They dance in Moon-Light when mortals are asleep...their dancing-places being very distinguishable: For as they dance Hand in Hand, and so make a Circle in their Dance, so next Day there will be seen Rings and Circles upon the grass.


Matriarch: Silavirn
Speciality: Music & Dance
Heir: Rymph
Main Residence: The Grand Stage of Silukal

It is quite indicative to their enjoyment of the performing arts that most of the Mrrivean palaces are built around their majestic scenes and amphitheaters. Much of the Seelie culture is centered around the dance, and house Mrriv has always made it a point of pride to be best at it. All parents are expected to teach their children to dance as soon as they learn to walk. The member who can't play a musical instrument is rare, and then it is often because they are too dedicated to theater to care.

This focus on the core values of Fey has ensured them a high position and much prestige through the ages, which has more than made up for their tendencial social blunders and misssteps. Many have learned to their misfortune that this doesn't necessarily make them incompetent merchants or negotiators, though several of them have earned a certain reputation for being cheap.

A little explanation for the family tree below. It goes from the bottom and upwards. Two names joined by a line which leads to new names means that the two are parents of the names above.

The names with a black dot in front of them are the ones which actually belong to this house. The rest of them are merely related. The "m" in a circle mean that they were married, while a "+" signifies girl/boyfriends. The paranthesis behind each name is ease: Male or Female.
