+House Lyrandar has long ruled the seas. Their kraken-marked galleons harness air and water elementals and are faster than any mundane vessel. Control of sea and river trade gave Lyrandar considerable power. Now they reach out to the skies. Merely a decade old, Lyrandar airships have undermined the lightning rail's domination of overland travel.
+House Lyrandar also controls the air in a literal way. The Raincallers' Guild can use the Mark of Storms to control the weather for its clients.
+For many of the house's members, the house is more than a family or business-its private island enclave, Stormhome, is the closest thing they have to a homeland. Baron Esravash is ambitious and often steers the house to act in what he sees as the interests of all halfelves. Lyrandar heirs help the Valenar elves run their young kingdom, and some believe that Valenar could become a true homeland for the Khoravar.
+**Maison Lyrandar** is a [[Demi-Elfique]] [[Marqué par le Dragon]] house throughout [[Khorvaire]] with its enclave located on [[Le Refuge]] an island city-state just north of [[Aundair]].
+As is Commun among other Maisons Marquées Du Dragon, Lyrandar is led by a baron (patriarch or matriarch). Some in the house refer to the baron as "Firstborn", believing that [[npc:lyran]] and [[npc:selavash]], the ancient ancestors of Maison Lyrandar and the spiritual ancestors of the [[Khoravar]] race, speak through that individual.
+//"Sovereigns and firstborn, grant me the four blessings promised to our people; dominion over the air, dominion over the water, fortune for my family, and fortune for my future" //- From the Oath of Lyrandar
+=====Marque Du Dragon=====
+Maison Lyrandar possesses the [[marque_des_tempetes]].  This mark grants various magical benefits that allow its bearers to control winds and waves.
+**3.5 Edition: **In the Eberron Campaign Setting (page 66) the Marque des Tempêtes can be taken as a feat for player characters. In its least form it grants the player the ability to cast; //Endure Elements, Fog Cloud //or //Gust of Wind. //Additionally the character receives a +2 on balance checks. In its lesser form it grants the ability to cast; //Sleet Storm, Wind's Favor //or //Wind Wall. //In its greater form it grants the ability to cast; //Control Winds //or //Control Weather.//
+**4th Edition:  **In the 4th edition Eberron Player's Guide (page 91) the Marque des Tempêtes can be taken as a feat that grants the player bonuses to fly speeds and lightning and thunder attacks. Additionally the character masters the //Endure Elements, Enhance Vessel, Summon Winds //and //Water Walk //rituals.
+====== Histoire ======
+Although there are not historical records of the beginnings of the house, Lyrandar is said to have begun around 2000 years ago, six centuries after legends hold that the [[Elfes]] first migrated to [[Khorvaire]] from [[Aérénal]] where some mixed with Humains to create the first Khoravar. [[npc:lyran]] and [[npc:selavash]] were the first of the Khoravar to develop the [[marque_des_tempetes]].
+=====La Dernière Guerre=====
+At the beginning of the [[Dernière Guerre]], Maison Lyrandar was significantly weaker than they are today. Most transport, including military transport (troops and supplies), were carried over land, and [[Orléans]] with their caravans and trade routes, not to mention the Train Fulgurant, were the carrier of choice for every nation and faction.
+Lyrandar, in the early years of the war, made their money primarily in the field of weather manipulation: clearing rainy and muddy regions so troops could pass, using weather to make trade routes impassable (especially if they were Orléans trade routes), helping regions in need of a good growing season because of enemy food raids, and whatever else the paying client needed; though Lyrandar were always careful not to violate the neutrality demanded by the [[Korth Edicts]].
+Orien's trade routes deteriorated as the war went on, and Maison Lyrandar was there to take up the slack with a fleets of galleons to ship for clients via sea. They also sold ships to clients who could afford them.
+Maison Lyrandar also provided [[Le Refuge]] as a safe refuge and meeting place for spies.
+====End of the War====
+Everything changeld in 990 AR when, with the aid of Zil [[Gnomes]] and [[Maison Bombardier]], Maison Lyrandar produced the first Élémentaire [[Aéronefs]]. Lyrandar, no longer limited to the seas, could carry troops and supplies across land faster than Orléans could hope to do, and the House of the Kraken began to completely dominate the transport industry.
+Though they would carry supplies and transport troops for client-nations, but would not use the [[Aéronefs]] in combat so as not to violate their neutrality. They would, however, sell [[Aéronefs]] to nations willing to pay for them, though because of the price of the vessels, there was never a brisk trade in Aéronefs.
+=====Post-War=====
+Unlike some houses, such as Orléans and Bombardier, who suffered huge losses during the war, Lyrandar completed the war without incurring much loss. And unlike some houses, like [[Brunet]], Lyrandar's has not suffered much in the way of political backlash for the money they made during the war.
+Instead, the nations they served largely credit them with providing weather for crops and preventing droughts, and their Aéronefs for giving the post-war economic boost necessary for the Cinq Nations to rebuild. Lyrandar's status is now arguably higher than it has ever been, and the future looks bright.
+Their relations with certain other [[Maisons Marquées Du Dragon]] is not as rosy. Orléans, their main competitor, still reeling from the devastation they suffered during the war, and particularly on the [[Jour du Deuil]], when they Perdu thousands of miles of [[Train Fulgurant]] lines and the enormous transfer hub at [[Metrol]], are increasingly angelred by Lyrandar's encroachment onto what they view as their territory. Maison Bombardier, who provided the initial design work for the Aéronefs, feels that it deserves greater compensation and wants a percentage for all [[Aéronefs]] sold. But while Lyrandar negotiates with these houses, their power and prestige continue to grow with the general populace.

+======Joining Maison Lyrandar======
+Maison Lyrandar is perceived to be a haven for the Khoravar and its viceroys actively encourages them to join the house's guilds. Khoravar who show exceptional skill can be adopted into the house. It is absolutely essential to be Khoravar to join Maison Lyrandar whether through a blood-line, marriage or adoption. Lyrandar are quite lenient when it comes to the joining their guilds as all races are welcome though, they face discrimination as they are excluded from ever holding high office. Lyrandar heirs are strongly discouraged from marrying outside the Khoravar race, doing so was formerly a crime, the punishment being excoriation. Low ranking members of Lyrandar are often aristocrats, experts and Mage-artisans. While the more higher ranked members are more likely to be bards, rogues or swashbucklers or wizards. Alternatively members of the Rain Callers and Voie de Sela are more likely to be clerics, adepts or druids. Over the course of the last century, a number of heirs have become Artificiers, seeking to reduce Lyrandar's dependence on Maison Bombardier's ability to bind Élémentaires to their vessels.
