The Cataclysm that fractured much of the known world also brought about the near annihilation of the Telarel bloodline, with much of the physical imprint and record of Telarel lost. Lithendendil, the family grounds (including their plantations), fell alongside Ivaëlle due to natural disaster, and many members of the family were killed due to unknown circumstances but largely assumed as a combination of what the Cataclysm brought. The natural disasters, the uprising of their slaves and the Eronidas invaders in the west all contributed to thin the already weakened bloodline. These years represent the darkest periods in Telarel history, barely written and barely researched. A vast majority of art, history, documentation and other family heirlooms and artefacts from the greater past are assumed lost forever, with only a handful of written documents on the past and largely stories shared verbally from generation to generation. A sorrow that many of the Est-Allorn share, still largely unforgettable even to the living Telarel descendants. Many of the deeper histories of Telarel are safeguarded with aggression whilst copies are continuously being made as to endure any further cataclysmic event.
Lithendendil was rebuilt around two-hundred years ago under the same name by the patriarch of the House, Fílsuramair Telarel, within the remnant borders of Tanaar Ivaëlle - not to express power and worth, but to offer settlement and revival to the family bloodline. Upon the southern coast did the plantations pop up alongside other recovering families and factions alike, humbled by the disasters prior, returning once again to their more passive roots of agriculture. Never quite recovering their numbers before the Cataclysm however, the Telarel bloodline managed to grow once again for the first time in hundreds of years with several offsprings being born to their parents, they branched off into explorative bloodlines that remained or strayed from the new family epicenter, remaining true even after the conflicts and wars that have developed in the past.
Recently however, the living descendants of House Telarel have explored, for the first time, the Regalian Empire, seeking to better establish a new stronghold to reclaim the lost power of their own blood and the Altalar superiority as a whole. House Telarel has risen in their ancestral homeland of Solleria, specifically in Milaan-Solleria and Anchal Sollen, under the single Telarel, Lithuandir.
House Telarel and the extended family of are a mixture between Solvaan and Teledden, depending on the exact root of their family history however it may change.
No matter the gender, members of House Telarel share biological similarities which adeptly unify the bloodline, making siblings, cousins, parents and grandparents all familiar with each other when it comes to appearance; it is easy to notice the resemblance. Anything besides the norm, even artificially, is seen as a negative aspect- with conformity a foundational aspect in the House's family governance. That being said, members of the family married in with unorthodox features are somewhat excused; though there is a preference entirely.
The male blood of House Telarel...
All share very similar appearances, with hair almost always blonde of varying shades from light silvers to warm golds and are generally pale in complexion. Their eyes are predominantly blue, though hints of green can occur but is seen as an impurity with the more conservative family members showing disdain for such an aspect. The men generally take more military roles, with their typical Solvaan education leaning more in the art of warfare than politics- though with flexibility and liberty to go as they please and as a result are generally more broader and stronger than their female counterparts.
The females of House Telarel...
Are almost the direct reflection of the men, though slightly shorter and less-broad physically. With the same golden hair shades presented, healthy skin tones and sapphire blue eyes- likewise with the green addition and symbolism behind it. A pale complexion but given time elsewhere in warmer and sunnier continents, a healthy tan is not unheard of and simply expresses one's desire to travel. The females take upon the more statecrafting and ruling roles though, akin to the males, have the freedom to pursue the avenue of their individual ambitions.
House Telarel, is not in recent ages, a Sollerian family, but rather a mixture between Tanaar and Sollerian ideals from the continent of Daen, more specifically Tanaar Ivaëlle. Lithuandir Telarel is the first in his family after the Cataclysm to journey and settle in Solleria after many long generations away. The condition of the extended Telarel bloodline is unknown with the rise of the Allorn Empire. Though what is known is the last few generations; with anything prior being more of a family secret and private:
House Telarel is a conservative and strict Altalar House based within Solleria, defined by an authoritarian and hegemonic rule, it offers a generous payment due to the harsh degree of employment filters. If you are not an Altalar or a neighboring culture, expect to be treated with little favor.
Each employment option adheres to a strict racial and cultural profile: All Nelflin varieties including Solstithar -but excluding other Kathar variants- Ithanians and Sollerian Anglians; anything else will have to be investigated more closely and determined on an individual basis. All roles, besides House Guard are flexible and welcome to be temporary or per individual contract.
That being said, the best and most effective way to inquire about employment is through an IC interaction, that being with myself, _Sundreamer_ primarily, with roles from House Guards, to scholars, architects and everything in between readily available. Contacting me specifically through Discord is a quick way to set something up!
