The Ruling Families
Axlypios
Healing VipersLiving to the West of the Sunset Plains on the shores of the Broken Sea a somewhat hot and fairly arid region, they are mainly known for their great healers and scholars. While they're a very wealthy family they choose not to truly rule, leaving it to the people to elect a leader who sometimes consults them for their wisdom on certain matters. They are bonded with Daemons, large snake creatures with a bite that counteracts every other venom and poisons.
Hae Viyn
Lords of the Hidden PalaceKnown for many great scholars and warriors the Hae Viyn live in the hidden city, Naos Daqi, somewhere in Hii'Xai's dense Everrain Wood. Somewhat wary of outsiders they are nevertheless traditonally courteous and friendly. Their bonds with the Soul Lights and tendencies towards illusion magic have earned them something of an ethereal reputation.
Madadh
The Hounds of the Pines The long time rivals of the Rey family and well known for their vicious warriors, the Madadh have little use for war magic and generally disdain it as a tool of weaklings. They have few allies but they are fiercely loyal to those few historically. Their bonded Hellhounds are terrifying foes, but comforting allies.Myshneov

Rey
Rulers of the Golden RockWith their Horned Cats the Rey family rose to power quickly from a castle called Golden Rock they rule the Sunset Plains as well as portions of the Glass Desert and Everrain Wood. As they own some of the most fertile land in Uhldrenn they are immensely wealthy, with Golden Rock being their greatest symbol of this. They have many notable warriors and legendary figures having had many many great wars particularly against the Hae Viyn, Velenizi, and Madadh families. They have an affinity towards fire magic traditionally with some claiming that they are favored by the All-Devourer.
Skiathin
Wings of the NorthwindBorn of death and fire, the Skiathins are Dragonriders, being a newer great family to rise to power their origins are more well known, with the first Skiathin king having been a peasant who overthrew a king and then an emperor from the back of a dragon. Traditionally they prefer peace and adventure to war, though they have had their share of conquering kings and queens. Their dragons are their pride and perhaps grant them outsized influence over other families considering the sheer power that a single dragon holds, especially one of the Skiathin's bonded beasts.
