House of Tracan

The House of Tracan is the royal house of the Kingdom of Prailor. The house has existed since 9740 BDR, making House Tracan one of the oldest families on the planet, but only came to power over Prailor in 2816 BDR when the kingdom became independent.

They are incredibly popular within their kingdom, stemming from the fact that they were responsible for Prailor gaining its independence four thousand years ago. In addition, they are more connected to the people than most royalty, spending relatively little on themselves when compared to other royal houses, and frequently giving audiences to the public. Their popularity is the only reason they remain in power, as if they were deposed by the Strian Empire, Prailor would almost certainly revolt.

Most members of the house have died horrible deaths, with very few dying of natural causes. This is often referred to as the "Tracan Curse", and many believe it was caused by a priestess of Umbros that put a hex on the family thousands of years ago. There is, of course, no evidence to support this, but it remains a popular legend nonetheless.
