House Tharashk

Second youngest of the Dragonmarked Houses, Tharashk is a human and half-orc House that bears the Mark of Finding. Renowned for its dragonshard (and other precious mineral) prospectors, bounty hunters, and Inquisitives, Tharashk is primarily based in the Shadow Marches, where it is the closest thing to a governing body the otherwise lawless territory has. Like all Houses, it also has a presence in areas throughout Khorvaire, however, especially Droaam, with whom it has an alliance. At present, Tharashk is the only House the Daughters of Sora Kell trust to broker the hiring of monstrous laborers and mercenaries from their growing nation, although House Deneith has long coveted such a relationship with Droamm to the point where the rivalry between the two Houses often escalates to sabotage and even assassination.
Unlike other dragonmarked houses, it is uncommon for a Tharashk House member to refer to themselves as "d'Tharashk". The use of a clan name is more prominent. The three main clans within Tharashk are Aashta, Torrn and Velderan. While these aren't the only clans that make up the House, smaller clans tend to be aligned with one of them. For the most part, each individual clan works together for the sake of the House, but powerful heirs, especially those who have never ventured outside of the Marches, have been known to put clan interests before those of the House which has led to many feuds, some of them bloody.
The guilds controlled by House Tharashk:
the Finders' Guild (bounty/monster hunters, Inquisitives, precious resource locators, etc)
the Liondrake's Roar (monstrous mercenaries and labor)
