Declaen Caldeth
Earl Declaen Caldeth
Minarsas Castle dominates the Vemion River valley in eastern Kaldor. The original Keep was built by the Kingdom of Arwn atop an ancient Khuzan and Jarin trading post. It was then rebuilt in 168 as a royal castle by King rsin of Pagostra.
The castle is the seat of Earl Declaen Caldeth, a clever and powerful figure in Kaldor. He is married to the invalid Lady Ialny Valador and has three children. His oldest daughter, Lady Thilisa, is married to Earl Sedris Meleken of Qualdris. His son, Sir Urian, is a fine, tall figure of a Knight, known more for his fighting prowess han his wisdom. Camissa, the youngest, is recently of marriageable age and her father is Cautious about suitors.
Caldeth is an ancient Jarin clan, synonymous with Vemionshire for many generations. Since the clan has no claim to the throne itself, the earl is an attractive ally to claimants. The cautious Sir Declaen is aware that King Miginath’s best plans may go awry. He maintains an extra company of mercenaries and has large reserves of Silver. His strongholds are maintained in top condition; repairs are currently being made to the west wall of Minarsas keep. In the event of civil war, the earl would sooner see an independent Pagostra than a weakly ruled Kaldor.
Vemionshire is an isolated but prosperous Sheep region. The annual Minarsas Wool Fair is one of the largest commercial events in Kaldor.
