The Lionhiron Dynasty {English}

They are the oldest known dynasty in all of Telamirein, widely known for their deeds and acts but the crown achievement they are known for is their long and most of the time unchallenged rule over Kingdom of Ravero. Their kings have ruled fair for all recorded time. However... the victor writes the history after all.
— Everam, Teller of Nimenra
Lionhiron have both been feared and respected by many different people. Even if they rule only the Kingdom of Ravero, they have been the most responsible for its stability and power. Having ruled as absolute and just leaders over both the country and their family, not many have tried to challenge them as they have had much of the peoples support, even among the nobility of Ravero.

Structure

Most of the time the King of Ravero has been the family and dynasty head with few exceptions. As the king has most say in Ravero, going against him while most of the time does not end well. While being the family and dynasty head they are responsible for the family as a whole, that there is no family murdering, no "unintentional" trips or bastard children that claim family relations. This responsibility is in a way an extension of being the leader of a family, resolving conflicts and preventing new ones. Most of the time this is related to close family and not beyond three or more generations backwards and forwards.
The most famous example of a king not being the head of the family is Askon Lionhiron, who was the house head over both his younger brother who he passed the throne to and his nephew, his second nephew and eventually over his son who became king when Askon was in his 60s.

Assets

Several servants, castles and the whole kingdom of Ravero is mostly under the families control. While this wealth is most in material, coin and gold are still in abundance for the family. Their family, private troop count separated from the country army is, however, unknown.
