The ORIVON family has been a long-standing family under the banner of Rhone. Ennobled in -187, the ORIVON family has remained a fixture in the south for many generations since.
Structure
Lord Sedras Orivon lives in the family Seat, Rivol Tower. His sister, Mesili Orivon, is married to one of the family's vassal knights and she lives with her husband at their manor on the Orivon lands. Her infant son resides with her. The third-born, Tudhel Orivon is squired to the west and is believed to be knighted just prior to the Eventide Tournament in mid-summer.

History
The ORIVON family was ennobled when King Rhuaman established the principles of vassalage in Rhone. Their founder, Rivol Orivon was one of the first to be sworn to the King and granted lands & title. Since that time, the ORIVON family's fortunes have waxed and waned.
Demography and Population
Approximately 390 families (~1950 persons) between directly controlled settlements and subordinate fiefs.
Military
Lord ORIVON has recently expanded his retinue with the addition of a household knight. Other than that, given the settled lands in the south, he maintains just enough for a garrison at the tower and village.
