House Setanta
"The House of Dogs sits at the foot of the King, and there is no where we would rather be!"
History
House Setanta was founded by one of the eight Companions of The Highlander, and according Setanta was young wildman and warrior. He was the "loyal dog" of the Highlander, a man of sheer loyalty and ferocity who would do anything from deliver his messages to the other Companions and villages to face down an entire army of Elves single handedly during the Great Revolution. With his teeth bared, bare chested, and a burning lance in hand; Setanta was always the first in and the last out in any battle that he participated
According to legend, he was one of the first Humans to master Green Magic and was a talented shapeshifter with preferred form being that of a wolf. More heretical scholars claim that he was not a proper Human but one of the first Shifters born from a bargain with Lord Vosegus Donon, while other maintain that he was a Werewolf; regardless of who you believe his affiliation with wolves, dogs, and other canines is indisputable. Thus why his family heraldry, the knights, and knightly orders sworn to him had some sort of wolfish symbolism in their banners. House Setanta namely was a gray wolf splashed against a green and white background with black crossed spears.
House Setanta itself persisted for 2000 years under House Highlander and the Kingdom of man, continuing its service as "Dogs of the King". The Main Family and the Orders beneath it ranged from Elf Hunters to Monster Hunters, chasing down the prey and enemies of the Kingdom. When the Great Rebellion came, their House was one of the first to fall as they charged in head first to face down the enemies of their King.
