Dragonmark

House Lyrandar possesses the Mark of Storm. This dragonmark grants its bearers various magical abilities including control of elements of storms including wind, water, lightning, and thunder. They also are able to control water and air elementals and many with the Mark of Storm naturally speak and understand Primordial.

House Industry

Lyrandar was one of the Houses who had established a strong industry prior to the Last War. Utilizing bound elementals to power specialized ships, Lyrandar quickly took over the shipping industry. This industry only got stronger during the war as they made contracts with every one of the Five Nations. In this way, they can be compared to the East India Trading Company.
On top of this, Lyrandar uses its Mark of Storm to control weather, taking money from nations and wealthy barons to ensure good weather, or rain down storms on their enemies. Recently, Lyrandar has made inroads into the transportation industry with the invention of the airship. By binding air elementals with new, light-material wooden ships, Lyrandar successfully invented air-travel. However, they are now edging in on House Orien's monopoly of speedy transit.
