Blakfort Dynasty
The Blakfort Dynasty was founded by Kirk 'the Patriarch' although the family name probably predates him by a couple of generations.
The family is mostly made up of Lacrian members, although some of their offshoot branches intermingled with the local populace.
The Blakfort Dynasty originally ruled the lands of the kingdom with the same name, but the family managed to expand and gain additional territories on The Continent and beyond. These gains are all thanks to their contributions in the Holy Wars that took place between the Order and other, heretical factions, such as dark elves, orks and Kaos worshippers.
At first, the Blakfort family was following the Kaolite Faith, but a holy war started by Atacodia forced them to convert to The Church of Order.
