Athalanta

This family nane was originally 'Cassalanter',lifted from when I ran WD:DH. That name appears on this wiki but has been retconned.
The Athalanta family was an Euluskan noble house ancestrally from Athay and Deralth in the Fallo, who also later rose to great prominence in Felonil. 
They were tycoons, industrialists, and lords of oil and horses. They later helped drive the industrial revolution, during which they gave their name to various legendary handguns like the Mk3 Revolver. At the turn of the 16th century, they allied with the wealthy mercenaries known as the Naysayers, but cut ties after the 1502-4 Felonil Riots. They began expanding their oil empire soon after, becoming highly wealthy. They built several drilling plants in The Danderillon, the most notable of which was CK&T. The mercenaries known as the Last Crusaders, ordered by Papa Warad, killed Vittoro, patriarch of the family in 1504 to try to stop their expanse. His son and successor, Amelio Atalanta, led Felonil to independence, serving as its last Polemarch from 1507-1514. He was hailed as a hero of the city's freedom.
Just after the fall of the Empire and the early years of free Felonil, the Atalanta family had to sign over many of their businesses to the Calinezzi mafia.
