== Overview ==
House Veln (known within Cúrovi only as 'The Velners') were a Cúrovi family who ruled the kingdom since a momentous cultural revolution around 2,000 BG. Once simple warlords intent on dominating land, the family lost their humanity after generations of evil, deeply immersing themselves into the Dark Cúrovi Field. As well as being considered deities in their kingdom, they were afforded supernatural qualities such as long life in the process of their immersion in the field, but at the expense of disfigurement and disturbing distortions - especially The One (the head of the Velners' and ruler of the kingdom). Determining the nature of their rule became incredibly difficult given their long age, with succession rites occurring in bizarre ways. Nonetheless, it was known that upon the death of the present ruler, the eldest child would represent the Velners' divine authority, thereby conferring to them rule and ultimate power over the kingdom. Away from Cúrovi, members of House Veln outside of the leader of the kingdom were unknown lest they succeed the present ruler. Due to their unnatural long life, it was thought that the kingdom had at least 25 rulers by 301 AG. Different head of the Velners' (The One) were known for different things. For instance, Belỏr Veln was known to be among the most immersed in the Dark Cúrovi Field, experimenting with this the most. For his part, Kurbad Veln was notable for extending the kingdom's reach elsewhere, and his close relationship with his Council of Emissaries.
