Guerrin family

The Guerrin family is a noble family from Ferelden, claiming the Arling of Redcliffe as well as the Bannorn of Rainesfere. They hold the fortress at Redcliffe, one of the most strategically vital points of Ferelden's defense.
== History ==
The Guerrin family rose to greater prominence during the Orlesian occupation of Ferelden. Initially they submitted to the Orlesians, not believing that King Brandel Theirin was capable of organizing an effective resistance. However once Queen Moira Theirin succeeded her father as the leader of the rebellion, she was able to galvanize the many dissenters within the country forming a real opposition to the Orlesians. Eventually deciding she needed Arl Rendorn Guerrin's aid, Queen Moira at no small risk to her person, allowed herself to be captured by the Arl's troops. Rendorn refused to turn her over to the Orlesians and eventually she was able to convince him to join the rebellion outright. Rendorn sent his two sons, Eamon and Teagan to the Free Marches for safety, while his daughter Rowan stayed behind to assist him in the campaign.Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne, Chapter 4. 
At a young age, as part of a political alliance, Prince Maric Theirin was betrothed to Rowan and the two grew closer over the years. Rendorn and his daughter Rowan both came to have a major impact on the rebellion, with Rendorn acting as the leader for the rebel armies and Rowan serving on the front lines as a knight. It was Rowan who rescued Maric and a young Loghain Mac Tir from the Korcari Wilds and she later went on to kill Felix, the cousin of the Orlesian usurper King Meghren in battle.Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne, Chapter 5, 6. 
Rendorn's eldest son, Eamon Guerrin, was appointed Arl of Redcliffe after the war and became a powerful and well liked figure in the Landsmeet while his younger brother, Teagan Guerrin was named Bann of Rainesfere.
Arl Eamon married an Orlesian noble woman named Isolde who was a member of the Orlesian family which had been appointed to Redcliffe. Despite their vastly different backgrounds, the two fell in love and married, a matter which caused no small amount of controversy so soon after the occupation had ended.

* When first introduced in the book Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne, Rowan's last name is spelled as 'Guerein'.
