House Lucent

House Lucent of Steadfast is the ruling house of the Margraviate of Highmark. The crest of House Lucent is a white horse on red. Their ancestral runeblade is Strykewind. The current lady of the house is Margrave Archibald Lucent.
House Lucent commands a sizable military presence. Many notable generals and tacticians have come from House Lucent. The Lucents are known as swift, decisive leaders and combatants. House Lucent's wealth comes from their control of the railroad industry, iron mines, and engineering. The Lucents raise falcons, which they have used to establish a developed communication network. As their crest would suggest, the Lucents are also prominent horsemen.
The Lucents are a famously loud and boisterous family. They are commonly described as hard drinking, lustful, brash, fiery, shortsighted, passionate, and arrogant. They pride themselves on their fondness of love, battle, and alcohol. The Lucents are quick to argue and fight, but also quick to forgive. They are known to fight amongst themselves, although they are still a tight-knit family. The Lucents are loyal to the strong and the entertaining, and they are quick to follow anyone mighty or charismatic enough into battle. Their wild and independent streak makes them a force to be reckoned with.
While House Lucent is politically neutral, they are working towards securing an alliance with House Tyrith through a political marriage.
