Otomus (Parnak)

Otomus
Motto. "Faith and Sacrifice"
Crest. Three white and silver Iverian crosses in downward pointing vector formation on a green field
House Otomus is a house that has followed the Ayaten traditions and has by populace the most worshipers of Iveriu in the kingdom. The duchy borders the kingdom of Bicovaria to the west and a strong alliance between kingdoms was set into place primarily by the sacrifices and political negotiations headed up by House Otomus. More than any other duchy, the goal of peace has been the aim of Otomus.
Seat of Power. Tricross. A city built up from the ruins of a city which itself was built up from the ruins of a city. Each time a new city has come up, a new bridge has been built across the Maiden River, as a sign and gesture of peace with the kingdom on the opposite side of the river. New modern buildings stand alongside older buildings which stand in the shadows of ancient ones.
Current Duke. Aedard Otomus. A simple man of faith. His younger sister Marla is the high priestess of the Great Church of the Saint in the kingdom. He is a man of the people, but strangely he has never taken a wife. Many believe he is waiting for a wedding arrangement that would be politically beneficial to him while others think he might be a secret romantic awaiting love.
