House Ghal

== Overview ==
House Ghal is an ancient Volvarian house, widely renowned for their warriors and heroes. It existed as an old clan almost 300 years before the Del’s tore through Volvar, conquering all of the other clans. It started out as merely a common house, until its reformations made it into a house for the houseless. It became known as a House of the Redeemed.
==History==
House Ghal was founded by Ghal’Vuk, in the year 3E 451. House Ghal began simply as a bloodline house. It was made up of a mix of warriors, scholars, and mages. The house was a jack-of-all-trades, master of none house. This would change in the year 3E 728, when Ghal’Vuk’s distant relative would take the house seat.
Ghal’Dred brought about the reforms to the family. After he sought no kids of his own, and the family numbers dwindled by foolish duels against much stronger houses, he decided to take in those whose house rejected them, or those who had been disgraced. The House became known as a “House of Redemption”, the members would be those sent in the front lines of any large scale battle. They sought to redeem themselves in battle, whether it be dying for their kingdom, or coming out the other side and proving themselves as warriors who had been cleansed by blood.
Ghal’Dred would become known as a war hero, taking up the mantle of “Ghal’Dred the Redeemer”, from then on, various other war heroes would emerge from the house. Amongst them would be:
*Ghal’Vesar the Emblazoned, a fire mage known for burning House Ghal’s emblem into the torso of her enemies.
*Ghal’Gren the Impaler, famous for his use of polearms, and the incredible strength he’d display as he’d pierce through plate mail with ease. His war spear is a treasured heirloom of the house.
*Ghal’Deav the Impervious, she is known to have supposedly survived a direct hit from a dragon’s flame. She is regarded as many in House Ghal as the embodiment of Volvar’s strength of will. Ghal’Deav’s Charred Armor is another treasured heirloom of the house.
*Ghal’Miro the Oracle, he was a tactician said to be able to predict an enemy’s moves and plan completely around them. He only ever lost one battle, which would be his last as he’d perish in it.
