House Vivenza

House Vivenza is a pureblood house of witches and occasional vampires that is well known for its lengthy history dating back to Ancient Rome and its survival of many historical events through the years. 
==History==
===Founding===
The original founders of the Vivenza house were Hamiscora and Similce Vivenza, who came to Rome about twenty years before the First Punic War because of a vision received by Hamiscora, who is said to have had the sight. In the vision, he was told to leave Carthage for Rome. It is unclear what else was in such vision, but speculation is that he was also told how to gain power in the city. Over the course of a few years, they established themselves and have thrived ever since. 
===Early History===
In their early days, they did favors for the rich of the city of Rome, slowly gaining name recognition and collecting favors until they called them in to create their house. From there, they were widely known as protectors of their community, both human and supernatural.

==Villa delle Acque Dorate==
The American estate lies some where on the Puget Sound in Washington. The exact location is unknown due to a number of wards placed on it, similar to those hiding the Italian side of the family's Estate. Those who aren't apart of the family and enter must go through a process to do so, and are sword to keep said process secret. Though, they aren't allowed to tell anything about the process to get in, they are allowed to speak on what the estate itself looks like, but don't ask them for the layout, as they won't actually remember much about it.
It has a mixture of Italian architectural features, as well as things from the 1800's era, and a few roman features here and there. The land they are on is large, and is close to the water, as the Vivenzas have always lived near some source of water. It is partly attributed to their extended time serving Neptune, as well as serving to be a place where the members of the family can practice. They also have specific places on the grounds for practicing other types of magic, such as a room to test wards in, and a pavilion for other general magic.
==Two Branches of the Same Tree==
The Vivenza Family has to branches of it, one in America, and one in Italy. Back in the mid 1800's, the house made the decision to split and create a place for themselves in the United States,

==Familial Abilities==
A true Vivenza is always determined on whether or not they have the hereditary ability of fire resistance, which is said to have been gifted to them by the god Neptune as thanks for their service to him. 
The house has an affinity for water magic, due to their history of worship towards Neptune, they can manipulate it and such. Even though they no longer worship Neptune, the practice of this magic was so ingrained into the family that they have a natural affinity for it. 
They also have an affinity for abjuration, specifically the sect of it that deals in protection magic (wards, shields, bindings, ect.), but they have a few who have delved into healing magic. Though, even with these specific affinities the members of the Vivenza family like to be experienced in quite a few other forms of magic.
