House of Razuklano

The **House of Razuklano** are the rulers of Izelgara, one of several Loyalist districts in the urbanised planet of Rukthan. All of their members are Kuelgons.

## Members

### Elbonja

Elbonja is the current leader of the House of Razuklano. He is Oraitaq's husband and the father of Chandaelje and her sisters.

### Oraitaq

Oraitaq was Elbonja's wife and Chandaelje's mother.

She was murdered by a rival gang leader, causing Elbonja and his daughters to slaughter him and his members.

### Chandaelje

Chandaelje Razuklano is Elbonja's and Oraitaq's eldest daughter.

She is obsessed with showing off her noble fashion while slashing foes with her sabre and claws. When she sees enemies, she runs to slay them - so they fear her!

### Boatiqva

Boatiqva "GET OVER HERE" Razuklano is the second daughter.

Her power is having claws that can be launched as a grappling hook. To reach longer distances and avoid risking pain from regrowing cut claw-tendrils, she wears gloves with grappling claws.

She also has a faster brain, allowing her to understand and translate many languages, so her parents sent her to work as a translator.

### Trescheru

Trescheru is the third daughter.

A jack of more trades, she is a sharpshooter, a spellcaster, and a mechanic.

### Banchje

Banchjê Razuklano is the youngest daughter.

She is the most adept in magic of all of her sisters, owing to her stronger devotion to the Gods. And she is the kindest of the four - but not so, if she encounters an evildoer.

### Lijambu

Lijambu is a blue tiger-like creature that works as an usher and a security guard, especially for important guests.

Although he is brutish and strong, he is very affectionate and playful: but if he sees his friends being hurt, he will beat up their enemies. One of his weapons is a metallic glove that draws anything it targets to it or pushes anything attached to it.

Lijambu is notorious for being a very clumsy and stupid feline, if not an overgrown pet. Every time he sees fish, he runs to it, even if it means pushing aside anyone in his way and making a mess.

### Jolqorin

Jolqorin was Banchje's childhood doll. After the death of Banchje's mother, the doll was rebuilt as an adult-like robot and infused with magic to train her to defend herself.

## Historical members and ancestors

### Mimarithsoz Everfleeting

Mimarithsoz was a young aristocrat who fled from a great war in Kuelgon, taking a lot of money with him. He was part of the richer members of society, and he started a family with a film actress. But since the night before his wedding, he started to fear the reptilian statues given as gifts to his future wife.

For defiling a sacred pool, he was cursed to become a dragon, along with all of his children. That "curse" instead turned out to be the sea god Makravalas' greatest gift, so subsequent generations venerated the Father of Dragons as their patron.

### Athalraivjoz

The eldest son of Mimarithsoz, and the only one of his three sons who did not "die" (the other two were taken to Heaven on a flock of ravens, and disappeared at midnight). At his fortieth birthday, he was permanently transformed into a winged dragon, and he flew away to a hidden land beyond the ocean.

His branch became the family of Valdradil, Elbonja, and Chandaelje. Sometimes, he does return to the Temple of the Three Kings to pay his respects to his heavenly guardians, where the Razuklanos greet him and ask him about his adventures across the ocean.

### Valdradil

Valdradil was Elbonja's great-grandfather. He sponsored his city's first aspirants in over three hundred years: Tim the Illustrious and the Soul of Horror.

## Guardians

* Qor Ledqôrmar - Captain of the Guard, he and his assassins are the bodyguards who keep the Razuklanos safe to avenge Elbonja's wife.
* Meqil and Samekki - two guards who were cursed to become immortal, after they were seized by an evil Celestial for trying to free the latter's prisoners. They managed to kill that Celestial in his dimension, and they fought their way out, only to find that a hundred years have passed since their disappearance. They aid anyone who finds them, from lost wanderers to young Hunters, as they try to find a way to return home.
	+ When they did return, Qor and his men knelt down to honour them, simply for being older than Qor's group by a hundred years.
* Yuzel Loimari - A huge female robot who stands in front of the Razuklano palace. When she was not guarding the palace, she leads her cohort of Crabmallet Sentinels to slay the ghosts in the underdepths of the city. Her hammer, "Exorcist's Fist", was forged from Celestial technology, allowing it to tear ghosts apart with each crush.

## Abilities

The chief members of the House of Razuklano have the usual shapeshifting and long claws of all other Rukthaneh Kuelgons. In addition to these, they are able to transform into dragons. In their reptilian state, the Razuklanos can tear demons and ghosts with their claws and rip them apart with their jaws. They also can just swim in the air like the loong, without needing wings - their gills allow them to soar.

Their power to turn themselves into dragons was originally a curse by the god Makravalas towards their ancestor, Mimarithsoz, for defiling a sacred pool in a drunken party - he became the very thing he feared the most, a dragon. His curse later affected all of his children, but it instead made them more attractive as they reached adulthood.

## Trivia

* The members of the Razuklano family were inspired by various characters from horror videogames in 2021-2022.

	+ Chandaelje may be based on Yuri, especially her depiction in Zanimation's short "Boyfriend vs. Monika" as a swordswoman.
