House Tarrenhol

**Head of House**
Livia Tarrenhol
Desmond Tarrenhol,
 **Holdings**
March of Avercroft

**House Tarrenhol** is a Lordaeronian noble house that lost everything in the destruction and fall of Lordaeron, and have since moved to Stormwind, acquiring the County of Avercroft through marriage in September 637 K.C. to Lady Livia of House De Vere. Recently Lord Daevren was issued an edict by the Duke of Wyndamere to fortify the County, thus officially renaming the County to the March of Avercroft.

The Tarrenhol's, while infamous for squiring young would-be Knights to the Crown, maintained some land a short ride from Brill in addition to some more substantial land to the far east of Lordaeron along the coast, within the County of Dietenbeck. It was Sir Justin Tarrenhol's unwavering dedication and service to the Crown, and in routing out the bandits as well as other criminals from Brill and its surrounding areas that saw these lands officially inherited in the year 570 K.C.

Nearly a year or so had passed in which the Baron wed his long time lover Ginny, a lowborn farmer's daughter he had met many years before, and presented her as the new Baroness of Ravenshire. Within the year they were blessed with their first son, Davric, and a year after that they had yet another son, Veneric. By the time they had hoped to conceive more children, they'd become too occupied with ushering new families to the Barony and helping them get settled. Peace and prosperity did wonders and continued through out the land.

Some time after, in the year 592 K.C, Lord Davric takes a wife by the name of Leana, to which they conceive their first son Daevren, born in 595 K.C. It would be several years later before they were able to conceive again, as the Tarrenhol family endures years of strife and loss.

## Current Times

Lord Daevren and his private counsel, Lord Vorrendal, travel fairly consistently throughout the lands of Avercroft meeting and hearing the needs of its people. He has also been seen spending a good deal of time in the town of Halton, establishing something of a minor political seat within the town hall and overseeing its building expansion to include an office and more seating as the county's population continues to increase.

He and the Marchioness do their best to rendezvous at their manor in northern Avercroft as the loving couple are eager to begin having a family of their own.
