### Family History

House Ondas is a relatively new noble house within Escharia. Their lands, the mountains that now comprise Ondastahl, were first settled by Ekestus Khonduin who then made a name for himself and rose to be an Akesor and Senator in the Escharian Empire. The name of this house refers back to the mountain of Ondas which is also where the City 'Ondastahl' takes its name from.
House Ondas is less than one hundred years old yet rests as a stable entity in Escharia's east. This family takes pride in their tenacity and wisdom. As a family that is prominently Soleannen, this house embodies what the God Domari stands for by being hard workers, master craftsmen, and savvy traders.

### Kin of House Ondas

#### Ekestus Khonduin:

Ekestus Khonduin is the founder of House Ondas. Although he does not have the last name 'Ondas' he currently lives as the head of the house. His full Title is "Akesor Ekestus Khonduin, Lord of Ondastahl, Wise Senator, and Head of House Ondas". He is now roughly 60 years old with long red hair and blue eyes. He is also recognizeable for his dwarvish features. He is smaller than most (roughly 5'6") and has a bushy light bronze beard that flows down into a point just reaching his belly. There are small patches of grey in his hair and beard, however his childlike athleticism remains.

He is now a fairly well-known man within Escharia, however, he started off unknown to the world. Ekestus Khonduin is a Half-Niedene Half-Dwarf. His father was a Dwarf and his mother a Niedene. He was born in the West of Rathnir with no fame and little wealth to call his own. He always felt separated between the cultures of his father and mother so he decided that when he was older he'd travel the world, learn about both sides of himself and then attempt to make a name for himself. In time, he travelled across Rathnir, visiting places like Yimmu Audal, the former lands of Huitca, Bardonia and so on until he reached a mountain that had been cratered by an unknown force. He took this as an incredible opportunity to settle and begin a new life. He named the Mountain Ondas as it was an incredible mountain.

Quickly, Ekestus was approached by two members of the Escharian Watch who told him he had settled on the lands of Escharian land and that he would need to either vacate and abandon his settlement or accept being ruled by the Escharian emperor Herod. He decided to accept being ruled as he wanted to continue his settlement in such a unique landscape. After this, he chose the name of his new settlement "Ondastahl".

Over time, Ondastahl grew from a small settlement to a village then into a city that had many people trading, bulding, guarding and so on. He decided the city needed something to stand out, so he made preparations for a project that would make Ondastahl a fortress city with a massive blackstone fortress as its centerpiece. He began the construction right away and roughly ten years later it was complete. He designed the fortress to be not only a strongly defensible place but also a shrine to Domari which quickly became the religious representation of what Ondastahl embodies ideologically. After that, other major construction projects began such as the Church and meeting hall. Ondastahl was finally becoming a city rightful for an Akesor and Senator to the Escharian royal court.

The development of Ondastahl had always been Ekestus's number one focus, however, as the years went by he realized he needed a succession plan. Therefore, he began the promotion of his house by being an active bachelor for others looking to join his prestigious house.

#### Auvanti Ondas

Son of Ekestus, 21 years old with yellow hair and blue eyes. This Niedene is one of two sons that were adopted by Ekestus in the year 1700 and taken in to be the beginning of the future line of the House Ondas.

#### Matus Ondas

Son of Ekestus, Matus is fairly young at 17 and is the other adopted son to Ekestus that was taken in by the year 1700.

#### Marxiteris (The Wise) Ondas

Lost biological son to Ekestus, Marxiteris had lived 20 years without knowing his father was the lord of Ondastahl. After months of turmoil within himself, he accepted his lineage and took the Ondas alongside his two brothers. Currently, Marxiteris is 20 years old but holds his own titles and duties within the Escharian state. He is the mayor of Amalais in the Eastern part of Escharia as well as being a knight of the 'Wearers of Purple'. As a result, Marxiteris has become renowned within the Aerene province of Escharia and has made friends and allies with countless powerful people.
