Cunningham Clan

The **Cunningham Clan** of the *City of Lennoch* is a Great House of Fantasica, ruling over the vast region known as The Eastern Lands. It's current ruler is Lord Atticus Cunningham, with his youngest son, Lord Wilbert Cunningham being his heir. This Great House can track its ancestral lineage through many of the eldest Clans of Fantasica, it is also noteable to note that all Clans whose surname ends with "Ham" will have a Cunningham ancestor in their own lineage. The Cunningham's are in support of the Siegel Stronghold, but hide their allegiance to them.

## History

### Background

Wilbert Cunningham was the founder of the Cunningham Clan, having found it during the Doncaster reign. He served well with House Doncaster, but did not respect their ways. It is noted heavily that when the Siegel's took over, the Cunningham Clan showed a greater interest in becoming a part of the realm. They rose to power, and turned Lennoch into a wondrous city and castle.

### Kings and Queens

The Cunningham Clan become the most powerful of all clans in *Kings and Queens*. They also break their own family lineage barrier with Wilbert V Cunningham marrying Esmeralda Cunningham of the House of Messer. The pair end up having children, twins Arabella and Atticus. Queen Isolde Winchester, with the help of Lady Esme and Zelena East, murder Anabel Messer, which starts the War for the Serpentine Throne. The Cunningham's also gain powerful alliances with families who had never thought to ally themselves with the Clan. They also gain control of the Serpentine Throne through Wesley Winchester.
