House Bloodfire

Sigil of House Bloodfire

House Bloodfire is the royal family and rulers of Xerros.

**History**

After the fall of the Shang-Jir Empire, an enormous caravan of humans led by the Phoenix Knight, Xerros Bloodfire, journeyed west until they crossed Gaigadon's Backbone and reached the plains that would be founded as the new home for the settlers. In honor of their leader, Xerros was claimed King and the lands named after him. That marked the first year of the new year of The Age of Wonders, a dynasty that would last near 1,000 years before Draxxus attacked the realm, killing King Cygnus Bloodfire IV. His son, Xerros Bloodfire VI would claim the throne and start a new dynasty, The Age of Heroes, named after The Seven who rose up to protect the kingdom from the undead forces. Today, the kingdom is ruled over by the sickly and senile Tyrus Bloodfire.
