House Frey is a Stormwindian Noble House that came about in the year 629 K.Y. when Cyrellian Frey, the leader of a mercenary band, took to the mountains comprising the Duchy of Highmarch and pushed out the remnant Blackrock Orcs, Trolls, Ogres, Gnolls and bandits that had been living within the area and preying on the villages.

For Cyrellian's diligence in serving the Crown and reclaiming the land of his own volition, with no seeming monetary gain to be seen, and the costs directly coming from his own coffers, he was granted nobility and a barony within the Duchy. Shortly thereafter, the neighboring barons of Redhaven and Whitehold took to scheming against the newly risen House, spreading rumors throughout the Kingdom of their dishonorable ways, treacherous heritage, and common roots. Conflict erupted within the region after an assassination attempt on a member of House Frey that ended in the Crown revoking the titles of Redhaven and Whitehold, granting them instead to House Frey and an elevation in title to Marquis of Highroad. Eventually the Duchy of Highmarch was reunited when Marquis Cyrellian Frey of Highreach and Marquis Fragan Trahaern of Rustfall came to an accord with the Crown and the Ducal Title was entrusted to House Frey, and with it the duty of protecting the Duchy and several of the mountain passes between the Kingdom and the Burning Steppes.
