Founded in the aftermath of House Zarovet's treachery, House Filendus seems to have always lived in the shadow of that ignominy. Still, this has not prevented the small Three-Rivers House from prospering, particularly as their lands are rich in ore, and they boast several mines of iron and silver.

Members of the House
Lord Caesmyr Filendus Head of House • 59 years As a boy, Caesmyr's bookish tendencies and quiet manner let others dismiss him easily. In the midst of young, boasting knights and nobles, he was a quiet, bespectacled wallflower, easy to forget. As he got older, however – particularly once he inherited the lordship of House Filendus – others quickly came to realize that while he'd been quiet, he'd also been watching. Though he works subtly, the whispers are very clear on the topc: Caesmyr Filendus deals in information and secrets. He is a keenly insightful judge of character, with his insight growing only sharper as he got older. | |
Lady Yndeva Filendus Consort • 53 years An absolute master of comportment and etiquette, Lady Yndeva has instructed at the Bower, where the Crownsmaids are taught their genteel arts. Though she doesn't hold the sort of social clout that some more influential noblewomen do, she is an acknowledged pinnacle of propriety. Ladies from across the Crowndom vie to get their daughters into Yndeva's household as handmaidens for a few years, both for the lessons in manner and the less-public skills in intrigue they inevitably pick up there. As a result, Yndeva has a number of surprising contacts among the young noblewomen of a great many houses. | |
Stalwart Dame Aumera Filendus Heir • 31 years Dame Aumera is a knight-cavalier of good standing with the Order of the Shield Crimson, an order of knights-cavalier with a somewhat sinister reputation. Though their brutality is legendary, they are careful to keep it just within the bounds of what is acceptable, although no one doubts that the bloodthirsty and grasping Shield Crimson knights will take every opportunity to make opponents on battlefield or tourney-grounds suffer. Aumera is everything her father was not: strong, passionate, and socially adroit, although her humor and charm are more of a soldier's than a noble lady's. At current, Aumera is unmarried and seems disinclined to ever become so. | |
Næuso Filendus Head's Secondborn Son • 29 years Charming in salons and arcadae in a way his sister never could be, Næuso is a notable politician, shaped as he was by his mother's acument and connections, and his father's sharp perceptions and learning. Næuso has served in the court of the Warden of Three-Rivers, and currently acts as his father's steward. | |
Larian Filendus Head's Thirdborn Son • 23 years Larian was apprenticed to a magus early on, and once he reached his age of majority, he joined the prestigious Obelisk, a cabal of the Wise who specialize in Imperial history and warding magics. Larian has only recently returned from extended time at the Obelisk's sanctum in Crownhold, and has wasted no time protecting his House and family with his sorceries. | |
Hisperia Filendus Næuso's Consort • 30 years A landed knight's daughter, Hisperia and Næuso met while they were both at the court of Lord Artoran Kylevrus, the Warden of Three-Rivers. Hisperia's smiling nature and fun-seeking spirit enchanted Næuso almost immediately, and the two have been inseparable since. | |

History
- 330 CR: House Filendus is founded around Filendus Zarovet, the sole survivor of the treacherous House Zarovet.
- 480 CR: Caesmyr Filendus becomes Lord of House Filendus, and petitions House Durwald for Gemma's hand in marriage. Her father Arovet begins discussion with the stronger House Filendus, but her mother Xinesta refuses to consider Caesmyr, whom she considers grasping and spoiled.
- 481 CR: Gemma and Ludogranz are wed quickly by Xinesta's scheming, while Arovet is still in negotiations with House Filendus. In a fury, Caesmyr Filendus invents an excuse to declare vendetta against House Durwald. This begins six years of border skirmishes between the Houses.
- 519 CR: Present Day
