Barthan Varynthiel:

Yet to meet.  

Seline Varynthiel:

House representative, Steward of Civic Celebrations

A whirlwind of energy wrapped in velvet and silk, Seline is always halfway through planning three events at once, and excited about all of them. She’s talkative, charming, and easily sidetracked, but somehow every gathering she touches ends up dazzling. Whether organizing state dinners, seasonal festivals, or “tastefully humble” noble birthdays, she brings joy and polish in equal measure.   Role: As a House Varynthiel representative and event coordinator for Illumé’s domestic affairs, Seline is responsible for the cultural heartbeat of the city. She works closely with Houses, guilds, and civic officials to ensure events reflect Illumé’s refinement and unity. Though not especially politically driven, she often ends up at the center of political scenesm, usually because she’s planned them.   Player interaction: She met Aerith and Aegaelion at the meeting for the Hall of Crafts and Industry. She made the proposition, but was disappointed it did not make it through Concord. She was however happy to hear the opinions of Aerith and Aegaelion during the meeting. Her and her brother invited them to the Varynthiel party after the meeting. At the party she played Spell Shot Roulette with the party and Lyanna Lytharion.  

Caladris Varynthiel:

House representative, Envoy of Forward Accord

Clear-eyed and confidently articulate, Caladris speaks like someone who's practiced for a debate and means every word. He believes diplomacy should be honest, practical, and forward-facing, not bogged down in tradition or veiled threats. Always well-groomed, ever prepared, and occasionally too earnest, he’s often the youngest in the room, yet rarely overlooked.   Role: As a House Varynthiel representative and junior diplomat, Caladris serves as an envoy for external relations and long-term civic collaboration. Unlike many nobles, he’s more interested in what Illumé could become than preserving what it is. He sees treaties as tools for progress and alliances as moral compacts, not just power plays. His clarity and fairness have earned him a small but growing reputation as a future leader.   Player interaction: He met Aerith and Aegaelion at the meeting for the Hall of Crafts and Industry. He and his sister invited them to the Varynthiel party after the meeting. He also seems to be good friends with Dirgle Shimmerforge
