House Redwater

House Redwater of the Bloodlands is one of the Great Houses of the Idran and rules the Redwater. Their sigil is three red swirling currents of water with silver blades above each of them against a the dull blue reflecting the Ebontide. Their words are "Our Tides, Our Blood." The Redwaters are the chief House ruling the south since the fall of the Caerion land ruling the previous Arcanna. Lord Padlin Redwater took the opportunity and cut their support to assume control of the western Ebontide. Ultimately they failed as the Arcanna was consumed by the Azimur without the House Caerion and was renamed Carathdur. Eventually it was sealed off by the Idran after the razing of Sunbasa. During the War of the Dawn, House Redwater was feared as a savage adversary and yet carried little respect for their tendencies towards foul activities such as whoring, a particular susceptibility to disease, and generally unhealthy appearance. Members have standard features such as brown and black hair and brown eyes.

House Blackwater
House Blackwater is a house derived from House Redwater by Volhin the Red. The term is coined by Herceus Chrane who notes after Volhin the Red slashes his banner, his previous colors were "blacked out," for the Udin black. After House Redwater is devestated by Sir Volhin, the remnants and supporters alike swear fealty to Sir Volhin. Following this to save him from the Thanons, Alnair legitimizes him as Lord Volhin Blackwater.
