 * Belanor Hellfish
 * Isador Hellfish
 * Gregor Hellfish, deceased

Belanor Hellfish is the youngest of Lord Gregor Hellfish's children, and most likely his most disappointing. Both his older Brother, Teodor and his sister, Isador, dedicated themselves to the military in support of their father and the family's charitable reputation. Both Gregor and Teodor died during the war. His sister, gave up her seat at court to pursue a life of service and excellence. She is a lieutenant and still holds the record for marksmanship with a longbow. Isador is also the only person whom Belanor truly loves and trusts. Although she is embarrassed of his life choices, she is still protective of her little brother.

Little is known of Lady Hellfish, only that she died giving birth to Belanor. Which may account for his father's resentment. Also that she was not Isador's birth mother, although Gregor laid claim to her and all the rights to the Hellfish name.

THE FORTUNE
The Hellfish name is relatively new in the nobility. Belanor's family has its history as boatbuilders. His great-grandfather & grandfather owned a shipyard, (under a different name) but it was his father, Gregor, who set sail and made the Hellfish legacy. It was Lord Hellfish who pioneered new trade routes around the continent, and negotiated treaties within Amartain (ie: the Waerhaugs) and with distant lands (ie: The Kyru Islands). He was known as a gregarious host, a bold explorer and an enterprising businessman. (some say Unscrupulous)

The HIDDEN HARBOUR
There is rumour that part of Gregor's success is linked to a cove that he discovered escaping a tempest in the Bay of Storms. A happy accident that lead to a strategic haven for his base of operations. Untouchable by the war of the dead, "HellfishHarbour" (TBD) remains a well kept secret among pirates and smugglers to this day.

LORD HELLFISH @ court Gregor Hellfish used his business acumen to help fund the war, thus gaining a place at court. He continued to furnish boats for the navy and managed a very successful import and export business for goods*, as well as the transport of hundreds of war time refugees. He was a dedicated citizen hero and regarded as a charismatic leader.
 * some trade may have been illegitimate arms delivery or contraband smuggling. Allegedly.
