The Name of the Noble: Merin, Former king of Handon.
The House of which said noble belongs: Land Stuck Fish.
Banner: A single, distressed looking blue fish on a plain white background.
Formerly the House of Crowns-the official house all kings automatically join-
Current Age of said Noble: 99
House History:
Originally from an obscure lesser house, but at the beginning of his campaign his home was devoured within a week by another lesser house. Merin renounced his family name, and all the benefits, land, allowance or deeds it may supply. On his escape he had two loyal followers, an old servant and a single knight whom swore to serve his family to his dying day and saw Merin as one of the only true members of it left in spirit.
With their help he managed to create a new Hovel house on which he campaigned with: The Land Stuck Fish. It claim to power being an out of date fishing harbor and a small manor whom he rented out its rooms to. He owned a tiny fraction of the land and the right to fish.
It was a joke really, no one took the house seriously but Merin was the kind of man who wore jokes well. The land Stuck fish has a strong history of charity with its stock and personally has funded many sailors. He loaned money for these exploits and his kind, forgiving debts compared to many other lenders lead to him being very popular. He sometimes gambled and lost sometimes, but his judge of character mostly won out and he wasn't without customers. In this way he managed to use these funds to slowly buy enough land to move himself up from Hovel to Lesser House.
What he lacks in land he had enough in raw finance to assure him that house prestige. He never had children.
Lands and Ownership: The Land Stuck Fish own a fishing harbor, a tiny manor and a farm. Despite this tiny amount he actually has 20 knights devoted to his name and 10 servants along with 5 acres of land in a radius around it.
Autobiographical Knowledge:
King Merin was a strange man who was never afraid to play by a different rule book. His biggest strength was his sincerity and his commitment to the truth. He turned down and offended many houses who tried to bargain with him marriage of their daughters all throughout his political career by telling the truth. The truth that he did not love them. This lack of manipulation, harsh ambition, or ruthlessness at the expense of others is a pattern that followed King Merin to the throne. He was popular with the non-noble community wherever he went.
Mingling in the inns, buying drinks, joking, donating, appearing at less important families events, and training fishers for free on how to better get their catches. He was emotional and energetic, a man on which the fairy tale idea of love and sincerity of the marital legal system was built long before he was born.
and his rule would be just as much as a fairy tale.
King Marin time as king is one of the true rules of peace to fall on Handon without controversy or debate. He was the kind of king who, despite the age of 80 would take the children at the local orphanage out trick and treating, put massive funding into communal grains and shacks for the homeless. Many may feel that King Marin lacked the foresight to ensure a bigger economical pay off for Handon, this is true. He was soft on the rod and the sword and always struggled to properly support either. The economy would still prosper but dipped in some areas which took years to recover,or be replaced, during the crisis he tackled.
In short. King Marin will be remembered as a wise king in times of need, built a civil infrastructure that supports the needy, but was a bit too soft for the more militaristic or authoritarian houses and let slip some important investments for long economic power for more civil minded and..sometimes..eccentric things like new holidays.
