Merynir

the Merynir family are descendants of first settlers in Marn. They are a politically significant family.

A family whose primary concern is their network of businesses, they are focused on expanding their wealth and corresponding power at any cost. They are not entirely interested in politics except as it affects their trade, and while their practices make them nearly universally disliked they do not care except for those who interfere with their trade. For that reason any descendant family who is instrumental to the guard (such as Oslun) has earned their grudge. They are known for their connections outside of Marn, as well as their wealth. They've been at the heart of rumors of trade scandals, as well as the rise or fall of any number of merchant families. Still, despite their bad reputation, not much has ever been proven.

There are, however, some members in the family who do have political ambitions. These are encouraged when they occur, though it is not expected. The Merynir family is very large, and as is often the case with children who grow up with rich parents, there are any number of younger members who coast by in life trailing from party to party. The Merynirs are a family of excess and indulgence socially, though they are as cutthroat as any other when it comes to business dealings.

Their primary enemy is the Oslun family. Their primary ally is the Morrington family, with a strong secondary ally in Moryldar.
