oO0{Faulkner Family History}0Oo
House Faulkner and its close allies can trace their roots back to the years of the old empire, during the last few decades in its fast and bloody decline as the dominant power in the galaxy. During the Terror Wars, when the capitol was sacked and the rest of the Empire* was locked in civil war, Legatus Torquil Faulkner lead his battered legion and fleet into the Ganar Cloud, which at the time was uncolonized space and considered dangerous frontier territory. The trip was brutal, as the Ganar Cloud is full of navigational hazards such as dense asteroid storms, and a supergiant that had recently gone nova. Torquil and his tired army landed at an uncolonized planet that they named "Bastion" and it was to be their last stand against whatever enemies came, be it invading barbarian aliens or an opposing imperial faction. (It would later be renamed Torquil's Bastion) However, very few enemies followed them into the Ganar cloud and gave up Legatus Faulkner and his troops for dead. As the wars ended and the galaxy fell into a dark age, refugees from the wars came to the Ganar Cloud and the legion accepted them. Faulkner's legion and the refugees spread to the other star systems in the Ganar cloud and Faulkner's officers went on to establish the other noble houses. In the centuries following that period, all the other Houses have seen the Faulkner House as their savior and have rallied to them when times of war or strife arose.
*For those of you who are wondering, the old Empire is NOT the GRE. Though I may have recycled a few ideas, this is not the same universe. Dirdelks do exist in this timeline and galaxy, however. : 3
More history may come later.

Looks like Tiberius is the new lord of the house now that Colton just died against my robot. =P
Well, assuming a patriarchal form of inheritance. If its merit or aged based I suppose Isadora would be next in line.

@Rusty: Why thank you. We'll see where this goes.
@Brian: Actually, Isadora would take over. It's not THAT medieval. Females can run houses.

Technology, the bane of Mavis' existence. Stuffs made to endure, he can age it a century and it'll still work...

@Rusty: FFFF......and unlike Remus, Colton doesn't have the endless legions, massive naval strike groups or superweapons to use against the DHE.
He does however have knights in exo-armor along with an arcane knight company. Arcane knights are MAGES in exo armor that's designed to enhance their powers.

Oh s**t. I already had a profile here, Vish! Why didn't you read it? That's okay, it could use some editing.
First of all, the galaxy that Lord Faulkner is from isn't the Milky Way. (In other words, he's never heard of the GRE or Earth.) However, it does contain portals to the Battledome Universe. So technically he and others from his part of space could send fleets in to fight the Dragonhearts or any other faction if necessary.
