Over centuries, they transformed from brutal marauders into a formidable Great House by marrying brute force with clandestine trade networks. Today, under the iron-fisted leadership of Lady Adria Sevinor, the house operates as a shadow empire: a nexus between the merciless underworld and the polished corridors of corporate power. Their reputation for cunning strikes—both literal and figurative—has earned them grudging respect from rival houses and outright fear among the common folk. >[!history]- History > - Sevinor’s early leaders carved out a foothold in the abandoned warrens beneath Elysia, establishing a clandestine base that later evolved into the house’s secret stronghold. > - A daring raid on an Avalon Industries shipment of arcane alloys crippled the megacorporation’s supply chain and forced a costly peace treaty that granted Sevinor control over a key mining district in Bellagrad. > - Lady Adria orchestrated a covert coup within the Sentinels, replacing key officers with house loyalists to secure a steady stream of classified intelligence. >[!hier]- Hierarchy and Structure > - _Warband_ consists of elite mercenary squads—often former Black Company veterans—tasked with enforcing the house’s will on the streets. > - _Commerce_ runs a network of front companies across all five megacities, handling everything from gene‑therapy clinics to black-market cybernetic implants, providing both legitimate revenue and a cover for illicit activities. > - _Shadow Ops_ operates covertly within rival factions (notably the Datamancer’s Guild and Kusanagi Technologies), infiltrating projects to siphon technology and leverage political influence. >[!base]- Stronghold > The house’s seat of power is the **Crimson Bastion**, a fortified compound nestled in wealthy [[1. Victory Fields]] of Elysia. Its walls are lined with obsidian panels reinforced by nanostructured steel, while subterranean tunnels connect it to key transport routes and hidden data conduits. Inside, opulent chambers serve as council halls for Lady Adria, and a vast armory houses experimental weaponry—most notably the “Sevinor Specter” exosuits that combine kinetic energy shields with gene‑enhanced reflexes. >[!ops]- Operations >>[!agenda]- Tech Supremecy >>  Sevinor seeks to acquire Kusanagi’s prototype bio‑circuitry to augment its mercenaries and gain a decisive edge over rival Houses and Corporations. > >>[!agenda]- Political Subversion:  >>The house aims to infiltrate House Tenebra’s inner council, ensuring that any imperial edict will favor Sevinor interests. > >>[!agenda]- Control of the Blight:  >>By monopolizing Blight‑harvesting technologies, Sevinor intends to weaponize corrupted resources against its enemies. >[!rumors]- Rumors > - _Some whisper that Lady Adria has been blessed or formed a pact with The Stranger, exchanging forbidden knowledge for an army of immortal assassins._ > - _Others claim that a secret vault beneath the Crimson Bastion contains a living dragon, resurrected from Bodhandir or Drixalial's remnants to serve as the house’s ultimate deterrent._
