House:Nyur
House of Nyur is an ancient noble house of Rzhlev, founded by Nyur, first lieutenant of Viktor the Tyrant during the invasion of Roslöwen during the second century (~150 MR). Their home is in Nyurskyy.
The family adopted quickly the Nona Vos aptitude but kept most of the old Vos traditions. The Nyur family sided with Gregor Molev in the blood feud of 470 MR, and they were richly rewarded - the province of Gorthskyy was assigned to them as the Gorth family was killed for siding with the wrong Tsar.
There is a feud going on within the family: Maria and her brother Leonid Nyur always had bad blood between them, and it did not help that Viktor appointed Leonid as zhupan of the family's original province Nyurskyy as "there was more need for raiders than politicians". This animosity as often turned in small clashes between bands of brigands and raiders inside the family's own lands.

[top]Nyur characters
A Nyur comes from a land owned by Vos but full of Brecht, so they may have origins from both. The Nyur's pride themselves as a matriarchy as Nyur was one of the few clerics of Kriesha that went to Rzhlev; women are more encouraged in politics and "alternate methods of warfare" whereas men usually are reserved to the battlefield or military training - a male Nyur growing older than fifty years old like Viktor is seen with shame. Also, there is no real love towards the Belinik Tsarevic, as the clergy often encourages the population to revolt. Male Nyur characters from the main branch are often fighters or rangers while the lower branches may have barbarians or rogues. They excel mostly in survival and warcraft skills. Female Nyur characters are encouraged to any class, except priests of Belinik. More than one young Nyur girl as expressed the interest in following Maria's way towards magic. They usually know at least one knowledge skill. Any so-called Nyur is required to be able to raid varsks. The weapon of choice of the family is the heavy flail.
Do not be fooled by their symbol, an olive branch - violence is always the first answer that will come to a Nyur's mind. Since the only thing Nyurs are interested in is the Nyur family, they favor small raids, with minimal men lost, and personal intervention for the glory. They are always in favor in any kind of magical or divine help into the battle.
