Family History

The House of Milieux were descended from a serjeant, Thelens of Milieux during the first Thousiersian crusade into Dwarden, who by his own hand struck down a glabrethel, a monstrous sorcerer possessed of a demonic spirit encapsulated in rotting flesh. For his heroism, he was knighted in the field, and was given castle Rankorden, the seat of a deceased karden lord, and all his attendant lands.

For three hundred years, the House of Milieux has maintained its precarious lands on the west side of the Black River, with cadet lines of its family extending into the Archfold and to the sea, where at Pro-Praetoria the Milieux of Kantorum became an influencing house of secular clerics. The direct line of the House of Milieux however stayed at Rankorden, enduring the vicissitudes of the War with both calamities and triumphs.

As Knight-Bannerets, the Milieux were under the mastery of Thorbold Monastery in the organization of the Order, but served as the monastery's advocates, in the Thousiersian manner, in all secular matters.

The Milieux of Rankorden were last powerful in the 800s, when their ancestor Thourseau became a Knight Grand Commander of the Order, and achieved the Priorship of the Archfold
