House Starshot

The Noble House of Starshot which governs the Cerrula Valley. After Turmon 'Starshot' Herder's triumphs in the ancient dragon war, he was awarded lordship of the valley and retired there, his nickname of "Starshot" going on to become the name of his new family. Generations later, this house still stands governing the lands where the local people work, particularly at raising sheep. With a small army of around 600 soldiers, it is not the largest house, but a very powerful one all the same, with numerous alliances, and everyone from the lowest ranking grunts to the nobles themselves being well trained for combat.

Trivia

Their army is roughly estimated to be comprised of about 600 incredibly well trained soldiers with a breakdown of 100 archers (a fact Dularay points out as both pathetic and ironic) 275 Lancers, and 325 swordsmen. Dularay further notes that these numbers are deceiving, as most melee units can wield a ranged weapon of some kind, and the archers also carry melee weapons to defend themselves in close combat, causing a great deal of overlap. Further, this does not account for their magic wielders who while smaller, are still formidable.

The family crest is a shooting star stylized to resemble an arrow.
