House von Rožnov

Driven from our ancestral lands by the Margrave Wars. In Bohemia our restoration began.

Of Moravia · Lords of Nebakov · Anno 140389 sworn · 20 ranks

Fiercely loyal, from the levy to the court.

I · Moravia

Neutrality was our undoing.

House von Rožnov is a noble family of Moravia. When rival claimants fought for the Margraviate, our lands stood between feuding lords, shifting allegiances and burning villages.

Lord Reximus worked hard to keep Rožnov out of the war. It was that neutrality that brought tragedy: both sides raced to occupy Rožnov, and the House was caught between them.

II · Exodus

What we could carry.

Surrounded on both sides, Lord Reximus and his brother Sir Robbe abandoned their ancestral holdings. With them went the court, the retainers and the craftsmen, and only what the family could carry, west to the prosperous lands around Kuttenberg.

III · The House

Hard working, and proud of it.

Far from home, the House remains fiercely proud of its Moravian heritage, and determined that the name von Rožnov shall not fade into obscurity.

Head of the House

Lord Reximus von Rožnov

An astute politician and administrator, and Lord of Nebakov.

  • The retainers

    Fiercely loyal, from the levy to the court.

  • The craftsmen

IV · Restoration

In Bohemia our restoration began.

  1. The defence

    Grund

    We joined in the defence of Grund when the town was attacked.

  2. The hunt

    The Black Company

    We rode with Lord Drakov to hunt them. We found them and brought word first, then joined the skirmish and smashed them.

  3. The raids

    Raborsch

    We helped quell the raids in the Raborsch region.

  4. The honour

    Kuttenberg Tournament

    For this, Lord Drakov invited us as his guests. We presented him with lavish gifts.

V · Bohunowitz

A town, shared.

We bought a house in Bohunowitz and helped build up its trade and its people. When the town became available, we petitioned Lord Drakov for it.

Together with the Starry Trading Company we came to an arrangement: both houses would co-own the town, with Vladik of the Starry Trading Company as Bailiff and von Rožnov holding the Stewardship.
