==== Clan Drayton ==== This family is the richest and most powerful family in the city of [[Hookridge]]. The father rules the city in an Autocratic fashion -- controlling both the powerful militia (including a standing army and the city guard), and the two largest temples (Ptah and Horus). The Draytons believe strongly that the old houses deserve to own the new [[Backbone]] and have resisted (and outright defied) the will of [[Rathwyn]], who wishes to see a more egalitarian power-sharing arrangement. ^ Name ^ Age ^ Notes ^ | Thomasyn | 50 | Head of family; "Grand Duke" of Hookridge | | Agatha | 40 | Wife | | Grace | 20 | eldest child (daughter) | | Joan | 17 | 2nd child | | Maud | 15 | 3rd child | | Elisabeth | 11 | twin | | Zahra | 11 | twin | Agatha bore a total of five children, all of them daughters.
