The Whitacre Dynasty is the current royal family of Elyria, descended from King Furion, who essentially stole the throne of Elyria in the year 1036/6, following the death of King Corbray Crannock II during the Tunston Uprising.
The Whitacre Dynasty had a very dark and sinister beginning. King Furion became king of Elyria through murder and treachery (see: Night of the Red Knives). However, in the intervening years, later monarchs have tried to be more just.
Unfortunately, the kingdom has always been victim to squabbling nobles, and never-ending intrigue and betrayal at the royal court.
The infamous House of Whitacre has ruled Elyria for 211 years and nine different monarchs have sat upon the Darkwood Throne at Castle Krasdan.
The current Whitacre monarch is King Ramelos.
