From the heart of Daendroc's forests to the bustling City of Regalia, The Háll'avëia family can be found making their leaf-studded mark wherever they tread. This controversial group of Yanar has strayed somewhat far from their agricultural heritage, favouring higher integration into society. They have become notable as a prime example of just how far a yanar can go in Imperial Society.
The Háll'avëia Family can trace its roots back to the original Hállëvandëia overseas in Daen. It was nestled in the safe canopy of towering Allu'torne trees that overlooked a vast swath of marshland and forests below just before the village colony was wracked with the cataclysm's devastating impact rebuilt several different times in various locations throughout history. Now, the Háll'avëia is known to most as a family, a clan of yanar who have come together to live as one. Seeking to rebuild the past as well as pave a new path ahead. One thing with this family is inevitable, and that things are never certain.

The Hállëvandëia Colony, as it was known, was formed by a single parent Yanar named Azëlloa Hállëvandëia during the early years of 23 BC. As one of the descendants of the Nenya, Azëlloa sought to create a garden of confident Yanar to protect the groves of Daendroc from the coming Void Invasion. Using the gifts bestowed upon them by the Fated Ones, they raised towering walls of thorns to encase a small patch of Daen woodland surrounding a freshwater creek and birthed a succession of children to assist him. By the time their ancient Nenya Trees had fallen, the woodland Grove is known as Suryá-Cëllio, or Riverbend had become home to over thirty or so Yanar.
Suryá-Cëllio remained a secluded haven during the restless years following the Cataclysm. Until the shock of the Wildering and Cataclysm came, which wracked their way of life. The first iteration of the colony's home was destroyed and overrun with magical energy and natural disaster as their Goddess, Estel, died. Many yanar, many family members perished as a result, and those who survived were forced to wander the land for what seemed like almost a hundred years after the events. Until finally, they came together once more to rebuild their beloved Suryá-Cëllio out of the ruins of an old Altalar city consumed in the wake of the Wildering Ruins that lay near a river and ancient worn down aqueduct.
Time went on and with the lessons of the past fresh in mind, and as purpose slowly began to return to the Yanar people as well as magic, their newfound home began to grow and grow until it was a sizeable enough village once more and eventually far outshining the past iteration hung high up in the trees. The Hállëvandëia Colony knew peace and prosperity again for several years until war and calamity once more found its way to their doorstep in the form of Orcs and woodcutters. Still, this time they were adequately prepared to fend off intruders. They were making use of the old stone walls and thorns to repel would-be invaders.
However, the story of the family began as the founder of the original Hállëvandëia Colony left overseas, full of wanderlust and seeking to find more in life and leaving behind the eldest seedlings to govern and speak on behalf of the people-- a task they had always done from the beginning for the most part. Father and Mother, Azëlloa Hállëvandëia, wandered Daen for many years until finally landing upon Regalia's shore, where they met another like-minded yanar by the name of Niantha, whom they went on to form a new family and new colony so to speak in Regalia, the Haaven family. The pair of yanar met while under the Nenyarina Order. Originally they were called Heiwynn but decided upon Imperializing in place of changes to their lives after the dissolution of the Nenyarina. Shortly after, life took a turn, and the family began focusing on expanding in the medical field, providing health care and alchemical services to Regalia, led by Nadina Haaven.
The family led by Nadina Haaven went on to produce grandiose medical organizations, firstly the Alchemia Order, which saw immense success in providing medicine and healthcare to the general public in both everyday scenarios and during times of severe crisis—mending the numerous burn victims that were scorched by dragon's fire during the Dragon Crisis under Rikkira's reign of terror. Eventually, however, the family soon departed the medical field for other ventures as time went on.
The Haaven family decided to rename and rebrand itself and double back on its original roots of encouraging individualism, ambition and seeking one's path. Many of the family's yanar turned away from being healers; others didn't before beginning to focus on learning medicine skills even more. The family changed, warped and adapted as the need arose. Some become warriors or mercenaries, and some remain healers or alchemists to pay homage to older teachings. The family no longer has any set businesses it owns. Instead, it encourages all of its members to seek their path, start their businesses and branch out, reach out to others rather than reach within. Following all the recent changes, the Haaven family also decided to rename its original colony name, Hállëvandëia.
In recent years, the family re-branded themselves again to Háll'avëia. They seek to set their roots deeper with higher aspirations for the Yanar as a whole and decide the future of their race. With ambitions set so high, they wish to fold the Yanar as a people into the Crown Alliance and become paragons of a brighter future. As well as become keepers of history, knowledge, medicine and to ensure the past mistakes are never repeated again.

- You are welcome to change the name, gender, and general personality of your character upon application, so long as it remains true to their general role (a scholar character must remain scholar, etc). Let us know if you wish to change anything.
- Please stay true to the characteristics of a Hall'eveia. This means that you should not make them a criminal or an Old God's worshipper without first contacting myself, as it simply would not make sense in most cases.
- Additionally, it is possible for us to create more children or relatives. If there is a character concept you would like, but do not see here, get in touch and we might be able to work something out!
- If you want to join the family, simply PM or send a message to EdnaMode over the forums or discord [EdnaMode#1098] with a pitch or idea, or even apply on this thread for what you're aspiring for.
