Xaphanethra Family

The Xaphanethra Family is newly founded, most likely a more ambitious offshoot of an older, lesser known Family, or even a splinter broken from a disgraced one. Regardless of their origins, the Xaphanethras are intent upon building glory and leaving their mark on the Confederation.

Public Agenda

The primary focus of the Xaphanethra Family has not yet solidified, one of the known signs in identifying a young or minor Family. Members actively seek opportunities for glory, from reckless feats on behalf of the Confederation within the Sparnell Armed Forces to an assortment of appearances in publicity gimmicks and game shows such as Five Hundred Fun Ways to Die.   Young Families seeking a name for themselves are popular targets of the more established Families such as the Selkirks and Valcores, and the Xaphanethras are no exception. An assortment of their more naive membership has already found their way into the service of the more cutthroat Families, dirtying their hands for the advancement of others' political gains in exchange for scraps of recognition, but more often serving as scapegoats should the schemes be uncovered.   The Xaphanethra Family persists in their efforts to build a place within the Confederation, despite these fallbacks. One day, their time will come, and they intend to be ready.

Honor. Glory. Family.

The Xaphanethra family being fae and the mention of the 500 fun ways to die programme makes me think that a fae could die by being stepped on by a person.

Yes. Very much yes, tbh. It's tough being small in such a big world.
