House Chrysogonus

"Hello, I'm Keven Chrysogonus and my family is fraking insane."

- Disenchanted Palatinus Minoris of House Chrysogonus

A major House Palatine of Sector Occident Prime. Their primary holdings are in the Phoenician sub-Sector but they control trade lanes and planetary fiefs throughout the Sector.

Foundation and History
House Chrysogonus dates back to the early days of the Imperium. According to the official history the first Lord Chrysogonus was a distinguished commander of the Crusade who was rewarded with an imperial warrant of trade for the un-incorporated worlds of Sector Occident Prime. Unfortunately this account can not be checked against Imperial records since the original name of the First Lord is not to be found in the official history but only the title he adopted from his fief planet Chryseis.

Be that as it may the House is certainly several thousand years old and has experienced many ups and downs over that period. Currently its fortunes are on an upswing but that may not last given the unsatisfactory nature of the current heirs.

Auburnus Conroi Carol Chrysogonus


"Grandad is like an unexploded bomb, touchy and dangerous - and I don't like the way he's been looking at me lately."

- Keven Chrysogonus Tribunus Aerarius and Lord Palatine of Chryseis as well as Admiral of the Chrysogoni Fleet. Auburnus is the current head of the House.

Mavis Murasaki Toda Chrysogonus


"My grandmother wears hollow pins filled with poison in her coiffure. It's a Zhogune tradition, like four line tone poems."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Lady Palatine of Chryseis and wife of Auburnus Chrysogonus. She was born a Toda, a member of the high Zhogune aristocracy.

Aston Avelard Hikaru Chrysogonus
"Uncle Aston is touchy as Grandad but subtle like Grandma, and he has this problem with disproportionate retailiation...."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Palatinus Majorus and Vice-Admiral of the Chrysogoni Fleet. He is the eldest son and named heir of Auburnus and Mavis.

Veronique Atellia Drusa Sextilla Chrysogonus
"Aunt Veronique blinds them with her cleavage as she slips the knife in their back. Her victims tell me it's almost worth it."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Palatina Majora of House Chrysogonus and Palatina Minora of House Sextus. She is the wife of Aston Chrysogonus and a junior member of a Tribuni Aerarii dynasty on Elphamor.

Aravise Elphame Drusilla Chrysogonus
"'Visa makes a great show of religious devotion and bats her eyes at Great Uncle Aharon a lot. She's up to something but none of us can figure out what."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Lady Chrysogonus. Aston and Veronique's elder daughter. She plays at being demure and devout.

Angelique  Modestine Nezamet Chrysogonus
"There was the time Angel commandeered a SDF destroyer to chase after a Guard officer she was interested in. Not to mention that brothel she owns. Gossip says she turns tricks alongside her joygirls - and I believe it."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Lady Chrysogonus. Aston and Veronique's younger daughter. Extremely wild and willful.

Alaric Percivaus Dyego Chrysogonus
"Grandad and Uncle Aston are convinced Al is a total waste of oxygen... but I remember him as a kid and I'm not so sure."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Lord Chrysogonus. Aston and Veronique's only son. A fop and a wastrel - or is he?

Atmor Artur Ieyasu Chrysogonus
"Dad is convinced tremendous secrets are hidden under Chryseis's crust. I'm afraid he could be right."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Palatinus Minorus and Regent of Chryseis. Younger son of Auburnus and Mavis. Highly eccentric his avocation is hunting for archaeotech with the only slightly more cautious assistance of his daughter. They find it too, but that is only the beginning of the trouble.

Keirabeth Laciel Euphemie Folderoe Chrysogonus
"Every time I look a Mom she's got more wires. I'm afraid to ask what they're all for."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Palatina Minora and Regent Consort of Chryseis. Atmor's wife and daughter of an important Chryseis House Minor. As eccentric as her husband her most notable oddity is her tendency to wear the same outfit day after day until it literally falls apart.

Keven Aubrey Laciel Chrysogonus
"Sometimes I seriously wish I'd been born to some nice Prole family. Most of the time actually."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Lord Chysogonus. Atmor and Keirabeth's son and possibly the only fully sane member of the clan. Disappointed in Alaric his grandfather Auburnus is eyeing him as a possible heir.

Kebrina Adelinde Keredwen Chrysogonus
"I'm afraid Kebbi is turning out just like Dad, then she goes and does something to make me wonder..."

- Keven Chrysogonus

Lady Chrysogonus. Atmor and Keirabeth's daughter she assists her father in his treasure hunting. she is, perhaps, less of a blind enthusiast than he is. Certainly she takes more precautions involving both armament and warding prayers.

Amaryllis Anastazia Khania Chrysogonus
"Great Aunt Amaryllis is an Inquisitor - and yes that scares me. And I don't think the bouffant-do goes with her armor either."

- Keven Chrysogonus Palatina Minora and Inquisitor of the Ordo Xenos. Only sister of Auburnus Chrysogonus

Aharon Alecki Phramond Chrysogonus
"Great Uncle Aharon has his eye on the Sector Primacy - and why shouldn't he? But he's hand in glove with Great Aunt Am and that's worrying."
