History[]
Founding[]
House Aldrimar was officially founded in 1066 when Zakaran Aldrimar married Adele Narandic daughter of his friend and mentor Wallim Narandic. For their wedding gift, King Phillip I granted him a claim on the castle and lands of a rebellious Lord Borbu near the frontier. Zak was able to take the castle in a matter of days with a small group of trusted men, and renamed the castle Zaksburg.
Rise to Prominence[]
Even after removing Borbu from his castle, the frontier region was not at peace. Many of the other lords had been friends and allies to Borbu, and attempted to restore him to his castle. One by one, he defeated them and proclaimed his lordship over them and their vassals. King Phillip backed his claims and helped him solidify his dominance of the region, granting him the title, Duke of Aldric.
The birth of Zakal Aldrimar in 1084 was an incredible relief to Zakaran, as he finally had an heir. While at court, Zakal and Phillip's son Henri became close friends, and in time would marry their children in an attempt to join their Houses.
Zakal's son Henri Aldrimar married Ermengarde, Duchess of Burgan, nearly doubling the territory and power of the Aldrimars. When Ermengarde died, their six year old son Bonifacio inherited, and coruled with his father until his death, when Bon became the singular Lord Aldrimar.
