De Druisa

"'I am well aware of the peasant's life, and from the descendant of a peasant to one such as yourself, you should know that I have a sharper sword, tempered plate, and a short temper for insults.'"

"- Duke Gerio de Druisa over a land dispute with an unknown peasant."

Summary
The Family of Druisa, also known in Vaedi as 'de Druisa' but in native Druaic as 'de Daanu' are a fairly new lineage of nobles, squires, knights, and pages. The Family of Druisa are known for their recent background as peasants, particularly shepherds and grain farmers along the Praesis Grasslands south of Druisa. It is unknown as to the date of when the Family of Druisa formed.

The matter of which the Family of Druisa were raised to nobility stems to 3982, when the Family of Veron were tracking the killer of the late Grand Duke Meric de Veron, father of the current Grand Duke, Oruss. The matter was resolved with the aid of several shepards along the Praesis Grasslands spotting a retinue of men fleeing toward Ollermark, bearing the sigil of the Bear of Ollermark. Uratos and his wife, Francesi accompanied Oruss and an attachment of 20 men to Bannare and while there, declared their family to be of noble blood after the Massacre of Bannare.

The Family of Druisa, for the time they have been relevant, have always stood with the Family of Veron regarding all manner of decisions and controversies. Even with the recent passing of Uratos and Francesi, their firstborn son Gerio practices his parents values of loyalty, though known for a short temper and ill judgement.
