Dauntrael

The Dauntrael were a magically powerful clan known in the late 14 century DR.

History
During his reign as the Magister between and, Maxiladanarr Torstren fostered marriages for this family with the aim of producing many more children who would be suited to the Art.

The Dauntraels had numbered strongly in the court of King Alemander IV of Tethyr, but much of their ranks had been thinned by the Ten Black Days of Eleint. As of, two branches survived and served King Haedrak, while other Dauntrael were in Westphal, Kingsbay, and in the Moonshaes.

Appearance
Members of the family were generally tall and slender, with flowing brown hair that appeared purple or blue under certain lighting. Dauntrael tended to have large, liquid brown or blue eyes, with comely appearances, and a great singing voice.

Abilities
Only about half of the Dauntrael had the power to rise in the Art, but they rose swiftly, showing great creativity and affinity.

Structure
About seventy Dauntrael mages existed around, and fifty of them were wizards in every sense of the word. The clan was growing eastwards, with members settling in Iriaebor, Priapurl, Suzail and Yhaunn.

The patriarch and matriarch of the clan as of were Thurlad Dauntrael and Deluma Dauntrael.

Reputation & Legends
The Dauntraels had grown to become quite skilled diplomats, and were largely regarded as great neighbors, generous and capable. However, they made an effort not to have too high a profile.

The Dauntraels believed themselves to have a purpose yet to be revealed by Mystra, and thus saw it as their duty to rise in power. They mostly passed down legends of clever spell use to save the day by their own family, but the most important legend was that of Shalima Dauntrael, whose spirit was seen as the family's ideal.
