House Jaelre

House Jaelre was a Vhaeraun-worshiping house driven out of Menzoberranzan for heresy.

History
After some decades wandering the Underdark, they found a portal in the newly sacked Blingdenstone, taking them to areas of the forest of Cormanthor that had formerly been protected by their mythals. They set up their base in Minauthkeep, an abandoned elven fort. The house sought to occupy the ruins of the Elven Court and make use of the mythals and wards there to keep its enemies at bay. It sent a force led by Jezz the Lame as a diversion to the Dalesfolk. House Jaelre had relatively little conflict with the Auzkovyn Clan, which first arrived in Cormanthor at about the same time, as the latter were nomadic and thus did not contest Jaelre's holdings. A century later, Valan Jaelre sent the drow (led by a simulacrum of himself) to attack Shadowdale and steal the Pendant of Ashaba.
