Elberwick family

The Elberwick family once held the largest Chelaxian county, the County of Elberwick, within what is modern day Andoran. Rochard Elberwick embraced the revolution and retained much of its wealth and influence. He peacefully surrendered his claim to the land of Andoran and sent his son Wellam Elberwick to Almas to enter democratic politics.

History

In the area of Darkmoon Vale of Andoran, all of the lands east of the Aspodell Crossroads belonged to the Barony of Darkmoon controlled by House Novotnian. Those to the northwest belonged to the Barony of Perin, controlled by the Vendikon family. To the southwest, the noble House Fordyce to this day controls the Barony of Pamiatazova in neighboring Cheliax, (much reduced in size since the independence of Andoran). When Andoran still belonged to Cheliax, all three barons and their baronies existed within the County of Elberwick. Hanry Elberwick was named Count by the Chelaxian Emperor in 4306 AR. After the revolution in Andoran, the area became the Shire of Elberwick.
