Established long ago by fiends trying to seduce elvenkind to the Lower planes, however a union was instead tied, growing into what now is being called a fiend sanctuary.
The House protects the fiends, demons, fiendbloods and demonbloods from mortals, but also from the fiends trying to return the treacherous escapees.
Although they conform to lawfulness, their nature is far from such. The House's internal rule is continuously challenged and a new head of the House has been crowned thirteen times during the last fifty years. Queen Shaelara still lives, her age unknown, but she does not seek the seat of the House.
