Wolfish blood is often found through this family, which tends towards larger individuals. Known for their ruthlessness and intelligence, members of House Eternity can be found walking many paths of life – and generally, making their way towards the top. Rumors of incest and violence often circle the line, though most members will not discuss these so openly.

A foundational House of Salsola. Salsola history began with the Black Witch, Eris, after whom the Hand of Eris (pack symbol) was created. The legacy of this House casts a long, foreboding shadow.

Blood members are noted for their giant, formidable size and pure, wolf blood. A vast majority of Blacksuns have proven to be superb fighters. The females of this House have historically raised ravens to be used as tools of their work via reconnaissance.

The House began its roots in Salsola through its original matriarch, Kaeli. Those that are not Kaeli’s blood descendants were were adopted in or were made honorary members by Kaeli herself.

Many members of House D’Angelo are heavily wolf-blooded. A notable number hailing from the family’s homeland are white or black-furred, and are commonly gold, orange, or green-eyed. Many of the D’Angelos hailing from the Mountain are strong in their Khalif faith.

A historically large, prolific, and widespread House, there are a few D'Angelos that can tie their ancestry to one of the Kingdom's founders, Larkspur, though, more commonly, many may hold ties to non-Salsolan, Misery. In Salsola, D’Angelos have taken on a great variety of talents, skills, and job pursuits over the many years since the Kingdom’s founding.

A close family with a history of misery. Though they are not widespread and numerous, their ambitions and capabilities more than make up for the lack of quantity by providing quality.

House started by the venerable matriarch Isabella Heiwa, who in her tenure was Crone and Ambassador. From the bloodline came a Seer and a Striker, so there is more than a little ability in the breeding stock.

Known for their prowess in magic, the Helsi family follows beliefs based in Norse mythology. Many talented leatherworkers come from the Helsi line. Most Helsi members are wolves, have purple eyes, and are larger than average.

The Helsi family originates from a midwestern area known as Hearg Njorth. It's original matriarch, Siv Helsi, rose to become Salsola's Crone before her untimely death, and her descendents continue teaching their beliefs.

The Prizmovs are an enigmatic family of wolfdogs, hailing from a mysterious and far off land across the sea. The members of this House are typically ambitious and eccentric individuals. The Prizmov bloodline incorporates themes of plurality, oddity, occultism, rebirth, and individualism.

A bloodline derived from an infamous family found in Russia's coldest, darkest reaches. The Prizmov name was newly forged by its Head of House in Nova Scotia to escape the cruelty of its cultist ancestry. As members have found their way across the ocean, they have found each other and have made a new home in Salsola.

Valentines are noted to have interests (and talents) in dealing with trade or merchantry, combat, or witchcraft. A great number are bilingual, speaking both Common and French. Finally, many members of this House are traditionally named after pieces of fabric or flowers.

Related to their sister House, Heiwa, the Valentines also stem from the Silevue bloodline. They are a house comprised of many talents, and many have risen to the high ranks since they arrived and took root in the Thistle Kingdom.

Within Salsola, the de le Poers are known for their tactical prowess and inclinations towards battle, as well as their skill with horses. Most de le Poers tend to have darker, warmer tones in their fur. Facial markings are common, as are blue eyes. Many members of this family originated from Airgid Gleann, and have connections to Salsola's royal families.

The de le Poer bloodline boasts ancestral connections to the land, stretching all the way back to Silent Dawn. The family is full of individuals whom displayed exceptional leadership qualities, though darker, more dangerous afflictions have been known to follow the family. This large family has many branches, and splits between former Inferni members and foreign bloodlines.

Hailing from the East, this house is comprised of dominantly jackal-wolf hybrids. The Kaisers are self-sufficient and hardworking. They are multi-lingual, and often have skills as hunters, fighters, spies, and/or traders.

The original Kaiser, Heine, came to the Kingdom as a slave, and though he earned his freedom and his daughter rose to Emissary, the House remains low due to their roots in the Kingdom as slaves and for Kamil's desertion.

Heavy hybrids, though, predominately coyote and wolf-blooded.

Wanting to create their own legacy, D'Angelo House member, Narcissa, and ex-slave/servant, Andrew, formed House Greygrief after their forced betrothal. The House was born from scandalous, secretive affairs, and was legitimized by the House’s founders producing heirs. It suffered a notable loss in its infancy when Proctor Andrew was “murdered” in the summer of 2020.

Lesser House

Nearly all Lykois have coyote in their blood. They boast a wide range of talents, skills, and interests, and many may be related to one another to some degree given their family's gross number of members.

The Lykoi have their ties in many bloodlines, and small few can lay claim to one of the Kingdom's founders, Itachi.

Noble House

House Nocturne is a jackal-dominant bloodline of hereditary witches who have been taught the ways of the Old Ones by their matriarch, Maelyx Nocturne. Though small, House Nocturne is ambitious; the younger generation has been ordered to rise within the ranks of Salsola and bring honor and prestige to their house by any means necessary.

Originally hailing from South Africa, this house’s founder Maelyx Nocturne came to the Thistle Kingdom in the fall of 2018 so she could raise her daughter Jaketta Nocturne in a community of esteemed, powerful witches.

Lesser House

Largely of dog and wolf descent.

The first Rask in Salsola was Urho.

Lesser House

A bloodline of respectable quality, common Salcedo traits are a facile wit, deep loyalty, and a talent for sword fighting. They may range in appearance, but are often dog hybrids with short fur, willowy physiques, and striking violet eyes.

Descending from a prominent family of Onuba, the Salcedo House came to Salsola through exiled prince Rafael. His combative skills raised him to a notable rank, and his marriage to Violeta Rose Soul established the House’s legitimacy. Their descendents still serve the Kingdom.

Noble House

An old House with a good reputation. Dependable, strong, and somewhat enigmatic; their members are less interested in ambitious pursuits than they are in maintaining the order of their society. Known for their fighting prowess, this line can be expected to contribute at least one soldier each generation.

Soul is an old bloodline, tracing back before the foundation of Salsola itself. It has notable ties with House Lykoi; both the founding member of Salsola Itachi Lykoi and former Crone Loki Helsi were Soul by blood. Many descendents have been leaders outside the domain of Salsola, but where these other Kingdoms have fallen, it is here the Soul survives.

Lesser House

"When We Rise, You Will Fall" are the words of this house. It's a clan lead by a bastard born from an Outsider, in which they were married into larger, more powerful houses to boost their own numbers and prowess.

Born as a bastard clan within Salsola, Ulrich has been known to facilitate many different hybrids of a different walks of life. These children born in Salsola are likely to be shamans, witches, or nordic worshipers with a particular mean-streak or twitching disease. In December 2023, House Ulrich was split when Cleric Eden de le Ulrich formed a new House under the banner of the de le Ulrich name.
