House of Marwyn

The house of Marwyn is among the eldest of Stromgarde's noble houses that still exists today. Descended from the ancient Arathi clan of Longspear, they were the first chieftains of the region to be ennobled, and were originally styled Baron Marwyn of Dagger Point. In the year 623 K.C. The neighboring Barony of Alden's Rise was annexed into the Marwyn holdings and Melysa Marwyn-Ashvale was created the first Countess of Seastone.

The County of Seastone (Formerly known as Stonegarde) is the ancestral seat of the house of Marwyn. Once a small city beside the sea, Stonegarde's primary income was derived from its forge, the local fishermen and the stone quarry from which the town earned its name. The County of Seastone is now comprised of the combined holdings of Stonegarde, Alden's Rise, which lies directly east of Stonegarde and all of their satellite villages along the coastline. The County is now home to nearly two thousand people.

The Marwyns have always been fiercely loyal to the house of Trollbane and have faithfully served the Kingdom of Stromgarde for many generations. The house of Marwyn was joined to the Lordaeronian house of Ashvale by marriage, when Melysa Marwyn was wed to Ethan Ashvale and has also married its daughters into a number of Stormwind families in the past century.
