Template:Noble House-Current House Tylger is an old and powerful noble house of the Tarii. Originally a militaristic Dukatii governing Lorell under House Paradoc, House Tylger rose to fame and was elevated to Tarii during the Dark Age and Hapan Civil War. During the lengthy conflict, the heads of House Tylger were among the most important individuals in the Draconian Union's hierarchy. Of the old Draconian noble houses, it is the only one which still has political influence on a cluster-wide level. Since the Dark Age, the family has enjoyed considerable political, economic and military influence in the Hapes Consortium and currently governs the Rim Worlds region.
History
Very little is known of the Tylger family's activities before the Antiquity Era, except that they resided on Lorell in the area which is now known as New Arxian. They were the descendants of Lorell Raiders and administrated a considerable community in the area, which was part of the Paradoc family's colony and base on the planet.
Age of Queen-Mothers
Upon the creation of nobility in the Hapes Consortium under Queen-Mother Tini'duran III in 702, House Tylger was established as a Dukatii under House Paradoc which was a Tarii. Lexiniq Tylger was the first Countess of House Tylger when it was established in 702 and is therefore considered to be the founder.
As Lorell prospered, so did House Tylger, with many Duchii and Turilii coming under its governance. While House Paradoc was tasked with governing the entire system, representing the system at the Royal Court and also commanding the local fleets, House Tylger's responsibility was the day-to-day administration of Lorell. It also had jurisdiction over the Turilii governing the three moons of Lorell.
The family joined the Tini'duranist following during the Second Antiquity Era and has been a firm believer in its beliefs ever since, promoting conservative ideals and believing that the nobility is vital to making the Hapan society work.
Dark Age
On the dawn of the Dark Age in 3946, House Tylger's leader Countess Kani Tylger supported Princess Da'tan's conservative ideals in secret, fearing reprisal from Lady Paradoc who supported reformist Ta'lan Pal'durath. When Princess Da'tan received military backing from House Olanji, House Par'wandi and several other Tarii families, she approached Countess Tylger to discuss Lorell's situation in the coming conflict. House Tylger pledged its loyalty to the Princess and vowed to assist in the conquest of Lorell.
During Operation Draconian, the Royal Draconian Order clashed with House Paradoc's forces in the first battle of Lorell. Countess Tylger killed Lady Paradoc before her agents lowered all defense shields and disabled all planetary batteries, paving the way for the first assault on Lorell.
For the vital contribution to the Draconian Union's first victory, Princess Da'tan elevated House Tylger's status to Tarii and married Xariq Tylger, the brother of now Lady Kani Tylger.
