Editing Terland Family

The '''Terland Family''' are one of the [[Five Families]] of [[Izril]].

== Overview ==
The Terlands settled their lands very successfully and kept to mage-towns and spell-castles. Their latest generations are apparently less ambitions and are resting on the laurels of their ancestors.<ref name="7.18M" /> They're well known for using [[Golems]], and provide those that clean [[First Landing]]. Most of the books their family reads have to do with golems. The budget for golem-making has been limited to those that can at least craft a basic golem.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/09/04/9-13/ Chapter 9.13]</ref> Family members are allotted personal golems, referred to as Retainer Golems, which are treated similar to heirlooms.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/04/12/9-41-pt-2/ Chapter 9.41 (Pt. 2)]</ref>

The Terland family was also famous for their [[Vampires|vampire]]-slaying.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/03/23/6-01/ Chapter 6.01]</ref>

The Family owns the "Banner of Terland", likely a powerful artifact.<ref name="4.26M">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/04/07/4-26-m/ Chapter 4.26 M]</ref>

Dealing with riots "Terland-style" means sending out War [[Golems]] to crush the rioters. That implies they did so at least once.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/06/28/7-31/ Chapter 7.31]</ref>

Like how some magical bloodlines or even nations had their unique hair-color, House Terland had inherited a pigmentation of their own. Not to their ''skin'', but to their fingernails and teeth, which have just the faintest green tinge to both, like a natural dye, or painted fingernails.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/05/02/8-20/ Chapter 8.20]</ref>

== Military Strength ==
Terland forces are based around their war golems. Their non-golem forces are primarily viewed as support for those golems. Automata Controller is an officer rank equivalant to [Major] that leads their mixed forces.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/10/15/9-60/ Chapter 9.60]</ref> These Controllers can fight by riding inside of a war golem.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/11/22/9-66/ Chapter 9.66]</ref>

== History ==
The Terland family are one of the [[Five Families]] that came from [[Terandria]]<em>—fleeing </em>from Terandria, to be exact<ref name="4.26M" /> and together with them are the first humans to ever settle on [[Izril]].

The Terland twins, Petria and Ulva, were defeated by the Goblin King [[Velan]].<ref name="AW-3" /> Petria was killed by him personally, and Ulva was broken by the experience.<ref name="7.18M" />

== Chronology ==
Ther Terland family sent military support to [[Tyrion Veltras]] when he asked for some to fight the [[Goblin Lords|Goblin Lord]] [[Reiss]]: Six thousand [Riders] with at least 1500 of them [Knights].<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/06/19/4-47/ Chapter 4.47]</ref>

The Terland family recently filled Wistram's scrying orb shows with the scandalous affair of [Lord] [[Bein Terland|Bein]] trying to marry [Lady] [[Delia Zolde]] out of love after he had proposed to the wealthy [Dowager]/[Lady] [[Hetessana Wellfar]] for a long time.<ref name="7.15R" /><ref name="7.18M">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/04/15/7-18-m/ Chapter 7.18 M]</ref>
