The Duke of Crimson Peak is one of the wealthiest people in Sairland. The Yagimoto’s owe their wealth and position to the heroic exploits of their legendary ancestor Murashi the Dragon Bane. 200 years ago Murashi slew the Red Dragon Ixenoth and opened up the mountains and valleys around the dragons lair for settlement. The dragon’s immense hoard became the foundation of the Yagimoto clan’s wealth. Murashi’s ancient enchanted blade, Retribution, has been passed down through the family and brings great prestige to its bearer.
