The
House of Skarnstein
A faction in Krevborna
The nobles of the House of Skarnstein are the sages and scholars of the Lamashtu. The members of House Skarnstein relentlessly pursue forbidden knowledge; their libraries rival those of Creedhall University. The leaders of the house are vampires, but the Skarnstein bloodline is tainted; the body of anyone transformed into a vampire by a member of House Skarnstein is warped into a hideous, gargoyle-like form. The house is currently led by Baron Nikolai Skarnstein.
