Since its founding, House Dracul has remained one of the most feared and despised Houses of the Empirium. Its founder, Radu Dracula, brother to the Wallachian hero Vlad Tepes Dracula has proven over the centuries that the Dracul Family will do almost anything to attain power. It is quite ironic that western historians have painted the exploits of Vlad as a monster, what wouldnt modern historians give to know the bloody history of Wallachia's Lilan Prince Radu.

Radu and his entire line owe their existence to the Atlanteans of House Dracomis. After all it was House Draconis that gave birth to the entire Dracul Bloodline. It was they who propped Radu and his children up in positions of power all throughout the Empirium. And it was Radu who led the Family Dracul away from its progenitors.

After the exodus of Radu and his children, for a period of at least one hundred years the Family Dracul and House Draconis were warring with one another. In 1836 the Family Dracul petitioned the reigning Empress Andrea to become a House. Some say that Radu promised the Empress the secrets of Sorcery to gain entrance into the Empirium, but in the end, House Dracul was the result. It is quite ironic that only fourteen years after Empress Andrea granted Radu Dracula his request, she would end up stepping down for unknown reasons.

House Dracul is one of the most well connected Houses in the entire Empirium to all things that would be labeled "occult". Members of this House can be found on virtually every know continent on the Earth, and House Dracul is by far one of the wealthiest Houses there is.

Advantages: Because of its ties to the occult, starting characters from this House gain Magic, Sway, and Wealth.
