House Taban (Total War)

House Taban is an ancient Calatian noble family and a surviving house of the Akkalan Civil War. They have stood with House Gustaf for millennia and are often considered their closest allies. Serving as their castellans during the reign of Rhoaban Gustaf.

Ancient Age
House Taban was among the early Akkalan houses that settled the Tabantha Mountains and its surrounding regions circa 3400 to 3500 BG. They are one of the oldest surviving families of Hyrule and are able to trace their lineage back to old Arcadia. The family took the Gray Wolf of Hebra as their sigil, due to its characteristics and their close kinship with House Gustaf. The wolf was associated with courage and loyalty in Akkalan culture and thus is often seen in heraldry, especially in Calatia.

Following the death of King Rhoaban Gustaf, Lord Maltho, the ruling patriarch of House Taban, quickly rallied his supporters and marched on Southern Hyrule. House Taban, along with its allies, quickly managed to topple the opposition stationed at the newly established city of Gundrumether, but were ultimately defeated during the Battle of the Burning Fields by the Nohansens and their forces. When the news of Maltho's death reached Snowpeak, the remaining members of House Taban went into hiding along with the children of Rhoaban and their supporters.
