House Nohansen (Total War)

House Nohansen, known as the Lords of the Lake, is a powerful and ancient Hylian noble family that has been part of the Royal Family of the Kingdom of Hyrule since the Akkalan Civil War. The Nohansens claim to be descended from the legendary hero Nohan.

History
The second dynasty to have been seated on the throne of Hyrule since its founding, the Nohansens were responsible for murdering King Gustaf and set off the Hylian Civil War. Because of this even the bad blood between both dynasties war immediate and Nohansens took every measure possible to eliminate the Gustafs despite more active threats from other families. The Nohansen family also took a very pro-Akkalan stance during the civil war, wanting nothing to do with the traditional allied states of Wind Tribe, Piccori and Huskus. After Hylia ended the civil wars and united the Hylian people, she held favor for the Nohansens and kept them instated on the throne. In the three thousand year history of the Kingdom they have been seated on the throne longer than any other family, and have invited many princes and princesses from the other dynasties to intermarry. The Nohansen family traces their roots to ancient villages along the northwest coast of Lake Hylia, and were likely the original inhabitants of Hyrule Field. The Nohansen family crest is a stylized red beak Swan of Lake Hylia, which has remained the design of the royal crown for nearly three thousand years. The family colors of the Nohansens were Violet and Gold.
