Foundation and early activities
Arcas
Einar 'The Bear-Slayer'
The Clan was founded by Einar Kvitravn, a Norlandic Bounty-hunter and Warrior who traveled Arcas seeking money in order to properly afford housing within the current capital of Norland, Morsgrad. Einar was later contracted to hunt down the infamous Hyspian outlaw known as Pedro Gonzalez. The young men had a brief scuffle, however the armored and armed Einar overpowered Pedro and brought him to the Hyspian capital of Tierre Natal. After receiving his pay, he enlisted in the Army around the age of 30 to continue having a steady income to support his then four children. After the Inferi War, which Einar participated in alongside a Haenseni Cousin, Einar gathered his Family together and left for Almaris.
Almaris
Once arriving in Almaris, they were one of the many settlers who helped to build and settle the new capital of Varhelm. After the growth of the Family to Five, Einar began having ambitions of becoming a Jarl of Norland. He began by doubling his participation in the Norlandic Northguard, as well as going to several public events alongside his eldest sons Eyvind Kvitravn and Esben Kvitravn. Despite Einar's steady climb in the Norlandic world, tragedy soon struck the Family after the eldest son of Einar, the aforementioned Eyvind, succumbing to an illness. The entire clan went into mourning, and this only strengthened Einar's resolve to rise in Norland. Eventually during the first Court gathering of Norland, Halvar I decided to recognize Einar and his clan for their dedication to Norland, and specifically their act of patrolling the Ashwood tree that stood in Varhelm during tensions with the Druids. It was around this same time where Einar gained a reputation for slaying multiple bears on hunting trips, and was therefore dubbed 'The Bear-slayer.' Unfortunately on a mission with the Northguard to investigate the missing animals in Elysium, Einar was killed in combat with a Troll, which hit Einar on the head with a Club. This caused Einar's Skull to fracture, killing the man in less than an Hour. His eldest living Son named Esben then succeeded him as Clan Chieftain.
Esben 'The Unready'
After receiving the chieftainship, Esben fathered a boy named Eirik Esbensson Kviravn, and mostly kept to himself. He often felt too stressed by the mantle of chieftain, and so after two years of holding the title he passed it to his younger brother Olav Einarsson Kvitravn. By doing so, he skipped over his own infant son and the line of succession had to be reorganized with the third living brother Felix Einarsson Kvitravn becoming the new heir. Esben's two year reign is not exactly note-worthy, and Esben has since decided to live out a private life with his Son in the Kvitravn Estate.
Olav Einarsson Kvitravn
At the time of ascending the chieftainship, Olav was not a particularly well known son of Einar. As it has only been a few months since the beginning of Olav's reign, it is too early to decide what kind of leader he will be for the clan.
