A family founded in the Empire of Akritos by Dionisius Dracontas The First; first Commander of the Akritian Army. After the fall of the Empire, they have moved to the North to seek a place to stay, historical archives say that they were residing in Hanseti-Ruska for a while and eventually became citizens there. The House of Dracontas is extremely devoted to the religion of The Church of Canon, as even in the old days, they kept themselves to the behavior that they should have when they are in a war and concluded as victorious.

When the Barony of Trabzon was built, they decided to move there in order to reunite with their lost Akritian brothers and sisters rather than adapting to the culture of someone else. Georgios Dracontas, son of Dionisius Dracontas VIII was put in Command of the Varangian Guard.
