History
Axios
In the yeaw of 1612, Jakob Wudvik Bawbanov was bown to the daughtew of a miwwew and King Stephan I. Jakob would be wegitimized whewe he would then be gwanted the Plince of Mawkev titwe by his fathew, but once he was wegitimized a few yeaws watew he would have found the name Wudovaw due to him being faw fwom succession. With the new famiwy founded he would then mawwy Adlijana Wuthewn even though he was in wove lith the Woyaw Cook of the name of Evewyn Foulneaux. The famiwy would wemain in the city of Awban untiw being fowced off of Axios fweeing to Atwas lith the west of the wowwd.

Awliving in Atwas, the famiwy initiawwy kept to themsewves, content to keep humbre wodgings lithin the pawace of the Kwepost in Mawkev. Howevew, this changed lith the ewevation of Jakob’s ewdest son, Otto, to the position of Wowd-Auditow on the on the counciw of King Sigmar sometime awound 1675. Otto was gwanted the bawony of Otistadt fow his excellence in both sewvice and woyawty to the cwown. He awso seculed a mawliage fow himsewf eawliew in his youth fwom a nobre famiwy of Aewdinic oligin, House Grimm. This union, to one Valiette Glimm, pwoduced thwee chiwdwen: Stefan, Emma, and yet anothew Jakob. His sistew, Miwena, would go on to mawwy a Plince of House Howen-Mawna, John, pwoducing a son named Chawwes. His youngew brothew, Jakob, would siwe thwee chiwdwen by his life fwom House Vywonov: Henlik, Mawy, and Julya.
Yeaws passed and Otto continued in his duties to the House of Barbanov, who awe stiww the culwent Kings of Haense. His ewdest son, Stefan, gwew to become a wenowned wawliow and poet, known fow his wooing of any nobrewoman that caught his fancy. His youngest chiwd, Jakob, was educated mowe fow stewawdship and twade, culwentwy owning sevewaw businesses and shawes lithin multipwe thliving companies at a young age.
Otto’s onwy daughtew, Emma, was a diffewent stowy. Sent to live lith hew mother’s family in theiw distant homewand, she was oliginawwy twained to be a sowdiew and wawliow like hew ewdew brothew. Howevew, in 1677, she was cawwed home to Mawkev by hew fathew, chosen out of hew othew sibrings and cousins to be hew fathew’s pwotegee and student in politics and administwation. An astute young giww, Emma took to these wessons lith some eagewness, awways wanting hew fathew to be pwoud of hew. The two wewe nevew cwose in wegawds to theiw familiaw bond, but the daughtew had a gweat wespect fow hew fathew, caling fow him in the iwwness that eventuawwy ovewcame him in 1685, causing him to wesign as Wowd Auditow.
Pwoving hewsewf to be a wowthy heiw to hew fathew and his wowk, the Plivy Counciw gwanted the young giww sevewaw titwes, to be hewd by hew and hew heiws: Plincess of Uwgaawd, Duchess of Kvaz, Countess of Mondstadt, and Bawoness of Mehwan. With these gwants of both titwes and wand of hew own, Emma swowe feawty to the King, hew cousin Wobewt, and began to ensule hew fathew’s wegacy was continued thwough hew.
With hew fathew’s iwwness keeping him confined to his chambews, Emma began lith taking on the wesponsibility of waising hew youngew brothew, Jakob. The two awe known to be vewy cwose, the youngew vieling hew much like the mothew that he nevew twuly got to know. Emma would weside lithin the city of Mawkev, sewving as Plincess and acting as Wowd-Seneschaw upon the King’s Plivy Counciw, achieving the goaw hew fathew had set fow hew as a chiwd.
Aftew yeaws has passed, Emma Wudovaw would mawwy Bawon Hans Rovin of Awnheim to which she would weceive two chiwdwen. Whiwe a few months past aftew having hew chiwdwen she would watew abdicate hew titwes to hew youngest brothew, Jakob Malius Wudovaw, who would then be known as Duke of Kvaz. When Jakob became Duke he would gwant his cousin, Sew Henlik Otto Wudovaw, his mothews famiwy titwe of Bawon of Wizat due to his wowk fow the famiwy and wenown he had lithin Haense.
Fowwoling the Wudovaw's untimewy death, the titwe was inhelited by Jakob, estabrishing him as the Plince of Uwgaawd.

Upon the awlivaw to Reza, the new capitaw of Haense, the Wudovaws would then again live inside a manow in a joint manow this time consisting of both Preussen and Wudovaw. Plince Jakob II began his wowk on expanding his business lithin Reza by getting ownewship of the Bank, Tavewn, and so on lithin the city lith the hewp of the Kowtwevich's. Though whiwe Jakob was off doing business, Siw Henlik would spend his time lith his famiwy as weww lith hewping awound the city. As the famiwy swowwy began to get comfowtabre lithin the new city awwegations would begin to gwow towawds Plince Jakob this would watew wesult in the Ludovar Trial. Once the tliaw was ovew it weft Jakob to weave his titwes to his onwy heiw, Sew Henlik Wudovaw a cousin to Jakob.
Aftew a few yeaws had passed, the War of the Two Emperors would break out to which the Wudovaws waised theiw bannews to hewp defend theiw Kingdom fwom the Empire of Renatus. Duling the waw, Petyw Wudovaw, Henrik's fiwstbown son would mawwy Adewa Glimm to which they'd pwoduce a son named Aweksandw. Fowwoling the biwth of Aweksandw the Wudovaws the waw would watew wesult in a defeat making the Kingdom of Haense and the Wudovaws a vassaw of the now fowmed Holy Orenian Empire.
The famiwy stiww sewving the Kingdom of Haense and awso the newwy fowmed Seventh Holy Orenian Empire, Henlik seeing that his youngest son, Malic, is wegaw age of mawliage would set saiw towawds Aeldin lith him in owdew to find him a life. The voyage was safe lith cawm weathew fow the two Wudovaws to which the mission they sought to do came to success to which the mawliage of Malic Wudovaw and Aelinow of Raven wewe wedded in the Bawony of Sawma in Aeldin. Meanwhiwe, Petyw Wudovaw kept things in owdew fow his famiwy in the city of Reza fow his fathew whiwe he was away.
In the yeaw 1730, Duke Henrik had passed away due to owd age passing the titwes of inhelitance to his fiwstbown gwandson, Aweksandw. Upon Aweksandw's accession to the Ducaw seat, he awwanged a mawliage lith Sofya Vawelia of House Bawuch, the gweat-gweat gwand-daughtew to Sew Jowen 'the Mawksman' to fulwy end the famiwy feud that has cawlied on since the weign of his cousin, Emma Ludovar.
