Tristan Amador was a Patriarch of the House of Amador from Anthos, father of James Amador who served as the Baron of the Shadowcoast under House Stafyr of Schattenburg, from the reign of King Heinrik I of the House of Carrion to Emperor Alexander I.
History
Tristan Amador was born circa 1415, likely in the Duchy of the Holy Lands in Asulon to Seth, Son of Jiraiya Amador & Elania Amador, daughter of Jack Amador. He was the grandson of Jiraiya Amador, who was still around during the early years of Anthos. Following the exodus from Elysium & Kalos, House Amador did not regain the influence it had previously had under the First Holy Orenian Empire, having lost several of its leading family members to mysterious circumstance on the subsequent voyages. Despite these personal hardships, The House of Amador remained extremely wealthy from their reign in the Holy Lands, from constructing the ships necessary for the aforementioned Exodus.
As a consequence, the Amador Patriarch, Tristan, used this fortune by ingratiating himself and the House of Amador by donating much of it to the betterment of House Carrion and their new patron Farley II of House Stafyr. After a time, Tristan Amador requested land and title from King Heinrik I of the House of Carrion, King of Oren. For context, Upon the death of Sigismund I, Exalted Holy Orenian Emperor, his successor and nephew, Henrik I, ascended to the throne of the second Holy Orenian Empire. However, he refused to adopt the style of Emperor, instead returning to the previously held designation of King of Oren. King Heinrik chose to elevate Tristan's son, James, to nobility, given that Tristan was a sickly man. In the Edict of Ireton, James Amador was granted the Barony of the Shadowcoast, situated on the coastline between Schattenburg and the land of Furnestock. After swearing their loyalty to the newly elevated Count Farley Stafyr, their new liege lord, House of Amador to reemerged into Oren politics and Nobility. Unfortunately, Tristan Amador died two years later, likely from the same source as those that killed his kin on the Exodus to Elysium
