 The Ker'Lachts are one of the three most powerful families on [[settings:ageron:toth|Toth]]. Out of all the families in the oligarchy, this one is strange in that they don't regularly practice necromancy.
 ====Members====
+===Onia===
+Onia flew threw her enhancement ceremony with ease, up until her final ritual somehow went horribly wrong. She was given off to an influential Pitlord, before she eventually cut his throat while he slept, and escaped back to Jaern. She is currently the head of the Ker'Lacht household.
+===Sithrus===
+Sithrus was tossed into a vat of teresium at a young age, and, well, let's just say it didn't go too well for him. He's now completely insane, and on a violent quest to get revenge on his family and anybody else who wronged him.
+====Deceased Members====
 ===Troghein===
-Troghein is the head of the Ker'Lacht household. He's a quiet and serious individual, with a reputation for cruel leanings and a short temper. He's publicly eviscerated several of his enemies, and has no particular care
+Troghein was the head of the Ker'Lacht household until 06/04/10072, when he was publicly killed by his son, Sithrus Ker'Lacht. He was a quiet and serious individual, with a reputation for cruel leanings and a short temper. He publicly eviscerated several of his enemies, and had no particular care for public relations. He was missing an eye, and sported a nasty scar covering one side of his face.
 ====Specialties====
 ===Demonic Pacts===
-While most other families prefer to use necromancy to obtain their power, members of the Ker'Lacht family actually resort to demonic magics, signing pacts with demons to infuse themselves with power.  Most family members begin their "enhancement" at the age of 7, where they are possessed by a demon for 24 hours, after which the demon leaves the host. This continues with several other dark rituals and magical procedures, which continue on until they reach the age of 14. This grants them several abnormal magical abilities, and makes them some of the most dangerous oligarchs to face in one-on-one combat. However, as a drawback, these procedures are extremely risky, and about 25% of the children fail the procedure, often with horrendous side effects; children who fail are "donated" to the demons.

 ===Human Trafficking===
 In order to maintain their demonic obligations, the Ker'Lacht family needs to obtain a steady supply of sacrifices. A large portion of the usual "missing persons" cases that occur in the city can probably be attributed to the Ker'Lachts' need of slaves and souls.

 Depending on the experience and power of the individual, members of the Ker'Lacht family can have access to a variety of underlings. Some of the minions that you may typically find are:
   * Demon Spawn (All "fully enhanced" members)
-  * Imps (Higher level members)
+  * Imps (Experienced, mid rate members)
+  * Spike Demons (Powerful, high rate family members)
 ====Missing Children====
-About 25% of children do not successfully complete all of the process of becoming "enhanced". If any of the procedures or rituals fail, the child typically receives some kind of horrendous physical or psychological side effect. Legally, these children are considered missing, though most in the family assume them to be dead. Currently, there are 3 individuals that have failed and are still possibly alive, though by now, it is entirely possible that they have reached adulthood.

-===Onia===
-Onia was an extremely promising family member; she was the most powerful lizard to have been born within the family for centuries, with a brain to match. She almost successfully completed all of her enhancements, but her final rite was sabotaged, as the magic items used for the ritual were secretly replaced with much more powerful artifacts. She screamed out in agony as the runes painted onto her skin burned a bright blue color, and she collapsed, covered in strange markings. She was comatose for a month, before the family forfeited her seemingly lifeless body to an influential pit lord.
+====Appendix====
-===Sudari===
+===Pronunciation Guide===
-Sudari was quiet, concise, and brusque. The process from which her strength was supposed to be augmented failed, randomly enlarging parts of her body and leaving her as an indescribable mess of flesh. To make things worse, her body was turned into that of a male, leaving the poor preteen horrible perplexed about her gender identity. The family felt embarrassed to look upon their malformed, gender-confused child, and hastily smuggled her unconscious body to their demonic allies.
+  * Ker'Lacht: K-air Lock-t
-===Ano===
+  * Troghein: Tr-oh-gay-n
-Ano was a bit of an artist, and had a passion for painting and poetry. However, he was paired with a particularly nasty demon during his first phase of enhancement, who tortured and fed off of the child instead of expanding Ano's magical potential. He was discarded without too much care, as the family had little care for his whimsical nature.
