History

The House of Cavendish originated in the 6th Century, being established by one of the Nine Olde Witches, Beatrix.

From the Middle Ages to the last war, the Cavendish used their magic to heal people regardless of whether they were allies or enemies. They kept these practices secret because of those who disagreed with them.

Family leadership has been inherited by generations of witches along the maternal line. This role can only be inherited in a ceremony during a Venusian Eclipse that only happens every many years, and it is said that a horrible calamity falls on all that interfere with the ritual.

Currently, Diana Cavendish being the legitimate heir apparent. However, due to the death of Diana's mother in her youth, Diana's aunt Daryl Cavendish and her mother's younger sister is the proxy head of the household. The period of her leadership has been one of decline for the family. She has little regard for their history and thinks magic itself is obsolete, and she has sold countless precious artifacts held by the family, often at discounted prices. She believes this practice is necessary to sustain the family, unlike her elder sister who helped others for free. Diana, old enough to put a stop to her, selflessly decided to leave her beloved Luna Nova and save the family from extinction by becoming its head. She was unable to complete the ritual due to stopping to save Daryl, but this act of kindness earned her the approval of Beatrix's spirit.
