The '''Avelleur family''' was unusual among the most influential dynasties of [[Ta'Illistim]], as they were very unlikely to speak of their own accomplishments or brag about what they have been doing recently. They rarely visited the courts, unless summoned, and ignored the usual frivolities of court politics. They would be virtually unknown if it were not for their long history of major developments in [[sorcery]], which perhaps has had a tenuous status in Illistim culture, for obvious reasons, as well as their general predisposition towards purely [[elemental]] magic.

The most prominent member of the Avelleur family was only recently acknowledged as part of their bloodline. "The Nameless Necromancer" was responsible for developing the [[740|Planar Shift]] spell, amongst [[Pale Embrace|darker]] [[Reaver's Call|magic]], that has since been widely adopted by the [[Sorcerer Guild]].

They were unusually well connected with [[House Faendryl]] for Illistim nobility, and were critical in brokering the diplomatic relations that followed the incident of [[Rhythus Veranthe Faendryl]] in 5103 Modern Era. The rogue sorcerer had inadvertently released massive [[abyran'ra]] demons while trying to make a showy case for the harmlessness of demonic summoning. There was a peaceful exchange of knowledge, followed by buttressing of the Ta'Illistim defenses against the [[lesser demon|demonic]], and the widespread adoption of [[725|minor summoning]] techniques throughout [[Elanith]]. There is now a Sorcerer Guild in Ta'Illistim, as well as a Faendryl embassy. It is by far the most significant political accomplishment of their family history.
