Editing Red Cliff Domain (section)

===Faius Gisto family and entourage===

* '''Beltis Mageera''' Eldest daughter of General Faius Gisto. Recruited by the Pure Sky Burnished Kite League, she took a caravan of Lodrili farmers to Pavis to reunite with her father in the Red Cliff Domain. When her father died she took on the mantle of running the colony, stating that her father's soul had not departed but was now resident in his unit's standard and that she was taking instruction from him. She soon entered into conflict with her stepmother and half-brother. Eventually these were driven out. On more formal occasions, Beltis wears the headress and robes of a Hon-eel acolyte. 

* '''Erinetha of Alda-Chur''' A tribeswoman of the Tovtaros, Erinetha took up with Theophilon some two-score years ago and travelled with him on his campaigns until his death. Something of a wild woman, her exotic dress and her insistence on going barefoot to show off her blue tattoed feet only contributed to Faius Gisto's ever-spiralling reputation. Although Erinetha seemed to get on with Theophilon's daughter Beltis, the two began arguing after his death, eventually leading to Erinetha quitting the grantland with her son in tow. Traders have brought rumours that she has since been seen frequenting Duke Raus' townhouse in Pavis, sporting fine silks and leather shoes of all things. No-one knows quite what to make of it, while none have dared broach the subject with Betis. (Erinetha's epithet was given her by her husband's men, though naturally she is not from Alda-Chur and in fact always despised the place).

* '''Theophilon Faius Gisto III (deceased)''' Dara Happan General, hero of the invasions of Sartar and Heortland, father to Beltis and holder of the Red Cliff Domain grantland before his death. While Theophilon was on campaign, his wife (Beltis' mother, a minor noble) and daughters remained in their native Raibanth. During the Sartar campaign, he took a tribeswoman from the uplands near Alda-Chur to his bed. She was named Erinetha and with their two sons travelled with Theophilon on his subsequent campaigns, though the elder of the boys was killed by a river spirit while boating.  After the Third Ford Incident, a disastrous manouevre that led to the loss of almost an entire polemarch, Theophilon retired to take up the Red Cliff Domain on the Zola Fel. He died of the chills some three seasons later. According to Beltis, his soul now resides in his unit's standard, that she keeps in her house. 

* '''Theophilon Faius Gisto IV''' Son of Faius Gisto and Erinetha, driven out by Beltis with his mother.

* '''The Blue Beetle''' Mageera' most expensive slave. Once groomed for priesthood in Teshnos, the eunuch now serves as scribe and steward.

* '''Bellabarisruk, Warden of the Seven Keys''' Lunar Magician who stole the moon reed secret from the Darjiini. The secret alone is not enough, so he rode the Crimson Bat to the moon to steal the reeds too.

* [[Clan Cangachero]]. '''Earth, Life, Disorder.'''Rice farmers and ...erm...bandits. In that order...possibly. We are not a war clan, but a Take your resources clan.

* '''Weeders''' A few Darjiini, worshippers of Vargar, who came to the Domain with (DHG). They keep to themsleves. Includes our Moonboat pilot and a competent healer-witch.
