Does anyone knows the Starym's sigil crest (or coat of arms)?
Also, in the Ruins Of Myth Drannor boxed set it is stated that they left the city when it was open to non elves and moved to the Thunder Peaks. Is there any hints of old Starym strongholds in these mountains? |

I had postulated that after breaking with the elves of Cormanthyr, some of the Starym had travelled to a refuge in the Wood of Sharp Teeth.

Any link to Askavar? |

Where did you find this information, Hoondatha?
I'm asking this because I found a description of the Starym sigil in the Volo's Guide To All Things Magical that do not fit your description: "three stars set in an equilateral triangle around an open maw".
Maybe the Starym have two different sigils?
Cormanthyr: Empire of the Elves, pg 117. It could be a matter of semantics? A sigil may be different from a coat of arms? I'm just guessing there, though. |

Posted - 04 Oct 2015 : 20:17:37 Complete fanon, but as part of my Netheril rewrite I'm having a distantly related branch of House Starym from Siluvanede, that fell in with the Daemonfey, travel to the Hidden Valley (modern Shoal of Thirst/Shadow Sea) to stir up the goblinoids and ogres to attack Seventon.
This was in retaliation for the netherese theft of the nether scrolls and a stockpile of vyshaan weapons that were part of the dlardrageth armouries.
The ogre magi general storm was the result of a millennia of demonic breeding programs with House Marstrym.
Anyway, after Netheril falls, most of House Marstrym are destroyed in the battles for the Hidden Valley in -339 and onwards.
One notable survivor flees to the Stonelands (her name is Meliah'l, but perhaps a few others flee south into the Thunderpeaks. House Starym later find these abandoned strongholds and note the similar symbol and so claim them for themselves. |

I don't have any information on Starym holdings in the Thunder Peaks off the top of my head, though Volo's Guide to All Things Magical states that they also had holdings deep inside Hullack Forest. Those holdings may or may not have been destroyed when much of the remaining family was slain by a vengeful half-elven ranger. |
