House Brynd was a minor noble house based on Acamar.[1]

History[edit]

House Brynd was long established on Acamar during its time under the control of the Capellan Confederation prior to the Fourth Succession War, with a reputation for using their land more for agricultural, rather for the mining which was so common on that world. As a result of that focus, the Brynd's were considered by their tenants to have treated them well, which ensured they survived the transition to Federated Commonwealth control after Fourth Succession War.[2]

This allowed House Brynd to form a part of the People's Republic of Acamar, together with a number of other minor noble families on Acamar, between at least 3062 and 3067. The Brynds however had a number of disputes with their noble neighbors House Stevens and House Langdon, as well as with Johnston Industries, including over titanium deposits discovered on their land.

These included Johnston Industries arranging a covert raid on the Brynd landholdings by the mercenary unit the Broadstreet Bullies around 3067, which killed a number of Brynd family members.[3][4]

Known members of the family[edit]

Family Heirlooms and Holdings[edit]

House Brynd owned a landhold on Acamar's Katenga continent, which comprised approximately 1,400 km2 of agricultural land, and the three small towns of Justaine, Straand and Lopez. The landhold further contained a family manor and private spaceport, which were close to the town of Justaine.[2][5]

There was also a Brynd Industrial Complex on Acamar, which was possibly also associated with the family.[6]

In addition the Brynd's owned a single Scout-class JumpShip, the Daniel Brynd, as well as a Fury-class DropShip the Samantha.[7]
