			The va’Argos family has its roots deep in the history of the area which now makes up Southern Julaspium, dating back well into the time of the former empire. All the countless hardships and changes that have befallen these lands, from the fall of the empire, numerous wars, revolutions and switching of leadership to outbreaks of disease…all these the va’Argos family has slowly but surely endured. Their resilience is a trademark of sort one could say. The most recent trial they faced was surely the revolution, which had them on their knees, practically destroyed.

			They took many casualties, with several family lines completely killed off. A notable loss for them was also having to relinquish full control of the Llargos Mining Company to the newer nobility. But like ever in the past, with the passing of that storm and the years following, with their ever methodical and skilful practice of business they eventually regained just about everything including control over the mining and metalwork in Llargos. They have even expanded in the recent decades, mostly with supplying the army with various gear and notably mass weaponry.

	~~[[Image:VaArgos~~.~~jpg\|thumb\|va'Argos Suit]]~~		The aspects with which the va’Argos family prides itself most are tradition and their ‘true’ nobility. They are very proud of their bloodline and do not allow just anyone into the family, and especially anywhere near the family business. Though there is always only one head of the family, practically all the members are in one way or another involved with the business, starting at an early age. When the current head of the family is close to his death or is no longer fit to run the business, it is handed down to one who is deemed most suitable. The decision of who this will be is never taken lightly, and often involves numerous consultations amongst the senior members of the family.
