The Boritsi family nearly 800 years ago were one of several successful mercantile families that used their wealth and influence to have themselves raised to the nobility of Prime Material Barovia when the nation was forged of independent city-states by the von Zarovich family in BC 1.[1] Along with the Dilisnya Family, this marks them as one of the oldest noble families in the Land of Mists.[2]
Historically, the family has been known for shrew skill in mercantile endeavors, such as the Boritsi Trading Company. The tendency towards soft-spoken mercantile ownership of everything in [[Borca], that changed with the death of Klaus Boritsi and the ascension of his wife Camille Dilisnya. Ruling with a harsh hand, Camille's preferred toil over trade, specifically, the toil of those on her land. The taxes she levied upon the nobles and other vassals were almost cruelly weighty, but those collected by her daughter Ivana Boritsi are even worse.[3]
Despite Camille and later Ivana's turn away from trade and commerce, Ivana's siblings and their descendants persist in operating the Boritsi Trading Company much as before. Prior to the Great Upheaval, Sulo removed his family (save for his eldest children) from Borca to Bergovitsa, Nova Vaasa. There he has reached commercial success not only in that domain but also across the noctural sea. Sulo installed several offices in Armeikos on the isle of Liffe. Anton Boritsi was not as shrewd, and he perished in 739 BC under suspicious circumstances. He is survived by his wife and two children (Hellena Boritsi and Bevel Boritsi, whom run his operations in his stead. The work of both brother and their descendants have helped to distance the Bortisi name from the brutal regimes of Camille and Ivana, or at least show there is more to the name than tyranny.[3]
The Boritsis are ones to take care of their friends, but they ensure great woe comes to those whom would transgress them.[4]
