Keth Family

The Keth family is one of the nine Great Families who rule over the Old City of Surket. They own the Bank of Surket and the Bazaar, as well as a multitude of other businesses and properties. In fact, it is estimated that upwards of 25% of Surket is owned directly or indirectly by the Keth family. The Keths are considered to be one of the Triumvirate, the three most powerful families in Surket.

A family of bankers and businessmen, the Keth family are involved in virtually every business venture in the city. There are only a few districts that they have no property in whatsoever and their businesses stretch across the Veridian Sea. While their personal finances are kept private, some have estimated that the Keth family alone is the wealthiest family in the known world and, if they were a nation, they would be the 9th largest economy in the world. They have so many businesses that, if you are in Surket, it is very likely that you are paying the Keths in some way when buying nearly anything.

Anyone who generates enough capita to be considered a big name in Surket will likely find themselves in contact with the Keths. Amir and Penelope Keth, who operate the family business, act as a sort of power couple, buying and selling businesses and turning a profit at a frivolous pace. Amir acts as the Consul for the Council of Surket and Penelope runs the Bank of Surket, but the two functionally act as one, with Amir's shrewd business-sense and ruthless tactics complimenting Penelope's disarming charm and grace. The two have a single daughter, Veronica, who is set to inherit the entire Keth fortune.
