Jaan van de Kuypers

The van de Kuypers family head is Jaan van de Kuypers, 57 years old. Reputedly the richest man in the world, he became the head of the family when his elder brother, Bertold, went insane and slaughtered their parents and sister. He counts among his personal friends the Tsar of Kislev, the King of Bretonnia, the Sultan of Araby and even Emperor Karl Franz and the Electors. All of them owe him money. He is the true leader of the Directorate: through his web of clients and contacts, he commands a block of eight votes. Allied to House van de Kuypers are Houses van Raemerswijk, van Scheldt, den Euwe and Rothemuur. Among the permanent seats, the High Priests of Hasndryk and Verena appreciate his pious gifts to the cults, while the Rector of Baron Henryk's is his cousin. Jaan van de Kuypers has never lost a vote on the Directorate, and some fear he plans to make all the Directors his puppets.
