The Systres Archipelago, encompassing High Isle, Amenos, Galen, and Y'ffelon

House Mantel was a Breton noble family dating at least back to the twenty-fifth century of the First Era. They were briefly rulers of the Systres, after the previous rulers of the isles, House Guimard fell into disfavor because of a jilted marriage proposal in ca. 1E 2477. Their reign over the archipelago was short-lived however, because of the eruption of the Mount Firesong in 1E 2484. This cataclysmic event claimed the lives of nearly one-third of the archipelago's inhabitants, including nearly all of the nobility, ending their rule over the isles.[1]

Although the exact fate of the house is unknown, by the middle Second Era, Mantel was a common surname across Bretons in Wayrest,[2][3] and Daggerfall in High Rock.[4][5]
