House Tekiel is a one of the great noble houses on Scadrial. House Tekiel had been ranked fourth in power, lying just after House Elariel. [1]
House Tekiel had a political rivalry with House Izenry.[2] It was responsible for the building of Tekiel Tower in Elendel[Falta cita] and has canal routes through the eastern plains,[3] Due to the rivalries and suspicions sowed by Kelsier, House Tekiel lost a lot of business and began making debts. This destroyed their reputation and their finances were starting to crumble. In a last attempt to save face, they attempted to withdraw from Luthadel. The evening before their withdrawal, many members were assassinated and those remaining were supposedly attacked by bandits on the canal routes.[4] In actuality that had been the work of House Hasting.[4]
It was the subject of insurance fraud by the Set.[5]
Members include Tevidian Tekiel (Lord Prelan of the Steel Ministry) and his illegitimate children: Vin and her (unnamed) sister and young noblemen by the names of Salmen[2] and Kale Tekiel.[4]
