The Langfords are well-known for their scholarly pursuits, having worked in academia at [[Jewelspar#Institutions\|Jewelspar University]] for many centuries. They don't descend from any known nobility, but their contributions to studying the arcane are recognized and well-respected. Despite their [[List of Notable Bloodlines\|Bloodline]] being quite ancient, they lacked a consistent surname (not unusual among [[Elf\|High Elves]] for most of history) until the mid-[[PR]] era when [[Frances]] adopted the surname Langford to try and give herself a more noble-sounding stage presence. She created it using a portmanteau of Langston Avenue and [[List of Notable Bloodlines#Nobility\|Valenford Street]], an intersection in [[Jewelspar]] that she lived near at the time.

	~~Notably, in~~ the late [[PR]] era, '''Professor Wellam Langford''' predicted the [[Fracturing of the Weave]] and made great efforts to conserve the arcane properties of many magical artifacts. He accomplished this with the help of his wife [[Frances]] by constructing an artificial portal to the [[The Feywild\|Feywild]] beneath [[Jewelspar#Institutions\|Jewelspar University]] where they both taught, rescuing many artifacts from destruction by smuggling them through the portal before all planar magic became severed from the [[The Quelmar Realm\|Material Plane]]. He went so far as to relocate ~~his family~~ to [[Zobeck]] to continue their work during a time when the future legality of magic in [[Jewelspar]] seemed uncertain. The Langfords eventually returned to their ancestral [[~~plane~~]] in the [[The Feywild\|Feywild]]~~, using~~ the same portal they had secretly kept in [[Jewelspar]]~~, once~~ frays in the [[Fracturing of the Weave\|Weave]] finally began to show (except for [[Veras]], who had been hurled into the future by [[Chronepsis]] and missed his window to abscond the [[The Quelmar Realm\|Material Plane]] with the rest of his family).		In the late [[PR]] era, '''Professor Wellam Langford''' notably predicted the [[Fracturing of the Weave]] and made great efforts to conserve the arcane properties of many magical artifacts.
