The house was founded by Belsilvar Dreamsong, but brought to its height by the Silver Dragon Khilat. Progeny of Khilat and Arael Dreamsong formed the basis of the ascendant branch of Khilat.

The house was elevated to minor nobility when it successfully drew and wielded a Moonblade in -9,000 DR.

The house maintains a number of strongholds scattered throughout the Elven kingdoms, ostensively to support its merchant activities. The primary base of operations started as a major stronghold in the mountains of Evereska, but the Khilat household moved into the Vale of Evereska shortly after the founding of the city in -8,600 DR.

The Khilat family is known for producing skilled rangers, wizards and clerics. They are very often devoted to various deities; particularly the Seldarine, but occasionally serve other gods. They are known to be shrewd in business, but likewise generous in the support of good causes, shift funds and resources to support regions and allies in need.

Ranger

Wizards of the house excel in learning magic, often following unusual paths of study. Quite a few are able to master High Magic. Some are thought to draw upon other obscur sources of magic.


Septs

The minor houses of Dreamsong and Silverbow remain closely allied as septs of House Khilat. All children are evaluated by senior members of House Khilat, who secretly determine if sufficient dragon heritage has been passed down. Though this is rare among the sept lines, an occasional child is declared a member of the Khilat line, and conversely, some children of the Khilat household are rejected and declared members of their closest related sept.

Sept Dreamsong

The Dreamsong sept is .

This lesser house is known for producing skilled rangers, as well as wizards, fighters and an occasional bard. Many also serve as merchants who trade goods between Elven enclaves throughout Faerun.

Sept Silverbow

The Silverbow sept is the least of the branches, and provides servants and martial support for the Khilats.
