• House of Alsalam, junior branch of House of Vinandy;
• House of Ayreon-Kalirion (imperial bloodline of Ayreon-Kalirion-Steffki)

Although Rafi is descended from the House of Osman, he cannot claim titles or inheritances. This is due to the marriage contract between his parents that governs this.

Shireroth

Coat of arms of the Duke of Vidarstadt

Rafi became Duke of Brandenburg in 1742, following the successive disqualifications of his elder siblings, each of whom had been removed from the title after contracting marriages without the required imperial approval. Unlike his predecessors, Rafi married lawfully with the consent of the Kaiser in 1746, making him the first compliant heir in a generation and securing his position as duke. During the reconciliation process between the House of Alsalam and the Golden Mango Throne in 1747, Rafi voluntarily relinquished the title in favour of his eldest brother, Aurangzeb Hakimi bin Alsalam, whose marriage was retroactively legitimised by Imperial Decree. This act of deference and dynastic solidarity was instrumental in resolving the succession crisis. In recognition of his loyalty, integrity, and faithful observance of imperial law, Kaiser Ayreon V created for him the title of Duke of Vidarstadt, which Rafi and his heirs were granted in perpetuity. Though no longer Duke of Brandenburg, Rafi and his legitimate descendants were confirmed as eligible for succession to that title should the senior line become extinct.
