Darudia Volvagia

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 20:03:41 CDT

Member: YI KWANG HANG

Name: Darudia Volvagia
Race: Human
Homeland: Bretonnia

Profession: Warrior
Weapons: Darudia carries a steel longsword of intricate design. This sword glows with an effulgent purple. He also carries a mithril shortsword, a gift from his old benefactors, and a hunting knife. His gauntlets are specially crafted for pugilism.
Equipment: He also carries a steel buckler, with red leather and a signet of his old village. He possessive a curious amulet which sits directly on his chest, no chain nor string to hold it. It glows a deep purple under certain circumstances.

Age: 65
Gender: Male
Height: 5'10"
Appearance
Darudia is well built, with broad shoulders and thick muscles. He is an old man, but has the appearance of a forty year old. His youthfulness is baffling to most, but his life has been slow, which can be seen in his eyes and face.

Personality
He is a proud man, with many a year of battle and wisdom. Though his stance and attitude suggest strength and integrity, his eyes are dulled with the many years he has wandered the lands. He is a kind man, always helping those less fortunate. The kindness showed to him through life has made him inherently good and just. In battle he is different, his eyes glow with a purple sheen and he becomes quite frantic, but still fairly controlled.

History
Darudia grew up in Couronne with his parents. His father, once the apprentice of a Swashbuckling Scholar in L'Anguille, home-educated him for all the time he knew him. His mother was a housewife by name and nature, and spent her time tending their garden, cooking their food, and so on. Until that day when he was but 17, his life had been poor, but enjoyable.

Darudia’s father had been cutting in the Arden forest one day when the tree he had felled landed on a stray hyppogryph, killing it instantly. After a few minutes of removing the fallen trunk, it was found that the beast had belonged to the Duke of Couronne. As the duke came back from the plains with his men, where they had been hunting, he found Darudia’s father and his friends standing around his dead pet. In a fury he imposed a sentence of Death, but after negotiations the Duke admitted it sounded a legitimate accident, but demanded the men and their families move out of Couronne and to another settlement. With this over there heads, Darudia’s family and those of his friends formed a migration group and headed far away to Carcassonne.

During this migration, the group ran into some trouble. While trekking along the Grismerie River past Mousillon, the group was attacked by bandits, and though the majority of the group carried hatchets and other axes, Darudia’s father and mother were murdered in cold blood right before him. After arriving at Carcassonne, Darudia split from everyone he knew, and went to live in a small hamlet just north of the Irenna Mountains, which he had heard of from a citizen of Carcassonne. Making his rent by teaching the children of the hamlet all his father had taught him, Darudia lived a peaceful life, far from all he had forgotten, and all he didn’t want to remember.

After many years Darudia was approached by a friend within the village, who inducted him into a small clan, known as the Order of Irrenica. He was sent away with a group of warriors from various backgrounds to the forest of Athel Loren, where he was greeted by the wood elves, but only because of two of the members of his party. Upon the completion of their task Darudia's longsword, which he had held by his side for many many years was enchanted by the village elder, and he was granted an amulet of great power and an Irrenian Shield, hand-made by the village blacksmith, a great worker of metals. Though the shield was not as strong as many, it was a symbol of the aid he was able to give to people, regardless of his poor peasant history.

20 years down the road, long after his adventure with dwarf brothers Gromi and Gulli, noble Brokk, and Leyathorn and Tanaka the wood elves, he finds the lands of the empire. After many long and slow years, Darudia came upon an elf named Thoryl, and his acquaintance, Cadranmil. A curios meeting as, though he didn't know it, Thoryl was the son of Tanaka, the elf he'd known long ago.

Dirk Garret

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 11:31:58 CDT

Member: YI KWANG HANG

Name: Dirk Garret
Race: Human
Homeland: Araby

Profession: Alchemist
Weapons:He carries a short steel sword, which is curved and very light, but surprisingly durable. He also has a whip which he carries. This is a powerful weapon, but is mostly used to swing from things. He also has a large belt of very sharp, but wooden, knives. He carves them himself and uses them for throwing and for sneaking up on people. Though they are very well sharpened, because they are just wood, they cannot be used more than once.
Equipment:He has a few pouches of carious alchemical ingredients, traveling light on most occasions. He also carries a red canteen which he has on him at all times. This contains a particular potion of his he uses most often.

Age: 23
Gender: Male
Height: 5'8"
Appearance
Dirk is 5’8" and is quite well built, but slim. He wears leather armor over which he has deep purple trousers and jacket. His hair is close to dreadlocks and he has a small beard and his eyes are a deep, deep blue. His skin is quite tanned and slightly leathered, but not significantly.

Personality
He is respectful of those who deserve it, but has a very cheeky and playful disposition. Dirk is a very bouncy fellow, both socially and in battle. His fighting style involves a great amount of taunting, cart-wheeling, back-flipping and other evasive measures. He is a very kind person, and has a great feel for how people think.

History
Dirk’s childhood was poor and uneventful. He grew up in a hovel in Al-Haikk, in the North-west of Araby. His parents were not good people and ignored him most of the time, leading to his apt for self-sufficiency.

When he was around 12 years old he met a boy a bit younger than him, called Marn. This boy’s father was an alchemist and Dirk spent the next few years as the boy’s best friend and the Alchemist’s most avid listener. He learned many tricks with potions and concoctions, and by the time he was 15 he knew more than many 20 year old alchemists.

When he was 18 he took his skill up the Great Ocean and around the Empire. Him and Marn travelled across the Reikland, Praag, and even the Ostland. Alas, not many people wanted an Alchemist-for-hire and those that did, were going to find one who wasn’t dirt-trodden and young.

Dirk and Marn tried for a long time to make an honest living, but soon turned to the outside of the law. The spent 3 years in the Ostland and High Pass, raiding travelers and generally stealing what they could. Growing up in Al-Haikk they were no strangers to thievery and found that men of the Empire were not so accustomed to their ways, making them easier targets than the street rats back home. They both became very successful thieves and made a moderate amount of money without being caught.

When Dirk was 22 and Marn was 20, they decided they had had all the fun they needed. They had money, clothes, and an abundance of skills. They made the vow to go legit and travelled back into the busier parts of the empire, looking for honest work. They were well accepted into the Empire and with their illegitimate wages bought themselves lodgings and tools with which to work the meager jobs of men.

A few months of laying low and their endeavors caught them up. It happened in Praag. Marn and Dirk had found an inn full of wealthy and stupid people. They had been gambling, clearing the pockets of the locals and making more money than they had done for weeks. Unfortunately the man they were playing was an old acquaintance.

They had not recognized him, as they had seen a lot of faces, but he recognized them. They had ambushed his caravan only a few weeks before, killed one of his men and stolen a great quantity of gold and spices. After their game, they stepped outside only to be jumped by three dwarves, who dragged them off into the woods by the city.

It was here they were tied to trees and left for three days. On the fourth morning the man returned with his stunted friends, declaring his intent to beat the two senseless and until they were dead. He released Marn first and broke him bone by bone in front of Dirk, but when Dirk was cut down his hand went straight to his belt of spikes, with which he stabbed the man in the eye. Escaping into the wood he managed to get away from the dwarves.

Returning the next day he found Marn's body crumpled on the floor, leaves and debris scattered across him. Dirk cleaned him off and carried his broken form all the way back to the Ostland were they made their living together. He buried his body amongst the roots of the trees and took Marn's canteen and sword. The only possessions he had ever carried.

Dirk then travelled, working meaningless jobs in taverns and suchlike, staying out of Praag. After a while he found the Guild Hall for Adrashtai Quasa Shelteth, and purely out of curiosity, entered. As he knew no-one in the entire world he had nothing to lose. His only friend dead, his parents never really part of his life. So he decided to stay with the guild.

NPC - Ccaine

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 11:17:58 CDT

[An NPC is not literally a Non-Playable Character. In this case, an NPC is merely a character who is not directly involved in the story, but helps to move it along. They are usually member's previous characters, borrowed from older RPing circles.]

Member: YI KWANG HANG

Name: Ccaine
Race: Unknown
Homeland: Unknown

Age: 32
Gender: Male
Height:4'11"

Relation to AQS
Ccaine is, to all purposes and intents, an informant, bound to Darudia with his life. Ccaine was raised outside of his race and now lives a life of good, something against his nature greatly.

Description
Ccaine is a very small figure. His body is completely hidden by he purple cloak that envelops his body, giving him the nickname 'Shroud' amongst rookies and vets. He is a vicous fighter, and is far more able without weapons. His skill with arms leaves much to be desired, but his unnatural speed and stealth make him an excellent scout.

Cadranmil Goodroot

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 11:08:13 CDT

Member: WINGZERO

Name: Cadranmil Goodroot
Race: High Elf
Homeland: Saphery

Profession: Swordmaster
Weapons: Cadranmil often packs very light, carrying only a Composite Bow. On occasion he has been known to wield a great claymore typical of Swordmasters.
Equipment: As a general rule, Cadranmil carries no other equipment aside his bow and sometimes sword.

Age: 330
Gender: Male
Height: 6'5"
Appearance
Cadranmil is of slight build, but stands strong in any situation. He has a stance of power and leadership, though he is of lesser bulk than many. He is a typical High Elf, always presentable, and has very young features, making him look quite less aged than he is. He is mostly seen wearing white robes with blue trim.

Personality
Cadranmil is of a kind personality and tries to fight his Elvish instincts when dealing with other races. He, like most Elves, is distrustfuol, but not nearly as much as Thoryl of Light. People often remember him for his kind manners, but his temper can be short and his rage consuming.

History
Cadranmil led a very normal life when he was young. He was raised in the Great Elf city of Saphery, and grew as any other Elven boy. When he came of age, he was eager to do his duty and joined the Town Guard with great haste. He had seen small amounts of action with Dark Elf raiding parties so had some combat experience. His training in the Town Guard rapidly improved his skill with a bow, and by the time he left, his aim and dexterity were near perfect.

When his time in the Guard was up, Cadranmil trained in the White Tower with the Swordmasters, training his skills in close-range combat. He spent many decades training with the Swordmasters and soon became bored. He was eager to test his skills in the real world.

Unfortunately, he bit off more than he could chew. He joined one of the more esteemed guilds of the Empire. The guild was predominantly built of mages and was at a constant need for men-at-arms. On his first mission he found out why. Some terrible and cataclysmic event took place, an event that only a number of people lived to speak of. Two of these people were Cadranmil and Thoryl, who had become very close during the job.

It was not long before the two became frustrated with the guild. Thoryl was at constant battle with the hierarchy of the guild and they were not recieving full payment for dangerous jobs. It seemed the guild only wanted to collect artifacts and further their own power. They had no care for the approaching danger of darkness.

It was not long before Cadranmil left to set up his own guild, with the aim of meeting the growing dangers head on. He took with him Thoryl, and with a man of Bretonnia, whom he had known for some time, formed their guild.

NPC - Leyathorn Elmeur

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 11:04:21 CDT

Member: YI KWANG HANG

Name: Leyathorn Elmeur
Race: Wood Elf
Homeland: Athel Loren

Age: 212
Gender: Male
Height: 6'2"

Relation to AQS
Leyathorn is a great friend and trusted companion of Tanaka's and a well-known acquaintance of Darudia. He was also one of the peopel who took the Long Walk Home with Tanaka and his wife when she was pregnant.

Description
Leyathorn is not as tall as some Elves, but he is surprisingly muscly but very stealthy. As a Wood Elf he was lethal in the forest, able to strike down any opponent before they even know he's there. His weakness lies in melee combat, but he is skilled in Alchemy. A useful trait in many situations.

Thoryl of Light

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 11:02:50 CDT

Member: WINGZERO

Name: Thoryl of Light
Race: Wood Elf
Homeland: Athel Loren

Profession: War Dancer
Weapons: Thoryl carries a long wooden bow and two longswords. One sword is of Dwarven craft, gifted to him at his birth, the other is a rare blade of Ioc, given to him by his father, Tanaka of Light.
Equipment: Thoryl carries no other equipment, but like most Wood Elves, he has a sprite which has chosen him as it's home.

Age: 120
Gender: Male
Height: 6'7"
Appearance
Thoryl is of medium build, slightly more built than many Elves, but not as much as many Men. He always wears the uniform of the Glade Guard, his old unit, but he also wears a bandanna across his lower face, adding to his imposing presence.

Personality
Thoryl is a shady figure, preferring his own company over most. He is very distrustful, but those he calls friends, he trusts more than himself. Striking out against one of his friends is like striking at him. He is a kind person at heart, and it is more than possible to have an enjoyable conversation with him. In battle he is fierce and has been called on a number of occasions 'the Wild Animal'

History
Thoryl is the son of noble wood-elf Tanaka of Light, which has led to a slightly abnormal birth and upbringing. Due to the shadowy nature of Thoryl's being, most of his history is unknown and certain fragments are known only by certain individuals. However, if all the information is gathered only the following would be known:

His father Tanaka was often suspected as been touched by chaos. As a result his father spent most his adult life outside of the forest. However, when Thoryl's mother fell pregnant with him, she left the forest in search of Tanaka. When the two were finally reunited Tanaka decided it was time to return home and gathered a small band of warriors, and made the dangerous march home. It was not long before Tanaka made it back and his wife gave birth to Thoryl, who grew up on the legends of the brave who helped return him.

Thoryl was only seen as a child once when his father took him to see his friends outside of Loren. By this point the dwarves of the returning party had crafted a sword, as a gift and a reminder to Thoryl of the brave people who risked everything, to get his father and mother home. The group often remarked about Thoryl's playful nature and that he was quite talkative.

At some point in time Thoryl was involved in a great tragedy. The village of his home was burned to the ground, his friends impaled on the spearheads of unkown adversaries. The event caused a great locking in Thoryl's mind. He was warped into a being of distrust and secrecy, keeping his thoughts to him alone. After time, he found the guild of his father, the home of the Disciples of the Eight. Here he found his new home, but if only for a while.

Thoryl had to earn his keep within the guild, so he trained as best he could, striving to fight darkness wherever it may rear it's horned skull. However, he was sent on a job with an allied guild (this is how he met Cadranmil) but something terrible happened, resulting in the death of a number of people. To this day Cadranmil and Thoryl have spoken of very little of this to anyone.

Thoryl decide that life at the guild was to dangerous and left with Cadranmil. The two, along with another man, Darudia Volvagia, established a guild of their own, aimed at fighting the forces of destruction however possible.

NPC - Tanaka of Light

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 11:01:30 CDT

Member: WINGZERO

Name: Tanaka of Light
Race: Wood Elf
Homeland: Athel Loren

Age: 120
Gender: Male
Height: 6'7"

Relation to AQS
Tanaka is Thoryl's father. He is also an acquaintance of Darudia's, Darudia being one of the people that brought Tanaka and his wife back to Athel Loren when Thoryl was almost to be born.

Tanaka is bound to a dark spirit called Raikar. Raikar is a life-long rival of Tanaka's, and when Tanaka beat him in battle, his soul was bounded to Tanaka by dark magic.

Thorek Gurrksunn

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 09:09:53 CDT

Member: YI KWANG HANG

Name: Thorek Gurrksunn
Race: Dwarf
Homeland: Kraka Drak

Profession: Runesmith
Weapons:Thorek carries an axe which was embedded with runes by his father, a great Runelord and Thorek's master in Runesmithing. The axe is a double-edged battle axe with a think and quite heavy steel rod for a handle. The end of the handle is adorned with a spike with four flat sides, curving inwards to a point. The head of the weapon is almost a full circle, save for the triangles missing from the top and bottom and the edge is razor-sharp.
Equipment:Except for his Gromril and a number of runes, Thorek carries very little. The only other possesions he holds are a runic medallion, empowering him with a finer and more precise feel for the earth, allowing him to detect oncoming opponents way before most dwarves. The other is a necklace belonging to his mother. It is crafted of the finest gold and is studded with a single Ruby, about the size of a baby humans palm, and cut flat.

Age: 130
Gender: Male
Height: 5'3"
Appearance
Thorek has dark red/brown hair and a moderately long beard of slightly darker colour. He is a stocky character, though not as built as some dwarves of his age. He is quite trusting for a Dwarf and has a surprising amount of respect for Elves. He has a subtle dislike of humans, mostly aimed at Bretons, but is generally a friendly and loyal companion. Though he takes a grudge as seriously as the next Dwarf.

Personality
When in a situation of dire need or when filled with a vengeance, Thorek's appearance changes ever so slightly. His hair and beard lose their brown colour and become more red and his eyes lose their brown also, becoming a subtle blue. These are characteristics of his brother Gormrim, though he does not by any means adopt his brothers features.

History
Thorek is a twin, born in Kraka Drak. When he and his brother, Gormrim, were 50 years old, their parents proposed they move to Bretonnia, following the example set by their friends who travelled to the Old World to work long ago. The four of them set of on their journey, eager to bring their trade to Bretonnia and looking forward to a change of scene. Though Thorek was fond of their society, his parents, especially his father, had wanted to travel the land for some time.

There journey across the Badlands was quite uneventful. They had little hassle from greenskins or any other foe who would do them wrong. Near Tilea they met with a caravan party of Bretons, heading home after trading with camps along the east border of Tilea. The dwarves joined the men, and spent a number of days in their company.

After journeying briefly round the Border Princes, they began to head through Winters Teeth Pass. It was here that the caravan party turned out to be nothing but bandits. Camping in the foothills of the mountains, Thorek's parents were murdered and Thorek and his brother were tied up and left in the back of the caravan. The Bretons took the armor and clothes of the two dead dwarves, leaving them naked face down in the dirt. As a way to torment the two brothers, they even tied off the father's beard and the mother's hair, cutting each off and keeping them as a souvenir and a means of grief for the brothers.

The caravan took the dwarves across the World's Edge Mountains, avoiding the Silver Road past Karaz-a-Karak. Upon entering the Dark Lands on the other side, they set up camp in the south-west. The dwarves heard their plan to sell them to Chaos Dwarves as slaves. They also discovered that the Bretons had not lived in the Old World for some time, and were part of a tribe of Dark Men living in the Southlands.

That night, while the bandit's sat around a fire and drank the last of the ale pillaged from Thorek's family, the brothers began their escape. Gormrim spent over an hour gnawing at Thorek's bonds, careful of anyone entering the caravan to check on them. It took time and effort but he managed to free his brother. Thorek told him to stay put and began rummaging through the chest, retrieving the rune-engraved medallion of his father and the necklace of his mother. He also retrieved his Axe, which hung from a rope tied to the ceiling, out of reach of a dwarf bound. Thorek pulled down his weapon and beg an to saw through the many ropes around Gormrim's wrists and ankles.

It was then that a man walked opened the door at the back and saw what was happening. Unable to finish what he was doing, Thorek lunged at the man, viciously slicing across his torso, flesh and blood pouring out of his shirt. Thorek's eyes burnt with vengeance and he leaped from the Caravan and began to butcher the bandit's. Seeing this, the driver, already at the reigns, whipped his horses and the caravan leaped forward. Thorek turned and chased, but his legs could not keep up with a horse. His rage doubled and he turned to the last two men, his entire aura aflame with hatred.

After painfully and slowly hacking the bandit's apart, Thorek was left stranded in the Dark Lands, his family captured or dead and everyone else he knew miles away across mountains.

Thorek travelled the Dark Lands for almost a month, searching for the place that his brother had been taken. After a few weeks he found a campsite, out of sheer luck. The camp was run by a group of Chaos Dwarves, who had a small number of Orcs and Goblins under their command. Thorek kept his distance and stayed in the trees, looking for any sign of his brother. When he passed a hut built of wood and mud he saw hid brother.

The limp form of a dwarf hung from a post, the spike atop it running between his shoulder blades and out his neck. Gormrim's head hung, facing the sky, and apart from his hands which were tied behind him and nailed to the post, he hung loose from the wood.

Thorek assumed the Chaos Dwarves had tried to turn Gormrim, but had been unsuccessful. And having an un-taintable dwarf Hammerer in the camp, even as a slave, was something they were not going to risk.

Thorek once again felt rage building within him. He gripped the pole of his axe and charged into the camp. A flurry of steel flashed into the night, rending flesh from bone and slicing heads from shoulders. Thorek's anger pushed him far beyond his ability and he effortlessly made his way through the area, carving what meat stood before him. The Chaos Dwarves had no chance, but after the massacre, Thorek was beyond exhausted. His rage had forced him past his threshold and his body ached with a terrible fury. He collapsed onto the dead orc in front of him and passed out instantly.

When he awoke, he took the body of his brother and buried it, piling the bodies of the orcs and dwarves in front of the grave as an offering of apology. Thorek knew he hadn't failed his brother, he had done all he could, but he still felt guilty.

He made his way to Karaz-a-Karak and after stocking up on food and ale and selling what loot he found in the camp, he made his leave for the Empire to find work and start afresh.

Within the empire Thorek was taken in by two High elves, who designed weapons and oversaw their construction. Thorek smithed for many years and the hospitality shown to him by the Elves was shocking, but appreciated. This gave him a new respect for Elves, and though he was still not fond of their kind, he felt more understanding of their differences and was more willing to accept their friendship.

After many years as a smithy Thorek was rooting through his things when he came across his mother's necklace. Holding it in his hands, he felt all his sadness and anger and stress flow into the ruby, and he was calmed. The necklace had no real magical power, but the bond he shared with his family gave the necklace a subtle power.

He decided to leave the worker's life and find a place where he could battle the forces of destruction and punish evil for the loss of his family. He traveled the Old World for 2 months, searching for a clan or guild he could be a part of. He then came across the Hall of Adrashtai Quasa Shelteth, and approached, hoping for acceptance.

Caedmon Cu Fola

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 09:02:12 CDT

Member: ADAMARE VON LIBERVITZ

Name:Caedmon Cu Fola
Race: High Elf
Homeland: Avelorn

Profession: Wardancer
Weapons: He wields two finely crafted longswords, though he can wield two or one when it is required, his unarmed skills are also quite sufficient to kill another being. His greatest weapon is, truly, himself.
Equipment: Caedmon carries no other equipment.

Age: 736
Gender: Male
Height: 6'4"
Appearance
Like all elves Caedmon is taller than the average human, he has little muscle upon his body but thanks to his skill-at-arms isn’t in need of much brute strength. This fact also explains why almost every muscle on his body stands out like a separate muscle, every part trained to the highest standards of weapon wielding over the years leaving his body extremely toned or ‘ripped’ but not overly muscular as say a body-builder.

Facially as well as bodily he is quite handsome, being of a mature age in Elvish years, compared to most mortal creatures he is the epitome of outward perfection as are most elves or whichever race they belong to whether it be light or dark or neither.

Highly arched brows of fiery-red curve above two orbs of greyish-blue surrounded by a shaggy mane of similarly coloured hair usually put into all sorts of wild styles when in or out of combat. Thin lips only partially crease his otherwise pallid blemish free skin when he smiles and if truth be told makes his angular features look even more alluring.

Clothing wise he usually prefers to keep his blue-dye patterned torso and face uncovered even when in battle, armour just a hindrance to the flowing forms of combat, only the lower half of his body covered in loose-fitting trousers of a mixed earthen brown and forest green.

Personality
There is not a bone of egotism or malice within the body of this person who kills when he must and when not in battle is commonly as silent as the grave. It is not that he is a tortured soul or some such ridiculous thing but only that he believes keeping ones mouth shut before one speaks, giving one time to think carefully about words, is a blessing from Asuryan and Loec. Out of combat, in training for example, he will mostly keep his opinions to himself with a few wise words here and there if needs be. In combat however he turns into somewhat of a beast, using his years of training to deadly effect upon both his enemy and any friends who may get too close. Not entirely there and not entirely not there it is a brave man who steps between him and his prey during what he likes to call ‘the hunt’.

History
Unknown.

Glycoryn Arionor

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Mon, 26 May 2008 08:58:41 CDT

Member:HALJORDAN

Name:Glycoryn Arionor
Race: High Elf
Homeland: Shadowlands

Profession: Shadow Warrior
Weapons: A dark short bow strapped to his back most times. A specially forged long sword made of Nargarythe Steel. It has four elven runes, two one each side, they symbolize names of four elves.
Equipment: Glycoryn carries no other equipment.

Age:425
Gender: Male
Height: 6'3"

Glycoryn is a youthful high elf with wisps of blond hair sometimes sneaking outside his hood. Glycoryn is hooded with a flowing blue cloak, usually wearing a light chain shirt or similar light weight material. He is also covered in dark blue thick cloth mesh beneath it.

Personality
Glycoryn is an honorable Elf, but is prone to storms of vengeance. He is often brought down by regret, dulling his spirit, but he is usually a strong-willed person and fighter.

History
During the civil war two brothers of house Arionor choose opposite sides in the city of Nagarythe. Darkeinir the eldest swore his bow to Malekith, while Laenir the younger swore his blade to the Phoenix King. This divide continued till present with cousins on both sides.

Glycoryn is one of five children. Having received an honor to hunt down one of the dark elves of the shadow war alone, he departed with just his blade. He was not heard of for weeks only until later he was found wounded and not having taken his prey. Some claim his emotions got the better of him since he lacked the discipline of his other brothers. For an unknown reason he was left alive after the encounter and nursed his wounds as his brothers went to finish the job.

His four brothers died on that mission and left Glycoryn the last of the loyalist in house Arionor. As the Phoenix King sailed to aid the humans it was a mixture of shame and injury that kept Glycoryn upon the shores of the old land.

He has forged a new blade and the lingering pain in his right knee is a constant reminder of his failure and shame. As Malekith’s forces arrive Glycoryn sees the chance to avenge his brothers and put his house in the name of honor.

Adrashtai Quasa Shelteth [Paladins against Chaos] is a Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning Guild. AQS is predominantly concerned with text-based RPing [Role-Playing] but (when WAR is released) will be involved in online RPing and RvR [Realm vs Realm] battles.

AQS is Order based, meaning the members are all of good disposition in the Warhammer World. Humans, Dwarves and Elves are the three most common Order races in the Warhammer Fantasy universe, as opposed to the Greenskins [Orcs and Goblins], the Druchii [Dark Elves], and the Chaos, the most common Destruction races.

AQS was originally formed by Wingzero [AKA Shane Henry] but control recently passed over to Yi Kwang Hang [AKA Bobi Lee] due to time managment issues in RL [Real Life].

Ale Across West Wood

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Fri, 09 May 2008 16:47:49 CDT

The sun was falling into the west, a shining band of orange surrounding the horizon. The day was a mere hour from end, and a dull but evident breeze flowed over the guild hall. Darudia wandered out of the stone building and looked over the guild courtyard. A small group of people had already gathered to hear what the High Dreadan had to say. Darudia walked over to them, but was dissappointed at the numbers he saw.

"Ccaine!" The small figure of Ccaine's cloaked form approached him, "Is this all we are to expect?"

"I am afraid the case that may be, but they are willing..." Darudia nodded to him and approached the group.

"I have recently been informed of a group of bandits across the west wood. They plan to attack our guild tomorrow. Pillage our walls and take our spoils. However, they also plan to spend all night drinking, a plan which will bring them to their end. We are to cross the wood and surprise them. Take no prisinors, show no mercy. Who will come? State your names..."

About AQS Rankings

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Thu, 08 May 2008 05:15:42 CDT

OOC, the AQS Ranking system is purely for sake of respect and responsibility. The Founders of the Guild are at all time right and have all the sway over RP direction, alliance with other guilds, etc.

IC however, the hierarchy is taken very seriously indeed. The Hol Founder's word is final on all decisions, though it is unlike the AQS Hol Founder to go against what the guild desires. Important decisions in-story are decided by a court, made up of two members from each ranking division.

[Quoted from Warhammer Alliance]

Structure

The Adrashtai Quasa Shelteth has a strict hierarchy code that is absolute at all times and follows a strong chain of command.

Founders - These people are the foundation of the guild. Without them the guild would quickly fall into disarray. They handle the higher running of the guild and have the final say in any matter that is brought to their attention.

MPGs - Members of the Personal Guard include all members of both companies; the Quarth a Selu Seraless and the Coralenni a Palantiri Utuliens. These are also known as the Selu Sera and the Palan Utu. MPGs are higher in rank than officers, but do not have the same authorities and privileges. Officers are in charge of a particular responsibility, and MPGs are just guards to (primarily) the Founders.

Officers - These people are responsible for the day to day running of the task they have been put in charge of and mostly handle the petty squabbles of guild life. They are mostly seen leading the training groups round the guild hall or leading some expeditions of rookies, to bloody their hands in combat.

Veterans - These are people who have either been with the guild for some time, or have been out on a number of operations and returned to talk of them. Either way these people have earned their place within the guild and such have more freedom in their actions. Each veteran is often put in charge of small squad of rookies. Better privileges, more responsibility.

Rookies - These people are the newest members of the guild and therefore have to prove themselves to the rest of the members. They have the least freedom and many areas of the guild grounds are off limits to them. Rookies have a strict timetable to follow. After a number of weeks they may chose to undertake the entrance exam commonly called the "proving grounds" by the Veterans. It is not uncommon for Rookies to be killed during the exam and therefor any Rookie wishing to take the exam must first get either an officer, or three veterans to approve them to the guild founders. Founders have the authority to enter Rookie’s personally.

[End Quote]

AQS uses a special promotion system known as the Proving Ground. The Proving Ground is an assault course in which Members post an (IC) attempt.

This gives a definite and unchanging (mostly) setting for the member to manipulate into his post. It helps the Founders see where peoples strengths lie, how imaginative they are, how smart they are, and how well-read in both lore and grammar they are.

As Founders we are looking to promote those who have a good understanding of the means of RPing; Interactivity, social connectivity, and wit. And those that choose a more interesting way to complete each part of the fictional course.

THE PROVING GROUND

Only the Member who has been put up for promotion may post in the Proving Grounds. Taking the PG under the invite of another member, or under no invite at all, constitutes a breach of guild law and is greatly frowned upon by Founders, Officers and MPGs.

About AQS

Yi_Kwang_Hang — Thu, 08 May 2008 04:44:00 CDT

These are grave times in which we live. A great and terrible plague, sweeps across our lands; hailing from the North and leaving nought but destruction, and a great strain upon the resolve. The Orcs, even now, form a mighty Waaagh! which will, at any given time, begin it's invasion of the Dwarves. The Dark Elves, shrouded in secrecy, seem to be preparing an unholy wroth to weaken the already-tormented High Elf lands.

Those of Order may walk but two paths. Unite in an effort against the flood of darkness, or bend low to the floor and be twisted by it's malice.

I for one hold a notion of united strength. I shall not wait for the peoples of Order to throw down their petty squabbles upon one another. I call upon the warriors of the three great Order alliances to unite. Under my banner we will fight back against the darkness, and beat the filth of Evil out of our world.

- The words of Cadranmil Goodroot, scripted into stone and hung above our door.

__________
Adrashtai Quasa Shelteth was formed on the 27th March, 2008. We currently have around a dozen members, RPing characters of varied background and ability. Our guild title is Elvish for 'Paladins Against Chaos' and our main aims are RPing and RvR.

In character, our guilds aims are to rid the world of the forces of Destruction. Our guild is set against Chaos, doing all we can to subdue the darkness. Although Chaos are our sworn targets, we see Greenskins and Druchii as great enemies as well, spending as much time and effort into eradicating evil as we can.

Our guild is not currently situated anywhere in particular, but implications suggest we are based in the Empire of the Old World. This is purely conjecture, however, as we have no fixed point of origin for our Guild Halls.
