Factions

The Dragon Slayers Society

The brotherhood Eadric founded in the hills of Albion with Kael, Ysella and Valen. Its oath: to stand as one, to fight the dragons within as well as without, to grow, to transform, and to help others do the same. It has no gate; you join it by crossing something.

The Sigil Knights

Albion's fading order of dragon slayers. Each knight forges his own blade at the Last Hearth and bears the coiled dragon burned into his flesh. Their bastion at Blackthorn Keep fell to betrayal; House Brynmor is their last patron.

The Concordium

The ancient order of slayers whose weapons were forged at the Forge of the Sigil and whose novices endured the Rite of Shadows. It fell to the dragons; Eadric is its last known survivor.

The Silver Circle

Once a knightly order crushed in the Shattered Age, now a blood-pact: cut palms, a circle of light, and strength and pain shared between all who swear it. Sir Ardent Carroway was its last knight; Eadric, Riven, Lyara and Brother Aldain revived its rite against Karnyx.

The Silver Wardens

Stone knights bound by an oath that outlasts death, keeping vigil over the Relic of Unity in the Ashen Spires. They named Drakvar one of their own.

The Verdant Pact

Four champions who drank the Lifetree's essence and bound themselves to Albion's land and to each other: Orlenna, Eadric, Ysador and Rykard.

House Brynmor

The noble house that stood with the Sigil Knights when every other looked away. Lady Morwenna is its voice and its bow.

The Keepers

Nine beings who guard Albion's relics and trials and test whoever seeks them. They grant nothing; they reveal what the seeker already carries.

The Clans of the North

Warriors of the frozen north who follow no one without a blood oath. They knelt when they saw the runes burned into Eadric's arm.

The Dragon Kin

The dragons and their armies under Malakar, the Firstborn of Shadow. They are not born of the void or the gods; they are the shadows of humanity given form.
