This silence will end then the trumpets blare, signaling His arrival.

The gates shall open and Judgement shall be cast upon the land.

 

Do you believe you will be worthy?

“His Mission and ours is one and the same:

 

- bring purity to this realm

- save those that are lost from the clutches of death and corruption

 

 

 

Each step along this path to purity, is one closer to be at His side.”

Tasked by the Patron of Purity, Tahariae, the Paragons seek to bring purity to the descendents and the realm.

 

 

To accomplish such, the Paragons utilize the Light, a powerful deific magic, to mend the wounds of many. From cuts in flesh to reattaching limbs, the Light enables the Paragons to truly make miracles a reality.

 

However, their power does not rest there. Utilizing the Light, the Paragon’s are able to combat the forces of darkness and death that attempt to bring ruin to this world. Through holy enchantments and the ability to manifest holy fires, these individuals act as guardians to those that cannot protect themselves.

 

And that is what the Paradon’s mission is: to be a beacon of hope in a world of darkness. To protect those that are unable to protect themselves. To heal those that are victimized and suffering. And to show those that have been blinded by darkness a new path, one illuminated by the Light.

Vailor

 

Following the events of the Dark Congress on Vailor, a schism within the Clerics took place. Those that thought differently from their brethren sought refuge within the city-state of Sutica and established clinics and temples within, founding the Paragons.

 

From this schism, numerous students were acquired as teachers went their separate ways, bolstering the numbers of clerics. This wave of recruitment could not come at a better time as dark forces began to gain ground over Vailor. Shades and Frost Witches poured forth out of the High Elven capital of Haeulun’or, Orcish shamans began to hear whispers of dark spirits that wished to infest the land, and Necromancers around the realm began to create stronger and stronger dark creations.

 

Yet the Light of the Paragons within the city-state remained strong as it was secluded on various islands in the ocean. Shining bright like a lighthouse in the darkest of nights, people flocked to the islands to seek refuge from the infested land of disease and corruption. And they were met with open arms.

Soon, the students had become strong enough to mount a counter-attack to the darkness that had began to swallow Vailor. With combined effort of the Paragons, the Brotherhood of the Golden Lion, and brave civilians, they fought against Orgon, Spirit of Disease, that had betrayed the Orcish shamans that once worshipped him. The land itself turned vile and toxic due to his influence, and those weak-willed became slaves to his power, yet the Light shined brighter than his Darkness that day. Orgon’s Avatar was defeated in the physical world and his influence over those that were corrupted were freed. But the infestation was too deep for the Light to cure, forcing the denizens of Vailor to flee to new lands, the Isles of Axios.

 

Axios

 

Upon reaching new lands, the city-state of Sutica quickly adopted the ideals and beliefs of Tahariae. Determined to never fail the people of this world like their predecessors had, the Paragons utilized the city’s resources and geographical position to secure a hold fast on the Isle of Ceru, creating a sanctuary of purity that many flocked to for protection and to join the cause.

 

While the rest of the world fought amongst themselves over politics and crowns, the Paragons continued building their numbers and connection to their Lord. This did not go unnoticed as numerous dark beings attempted to dismantle the sanctuary. However, their attempts were in vain, as the attention they brought the city and clerics only brought more to rally against them in the fight. With their added numbers, their strength increased dramatically, allowing the Paragons to develop powerful artifacts and uncover magical relics, giving them an advantage in the never ending battle against evil.

As the world began to delve into chaos, the Isle of Ceru was threatened with corruption. Seemingly history attempted to repeat itself; dark casters attempted to infect and taint the land to turn it against the people. Yet, with determination to change fate, many joined the fight alongside the Paragons, forcing the darkness from Ceru and allowing it to heal. Ultimately, due to the heroic actions of all that day, Ceru was the only isle of Axios to not be corrupted and destroyed.

 

Atlas

 

The Paragons spent little time lamenting over their situation as they joined victims of a giant storm that shipwrecked them upon Atlas. Instead, they rallied and constructed a large guarded city, one to protect the innocents from darkness and to spread their beliefs and ideals to all that sought the Light.

Currently, the Paragons are continuing their growth, inside and outside the city. While many have joined, several nations have called upon them for assistance in creating protective barriers and ordering blessed weapons to battle their own demons. They have begun establishing a grand library to catalogue the forces of darkness, empowering everyone with information and strategy on how to defeat such creatures. Along with founding numerous classes that teach mundane healing methods and graduating medics that walk the roads, treating injury and disease where they can.

Paragon Paramount

“The burden of responsibility, a noble sacrifice.”

While the Paragons act as a council to the Order, the Order is led by a single individual. The Paragon Paramount is seen as the voice of reason and fountain of information, having been with the Light for countless years and experienced much within their service. Should the voice of the Paragon Paramount ever be silenced, the council of Paragons will convene and select one among themselves to lead the Order toward the Light.  

 

 

 

 

Paragon

“Duty calls, now and forever. Rise to the challenge and embody what you stand for.”

Purity. Peace. Perfection. The Paragon’s emulate these goals of Tahariae, showing their loyalty to the Light and His mission throughout countless years. The Paragon’s act as the watchful council over the Order, ensuring the members adhere to the decisions and rulings of it and those of the Lord. These individuals are considered the strongest and wisest of the Order, thus shown great respect and looked to for answers to the many challenges and questions that befall those following the Light in a dangerous realm.

 

 

 

 

Elder Cleric

“The torch must be passed, the Light allowed to spread towards the horizon.”

As a cleric expands their knowledge and skill with the Light, they will mature and become closer to Tahariae. When a Clerics has learned all they are capable of and have proven their loyalty to Tahariae, they will receive the title of Elder Cleric. With this title, an individual is allowed to teach other Clerics how to train their skill with the Light and welcome Acolytes into the Light. This is the final stage that most will ever reach within the order, unless they are chosen to become true leaders of the Light.

 

 

 

Cleric

“The Light has chosen you, but now you must learn how to wield it.”

Those chosen by the Light and gifted with its radiance, clerics are individuals that have been granted the Light’s power to mend the wounds of the world and purge the darkness that threatens its purity. Acolytes chosen for connection have proven themselves to be worthy of the Light, loyal to their brethren, and dedicated to Tahariae’s mission. This rank is where clerics will spend most of their time, if not all, as they train to utilize the Light in Tahariae’s name.

 

 

 

 

 

Acolyte of the Light

“The Path of Purity is long, yet your first steps are the most important.

Leave your shadows behind and find redemption within the Light.”

Clericalism is more than simply a magic, but a way of life and understanding. As a Seeker, you will learn these lessons and experience life within the Light’s radiance. However, once you have finished your studies, you must continue to prove yourself worthy of the Light. Educated individuals that are living within the Light and train regularly to dispatch those that give themselves to impurity are titled Acolytes of the Light. These individuals are assistants of the Clerics and guides to the Seekers, working within the temple to further the Light’s mission. Should their efforts be seen as worthy, they will be approached by an Elder Cleric.

 

 

 

Seeker of the Light

“The Light welcomes all to bask in its radiance.”

Seekers of the Light are what the name implies: those that seek to find guidance, solace, and protection within the Light of Tahariae. Once you have begun your trials and you take upon the teachings of Tahariae, you will receive such a title. To become a Seeker of the Light speak to a cleric or higher within the Temple of Lights.

Those interested in discovering the Light and serving Lord Tahariae, Patron of Purity, in His mission can find information and guidance from the Paragons within the walls of the Temple of Lights within Sutica.
