KNIGHTS OF THE CRIMSON BLADE

HISTORY

Many years ago the Knights of the Crimson Blade were formed under the name the Order of New Dawn to spread and enforce the views of the Valkyrian religion in Asulon under the orders of Kimarai Nastrada, an outcast Dwarf who claimed to be able to hear the voice of the goddess Nyaja. During the time they were led by Kimarai they had formed an alliance with the Twilight Army and fought alongside them in the battle for Salvus after being promised the land in return for helping to remove a corrupt noble from the throne, this promise was not honored though and after a short while Oren laid claim to the land. Due to Oren’s claim on Salvus Kimarai declared that Oren was an enemy to the goddess he claimed to hear and began to start ordering his followers to infiltrate and sabotage Oren in any way possible from framing nobles to starting riots. Before long Kimarai had made a bad name for himself and was hunted by the dwarven legion who eventually captured him and imprisoned him in a cage that hung from a tall tower over the ground below with a single hole in the middle. Kimarai managed to escape this prison barely by jumping down the hole and landing on a small ledge which saved him from certain death, he was taken to safety by Mason who was an Elf he had adopted off the streets of Oren and raised as if he was one of his own dwarf sons. Once in a safe location Kimarai declared that his sons would take over New Dawn and rule it as he once had. Now under the control of Mason, Drakon and Kaskaro, New Dawn took on a different goal which was to build a paradise where all races could live in peace as long as they agreed to follow the Valkyrian religion, this paradise would come to be known as Valkyru. Drakon and Kaskaro realised that funding this paradise was not going to be easy and decided lead the Order like a mafia where they began brewing illegal alcohols, selling narcotics, robbing people and offering ‘protective services’. This didn’t really last long and eventually Mason was sent off to find his real family and take leadership of New Dawn with him. He eventually came across Damien and Siyyl Sezarius who claimed to be the children of an Elf called Nyaja, Mason knew he had heard this name before and realised that these must have been his family and told them of New Dawn, they decided to continue it along side him and eventually found themselves allied with a group called the Vindicators of Solace. Siyyl took it upon herself to join this group of mercenaries and very quickly rose through the ranks until eventually she found herself commanding a large squadron within the group which she used to betray them and claim their land and belongings while leaving nobody alive who did not agree to join New Dawn. Many years passed where New Dawn acted as protectors of the realm and actually formed an alliance with Oren, this is how they came to meet Sirius Fletcher who they recruited and eventually promoted to the rank of Commander of the Order. The 4 of them plus their followers made their way to Fenn where they set up a secret base just outside the walls of the Princedom, they disguised the base as an inn but had a secret tunnel system below that gave them access to Fenn without needing to use the main gates, they had planned to expand the tunnels to spread across the whole world so that they could transport important supplies without being attacked by bandits and also sneak up on criminals without being noticed. This however did not come to be. However they did form an alliance with Fenn and Siyyl found herself as a noble of the Princedom and took the Great Prince Tundrak as her love interest. Not much happened during this time and New Dawn just spent their time building up an armoury and funds while also keeping criminals out of Fenn, eventually though Sirius Fletcher broke the alliance between New Dawn and Fenn and started a war between them. The war ended with Fenn being the victor and only Mason and Siyyl survived. Siyyl chose to remain with Fenn while Mason went off and reformed New Dawn under a new name, the Knights of the Crimson Blade, their purpose was to uphold peace in the world by helping to stop riots, remove corrupt nobles quickly and quietly, track down criminals who were in lands that were not under the authority of the kingdom they committed crimes in and to help fight in wars where the righteous side were outnumbered or lacked properly trained soldiers. The last time they were seen was during the rebellion in Fenn against the current ruling family after Siyyl called upon them for help in order to stop them from losing to the rebels.

Kimarai sat alone in the Silvervein clan hall thinking about what he would do with the 50 years he had left in the world. He knew that up until now he hadn’t lived up to the name he shared with his father and knew he had to do something great before he was finally reunited with him. With his ale in hand he began to reminisce about the adventures he had been on, the battles he had fought in and the many great things he had seen, and that is when he remembered the hammer...

 Legend tells of a great hammer forged by the dwarves of old, this hammer was said to have supernatural abilities that could only mean that it was blessed by the gods. Anyone who wields the hammer will have the strength of the ancient dwarves at their side in battle. This hammer has apparently been seen many times throughout history being wielded by great heroes who with the help of the hammer have won many battles and accomplished great things. Now as is the case with all things in this world things tend to go missing, as the hammer has been handed between so many heroes that it’s whereabouts is unknown, all that can be said is that no living creature has it in their possession.

 The hammer which has come to be known as the Astral Hammer due to it’s supernatural abilities now rests somewhere in the world and it is up to the people who now reside here to find it and control it’s fate.

((I would like the GMs to add this hammer into the game at a location that will not be told to the players and can only be found if people of different races work together and RP properly))

Anymore opinions about me as i would love to hear them, come on surely more people know me and have opinions about me. Good or bad i wanna here them. Please tell me all the opinions :)

I would like permission to have a new race added into the server called the Skraven who are a group of rat-like creatures who were forced underground by followers of the Valkyrian religion and have now chose to reside in the birth place of this religion to spite them. They would be led by me as my character Xivala Sharptooth who would be their Den Mother (They live in small underground villages that they call Dens and the Den Mother lives in the biggest Den and kind of rules over them) They work like spiders in a way where males of the Skraven would try to win the heart of the Den Mother in order to be the father to the next litter of Skraven and then they would be eaten by the Den Mother to feed the many Skrakin that she is now carrying (Children of the Skraven are called Skrakin) When they leave their Dens they are partly blind due to living underground so long and they spend most of their time stealing food to stop the Den Mother from going crazy and murdering all of them and also they spend their time building more Dens so that the current ones don't get overcrowded.

 Female Skraven are the most respected in the Skraven community and tend to be more civilized than the male Skraven who only want to fight and produce offspring. Female Skraven run shops and taverns and look alot less ugly than the males, they also run anything to do with politics due to their more civilized nature and desire to expand rather than destroy all living things.

 Slavery is a big part of Skraven culture, female Skraven will often sell their husbands and Skrakin into slavery rather than look after them themselves, they see it as they have more important things to worry about than looking after uncivilized rats. Slaves will often fight in the pits, join the army or work gathering resources for the Dens.

I haven't really got much backstory to them as i am still working on it and also trying to decide how they fit into Lore and everything.

+1 Gemmy was always a fun player and great to talk to, i still remember our little competition to see who would take over Oren first, fun times :)

meh go for it +1

I thought that the new Trial GMs were picked on the 20th of each month, i was actually worried that i might get picked and wouldn't be here to actually fulfill my duties

I did try my best at the time but i couldn't think of what to say, at least i was honest though and didn't make up my answers

Space i do play Star Craft 2 but i don't have it fully installed yet

So who else is going to be watching the Internationals for DOTA 2 and what team will you be cheering for.

I am going for Na'vi this time as i have seen the way they play and i think they have a shot this time.

Well man it was supposed to be an ARG but it failed due to my bad execution of it, i had everything planned but when it came to putting it in action it fell apart

I expected people to take part because i thought it would improve RP and OOC friendships

Yeah you're right, it is my fault, the point was not to advertise so people didn't have time to prepare for it

iMattyz i never said anybody was dumb, everybody is smart enough to understand this but they just aren't reading it correctly

I realized that after sleeping but by then it was already too late to change it as people had already worked it out

gosh darn it, thought I had something to look toward to.

Sorry but the community were not ready for the game to begin so i had to end it

I just said i was stopping, that is what this post was about

Okay so it appears that at this current moment in time the community of LOTC are not ready to start the game that has been in creation since LOTC began. It would appear that the clues i left for people have not been taken seriously and the post that was made to begin this game is not being read correctly, so it is with great sadness that i end the game now until a time comes when people are ready to actually work for a reward.

 As far as you were all aware i was just rambling like a mad person but that is because you don't understand the way i think. Everything i was saying made total sense and you would have realised that as you progressed through the game.

 It may have been my fault that the game did not work out, or maybe it is your fault but my point remains that you are not yet ready and i must prepare you more for the journey ahead of you.

No it was 6am when i was writing this out and i hadn't slept yet, but i will clear things up for you. Over the next few months i will be making random forum posts that have clues in them and it is up to the people of LOTC to use these clues to progress through the game that i have made for them. If the game turns out to be a success then i will make it last longer. These clues could point to a person or place in the world, a post on the forums or something in the wiki. There will be rewards for people who do good at this but i will not say what the rewards will be.

For your first challenge you must find Jared Halton in Felsen and use the code word Sky Prison

((please refrain from doing trolly stuff like this

((This is nothing trolly, if you read the forum post i made before this it is part of something bigger than just a few clues))

*A response is posted on the notice board next to it*

 

"For your first challenge you must find Jared Halton in Felsen and use the code word Sky Prison."

 

This was a really interesting puzzle. Upon counting the numbers in total, there are a even number of one's and zero's. Seeing that they were even, I decided to seperate this code into segments of two, four, six, and eight respectively. Here, a pattern began to emerge as every eight numbers started with zero, unlike the other cases I tried. Quite interesting. Upon further observation it shows a pattern between the absence of a one and the letter it corresponds to. After looking at it closely, you can see that after the starting zero, it follows it up with a one. The number of ones after the initial zero acts as a signal to the letter. 

 

Now, few segments only had one "1" after the initial zero. It must mean something special. Thinking of a regular sentence, it could only mean a capital letter. After all, the first use of this pattern is at the beginning. Using this hunch for now, I deliberated that segments with two or more "1" in their segments are lowercase letters. 

 

After a bit of head-scratching, I did it! I think. "Sky prison" sounds quite ominous. 

 

T'was fun!

 

-Sincerely

So what you are saying is you ran it through a Binary generator?

((Please use this post in order to let other players know what you have worked out otherwise this will never end))

Your first clue has already been posted, the game has begun and you are still far from the end, this game does have an end but even i do not know when that will be.

A strange note is found hanging on each of the notice boards in the main towns of Vailor.

*You are unable to read this note without help as it appears to be written in a strange code that is unknown to you*
