Throughout Greywater Keep, Erochland, and the surrounding realm, bulletins are pinned on every notice board, and frantic shouts escape crier's mouths; "Death and Destruction!" The once tranquil town of Alsace, once a bustling farm and trade center, has been utterly razed! On the 18th of the Amber Cold, Marshal Richard Luca was accompanied by his guard in a standard patrol of the realm, only to discover the once lively town naught but a ghastly ruin! The expansive fields of wheat have been salted, the town itself but a scorched remnant of itself! One Initiate, Jakob Farwalker, spoke of barricades hastily assembled in the street - eerily abandoned.

For the first time in many years, the flags of humankind robustly wave with a spring in their step; the sons of Horen grow stronger each day!

The Brotherhood of Horen “Come, ye sons of man!” In the long annals of history, Mankind has never fallen so far from the attainment of its righteous mantle as it now has. Robbed of purpose, stricken by the scoundrels of the earth, and bleakly oppressed to the ashes, we who once strode so tall, bestride the earth, now kneel humbly subjugated before the altar of our foes. Throughout our long and storied past, the righteous conquest of our forebears are shattered and disheveled by our current pitied state, and our ancestors look sorely upon us, who have been so meekly stripped of our destiny. It is time for a great shift in fate, for the sons of Man to reclaim their place in the world - together. In the history of Man, never do we stand so resolute and firm in our purpose as when together, united in our cause, and shared brotherhood. In honor of these ancient ideals, the Brotherhood of Horen has risen to embrace once more our proud tradition of strength, presenting to the world the best of Orenia - a guiding light that is not a brotherhood of men, but a brotherhood of Man. Who we are The Brotherhood of Horen was founded in 1534 by Richard Luca, after a revelation following years of reflection and travel throughout the territories of man. Rallying to him from all corners of the realm men of great capability, Luca set forth to reclaim the rightful mantle of humanity, long since lost in the swirling fever of war, plague, and betrayal that spurned Humanity from power, by establishing the Brotherhood. Residing in the province of Erochland, the Brotherhood is operated from Greywater keep (), and holds smaller properties throughout the realm. Service to the Brotherhood of Horen is for life, and those who take up the colors are trained to the pinnacle of fitness and mental preparation to enable them to take on any foe. Men of the Brotherhood are armed, given residence, and fed, and in return pledge themselves and their undying loyalty. Organized into three branches, the Brotherhood accepts men from all walks of life; warriors, scholars, merchants, farmers and more. Through the three branches, the beating heart of man thrives vibrantly, and through unity, the Brotherhood finds its strength. How to join All human men above the age of 16 are permitted to join the Brotherhood of Horen, provided they meet the criteria provided by officers at recruitment centers. Initiates should be prepared to undergo intense physical training, and will undergo extensive efforts to create a welcoming community of brothers within their respective branch. Those who desire to join should present themselves to an officer of the brotherhood at Erochland, which can be reached via the docks.

Members of this branch can expect to expand their combat prowess, take part in frequent skirmishing, and be the public face of the Brotherhood. Initiates who wish to follow the Marshal are issued appropriate gear, and are expected to be present for training exercises and battle. The Branch of the Savant The Branch of the Savant is the scholarly brain behind the Brotherhood, and is made up of Oren’s most successful thinkers and tinkerers. Led by Marius Luca, the branch of the Savant focuses on research, reflection, debate, and discovery. Members of the Savant are expected to devote time towards study and discussion, and make innovative new discoveries to aid their militant brothers in their combative profession. Followers of the Savant should be prepared to uncover ancient relics of human origin, and work closely with their brothers to achieve the Brotherhood’s wider goals. The Branch of the Guildmaster The Branch of the Guildmaster is the economic powerhouse behind the Brotherhood, and functions as the financial basis for the brotherhood’s operations. The Branch of the Guildmaster is currently under joint oversight of both the Savant and Marshal. Members of this branch can expect to work in a skilled trade, establish a business, take part in construction, and in general pursue profitable ventures.
