History The Winterguard was formed out of the remnants of the Sons of the Creator by Andrew Winter. During this time the order prospered, and clashed with the Scourge many times than any other force. They served as the first defense of Anthos against the Scourge, lying right between them and Abresi. Andrew Winter was soon killed in combat, though and was replaced briefly by Vectis Vekon until David Winter finally took leadership. At that time, the kingdom of Herendul was formed, and the Winterguard became the primary military force of the kingdom. Many patrols were sent out to the North, and the Winterguard has a good number of victories over the Scourge. Their fighting style was a cross between rangers (when patrolling the North) and that of a regular knightly order. The Winterguard helped defend Malinor many times as well. That soon ended when Prince David Winter was killed in combat by a Harbinger. Without leadership, the Winterguard disintegrated, ultimately ceasing to exist. After Oren was reunified, the Archduchy of Herendul in need of a new fighting force established the Brotherhood of the Northmen along with George Blackwell, count of Ager-Norfolk. Though it was small, and after the Duchy of Valles were relieved of their vassalship to Herendul, a new military was needed. Harold Winter II and Oliver Blackwell, count of Ager-Norfolk revived the Winterguard. The Brotherhood of the Northmen were assimilated into it, and Oliver Blackwell was given the position as Kommandant.
