Listen closely, young hunters, and hear the tale of the Black Dawn's Rise, as told to me by my mother when I was but a child. In a time long ago, the world was plagued by an unrelenting darkness, an evil that seemed unstoppable. Beasts prowled the land, monsters lurked in the shadows, and demons and dragons ravaged the skies. It was a time of despair, a time when all hope seemed lost. The people of the world lived in fear, for they were powerless against the darkness that threatened to consume them. They prayed to the gods for salvation, but their prayers went unanswered. The darkness grew stronger with each passing day, and it seemed that the world was doomed to eternal night. But then, the Black Dawn rose in the sky, a sign of hope and redemption. The people of the world saw the Black Dawn and knew that they had not been abandoned by the gods. The Black Dawn was a powerful entity, and it sent forth its children, the greatest hunters of the land, to ride forth on horseback and do battle with the evil that threatened to consume the world. These hunters were the bravest and most skilled in the land, but even they were afraid. They knew that they faced terrible odds, for the creatures of darkness were many and their powers were great. The hunters rode out with heavy hearts, knowing that they might not return. But the hunters were not deterred, for they knew that the fate of the world rested on their shoulders. They rode forth with grim determination, facing their fears and steeling themselves for the battles to come. They fought bravely and tirelessly, day and night, never giving up even when it seemed that all was lost. At first, the hunters faced terrible odds, and many of them fell in battle. The darkness seemed overwhelming, and it was easy to lose hope. But the hunters persevered, for they knew that they had no choice but to fight. They battled demons and dragons, outwitted beasts and monsters, and saved countless lives in the process. And so it was that the hunters, with the blessings of the Black Dawn, saved the world from the darkness that threatened to consume it. They were hailed as heroes, and their deeds were remembered for generations to come. Remember this story, young hunters, and never forget the despair that once consumed the world. But also remember that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope. The Black Dawn's Rise reminds us that we can overcome even the greatest of evils, so long as we have the courage and determination to do so.

The Ministry of Contemplation seeks to do what no other group has successfully done before: create a lasting group of scholars, academics and researchers who shall collect, create and discover knowledge for the furthering of intellectual progression of the peoples of Anthos. Due to the diversity of the numerous Departments, there are many possible paths for a member of the Ministry: Staff Savants: The leaders of each department and chief organizers of the guild. -{PS}- Lee Scorsby ((Lee_Scorsby)): Preeminent Savant -{LS}- Tenshar Karkun ((kanrath)): Leading Savant; Savant of Naturalism; Professor -{S}- [X]: Savant of Thaumaturgy -{S}- [X]:Savant of Ingenuity -{S}- [X]: Savant of Narratives -{S}- [X]: Savant of Erudition Deans: Affairs-managers of each department, serving under their respective Savant. -{D}- Charles Napier ((Radahan)): Dean Clinician; Analyst -{D}- [X]: Dean Augurer -{D}- [X]: Dean Contriver -{D}- [X]: Dean Bibliosoph -{D}- [X]: Dean Logician General Staff: Other titled staff of the Ministry. -Zane ((The_Blind_Seer)): Theurgist; Librarian - Edgar Adam Tarus ((IlumTarus)): Maven -Floop Lightforge ((Floopster)): Artisan - Percival Centrella ((Re_addled)): Inventor - Jak ((BubblesandEpic)): Inventor - Pernux ((Treshure)): Professor - Alastair Ravenwood ((SebastianA500)): Analyst - Mason Owynson ((ACanadianCraft)): Analyst - Elandorr Staghorn ((lukejes)): Rhetor - Alitaus Lunas ((valor777)): Phrenal - Amras Yavelti ((Katalion)): Phrenal - Tahjeet Mubdee ((Acornlad)) Phrenal Pupils: - Salazar ((Origin_Lark)) Departments The Department of Narratives represents what is most familiar to the common people when they think of scholars. Narrativists are responsible for caretaking the library of the Ministry, as well as collecting not only literary but also artistic works from the peoples of Anthos to include in the library and the Ministry museum. Cataloger: Upper-tier title Librarian: Lower-tier title The Department of Thaumaturgey focuses on the study and development of arcane magic, as the vast array of magical disciplines makes the arcane an obvious thing worthy of study for the Ministry of Contemplation. This includes documenting the other areas of magic and the study of magical entities and occurances. Thaumaturges push their study of magic to the cutting edge: to meta-magics, the study of magic itself. Theurgist: Upper-tier title Maven: Lower-tier title The Department of Ingenuity encompasses the members of the Ministry who have devoted themselves to the study of constructable things. Knowledge of technical works is also greatly of value to the Ministry: engineering, blacksmithing, redstone circuitry, architecture and so forth. Ingenuists spend their time drawing blueprints for ever more grand designs than the last. Artisan: Upper-tier title Inventor: Lower-tier title The Department of Naturalism studies not the magical world, nor the creations of mortals, but the physical world itself. The relevant areas of interest include the study of plants and animals, medicine, geology and geography. Naturalists often explore the world to collect specimens, organizing expeditions to do so in the more exotic places of Anthos. Professor: Upper-tier title Analyst: Lower-tier title The Department of Erudition claims domain over a crucial part of academia: the study of knowledge itself, and the transference of it to the next generation. The realm of the Erudists is that of logic, mathematics, philosophy and teaching. Often those who teach in other Departments began training as a Rhetor within the Department of Erudition. Rhetor: Upper-tier title Phrenal: Lower-tier title The Common Clauses The Ministry of Contemplation has an intense need for self preservation, and so all members must abide by a strict set of rules, the Common Clauses: The Ministry of Contemplation and its members shall not engage in entangling alliances with extramural forces, people and nations. The Ministry of Contemplation and its members shall not engage in activities that would provoke a violent response from extramural forces, people and nations, and shall not direct acts of aggression against the aforementioned Members of the Ministry must maintain a collaborative work ethic with other members: expressed hatred and vendettas shall not be tolerated. Failure to abide to the Common Clauses shall lead the member in question to be Thrown Back and removed of their status. With the recent founding of the Ministry of Contemplation, Preeminent Savant Ptah Remneal is seeking those qualified to be Librarians, Mavens, Inventors, Analysts and Phrenals (the standard scholarly positions of each department). Noteworthy individuals will be selected to be the leadership of their Departments, the Savants and the general affairs manager below each, the Deans, as well as the 'second tier' scholarly positions right above each standard one. Once the aforementioned has been accomplished, and a site for the construction of the academy itself is completed, Pupils may apply to each Department. Pupils who have been given sufficient instruction and approved by the relevant scholarly members may graduate to the standard scholarly position of their department. With the tragic accident that occurred while conducting experiments with the mind. Lee Scorsby have taken over the role as Preeminent Savant whilst Ptah Remneal remains in a coma. A Great Mind Lost To The Funk The application is as follows ((all must be in-character except the MCname)):
