Skarvald Character/Story Factions

 

Every story begins with the players, every player has a role... those roles fill needs in a village, town, virtual world. Here are some of the groups that fill the Skarvald world.

Order of Eir: The Healers

 

The order of Eir, acts in the role as caretakers of the well being of life in Skarvald. This means that this guild is perhaps the most closely aligned to the factions, working under strict rules of neutrality to ensure that all the factions have competent healing support. More than this, the guild offers a friendly home and refuge for healers and all players alike.

 

"Heroes come and Heroes go, but one thing always remains the same. Healers have to pick them up along the way."

Circle of Magi: The Mages

 

After Yarick's demise at the hands of his brother, His wife and queen, Ellie used her powers to cleanse the land in fire destroying all the impurities and evil. After the purification. She then healed the land and regrew all which you see today. The forests, plains, even the structures to which the town and castle sit on were erected by her magic. Shortly after the rebuild was completed a school was erected for those with an aptitude for the arcane. The school was then placed magically in the sky so the mages could practice in secret and safety, away from the prying eyes of those that might seek to abuse their power, or judge them poorly for being students or masters of the arts.

Order of the Falcon: The Rangers

 

The nomadic elven people that the Queen is descended from brought this way of protectors to Skarvald in order to better aid the Thanes and people in defense of the land and to watch over and protect. The Rangers also work in areas where a Thane and Warrior would have some difficulty gaining an advantage .Rangers have an affinity for open country and wilderness, but as independent scouts and militia, they are opportunists, not stewards of nature.
