3 months ago...

Aryr de Morte arrives in Salvar and meets a minotaur by the name of Vroth.
Eventually travels to Fallien, taking part in the battle for Irrakam.

Present day...

Aryr de Morte receives a message from his father, the High Priest. Included in the message are enough funds to buy a manor. The High Priest commands that The Wraith be resurrected and tells Aryr de Morte to establish a position in the continent of Corone.

After traveling to Corone from Fallien, Aryr buys a manor that will serve the purpose of bringing the Wraith back to life. Three days after settling in, a man approaches the building. Wearing the purple and wielding the belongings of a Royal Guardsman. It is Soa J'nu, the companion whom Aryr had been closest to as a soldier. Upon entering, Soa informs Aryr of his new part in the soon-to-be Wraith. As his first soldier, Soa is given the position of Captain.


Aryr renames The Wraith to The Wraeththu, a Eulaean word meaning "specter of the past"

Aryr receives funds from "nobles who would benefit from the cause of the Wraeththu." Their names are unknown but Aryr makes use of the money and builds his own stable next to the manor, no horses are kept yet.

Aryr receives more funds, which seem endless. He uses the money to construct a small and barely functional smithy, capable of only making minor repairs to armor and weapons of average quality.

Using the rest of the funds, Aryr buys 1 horse and enough feed to support it.

Currently Aryr is on the search for warriors. Along the way, he writes to Code of The Wraeththu.




The Code of The Wraeththu:

~No warrior of The Wraeththu shall dishonor another.
~No warrior of The Wraeththu shall steal from his companions nor The Wraeththu in its entirety.
~No warrior of The Wraeththu shall run from battle.
~No warrior of The Wraeththu shall mutiny.
~No warrior of The Wraeththu shall challenge the Commander's orders.
~No warrior of The Wraeththu shall be forgotten.

Requirements to join:

Anyone interested must be trained in the art of combat and be of adequate intelligence.

There will be three tests.

The Test of Faith:
This test varies depending on the mood of the Commander on any given day. It will involve speaking and writing, usually.

The Test of Strength:
This test will involve a short sparring match with the Commander.

The Test of Will:
Each member is required to brand themselves with the symbol of the Wraeththu on their chest, in the center of their left pectoral muscle for men, or on the left shoulder for women. Either a tattoo or actually using a brand (like they use on cows.) will suffice. The Brand of The Wraeththu (http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f219/puffman7/WraeththuBrand.jpg). (Picture is to scale.)

The intentions of the Wraeththu are highly secretive and unknown to even the recruits until they have passed the tests and become a full-fledged member of the order. The Wraeththu will not accept members if they are already part of another organization.

Finances:
The Wraeththu receive money from Eulaean nobles whose names are not known, the amount of money that comes in each cycle of the moon (month) varies depending on the progression The Wraeththu has made in achieving their goals. The more progress they make the more money they get to make improvements to their base of operations.

The base is located far into the countryside of Corone.

Ranking/Hierarchy:

Commander: Aryr de Morte
Captain: Soa J'nu (NPC, do I need to make a profile for him if he battles? Level 0 equivalent.)

No other members so far.

Looks good. Keep in mind that while you may rp that The Wraeththu (how the hell do you pronounce that?! :eek:) gets funds monthly from some secret admirers and supporters, any "official" money (i.e. the kind that would remain in your treasury or with your character) has to be earned in the usual manner.

This PG is approved! Go forth and thrive, because we sorely need more active PGs.
