Azuran, The Descendant's Line - Valiant, Tier 2
​

• Show extended worship, with one month OOC since achieving Blessed status.
  • Accmomplished || Start: [11/29/22] - Finished: [12/29/22]
• Describe the two most prominent relevant deeds they've done since their last rank up.
  • Put himself on the line to defend Matthias, fighting against the Demon known as Dayton. In the process of such, he managed to distract long enough to ensure Matthias was not injured further or killed; but lost his arm in the process.[ Event DMed by Solus. ]
  • Developed The Descendant's Line, as a result of his recruitment of Aldren Storp, and push from his wife, Lirio Mal'arn. The Line is designed as a group of like-minded individuals, that seek to represent Valiant's desire to protect the weak and defenseless; to stand in their place, instead. Recruited Aldren Storp into such, as an acolyte and follower; and fellow warrior, to stand beside.
• The character should keep something on them that represents their Divine personally. (Items, Clothing, etc)
  • His wedding ring, Steadfast Love. Dedicated to Valiant, as Lirio's was dedicated to Sallana- showing their bond not only in love and life; but also their mutual respect in their faiths.
• Must create a small shrine to their Divine, and grant it an offering. (Must be an item, check notes at the top of the page.)
  • Shrine created in the fort stationed in Ashstadt, the White Tower. The item is A Warrior's Promise; a ceremonial polearm made in offering to Valiant, and as a promise by Azuran to uphold his duty, until the end.

• Must have at least five instances in their divine log where they have personally done something significant seen favourably by their Divine separate to the event(s) above.
  • *Updated*: Through use of diplomatic skills, talked down Aleksei von Ivanov from burning Amelie Dubois at the stake, turning the girl from a Vyre into a Sunblessed. Instead, Azuran worked to give the girl more choice, even if it was still a difficult one; ensuring she was allowed to become a Gravewalker, much to Aleksei's disappointment. [ https://hollowworld.co.uk/threads/gravewalker-amelie-dubois.55112/ for reference of her Gravewalker status. This one was a while ago, but I forgot.]
  • Defended Astrakhan when its trade festival was attacked by raiders. Fighting against such, he forced three of the raiders to surrender, under sheer threat.
  • Delved into a mine, in order to save the various miners that had gone missing. Fought against a giant spider, managing to cleave the creature itself in half.
  • Took on Anton Ostrowski as a Ward and trainee, to train the man in the ways of strength and combat- to turn a coward into a warrior.
  • Faced off against the Demonic Forces lead by the Demon known as Dayton. Managed to successfully defeat the two demons he faced, sustaining bodily harm in the process- though quickly returned to battle, not backing down in the face of adversity. [Separate to the loss of his arm, though at the same event DMed by Solus]
  • *Updated*: Retrained himself in the ways of combat, in order to fight with the use of his singular arm; including the use of his greatsword. Requiring great strength and a method of building momentum, he has developed the ability to fight and has made use of such through a handful of events thus far, and intends to continue to do so. [Shown in many events done since the event DMed by Solus, in which the character's arm was indeed lost.]
  • *Updated*: Assisted, and directed Matthias along the path of Valiant, cementing the young man's journey from Magecraft, into a path alongside the Divine. While only the beginning, there is hope that Matthias will make a grand Valiant follower. [ https://hollowworld.co.uk/threads/valiant-matthias-unblessed.55535/ as proof of Matthias' unranked profile, and beginning of his Divine journey. ]
  • Fought against a group of sailors upon the dock at Storm's Landing. Fought in a one on one with the largest of the group, inevitably winning in such. Notably, he chose to fight without his weapon, simply using his singular fist. [ Event DMed by AbsentUser and xVigil !]

[Let's try this again; I replaced a few feats that I believed were either more like repeats, or otherwise were just weaker. Those are listed as *Updates*. I can answer any questions that might be needed otherwise, however!]​

Rank up to T2

Howdy, Cho! We think that you have a solid start on T2 here. Creating a cult and gathering inside information on Qlippoth pods and the creation of a cult are both solid. Although, divine has discussed and we think that the knowledge of becoming possessed by a demon is fairly common. It's something that one can find in books or just by hearsay across the realm. For this reason, we're asking for one more act in line with Visage's tenets. As soon as you complete this act, feel free to re-apply!

Azuran, The Descendant's Line - Valiant, Tier 2​

-=][=- ​

After a long but fulfilling day with his family, Azuran mused in a chair, the slight phantom pains in his shoulder reminding him of what he'd lost, and the lessons he'd gained throughout his time under the God of Justice. As he sat there, there was a tingling where his arm once was, connecting with the remaining muscle. Strange, at first, it soon felt as if his arm was there: stronger than ever. He looked down, where the faintest blue outline of a crackling, thunder-like arm could be seen, strong and stalwart. Energy renewed, the father and warrior felt rejuvenated, brimming with determination. Even as the tingling sensation, and image of an arm faded back to normal, he could feel the courage remain within his very form, rising him to Tier Two.​

Divine Log: Mihrnael Alnari (Ignis)

Mihrnael pulls himself free from his long list of projects as the morning rays of the sun begin to trickle through a window. In need of gathering sustenance for himself, he trails out to bask in the light of the new morning. As dawn's first rays touch his skin he feels more than his usual invigoration, but a new energy and purpose washes over him with the dawn. It rests for but a moment before fading, but with it feels new abilities left in its stead. Mihrnael is now T1.​

[X] 02/23 // After a fresh report on the Garulf hunting the forests near the Landing, he would lead a hunting party he had organized to fell the beast once and for all. Tracking the signs of the beast to it's lair, the party would be attack by the Garulf. In the ensuing battle, Erwin would use [Redirect] several times to focus the Garulf's attention on him, granting openings to the other party members. But after a misttime dodged, the Garulf would tear off his right arm. Refusing to be out of the fight, he forces the Garulf's attention on him again. Just before the beast is fell, Sydri would recieve a fatal wound, to which Erwin would take off his Mother's Embrace Scarf to treat her, which he used to tie off his bleeding arm to save her life, at the possible cost of his.

Amelie finds herself pouring over her notes of Mok'yra, the words upon the paper providing a particular frustration this evening. As she looks away from the pages, toward the night sky, she feels a presence tug at her mind. She looks upward toward a half-moon, it's pale light washing gently over the landscape and seeping through the cracks of the ruin that once was the Grand Cathedral of the pantheon. The light seems to drip away from the scene, stars seemingly removed from the sky. All that remains in the half moon. With the darkness comes the sound of bare feet upon the stone, though at a glance it seems nobody is there. Her attention is slowly turned back to her notes before ink begins to scrawl upon the pages, words shifting, notes corrected. As the light slowly begins to return to the scene, Amelie feels a sense of achievement as she rises to T2​

Hey Sneeks, while divine team thinks you have a killer start on your acts. Your two significant acts are great and do a great job showing Laicelem's devotion. Although, when it comes to your significant acts, we think there could be a little bit more diversity. Some of them involve some overlap between characters (two of them involving Keone) and some of them seem to be just casting spells upon people. These things are good things that Laicelem should continue to pursue, but we think the acts should be a bit more diverse and significant to reach tier two. With that being said, divine team is asking for one more significant act to be performed that strays a little further away from the general casting of repose and performing burial rites. Think more toward battling the forces of Skraag, acts more akin to your first prominent deed. Feel free to re-apply whenever he completes one more act.

DIVINE PROFILE: [x]
DIVINE: Theodra
IGN: Wildegroll
RANK: Unranked to T1​

Torbjorn has a solid foundation of faith, but we would like to see independent acts from independent events, and what you have here is mostly how his faith manifests. These are great for the "unique view of faith" for later tiers, but not really very good for notable acts. We would like you to re-review what you have for the last section and reapply when you have new acts.

TIER 2

The hunt and attempted raid on demonic territory are great acts, and the shrine is also sufficient, however we'd like to see some more significant acts for T2 as some of the ones can likely be grouped into one strong act (ex. the crafts, the statue + shrine), and we typically do not count multiple acts from the same event. After evaluation, we would like to see four more significant divine acts.

We are reviewing, standby

Leonhardt took upon squires for the order; expanding their members from 3 to now 9
These new additions include Iuno, Arne and Aeredi all as capable members of the Golden Order. The new squires have begun their training, being given holy symbols to aid in the destruction of undead effigies.
He Has taken to destroying undead effigies in the northern regions around the Ashtadt as well near his new castle's construction area, to keep Order
Having sought out many undead effigies in the past; he has devoted his efforts with his squires to destroying effigies; to weaken Skraag's grasp power where applicable. He has taken to heart persecuting the undead as their living in death is unnatural to order; life and death are parts of the Order of the world. He even allowed his squire to destroy one, to show her what to do.
He Held a mass Baptism in the Lodestar for Synnove.
In addition to taking on squires, two of the new squires,Iuno and Arne, came to Leonhardt with conviction that they wished to be baptized in the name of Ignis Synnove. Leonhardt accepted, baptizing the two for the light. These two who have been baptized are proud members of Ignis Synovve's ranks, hoping to become blessed themselves.
He went to Aleksei's Coronation to support the new Exalt of the faith, finding his former mentor a fit choice for Ignis' will.
Leonhardt may have made some rash decisions in the past, but showing his support for the new Exalt was befitting the situation. Respect was given to his new head of faith; and he partook in asking a few questions about the mage law in search of truth
He is challenging a man who wishes to defend those who worship Lady Arcane.
Though friends, Leonhardt challenged Erwin to a duel on the matters of Lady Arcane; an unnatural false-God. He has taken the Tenet 'Thou shalt bring persecution upon Heresy, to preserve the Order of the world' to heart; as his Ignis has explained through the new Exalt. He intends to destroy his opponent by any means he is able to muster;

[Yeah I I think we qualify there. T1 Achieved Nov 2021]

Describe the two most prominent relevant deeds they've done since their last rank up.

[Leo took his trusted ‘underhand’ (and an unaffiliated couple party) to the site of the shipwreck of ‘The Meridain’ and snatched treasure, as well as a forgotten tale of the sailors who came before] [x]

[Leo and Eliss worked together in an attempt to best a figment once of Jax’s court, ‘Riposte’ or Lowan.] [x]

The character should keep something on them that represents their Divine personally. (Items, Clothing, etc)
[Leo carries a steel dagger pulled from the wreckage of Meridain, with imagery of Jax etched upon it. He also carries a one handed ax forged to resemble a shark.]

Must create a small shrine to their Divine, and grant it an offering. (Must be an item, check notes at the top of the page.)
[Leo keeps a shrine in the form of a well maintained ‘throne’ for Jax, within his treasure Vault. Sacrificed in his name are three golden coins (Icly they’d be on the throne, OOCly they are in the barrel directly in front of the throne)]

Must have at least five instances in their divine log where they have personally done something significant seen favorably by their Divine separate to the event(s) above.

[Leo, alongside Eliss and two others, went on a search for Fluich eggs, coveted for their appearance as a luxury item. They fought through a Large Spider and Vymbat to receive it]
[x]

[Encountering an injured and dying woman, Leo was unable to keep her from succumbing to her wounds to the Vymbat. Instead, as she stated why she’d come to the swamp, to see the majesty of a fluich family, he guided her vision to the creatures, whilst using ‘Illuminate’ to instill in her a sense of calm, reassuring her that her risk had reaped reward and helped her final moments be one of satisfaction and peace.] [x]

[Leo imparts sage words of ‘wisdom’ to a grieving Fita, of his mentality of life, death, and healthy coping from the perspective of a treasure hunter-a discussion of legacy. He also brought her a bottle of booze, because that’s what Jax would want.]

[Alongside a few other fighters, Leo helped defend storms landing from a demonic attack, assisting the front line against the larger commanding force. After felling the demon, he made out like a bandit with the great demons ax, something new to shine in the vault]

[Leo has drafted a few contracts and bets for separate occasions, such as

• Binding Eliss to a bet, where if he fails to ascend to exalt he will owe Leo, but alternatively Leo will owe him if Eliss succeeds.
• A business contract with Veldric, where he will refine and polish the arm from Leo’s collection, in exchange for two favors.
• Betting Eliss’s wedding ring on the events of a coin flip..moments before his vows to Marian [x]
• Also Betting Eliss about the fate of the priest who officiated the wedding [x]

[Playing the role of a fool, Leo’s first introduction to a ‘Lady Iris’ was being requested to find a lost treasure beneath the docks. Whilst the necklace she spoke of was infact not real, and he was instead pushed into the water in what might have been an attempt on his life. Despite this, thanks to a cast of fortune’s company, as well as his keen eye for underwater loot, he was able to surface with an irz fyr band that, yknow, just happened to be there. I’m not kidding.]

Describe the two most prominent relevant deeds they've done since their last rank up.

- During the Grey Band arc, Rezkiaz took up arms with other warriors to mount an assault on the raiders and save the prisoners within. Before taking action Rezkiaz made multiple attempts at diplomacy. trying to convince the men within the fort to surrender peacefully. When it was made clear that no such surrender would be possible, he took to the assault with the group he had arrived with.While no prisoners were found, Rezkiaz took it upon himself to ensure that the people around him stayed safe during the assault and did not perish. As such, he was the last one in his section of the group to leave, taking up the rear to ensure that none attacked from behind as they retreated.
- In a fearsome hunt for a Garulf that was suspected of killing a young woman, Rezkiaz became injured and quickly understood the killing power of the Garulf. During the encounter, he was forced to conquer any semblance of fear within him in order to assist in the assault on the monstrous beast to protect a disguised Branko Callas. With the help of Jerr'co, Yrdl, and Tiek, they were able to fully kill the beast, though the woman they had come in search for was never found.

- Rezkiaz carries the pairing of his gauntlets and his axe with him as a representation of his faith. Both are decorated heavily with themes of storms and lightning to denote their dedication to Valiant's purposes.

Must create a small shrine to their Divine, and grant it an offering. (Must be an item, check notes at the top of the page.)

- Rezkiaz has erected a monument to Valiant and Murkztob on the barren plateaus south of the swamps. Upon the stone altar he places a single, incredibly large canine tooth- that which belongs to the Garulf he helped slay. (X: 59, Y: 81, Z: 1988)

Must have at least five instances in their divine log where they have personally done something significant seen favourably by their Divine separate to the event(s) above.

- While taking brief respite within the Kraken's Den of Storm's Landing, Rezkiaz was forced to take up arms (in this case, a stool) against a group of knights who had begun to assault some of the patrons. He intervened in a multitude of the knights attacks, preventing other patrons of the Den that had fought back against the knights from being overwhelmed. During the fight, Rezkiaz knocked one of the knights to the ground, causing the helmet to cause in and cause injury to the brain. Rather than leaving the man to suffer, Rezkiaz used [Shared Burden], taking it upon himself to protect the knight from pain in his final moments.
- During a Storm's Daily involving a cannibal ship crew, Rezkiaz ensured that his first priority was saving the Dock Union Workers. As tensions rose he tried to place himself between the two groups in an attempt to stop the fighting- until it was revealed that they were shipping human parts. Rezkiaz then sought justice for those dead, knocking out what crew members that he could and taking them to the Landing Guard for judgement.
- Recently Rezkiaz has participated in a summoning of Murkztob, witnessing the raw strength and power belonging to the Earthspawn god. He sought valuable guidance from the god that is one part of Valiant's court, gaining an additional tenet after asking for more purpose in his faith: "Hold all who harm you to account."
- In keeping with his culture's tradition and honorable ways, Rezkiaz has created the clan of R'zvet with Tiek, who has become his sister through a ceremony of blood. This promise was not made lightly- Rezkiaz now treats Tiek as if they had come from the same womb, and hold his word in their now familial relationship.
- During a conversation with Mylohk Danik of the Realmsguard, Rezkiaz shared his exploits with the Garulf. He was invited up to the mountains south of Blackrush, where he was initiated as a member of the Realmsguard (A Valiant cult) and swore oaths to protect the realm and to serve Valiant's will with them. He is now a proud member of the group and looks forward to his future of service.

ROGAL GLADE
Jishrim T1-T2 Application

*Deep within Rogal's Cell, he prays to the Mad God. He prays for strength to bring forth a new age of Madness, an age of corruption. May he receive the blessing.*

(I would prefer my emote in-game if at all possible, if it is too strenuous on the team - forums are fine!)​

Show extended worship, with one month OOC since achieving Blessed status.

​

Yes, was T1 on February 6th. (I am posting this a couple hours before midnight, I am just very tired. Please don't consider until then! Thank you!)​

​

Describe the two most prominent relevant deeds they've done since their last rank up.

[The Fight Against the Night Star]​

​

During the continuation of his fight against Dranoden, the flock of the Night Star has begun to corrupt and destroy shrines that belong to the Mad One. As such, Rogal and his Cult have begun to take back and push forward Jishrim's grasp upon the world. Rogal's goal is to make Dranoden fall under Jishrim's domain, bringing forth the Hellscape too. Forcing him to be a servant evermore to the Mad One.​

​

Below are screenshots of the shrines and areas taken in Jishrim's name through Rogal.​

​

​

​

And finally, the second - this one I couldn't get a screenie of but got Solus' response:​

​

The shrine appears with shattered glasses of various colors of the rainbow scattered across the ground. The dark pillars remain broken but standing, long worn by old cracks. And teal vines curl around them. Foliage of various plants of the Hellscape grow around a circling ring. As Rogal looks away from the eyeball, a chittering laughter crawls across his head before it vanishes.. The offering no longer appearing to be there. ​

​

A mirror is propped at the top of the shrine, poised to face the southward direction. It grows hazy, and a soft, deep tone echoes through it. "Such a .. disappointment." Rogal feels a strange pang across his chest. He feels the gaping loss of pieces of his soul fill him, a pressing memory of what was taken for his atrocity. As he rests on the ground, he feels the breath wind out of him before he's able to breath again. This feeling will remain on his forefront, taunting him. The mirror then cracks, shattering glass onto the floor.​

​

All else seems to look un-tethered and un-disturbed.​

​

[ The Darkened Clutch ]​

Rogal, in his effort to empower and spread Jishrim's grasp - has developed a new darkened cult. The Darkened Clutch. This group focuses around the idea of changing Jishrim's ideologies and perception. Instead of constant killing & destruction, the Clutch believes in holding power and a grasp through control, corruption, and work in the shadows. Bringing forth Madness in a new and more exciting way.​

​

A public thread for this has not been created as I have been bad OOC to make one and also don't want folks getting meta-y to start.​

​

Not only this, but the Rogal has created a "home base" for the Cult, an abandoned hamlet now called "Ophidian's Grove" that shall serve as a sanctuary for all those of the Mad One.​

​

The character should keep something on them that represents their Divine personally. (Items, Clothing, etc)

[ The Serpent's Regalia ]​

​

Dedicated items that serve as part of his "aesthetic" but also his dedication to Jishrim. Each item Masterworked. Each continuing to uphold the fun that can be had with these forms of weapons and dark items.​

​

​

Must create a small shrine to their Divine, and grant it an offering. (Must be an item, check notes at the top of the page.)

Rogal currently holds two locations and shrines. One is located at the Serpent's Den, the Brothel in Storm's Landing. The other is Ophidian's Grove, an entire region dedicated to Jishrim and his work. Hidden from the world, this space is for Jishrim and the followers of the Darkened Clutch. I have attached images as well as coordinates.​

​

Ophidian's Grove (Coordinates 195, 43, -6015)​

​

​

​

The Serpent's Den (5148, 43, 959)​

​

​

​

In terms of items, Rogal is dedicating three items to the shrines.​

​

[ Drapax Corpse ] A Drapax Corpse that was killed during a fight with the Hellscape Demons. Rogal believes this to be an offering that may further the grasp of Jishrim into the Hellscape.​

[ Melarue's Eyeball ] An Eyeball of Melarue, the lover of Dranoden. May it be of use to the Mad God.​

[ Melarue's Sword ] A sword that Melarue wielded before Rogal took her hand and eye. Another marker of hopes that Jishrim can do nefarious deeds with it.​

Must have at least five instances in their divine log where they have personally done something significant seen favourably by their Divine separate to the event(s) above.

[ A Peace Offering ]​

​

When Melarue attempted to offer peace against Rogal and her, in the fight that never ends against the Night Star, Rogal felt this was a sign of weakness. A cop out. He led Melarue along, stringing forth the agreement until a time that their hands met - and then he took her hand for such weakness. He also took her eye as justice for when his was taken by Dayton and her. An eye for an eye.​

​

​

​

[ The Grey Lady's Liege ]​

​

Rogal and Laicelem have formed a rivalry unlike any other. In fact, so much so, that Rogal has waged war against the Grey Lady to further the Madness around the realm. Laicelem felt anger towards Rogal's recent actions, and took to vigilantism to solve them. Two specific instances arose in which Rogal felt he had no choice but to fight back.​

​

Once in the Undertavern, when Laicelem came to take Rogal to prison for his "deeds." This resulted in an all out Madness between around ~10 people, fighting and chaos ensuing thanks to Rogal. Melarue lost some blood, Veldric lost a /lot/ of blood, and Laicelem died. All in all, the first battle that brought forth the inklings of chaos in the Landing.​

​

The second was a night in the Kraken's Den, in which Rogal and his family was peacefully drinking to themselves. Laicelem once more approached and said that the moment Rogal stepped out of the tavern, he would be taken prisoner and brought forth to the Council. Rogal played his little tricks, and eventually cast [Madness I] on the Tavern in its entirety, running for his dear life with Sydri accompanying. Laicelem did not quite take this kindly, and tried to shoot down Rogal which only resulted in him shooting /Sydri/ instead. This led to the tavern-goers stopping Laicelem before anyone else got hurt, and fights and bickering breaking out. The chaos continued in the Landing. Rogal even posted a bounty in the Landing to stir the chaos even further after the events, found [HERE]​

​

The last was a removal of the tongue from Laicelem. After Rogal continued to spit upon the Grey Lady and push Jishrim's values, Laicelem took Rogal's tongue and cut it clean off. For now he can speak no more madness but gutteral noises.​

​

[ The Tainted Librarian ]​

​

Elthea, a dear fried of Melarue, confronted Rogal in the Kraken's Den one evening because of his fight against the Night Star and his flock, specifically Melarue. She began to spat several insults and accusations towards him, riling quite the crowd. It led to a cup of wine being thrown on Rogal by a mage, Lysander. Rogal countered that Melarue was a member of the Demon-folk, as was her son, and should be the one's on trial - not him. After a bit of [Madness I] being cast, Rogal slipped out the back and traced down Elthea. He took two of her fingers for such disgusting words being thrown in the Tavern. ​

​

[ The Corrupted Councilman ]​

​

Eliss Cuttingthorne wished for a meeting with Rogal, to discuss the bounty upon Laicelem's head. Through Rogal's innate need to control and corrupt, he politically created a plan with Eliss to frame Laicelem for murder and more - planting a dismembered hand with Laicelem's arrow in it in the road in which Eliss would find it, and a helpful sum of 10,000 radiants for the Councilmembers cooperation.​

​

Several days passed, and nothing came from Rogal's efforts. Eliss was weak in his offerings, and did not keep his agreement. A new meeting was called between the two, in which Rogal accused him of being weak. Of betraying Jax and his tenants. To break a deal, a vow.. tsk tsk. Eliss continued to push off the argument until there was no further collaboration of the two. Rogal threatened that if he did not get the hand and money back, he would tell the Council of Eliss' work.​

​

With no return, Rogal sent a letter to all active sitting Councilmembers on Eliss' deeds, and began posting these posters around the landing [HERE]​

​

​

[ The Burning at Night ]​

​

At the stroke of midnight in the Landing, Rogal had the bells toll - signaling something occurring in the Festival Grounds. A large, extremely large, group of citizens came to the area. Rogal created a stake in which he would be burned upon, calling forth the citizens to make a decision. For tonight, they would be the judge, the jury, and the executioner. Would Rogal walk away free? Would he burn at the stake? Would he be imprisoned, simply? This ruse created to stir forth an idea that Rogal holds deep to him: that Morality is simply something we use to define what we think is right and wrong, even if it isn't.​

​

In this primal state, a moment in which a group can decide the fate of a man, what would they choose? They chose chaos. Rogal summoned Laicelem to make a decision, and all hell broke loose.​

​

Through Rogal's taunts, Melarue fired the first shot. Then another happened, and another. Fights between everyone broke out - people shooting people, vigilantism taking hold. Not even the lone guard could stop the Madness that had begun. Rogal was proud, and found that his faith was right - people are weak to their bare instincts. All it takes is a small nudge.​

​

Through hours of fighting and pushing forward, driving people to the edge; Rogal was imprisoned. Wounded ever so, he was tended to. He now waits in a prison, for his trial by combat.​

​

​

​

[ Nightmares for all ]​

​

Rogal set forth nightmares unto Melarue, Elthea, and an attempted one at Laicelem (Grey Lady Girls Don't Sleep.)​

​

Listed below are the descriptions of the nightmares:​

​

[ Elthea ] The Grand Archives in which she so loves burns around her, with Melarue and the child trapped inside. She cannot get in, she cannot help. She must watch it burn to the ground. A lilac eye peers over all.​

​

[ Melarue ] Flashes of destruction of all that Melarue has built for Dranoden. Chittering and endless laughter echoes over it - with a deep lilac eye seemingly following the destruction within the sky. At the end of each dream, she finds herself watching as the Archives burn, held back by the blue hands that she works for - and what is left in the dust is the skeletons of all she cares for.​

 

[TagTeamChampion]

TIER THREE - VALIANT

NAME: Mylohk Danik
IGN: PurpleKnoife
CHARACTER PROFILE: [X]
DIVINE PROFILE: [X]

Show extended worship, with two months OOC since achieving T2.
- May 21st, 2022 was when Mylohk's T2 was achieved.
Describe the three most prominent relevant deeds they've done since their last rank up.

1 - Earthen Womb: Mylohk led the plea to Valiant to return the Earthspawn, offering the sword of a Nether Fiend, an Earkstone shield of his own craft, and a scroll recovered from the Nether which detailed the creation of “Slaves from the Earth''; all in the hopes that it would be enough to return the race to Altera. A heartfelt plea to Valiant and his court was given; and Mylohk was answered, three bolts of lightning crashing to the ground, from which three reborn Earthspawn crawled from; the first of many more to come. [War] [Hold True to Thy Given Word] [Do not betray thy companions, people or traditions]​

​

2 - Daol Iz’Wak; Dog of War and the Roster of Names: Since the return of the Eark, Mylohk has maintained a written record of the Earthspawn; those who came before him, and those he has been present to welcome back to Altera from Gwamith. The record takes the form of inscriptions upon his own Holy Symbol; the names of the Earthspawn written upon the Blooded Silver surface of the Hound’s head. The Holy Symbol has great personal significance to Mylohk, both for the faith that it represents for him, aswell as the weight of the task he has set for himself. To date, the following names are recorded upon the Daol Iz’Wak;​

Dera Qurk’qa Kam Hakiaz: High Queen of the Eark​

Xo Izhmoz Hakiaz: Prince of the Eark. Deceased​

Xo Yrdl Hakiaz: Prince of the Eark, Shaman​

Pohk’Urz Danik: Pitborn​

Nadiez: Pitborn​

Tiek R’zvet: Pitborn​

Ko Azgir Hakiaz; King of the Eark​

Bor: Pitborn​

Jerr’co Hakiaz; Prince of the Eark​

Rezkiaz R’zvet; Pitborn​

Ogon’rk: Pitborn​

[War] [Hold True to Thy Given Word] [Do not betray thy companions, people or traditions]​

​

3 - The Cerulean Blitz; The Hills of Eisenheim: Mylohk stood with a collection of his fellow Realmsguard and a small contingent of Rangers, among others to defend Eisenheim from the Ivory King’s forces. Mylohk personally slew one Viand, and helped take down an Underlin, knocking it prone with his artifact shield, bolstered with [Reinforce], before striking it in the back of the head with his warpick, to allow Fania to cut out its throat. The head was removed after the battle and taken as a trophy, left in the Eldpoint Cathedral by the Valiant Shrine as an offering. [War] [Defense] [Conflict] [Courage]​

The character must have earnest and genuine faith to their Divine.
Mylohk embodies the tenets of Valiant. Every morning, he prays to Valiant before he trains. He has personally taught two other Blessed of Valiant (Rezkiaz and Andrew D'Amryun), as well as turning two individuals toward the worship of Valiant (Rezkiaz again, as well as Nadiez). He wears a Holy Symbol of Valiant around his neck, and nearly always wears Valiant's colours in his day to day life.

Evidence of a more unique understanding and outlook towards their own faith.
Mylohk's understanding of Valiant and his Court is one that many have scratched their heads over. Mylohk believes that Valiant is both a god in his own right, aswell as the sum of his parts of the other gods of war; the Court of Conflict. Thus, to Mylohk, Valiant IS Murkztob, while at the same time Murkztob can exist as a separate entity; the same could be said for any in the War Council. Those who sit upon the Court of Conflict imprint upon Valiant, and make the Descendant who he is.

Most he has spoken to regarding this have either been very confused by his interpretation (most of the Earthspawn). This doesn't bother Mylohk, as at the end of the day, the way he worships his god is personal to him; it gives him strength, it gives him meaning. No one can take that away from him.

Must show evidence in their log of teaching another something thematic to their Divine. (Hunting, Fighting, Dancing, etc)
Referenced later under [To Guide Another], but Mylohk has taught Andrew various unarmed combat techniques; mainly for the purposes of escaping a hold.

Must have at least five instances in their divine log where they have personally done something significant in the name of their faith separate to the event(s) above.

1 - Anwar confides in Mylohk regarding the recent stalking he has been subject to. Mylohk brings him to Raelur Fen’Shal, a Councillor of Storms Landing and fellow Realmsguard for advice. He advises Anwar to relocate temporarily, to which Mylohk offers to act as Anwar’s bodyguard for the duration of his stay, so that he may feel more at ease. Mylohk lives with Anwar at the Gardens of Endearment for a number of weeks. While there, he helps Anwar and his partner Raenyr investigate evidence of burned corpses located nearby to the gardens. [Defense] [Justice]​

2 - Oathsworn and Respite: Oversaw Yelena’s swearing of the Realmsguard Oath, officially bringing her into the organization. Then set up a Bonfire of the Valiant in the Eldpoint Cathedral, in front of the Valiant Shrine. Significant as Yelena initially approached Mylohk regarding rumours of the Realmsguard, and he had initially invited her along to one of their meetings. Despite their differences in faith, they fight together for the good of the Realm. [Defense] [Honour] [Storms]​

3 - Sparring and other acts of combat:​

Trefor: resisted his spell cast, before grabbing him and throwing the man over his shoulder into the dirt.​

Raelur Fen'Shal: Disarmed him of his greatsword, before forcing the man to yield in an attempted clinch.​

Captain Zelphar: Mylohk was forced to yield after being swept off his feet by her halberd, but not before breaking her nose with a mailed fist.​

Andrew D’Amryun: a collection of lessons involving Andrew training to fight against a much larger and more physically gifted combatant (Mylohk in this instance).​

Ogon’rk: in a state of post-spawning delirium, Ogon’rk attacked Mylohk as he emerged from the pit. Mylohk was able to bring the titanic Earthspawn to the ground; not through brute strength, but through tactics and martial ability. Ogon’rk returned to his senses after Mylohk dislocated his elbow, after the Earthspawn refused to yield.​

Rezkiaz: Sparring with his student, Mylohk brought Rezkiaz to a knee, before launching his own knee into his chin. After Rezkiaz picked himself up, he struck Mylohk in the face with his shield, shattering his nose. Mylohk once more brought Rezkiaz to the ground, fending off his attempts at throwing the Halfspawn off of him, before breaking Rezkiaz’s elbow in an armbar. [Conflict]​

4 - Aethellian Defense; Part One: Kill count; 1 cultist, 2 Underlins. Led the Realmsguard contingent into Verdant Valley, aiming to extract as many Civilians as they possibly could; saving nine out of twelve total. Mylohk kept the Underlins focused on him so that his companions could slay them or rescue civilians in the area. When Trefor died under the effects of Raelur’s Death Ward, Mylohk recovered his equipment and then met him in the Eldpoint Cathedral later that night. [Conflict] [War] [Defense] [Courage]​

5 - Aethellian Defense; Part Two: Kill count; 2 turncoats, 2 shield demons, 1 archer demon. Mylohk had initially stationed himself up with one of the ballistae crews on the defensive line’s ramparts, directing their fire toward the army of incoming demons. When it became apparent that some of the guardsmen were actually demonic cultists themselves, Mylohk descended upon the traitors with fury. He gave the order to his ballistae crew to fall back from their tower and man the trebuchet; an act which ended up saving their lives, as the tower was soon destroyed by a raging fireball from the Twin Generals. Overall, the battle ended with a costly win for Eldpoint; both Raelur Fen’Shal and Lana Wake died during the battle; while Lana was guarded by Raelur’s Death Ward, Raelur passed on, leaving a tragic, permanent reminder for the Realmsguard; war is hell. [Conflict] [War] [Defense] [Courage]​

6 - Aethelian Defense; Part Three: Kill count; 2 Underlins, 2 Imps, 1 Lamentior, 1 Consumed Abysmal. Fought to reclaim Verdant Valley with a group of the Realmsguard. The death of Raelur had affected them all greatly, so they descended upon the town with seething anger beneath their calm but also tired exteriors. They gave no quarter to the demons, and before long had either cleared the town of the stragglers, or sent them fleeing from the lands of Aethel Deira. Highlights would be Mylohk goomba stomping an Underlin; he broke his ankle doing it, but the Underlin’s skull fared much worse. He has regaled a number of his friends and peers with the tale now. [Conflict] [War] [Defense] [Courage]​

7 - The Fires of Battle; killed 1 Fat Viand, intercepted an arrow meant for Storm. Stabilized his fatal injury with Healing Salve III, bringing him back to the Medics for attention in lieu of accruing Glory; the lives of his companions more important than his ego. Was eventually dismissed by the healer’s, returning to the conflict. He was part of the final push to the portal, and helped to slay the General. [Conflict] [War] [Defense]​

8 - In Defense of the Landing, Part 2; Killed 1 Cultist, put another to sleep to be taken as a prisoner. Blocked an arrow meant for Joseph Seeker, and drew the attention of a 13ft tall Yiorza demon with the aid of [Redirect], taking a mighty blow from the demon as he distracted the demon for the others to fell. [Conflict] [War] [Defense] [Courage]​

9- A Chance to Learn: With the help of his companions, Mylohk helped in slaying two Tremorback Devils; the first, whose head he wrenched back with his warpick, before driving his dagger deep into its eye socket, allowing his companions to attack its exposed underside. The second, he prepared for its charge with his Artifact Shield imbued with [Reinforce]; bouncing the creature away from him as Storm cut into its flank with his poleaxe. Despite a desperate attempt to defend itself, Mylohk bested the creature with a blow to its temple, cracking its skull from the force of his strike. [Conflict] [Defense] [Courage]​

[To Guide Another]
Ultimately they must guide another into the rank of T1 and showcase at least ten ways they assisted doing so. This can be through lessons, discussions, or other ways you feel are significant in the journey of the student. They must reach T1 before you can apply for T3.

Mylohk has guided two individuals into a Valiant Blessing; Andrew D'Amryun, who is T2 currently, aswell as Rezkiaz R'zvet, who is T1. I'll include lessons for both, though Rezkiaz has the full ten.

ANDREW D'AMRYUN

1. Arm Wrestling: Mylohk taught Andrew various Arm Wrestling techniques in order for Andrew to stand a chance at holding his own against much larger and likely stronger opponents, all for the ultimate goal of one day beating Avalyn.​

2. Unarmed Combat / Grappling: With Mylohk being quite proficient in Grappling, he teaches Andrew ways to escape and avoid getting into grapples, clinches and holds.​

3. “Strength isn’t Everything.”: A culmination of showing Andrew various practical examples of instances where proper use of a technique can be used to gain the upper​

REZKIAZ R'ZVET (someone move my boy out of unranked plz)

1 - Mylohk watched Rezkiaz's rising from the ground, referencing Valiant at his “birth” and sparking Rez's interest in both Valiant and his connection to Murkztob​

2 - Rezkiaz went to Mylohk's house to ask questions about Valiant, Mylohk explained the war council, or the “Court of Conflict”. This was accompanied by an explanation of Mylohk’s interpretation of Valiant and how the other members of the War Council imprint upon him.​

3- Rezkiaz returns again, looking for information about Valiant's group, the Realmsguard. Mylohk explains the group and their importance to Valiant; what they have pledged to do, and what they have done thus far. He goes into detail regarding the way they operate, and their own tenets.​

4 - Mylohk happens upon Rezkiaz giving his offering to Valiant at Blackrush, reinforcing the action and providing encouragement for the Earthspawn, who worried if the offering would be worthy enough.​

5 - Mylohk explains the concept of Valiant's Angels to Rezkiaz, or at least his interpretation of the Angels. Rezkiaz is pretty confused overall, but Mylohk does take the time to at least present the information in a relatively easy to digest manner​

6 - Hold True to Thy Given Word; Mylohk explains the tenet to Rezkiaz, citing his interpretation which involves forgoing deception and lying in its entirety.​

7 - Fester not thy body to disrepair; Mylohk explains the tenet to Rezkiaz, going into detail not just about training oneself for war, but also not gorging oneself on vices, such as food or alcohol.​

8 - Do not abandon diplomacy out of lust for war; Mylohk explains the tenet to Rezkiaz, citing the cautionary tales of those who had fallen to Kilrox’s bloodlust, including one who was once a friend of Mylohk’s; Erwin.​

9- Defend those that cannot defend themselves; Mylohk explains the tenet to Rezkiaz, speaking at length of his own examples of the time Mylohk had forgone glory in battle to ensure that those who were incapable or otherwise incapacitated would not have harm befall them. He was pleased to hear from Rezkiaz that he had already begun to embody this tenet wholeheartedly; telling Mylohk of the time he saved a woman from being attacked by a Greyling Vyre.​

10 - Do not betray thy companions, people, or traditions; Mylohk explains this tent to Rezkiaz; particularly significant to both of them, as they both hold the ways of the Earthspawn very near and dear to their hearts. This one needed little explanation to Rezkiaz.​

11 - Tremble not upon the field of battle, but always remember the better part of valor; Mylohk explained this tenet to Rezkiaz, aswell as explaining what Valor was to Rezkiaz, as he was unfamiliar with the concept.​

I hate formatting. Let me know if its so terrible its unreadable

If successful, forum emote is fine. Please and thanks

[Somnastra]

Valiant - Tier 2	Erwin Eindridi
Show extended worship, with one month OOC since achieving Blessed status.	Approved to T1 on Jan. 8th.

Hey Scroll! While the divine team thinks that you have a great start on your acts, we have a few hiccups that we'd like you to clear before Erwin can reach the next tier. First, we like to consider most aspects of an act that come from one event as one whole act. For example, you split your garulf hunt/recovery/pelt offering into three separate acts where we view this as one experience. While in some circumstances we may find it appropriate to split up an event into separate acts, we feel as if these could be placed together. Alongside this, we feel as if discussions have a hard time being placed in a rankup beyond tier 1. If Erwin had made a great habit of this and displayed many instances of him explaining his faith, *this* could be counted as an act. But one instance we feel is not enough for a tier 2 act.

That being said, divine team is asking that you perform one more act aligning with Valiant's tenets before reapplying. As soon as you finish an act, feel free to reapply.

Request to rank up from unblessed to blessed in Sallana's name.

During an evening at the site of Heartlake Manor a gentle breeze would pick up around Kazu. The floating seeds of dandelions drifting into his view, guiding his eyes to the setting sun atop a canvas of pink and orange hues. It's almost picturesque nature relaxes the young man as he feels a sense of acknowledgement from something beyond it.

- Kazu is now T1 -
​

TIER TWO
IGNIS

Hey Crusader, while the majority of the application looks good there are a few issues that we see primarily around acts required. We feel that the first relevant deed of shrine construction overlaps too heavily with the other requirement for T2 rankup, alongside a few of the others, particularly watching the coronation of the exalt falling a bit behind what would be required for a rankup. We encourage a few more acts and a replacement for the major deed, and to not limit yourself to purely five acts in the rankup. Once there are a few more under Leonhardts belt, he should be good for his next rank!

TIER TWO
JAX

Hey Tidal! What you sent was a good start, but we'd like to see at least one more significant action towards his faith. Once you've completed this, please reapply and we'll get to it as soon as possible. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to make a ticket or reach out.

Jishrim T1-T2 Application​

-=][=-

One night Rogal finds within the shadows a-chittering. He would go to inspect, only to find his feet stuck in place. As he glances down, he feels a pang in his neck. Once his gaze goes to
meet whatever it was, but nothing is there. The light of torches become much more bright and colorful, and he feels a giddy sort of pride upon his work so far. He cannot help but laugh and
giggle in euphoria to the thoughts of his deeds. He falls into a fugue of hallucinations that multiple sets of red eyes watch him from the shadows, chittering him to sleep like a lullaby. Upon
waking up he feels stronger in faith, and a reward perhaps waiting for him.

Rogal is now Tier 2. ​

TagTeamChampion Sergeant Freedom The team is still conferring on yours, but we should have a response soon.
