Order of the Aurora

The Order was established 300 years ago after the southern incursion. The incursion started with a massive Imperial defeat at the Battle of the Braunfels against hordes of the blighted lead by a demon, Vrizshak. The survivors and fleeing civilians rallied at Gentumar and defeated the hordes. One folk hero who helped rally people was Miri. After this Gentumar was built and the Order of the Aurora was founded in the Nieden.

The main goals of the order is to help those in need and stick up for those who have difficulty defending or supplying themselves. As well as mediating diplomacy from a neutral perspective.

Current Management
The Order of the Aurora survives to this day, run by Grandmaster Aurelian (Canine14) and Captain Robot_girlyman. They are currently fortifying the island of Tessel against anyone who intends to reopen the Pit of Gruh.

Gentumar
The age old fortress of Gentumar stands on a firm foundation on the mountains in central Escharia. The old fortress is managed by Head Cardinal of the Soleanen Church, Ortwin Aurelius (Neogothic) and remains as a sight to all who walk upon the grounds, that the Order is a noble and strong force.

Roles of the Order
Grandmaster: Represents the entire Order as a whole and is the head position of power. The Grandmaster also rules over a sect of the Order, like a Baron and manages local relations with neighbors.

Paladin: Manages Inter-Sect logistics, plans attacks with the Commanders, and is a Sect Commander.

Knight: Organizes patrols, local logistics, etc. A Knight is an experienced Warden, generally a Warden becomes a Veteran through time in the Order

The Secession
On 12/16/2020, the Order of the Aurora, being apart of the Escharian Empire, attempted a secession from the land and to claim Tessel as their own and to form the Kingdom of the Aurora. Shortly after delivering their document to Kaiser SikkeOst, they were soon attacked by ViewedMarquis. The fight was drawn out and many casualties on the side of the Order were accounted for. After being forced off Tessel, the Order moved to the far South-West in an attempt to rebuild and continue their pledge to the world, to protect against Tyranny, Undead, and any/all forces of Evil.

The story of the Order is one of twists and turns. However it is no longer one of a Pride and Strength, it is one of humility and nomads. The Reformation of the Order is coming and the Kingdom of the Aurora will rise up.
