Brief History
The Pestilentia is a secret society (secret as in no one knows who is in it, or where it is) that has roots in almost every major kingdom. The Pestilentia was created at the dawn of time in Rathnir with the founding of the city of Urnu-Arrak. It has recruited copious amounts of members, many rising to the positions of government officials. Not many know the purpose of this society, but they have been there at the fall and creation of kingdoms and have worked in the shadows, orchestrating assassinations and new governments.

However through my travels and discussions with retired members of The Pestilentia, I have managed to piece together the founding. It was founded in the Kingdom of Yimmu-Audal by 2 men and 2 women. Their real names are unknown as they have been referred to by the group as : Warrior, Prophet, Sage, and Monk. Legends say that they met in a rundown bar in Urnu-Arrak and hadge similar goals and interests. They became nomads and travelers, exploring the continents of Rathnir, recruiting members that fulfilled their requirements. Rathnir had been created for a while now and hundreds of kingdoms occupied the lands of Rathnir, and only now, had The Pestilentia reached full strength.
