The Chancellor's Hands

History
The Chancellor's Hands was a paramilitary terrorist group composed of Bandits and PvPers. It was founded on January 3rd, 2021, in preparation for the Great Rathnir War by Unic0rnb0i, then Chancellor of Bardonia. The organization was kept secret from other Bardonian citizens, including the senators. The original goal of The Chancellor's Hands was to intercept information heading towards the 2nd Republic's Senate and instead keep it with The Chancellor where he'd use the information to his advantage within The Senate and The Trillium Council.

The Chancellor fled from Bardonia, following the First Coalition War and the failure of the Bardonian Mobilization better known as The Bardonian World Conquest. Abandoning the role of senator, his market, and the land he tried to maintain, he created a new land called 'The_Chancellor'. In this land he built an obsidian tower which he used as an HQ, the land claim was located in southern Viodoxa which at the time was owned by Sørveien, who was a close ally to The Chancellor, though when he arrived no Sovs were found. Unic0rnb0i began declaring wars against the nations who were involved in the Attack on Dorasterrock. He also started recruiting henchmen to assist him in his endeavors and built up the ranks of the Chancellor's Hands. The Hands at this point were a terrorist/bandit group that would often attack and extort cities for money, during this time the only equal force to theirs was BacktotheHub's Mercenary business, because of this the 2 groups often would get into conflicts.

On January 28th, 2021, the nation of Chance was proclaimed as a military dictatorship under the direct rule of The Chancellor and The Chancellor's Hands. The partially recognized nation shares the same flag with the the Chancellor's Hands.Shortly after unic0rnb0i was being put under the care of HimoS401 on February 17th, 2021, the Chancellor's Hands disbanded. On the same day, some former members founded the 'Handy Helpers' organization which offers protection and support to new nations.

On April 26th 2021, the Chancellor's Hands reformed as The Chancellor's Hands once again after Uni and The Chancellor had died during the Ferrymen War on April 20th 2021. The Chancellor's Hands continued to do The Chancellor's will as his voice whispered into the heads of The Hands.

After The Ferrymen were smitten from Rathnir the staff gave a warning to all pvp oriented groups including The Hands. To prevent getting smitten themselves, The Hands changed back to The Handy Helpers on May 5th 2021 where they became a Gardening and Literature club.

On May 28th 2021, the Hands reformed as The Chancellor's Hands as a mercenary group, still being guided by the voice of The Chancellor.

July 27th 2021, the Chancellor is revived by Duke Azael for The Battle of New Dorasterrock and summons The Chancellor's Hands to fight by his side so he can reclaim Bardonia, but The Chancellor's Hands refused his call.

The Chancellor's Hands disband themselves on August 3rd 2021.

On October 11th 2021, The Chancellor's Hands are re-created by The Chancellor into a spy network / Chancellor Worshipping Cult that allows The Chancellor to possess The Chancellor's Hands and further his reach into Rathnir.

The original Chancellor's Hands get back together for one last job on October 18th 2021 to slap Axum, then parted ways.

December 7th 2021, LilyPrism announces a false revival of The Chancellor's Hands which she refers to the as The Ancient Hands. Ano, The Voice of The Chancellor, informs her that The Chancellor's Hands have already been active for months, but is ignored.

February 6th 2022, The Chancellor begins to plot a war against The Ancient Hand's Tavern, but is prevented by The Ancient Hands who pleaded for him to call off the attack. The Chancellor called off the attack in a wave of mercy to his previous henchmen and let them off with a warning to stop tarnishing The Hand's reputation

March 18th 2022 The Chancellor begins recruiting public Hands again.

Known Hands Raids / Operations
These are some of the raids / operations carried out by The Chancellor's Hands before their reform into The Handy Helpers.

The Jamestown Bombing
In response to The Dorasterrock Bombing The Chancellor went after Palaris which was 1 of the 2 groups responsible. The first town that was attacked was Jamestown, which was owned by the person who lead the Dorasterrock Bombing. Palaris citizens were slaughtered rapidly and Jamestown was annihilated into a crater, hardly anything was left after The Chancellor's Hands left.

The Sironia Casino
Midgeape, wanting to settle a score with Sironia, pointed The Chancellor in their direction, mentioning they have a temple in their capital that looks really nice. The Chancellor, arriving at the city, looked through the temple and stated he wanted to take it over and turn it into a casino. Sven of Sironia pleaded with The Chancellor before breaking character and raging at the idea of it. The Chancellor came to an agreement with Sven that a copy of the palace would be built in Chance, but the 2nd palace was never built and before a server wide week of peace Sven declared war on his own cities so The Chancellor couldn't war him. Sven quit the server soon after and Sironia lay mostly abandoned after this incident.

The Destruction of Marleybone
The Chancellor went after Marleybone due to their participation in The Attack on Dorasterrock in the Dandelion Wars. The owner of Marleybone was very compliant and allowed The Chancellor to do his work, so The Chancellor didn't annihilate the city as he did with Jamestown.

The Extortion of Carvay
The Chancellor told Carvay to pay him 100k or he'd attack the city. Instead, Carvay offered BacktotheHub money for protection. The Chancellor offered Hub 100k to not interfere with the upcoming war, which Hub agreed to. After explaining to Carvay that they could pay The Chancellor 100k to get him to leave or they could pay Hub more than 100k to get him to defend Carvay in an attack that then wouldn't happen. Carvay saw the logic and paid the 100k. While this was going on, The Chancellor's Hands were outside of Carvay's Walls taming parrots and building a wooden hut.

The Destruction of the Brittle Isle
The Chancellor tried to extort a user named Kasper01, but failed to intimidate him. In retaliation, The Chancellor declared war on The Brittle Isle and sailed there with The Chancellor's Hands. When they got there Kasper01 was nowhere in sight. While exploring the island ViewedMarquis found an underground entrance, while navigating done a trap was activated which dropped ViewedMarquis with fall damage into a pit of harming potions. The Hands proceeded to announce to each other "He home aloned the island". The Chancellor went to the top of a mermaid statue named The Maiden of the Brittle Isle and found a mocking sign from Kasper01. After the trap and the sign, The Chancellor blew up The Maiden and The Brittle Isle's surface in a fit of untethered rage. He later apologized to Kasper01, admitting he went too far with the damage the Isle sustained.

The Duragrad Remodel
The Chancellor's Hands attacked the capital of Palaris and blew up all the buildings The Chancellor asked them to. This was to "remodel" the capital for when The Chancellor took it over. After blowing up half of the buildings in the city, The Chancellor Hands left, never actually taking the capital due to a conveniently and suddenly scheduled Peace Period across Rathnir.

The Fornost Stand
The Chancellor's Hands sieged and occupied Fornost for an hour. The Hands sat on the walls while the citizens cowered inside. BackToTheHub showed up to try to assist Fornost, but hid inside with the other citizens. At this moment The Hands were proved to be the strongest group in Rathnir.
