Knights of the Raven

The Knights of the Raven have a mysterious background, with only a scant few details known about them within the ranks of the Haelynite Church hierarchy. At the year of Haelyn 1569 HC, the former knight of Haelyn Sir Oeran Morell, Commander of the Knights of the Rose, dedicated in the purging of the Northern lands of Boeruine from all non- human and all not at the line of the Northern Imperial Temple protested against the decision of Church of Haelyn Senate to unify the faith and its doctrines. On Mierlen of Sehnir 1570 HC. The Thane of the Northen Imperial Temple ordered Morell and scores of other Talinien Knight Templars to be simultaneously arrested. The arrest warrant started with the phrase : "God is not pleased. We have enemies of the faith that threaten the unity of the kingdom" The Order of the Rose was charged with numerous offences (including apostasy, heresy, obscene rituals, financial corruption). Many of the accused confessed to these charges under torture. With its leaders gone and the treasuries of the order confiscated, it was not long before the remnants of the Knights that survived the persecution faded into darkness.

After five years of silence and conversion of the separated faiths of Haelyn into the new unified dogma of the One God, a warrior appeared in the lands of Northern Boeruine spreading the word of the Raven. The young man freely spoke of a “darkness” that has befallen upon the lands of Anuire and at that time it was mainly associated with the bleak events of the civil wars and death that raged the region. Not much are known for this mysterious “religious” order , but the church of Haelyn outlawed any doctrine that does not attach to the new dogma of the faith. The order of the Raven has not spread much over the lands of the Northern but still there are some followers of it who are closely hiding from the inquisitions of the Church of the One God, Healyn.
