Mission:
Forged by sacrifice and tempered by honor, the Sacred Order of the Wyrm
seeks neither fame nor material wealth. Glory for our group shall be
had with each hatchling, and the continued existence of our Scaled Brothers
and Sisters, the dragons of the land.
As
countless organizations exist to protect the Brotherhood of Man throughout
Britannia, so to does the Sacred Order strive to protect the Faithful
dragons of Sosaria, while containing the threat posed by the Exiled
dragons of Destard who have given cause to warrant such an scrutiny.
History:
Well before Lord British ever set foot upon these lands, a great war
erupted between the dragons of our world. Ages of brutal conflict finally
ended as the Wyrms who stirred up such conflict were forced to retreat
beneath the mountainside. These caves soon became their prison as these
Exiles were sealed away by three powerful wards placed by the Faithful
who had originally pushed them underground - thus Destard was born.
At the time, many humans were fearful of dragons - in this respect,
little has changed. A few men, however, isolated from civilization -
hermits, monks, and wandering mages who witnessed the sundering of the
Exiles into what came to be known as the dungeon Destard saw the wisdom
of it. Also, these noble few saw clearly that, as with mankind, some
dragons could be trusted, whilst others could not. It was these men
and women, who, via geas, promises and oaths, swore to watch over Destard,
to do what they must to protect the remaining Faithful, and see to it
that the realm would never be forced to witness such a brutal and destructive
conflict again.
Ages
came and went, and, in time, many forgot of the oaths. Destard was a
place the foolhardy and brash went to make a name for themselves - or,
more often than not, die trying. However, now, more than ever, with
so many Faithful lost defending Britannia against the Atarkan hordes,
it is our duty to protect and assure them a bright, and safe, future.
