We are the knights of the road. We are the vagabond kings. Where falls a leaf | |||
there falls our footstep. Where is cast a shadow, there we have rested in the | |||
shade. | |||
A Warden is a wanderer, a wayfarer. He is an explorer, a sojourner. Fiercely | |||
proud and loyal to his brothers, he is a member of a fraternal order of | |||
trackers and rangers. Sunken into the northern reaches of the Ithaqua, the | |||
Black Keep houses the scholarship and warrior's skills of the Warden. There | |||
they train in the frozen pines, practicing with glaive and bow, with wood and | |||
tinder, to hone the art of the woodsman. | |||
Magick is forbidden to them, they rely on themselves and on the land, and on | |||
each other. The Ithaqua forest has raised them, and they have seen the fires | |||
of the land scourge their home, set free from magick's mercurial and | |||
unpredictable nature. | |||
The Wardens were founded in modern history by Harker, learning the once | |||
forgotten skills from the Wendigo, spirit of the Ithaqua. The Wendigo called | |||
for aid to the wood, when rifts in the world were freeing demons into the | |||
wilds. The Wardens, once a strong force against such beasts, were needed and | |||
had been lost. Harker heard the call and answered, and bore an ancient weapon | |||
to seal the hellish rifts. Having done so, he was charged with the formation of | |||
the Wardens. | |||
That is what we ward. The world itself. | |||
The Wardens were founded on the 25th day of Halitus, in the year 434 AD. | |||
