The Clans

Harani a'kaheyla de'shanuay.

Long ago, those of Elvenkind felt the need to gather themselves from around Thera and unite into a single people, thus creating the clan of the Oryth'Eldaer.
The Drow had brought about a dreaded war, forcing the Elves to unite against them. However, their cause was not only to fight the Drow hordes which had come from their dark underground homes, but also to preserve their heritage, and to protect and aid all of those of the Light.

Those whom are dedicated to the cause of the Clan, are known throughout Thera by the titles given unto them, and the cause that they serve for the Clan. There is a Patron, or High Chancellor, and a group known as the Triad council, which is made up of one marked by a shield, another by a sword, and the third by a star.

Students will be taken in as long as they are able to make it past the trials that they will face, along with those who wish to enter the Oryth'Eldaer as full members of the blood.

The trials one must face are not easy, for those of the blood must reach true purification in heart, mind, body, and soul. The Clan does not accept those whom are not dedicated enough to test themselves, and gain mastery of those skills and spells that they have been taught within their guilds. Though full mastery is not required, it is encouraged. The battles that are fought must be won, else the Elven race of Thera will be destroyed by their dark skinned cousins of the Clan dr'Rhillzznae.

The purpose of the Clan is three-fold, and will not be allowed to falter. It is to hold back the Drow hordes and keep all Elves safe in any way it can. They are a group of fighters and mages who will keep true to this cause and bring about the end of the pain and suffering inflicted by the Drow.

The Clan also seeks to preserve the heritage of the Elves. Those of the Sylvan race have forgotten much of who they are and the purpose that they serve to all of Thera. The Clan deems themselves worthy to teach, inspire, and give a sense of hope and understanding to all Elves.

The third precept that the Clan serves is to bring aid to those of the light in any way that they can. If attacked by a Dark-elf, they will immediately give aid to those whom were abused in such a manner, so seek out their aid if need be. They also seek to bring about aid by giving those things of a materialistic sense, but even more so, knowledge. The Clan is devoted to understanding and learning, and will freely give that knowledge to those whom ask for it.

If you are of Elven heritage, and wish to know more, or to join the Clan's ranks, seek out those of the clan that are seen visibly in the realms. Send a scroll to the Patron, or members of the Triad for an interview. If none are to be found, seek out one whom is of the Clan. Be strong and steady in your course.
