==Intro==
+
==History==
 +
===Origins===
 +
Reven came into existence from the remnants of the [[Vordul Sanguinis|Sanguine Empire]] near the dawn of the Age of Shadows. With the Death of the Sanguine Emperor [[Silverblade_Family/Xlair|Xlair Silverblade]] in the Siege of Wudenkin that marked the end of the [[Melhed/History/Age of Shadow/Summary/Pilgrimage War|Pilgrimage War]] the Sanguine Empire fell apart. From the remnants the kingdom of Reven came to be.
  
A Heavy RP Lawful Evil Empire, focused on role play and status gained through the Blood Oath and Favor with the Disciples and Emperor. We look to bring continent wide role play through regional RP and inclusion of Nobles & Adventurers regardless of their patron realm.

===The Seventh Age of Beluaterra===
 +
====The Theocracy of Reven====
 +
At the dawn of the [[Melhed/Agyrian Acedemy/Terriad/Age of Shadow/Timeline|Age of Shadows]], also known as the Seventh age of Beluaterra, the new Saints of Revenon church transformed the land that had been [[Vordul Sanguinis|The Sanguine Empire]] into the Theocracy of Reven. The Theocracy of Reven was focused largely upon the worship of Saints, namely the chief saint of Revenon. This Theocracy was fairly short lived and few records exist of its [[Saints of Reven|Core beliefs and tenants]] survive.
  
==Diplomacy==
+
The Theocracy of Reven was most known for the many conflicts it found itself embroiled in throughout its existence. These included:
 +
*The First war with the Vale: The [[Shattered Vales|Shattered Vale]], seeking a new home in the North sook to claim Wudenkin as a forward capital. This war failed and the Shattered Vale agreed to a cease fire. They would shortly after employ a magical portal to move their population to the North of Reven.
 +
*The War for Tor: A war fought between the Theocracy of Reven and the [[Irondale|Republic of Irondale]] for control of the region of Tor. The Theocracy lost this war and Tor was claimed by the Republic of Irondale in perpetuity.
 +
*The Thalmarkin Conflict: A briefly declared war between the [[Thalmarkin|Theocracy of Thalmarkin]] and the Theocracy of Reven due to the incursion of one Vidkunn Thane into Thalmarkin lands. This conflict was resolved through diplomacy without any major confrontations.
 +
*The Second war with the Vale: A border and political conflict once again between the Theocracy and the [[Shattered Vales|Shattered Vale]], prompted by a perceived insult levied by the priestess of Revenon Thuraya Montgomery. The Theocracy of Reven lost this was and surrendered claims to regions North of Ircymbar and Junohep.

====The Republic of Reven====
 +
Shortly after the loss of the Second War with the Vale the religion of Revenon that made up the core of the Theocracy began to fall apart. With the kingdom's identity in crisis the reins of government were given to Diorto Winmon, who restructured the realm into a Republic. The founding and initial years of the Republic were marked by a search for a sense of cultural identity within Reven, and various leaders and nobles all attempted to contribute in various ways. The capital of the realm moved briefly from [[Vozzessdor]] to [[Wudenkin]], then back again. There was a brief period in which culture shifted toward an imperialistic model of a core republic, then a shift toward a darker and more depraved identity that harkened to it's [[Vordul Sanguinis|founding roots]].

He wears his long thick raven black hair down, where it reaches to the middle of his back.

History

Origins

Reven came into existence from the remnants of the Sanguine Empire near the dawn of the Age of Shadows. With the Death of the Sanguine Emperor Xlair Silverblade in the Siege of Wudenkin that marked the end of the Pilgrimage War the Sanguine Empire fell apart. From the remnants the kingdom of Reven came to be.

The Seventh Age of Beluaterra

The Theocracy of Reven

At the dawn of the Age of Shadows, also known as the Seventh age of Beluaterra, the new Saints of Revenon church transformed the land that had been The Sanguine Empire into the Theocracy of Reven. The Theocracy of Reven was focused largely upon the worship of Saints, namely the chief saint of Revenon. This Theocracy was fairly short lived and few records exist of its Core beliefs and tenants survive.

The Theocracy of Reven was most known for the many conflicts it found itself embroiled in throughout its existence. These included:

  • The First war with the Vale: The Shattered Vale, seeking a new home in the North sook to claim Wudenkin as a forward capital. This war failed and the Shattered Vale agreed to a cease fire. They would shortly after employ a magical portal to move their population to the North of Reven.
  • The War for Tor: A war fought between the Theocracy of Reven and the Republic of Irondale for control of the region of Tor. The Theocracy lost this war and Tor was claimed by the Republic of Irondale in perpetuity.
  • The Thalmarkin Conflict: A briefly declared war between the Theocracy of Thalmarkin and the Theocracy of Reven due to the incursion of one Vidkunn Thane into Thalmarkin lands. This conflict was resolved through diplomacy without any major confrontations.
  • The Second war with the Vale: A border and political conflict once again between the Theocracy and the Shattered Vale, prompted by a perceived insult levied by the priestess of Revenon Thuraya Montgomery. The Theocracy of Reven lost this was and surrendered claims to regions North of Ircymbar and Junohep.

The Republic of Reven

Shortly after the loss of the Second War with the Vale the religion of Revenon that made up the core of the Theocracy began to fall apart. With the kingdom's identity in crisis the reins of government were given to Diorto Winmon, who restructured the realm into a Republic. The founding and initial years of the Republic were marked by a search for a sense of cultural identity within Reven, and various leaders and nobles all attempted to contribute in various ways. The capital of the realm moved briefly from Vozzessdor to Wudenkin, then back again. There was a brief period in which culture shifted toward an imperialistic model of a core republic, then a shift toward a darker and more depraved identity that harkened to it's founding roots.

Religion

With the collapse of the church of Revenon Reven now accepts most any religion that wishes to preach within its borders.
