===History===

A noble family of long memory in Foda of [[Tara]] in [[Atamara]], the Pryde Family has a proud military tradition supporting their home.  Lead by Jerome Pryde, long-time patriarch of the family and former Knight of Foda before an unfortunate encounter with monsters, the Pryde Family is fanatically loyal to [[Tara]] and to Foda.

Regstav Pryde was the last Tyrant of [[Tara]] and the Duke of Foda.

Two of their nobles, after gaining much renown in the wars against [[Redspan]] and [[Carelia]], left home to follow a calling in the realm of [[Plergoth]] and [[Hetland]] in [[Beluaterra]] and built up more fame there.  Both realms were destroyed by the [[Daimons]] though and now two Prydes live and fight in [[Nothoi]].

Another noble lived in [[Dwilight]] for a time where he gained much renown in [[Xinhai]], [[Aurora]], [[Astrum]], and [[Kabrinskia]].

A final member of the family lived in the [[Far East]] in the realm of [[Kindara]].

===Famous Family Members===

====Regstav Pryde====

[[Image:Regstav_Pryde_Head.jpg]]

Born in [[Tara]], Regstav fought against [[Redspan]] and [[Carelia]] before leaving to find his glory.

A lord and Royal of [[Plergoth]], Regstav fought the evil rebels and their human and Daimon allies in an attempt to rebuild [[Plergoth]] into a powerful realm.  He took part in the sacking of the capital of [[Khthon]] and hoped to one day reunite all of the Plergothian cities for good.

Then the Daimons destroyed [[Plergoth]].  He then fought with the new realm of [[Hetland]] as a lord, former general, and general again.  He commanded the Army of Creasur against the [[Daimons]] as well.  When the [[Daimons]] destroyed [[Hetland]] and covered [[Creasur]] and the surrounding lands with the [[Blight]], he was captured and deported.

He went to [[Atamara]] where he returned to [[Tara]] and his home of [[Foda]].  He fought there for a time with the [[Long-Lost Sword of Flame]] that the [[Daimons]] wanted no part of still in his hands.  He was the last Tyrant of [[Tara]] when [[Atamara]] sank beneath the waves.

He then found himself washing ashore on the coast of [[Dwilight]] and fought for numerous realms until he found a new reason to live in [[Astrum]].

He has said at times that he died once, and the gods returned him to the lands.  He certainly appeared younger than he was when he served as Tyrant of [[Tara]].  (OOC - the age code was still active at the time, so I retired the character and started a new one with the same name, rping it as the gods returning him with a young body)

Regstav served as ruler of [[Astrum]] for a time, and then as banker until he finally found the heroic death he was waiting for while helping defend the combined army of three nations caught in a surprise attack on the way home from a victorious campaign.

He is known to have wielded the following items of interest:
* [[Long-Lost Sword of Flame]]
* [[Impenetrable Chain Mail of Protection]]
* [[Ogaduir's Ring of Xerus]]
* [[Sturdy Aegis of Victory]]

====Yao Ling Pryde====

[[Image:Yao_Ling_Pryde_Head.jpg]]

Yao Ling was born in [[Foda]] in [[Tara]] long ago.  She fought against [[Redspan]] and [[Carelia]] before leaving to find glory in the wars on [[Beluaterra]].

She fought for [[Plergoth]] for a time, and was credited with killing the king of [[Kthon]] in battle at [[Dyomoque]].  She fought many other battles at the time, but the path of a warrior would not be her's forever.

She joined the priesthood of [[Daishi]] when it split from [[Omniovoism]] in a holy war to protect [[Plergoth]].  She fought it until it fell to Daimon worship, and then until it died out altogether.

She has lived through multiple Daimon Invasions, seeing the fall of [[Plergoth]] and [[Hetland]] to their scourge.

During the Sixth Invasion, she was in [[Reeds]] when the Daimons overran the city.  She used a powerful relic, the [[Screeching Ring of Daishi Souls]], in conjunction with several portal stones laid down by an adventurer to drive them from the city.  It burned her hand away entirely, but then the gods used the power to give her new life and she appears once more as she did when she first came to [[Beluaterra]].

(OOC - this happened around the time the age code was removed, so I tied that to the official mod-driven event where her hand was burned up and then regenerated)

Yao Ling is a gentler soul than her cousins, and prefers to build and repair people and places.  She wishes for peace, and continually looks to fix anything she can. She continues to lead [[Daishi]] as it expands in the surviving realms of [[Beluaterra]].

She found the following ring while in Reeds:
[[Screeching Ring of Daishi Souls]]

====Benjamin Pryde====
[[Image:Benjamin_Pryde_Head.jpg]]

Benjamin first pursued glory by going to the [[South-West Island]] where he joined battle for the city of [[Sandalak (SWI)]] against her enemies.  He fought in some small battles and gained some renown. He even became a true noble their, holding a region near the capital.  He fled that continent when it began to sink beneath the waves and returned to [[Foda]] with the family that he managed to get out.

After a time, he felt the need to make his mark again and traveled to the [[Far East]] and the land of [[Kindara]] where he led cavalry against any who would stand against him.

He returned home to [[Tara]] and [[Foda]] again after his cousin was deported from [[Beluaterra]] and fought for [[Tara]].  He served there as general and in many other positions until the day the [[Atamara]] sank beneath the waves.

He found himself washing ashore on the [[East Continent]] soon after, and has served numerous realms since then.  [[Eponllyn]], [[Oligarch]], [[Highmarch]], [[Perdan]], [[Eponllyn]], and [[Perdan]] again have received his oaths of loyalty.  He was even a member of [[Perleone]] for a time, though that was due to a ducal succession and not his own actions.  He returned to [[Perdan]] with his region as soon as the treaty between the two realms was finalized.  He fought in the [[Sirion]] Civil War with full heart, making it his mission to reform that fallen realm and end the rule of the dark elves that command it.  The elves are gone now, taking their magic with them, and Benjamin remains.  His new mission is to build a new Great Library in Perdan City rivaling that of the Great Library of Oligarch that he once ruled over.  Many of his Librarians come directly from that Library and have devoted their lives to supporting his vision.

====Paused or Retired Characters====

[[Image:Betty_Pryde_Head.jpg]]

Betty Pryde

An adventurer in [[Nothoi]], she fought the Daimons and their destroyers every day in support of humanity.  Until one day she entered a portal and devoted her life force to destroying the undead south of Creasur

Medron Pryde

A young noble in [[Tara]], Medron proved himself on the field of battle, though has not seen a true war the likes of his cousins. He was for a time a priest of the [[The_Order]], following in Yao Ling's shoes, and he enjoyed his work, shepherding the followers of his realm in their war against those who follow evil gods.  Then he received visions from the Stars and moved to [[Xinhai]].  There he joined [[Sanguis_Astroism]] and has followed the Stars ever since.  He became the first and only Prime Minister of [[Aurora]], later serving as its Banker and Judge.  He was banned by the realm's tyrant and returned to [[Xinhai]] where he remained in exile for a time.  After the tyrant destroyed [[Aurora]] by driving off most of her nobles, Medron moved on to protect [[Astrum]] that was under attack from both the north and the south.  The combined armies of [[Sanguis_Astroism]] have destroyed the northern enemy and now [[Astrum]] begins to rebuild.


Crystal Pryde

A daughter of little renown, and less recognition in the Pryde Family, Crystal currently "searches for fame, fortune, and good drink" in [[Arcachon]], a realm in the [[Far East]].  She claims to have found much of both, not to mention a small of dash of excitement, in her years there.  She claims to have found artifacts of ancient times there, including the [[Girdle of Athios]] and the [[Enchanted Scythe of Slaying]], though many wonder if those are hoaxes designed to gain fame, fortune, and pretty little men.  Little has been heard of her in some time, and many wonder if she is dead or if she has settled down.

==The Remembrance==

===The Exodus===

In the annuls of the Pryde Family, [[Tara]] in [[Atamara]] will always be home.  We were born there.  We grew up there.  We fought there. But time passed, and proud [[Tara]] became weakened by treachery. Once a great realm, it was reduced to a single city surrounded by a bare minimum of forest land. It couldn't even grow enough food to feed itself, and its knights could no longer support their troops without using family funds. During this time, it came to our knowledge from family members in faraway lands, that there existed a land created by the gods in the image of [[Atamara]]. In this land, creation was new and the gods walked the lands, testing their rule of nature and man. Monsters and undead roamed, threatening the ordinary citizens.  It was a land waiting for brave knights to come and find glory in the hunting of these fell abominations.  The land was known as [[Beluaterra]].

Family members of [[Tara]] reported a war between [[Plergoth]] and [[Enweil]], two great nations of that far away land.  They said that [[Plergoth]] could use good knights to fight and so it was that many knights of Tara began the long trip in search of fame, fortune, and the glory to be had in that distant realm.  We arrived and saw that the reports were true.  [[Beluaterra]] was much like [[Atamara]], and as the ships plied their way up the western river, we began to recognize the hills of our homeland's greatest ally. We left the ships behind and traveled overland to our homeland in the great forest.  We found a surprise though when we arrived.

In [[Tara]], we lived in a once proud city, reduced in size and glory along with the realm.  Here in [[Beluaterra]] we saw a grand city, ruling over no less than three other cities, and commanding great swaths of farmland that could feed every citizen and sell to others.  It was a large land.  It was a rich land.  It was a productive land.  It was a land that could easily give us the chance to earn our fame and glory, fighting off the plagues of mankind.

But [[Plergoth]] was not as it seemed.  All was not well, and as the troops of [[Enweil]] marched through its lands, we soon found that glory would be harder to grasp than we had first believed.

===The Tale of Plergoth===

The nation of [[Plergoth]] first came into being after the First Invasion of [[Beluaterra]] by the undead.  Its capital of Creasur was colonized by [[Enweil]], one of the nations that survived the assault.  In those days, [[Plergoth]] was surrounded by other small realms and so it was a peaceful realm.  Little is known of those times due to the Second Invasion that ravaged the continent, but [[Plergoth]] survived and thrived in the aftermath. It expanded into the fallen areas surrounding it, and captured the cities of Cwellndell, Reeds, and Dyomonique.  This made it one of the largest and richest of the realms in [[Beluaterra]].

With this great power though, did not come great responsibility in the minds of the Great Nobles of Plergoth.  They began to think themselves untouchable, and let the lands grow fallow.  They levied crushing taxes on the common citizens that drove down their productivity while lining their family mansions with gold.  And then, in a time of peace, they executed a noble of [[Enweil]] and drew the ire of that realm.  Dyomonique seceded rather than be destroyed by the war and formed [[Khthon]].  The rest of the realm fought though, and marched out to meet the mighty armies of [[Enweil]].  [[Plergoth]] lost.  And when it came time to rebuild the army, to march back out again, the "lesser nobles" had no money.  The Great Nobles of Plergoth had changed the taxes to keep all of money centered on themselves, and when the damaged army marched out again, they remained behind letting [[Enweil]] slaughter all who had followed the general's orders to attack.

The enraged general protested the actions of the Great Nobles of Plergoth, demanded an accounting of their actions, and one by one other trusted nobles of Plergoth echoed his demands. The elections that followed were a landslide against the Great Nobles of Plergoth, with nearly two-thirds of the votes going against them.  The new council made peace with [[Enweil]] and then began working to repair the damage caused by the war and years of neglect.  The Great Nobles of Plergoth though could not stand the idea of not being in power and called for a revolution to repeal the will of the people.  The armies of the Great Nobles were defeated in the streets of Creasur and they were banned from the realm for all time.

And then Reeds seceded, giving the rebels a home and a base to strike out at [[Plergoth]].  Some of the rebels joined [[Khthon]] as well, where they conned that realm into violating its treaty with [[Plergoth]].  They attacked [[Plergoth]] and then declared war.  It was not the first first or last nation to do that in those early days, but as months passed, the rebels began to lose their allies as one after another realized they were simply being used as shields that took most of the damage while rebel troops mysteriously held back.  And, as was expected, the rebel lands suffered under their rule with massive taxes and no care taken to maintain them.  [[Plergoth]] on the other hand had two armies, one devoted to holding off the rebels and their allies, and a second devoted solely to building up the realm's infrastructure.  While the soldiers weren't happy performing manual labor, they did take pride in keeping the realm working at maximum efficiency.  It was due to their work that the main army was able to hold off what was sometimes three and four-to-one odds in favor of the rebels.

But the long rebellion had another price to it.  The men and women that volunteered were not the only people to suffer.  The common citizens did so as well.  [[Plergoth]], and [[Enweil]] as well, had long been dominated by the faith of [[Omniovoism]].  It was an old faith, followed by what some counts say are hundreds of thousands of people.  And its greatest priests were all rebels.  They used their position to rally the people against [[Plergoth]], to attack their own, to burn those who defended their nation at the stake, and blood ran in the streets while the army fought for the life of the realm.  And so it was that the soldiers, long the followers of [[Daishi]], began to share their faith with the common people.  Priests rose up, and the oppressed fought back against the "Egg Suckers".  A new wave of religion flared throughout the realm, and the priests of [[Omniovoism]] despaired.  A new revolution had begun, this one brought not by the lesser nobles of Plergoth, but by the common people of Plergoth.  They demanded a holy war against the Egg Suckers, against the rebels that commanded them, and the people demanded a pure government.

And so it was that in the fires of rebellion, the people found comfort in [[Daishi]] and the government of [[Plergoth]] became an extension of the church.  United as never before, [[Plergoth]] was ready to crush the rebels once and for all.

And then the undead came.  And then the monsters came.  And then the Daimons came.  The Third Invasion had begun.

The undead attacked everyone, weakening the human realms.  The monsters ravaged anything they could, while fighting the undead.  And then, into the weakened state of affairs the undead created, the Daimons struck.  It came as no surprise to the people of [[Plergoth]] when the rebels signed on to follow the Daimons.  First they cooperated.  Then they fought beside the Daimons.  Then they welcomed the Daimons into their capitol.  And then they worshiped them.  The Great Nobles abandoned the Egg and began praying to their new "Living God", and the late great religion of [[Omniovoism]] faded away.  It is ironic that its last religious artifacts survived in Creasur, once home to the greatest temple of that religion.  It has fallen now, destroyed by the Daimons, and the memory of that once proud religion will fade away with that loss.

[[Plergoth]] refused to bow to the Daimons though, and as the Third Invasion waged they fought back with swords and bows and knives and faith.  Again and again the target of the Daimons and their rebel followers, the lands of [[Plergoth]] burned, but they never gave up.  Again and again they got back up, picked up their swords and bows and knives, and ran back into battle with the rebels as their masters.  The Daimons could not understand this, and labeled the people mad, suicidal.  They could not imagine a people so singular in their refusal to bow before them.  And so they finally bowed to the prayers of their most devoted and faithful followers.

Some say the Third Invasion is over now.  If it is, the Daimons have given their faithful one final gift.  Reeds stands strong, built up and protected by Daimon power.  Creasur burns under Daimon flames, her people starve in the night, and those who can't hide beneath their shattered homes are raped and eaten by patrolling Daimons.  The armies of [[Plergoth]] are scattered, and her allies suffer attacks of their own while the rebels look on in glee.

And so the late great nation of [[Plergoth]] comes to an end.
