| The armies of the undead within Wudenkin were controlled by ancient beings with ancient Powers. A Corpse Queen controlled the burnt capital with Banshees as generals. The Sanguine Order clashed with the hordes of rot, wading through corpses and ethereal screams one step at a time toward Wudenkin. | |||
Three days of battle, from Verdomite to Wudenkin, and on the dusk of the fourth day Lord Silverblade took the city of Wudenkin, occupying the central palace and naming it the Sanguine Citadel. | |||
Though, once the city was claimed, it was far from cleared. The Corpse Queen had been defeated, but her call had reached far and wide. The Sanguine Order endured assaults for twenty three days before the last of the dead lay motionless. | |||
With the city of Wudenkin taken, Xlair declared the establishment of Vordul Sanguinis, the Sanguine Empire. The Sanguine Order was split into the Crimson Legion, and the Ministry of Shadow. | |||
The new Emperor Silverblade announced the four Disciples of his Empire. Two to lead the Ministry of Shadow; Azizah Daris and Rasil Grimblade. And two to lead the Crimson Legion, Copper Gronholt and Svari Storme. | |||
Through the Disciples, the Empire grew, and established itself as a Sovereign Realm among Beluaterra. | |||

| The Sanguine Empire has grown, stretching from Ircymbar to Tindle, with the great northern ridge of mountains pouring out fine ores and gems. The city of Wudenkin is growing quickly with trade and residents pouring in from the nearby lands. | |||
Peace doesn’t last long on Beluaterra, and the rumblings of war are stirring. News reached the Sanguine Citadel that Queen Bae of Thalmarkin had gone missing, and soon after Disciple and Warlord Svari Storme vanished along with her Marshall, Sol Tempest. | |||
The very next day, messengers arrived that Thalmarkin had declared war upon Irondale, and Nothoi had joined on Irondale’s defense against the Kin of Thalmar. | |||
Emperor Silverblade announced the dissolution of the Crimson Legion, and formed the Frozen Blood army, led by the Emperor and Craglan the Cold. The Ministry of Shadow has so far indicated that the Sanguine Empire will remain neutral, but have eyes in the shadows on all borders, watching.. waiting. | |||

| In the absence of Queen Bae, the Mad King Zatar took hold of Thalmarkin, leading the wars on Iron Dale who were supported by Nothoi. The Ministry of Shadow had declared that The Sanguine Empire would maintain it's neutrality as long as the warring parties stayed outside of Vordul borders. The Thalmarkin, once allies to Vordul Sanguinis, broke this agreement not once, but twice. | |||
On the second offense, The Emperor had enough, and in unison the Empire picked up their blades and marched northward. With the Ministry officials leading his charge, the Duke of Vozzessdor, Timsen Quasath, was given the opportunity to surrender. As no words were reached, Ehrich Weisz of the Shattered Vales joined the war and laid siege to Vozzessdor. | |||
By the time The Sanguine Empire arrived, the city laid in occupation, and the Emperor of Shattered Vales surrendered the city to Emperor Silverblade. The Duke of Vozzessdor, seeing the might of the armies, abandoned his fealty to Thalmarkin, and brought the collapse of Yipinaltke, Junohep, and Vore, and accepted the Rulership of the Sanguine Empire over Vozzessdor. | |||
With such a blow, the Thalmarkin cast out the Mad King Zatar, and elected Queen Gilly Gabanus in his place. Being more diplomatic than her predecessor, a cease fire was agreed upon between the Sanguine Empire, Shattered Vales and the Thalmarkin. As the Thalmarkin war continued against Iron Dale and Nothoi, the two Empires returned to their realms to allow the war to play out. | |||
From there, Emperor Silverblade closed himself inside of the Sanguine Citadel, and sealed the Palace to all but the Disciples and Gabriel, known as The Voice of Darkness. | |||

| From within the Sanguine Citadel, the Emperor delves into experiments of blood and shadow. Screams can be heard echoing through the Shadow Market, resounding from the northern tower of the Citadel, to fall into silence during the day. Occasionally, a Disciple or Gabriel is seen visiting the Citadel, and then to exit with a sense of purpose and conviction. | |||
Plotting within, the Emperor sends out requests for the Sworn to carry out, each being its own experiment while he monitors their results. One such test, being put upon Count Eriol Blackdagger, resulted in a successful diplomatic agreement with the Empire's eastern neighbor, Ar Agyr. With the diplomatic success, the Count was brought forward and gifted with the Blood of the Emperor, and elevated to Disciple.. the first to be honored with the title on Beluaterra. | |||
During these last days, very little was heard from the Emperor, until at the turn of the year. The Emperor emerged from the Sanguine Citadel in Wudenkin, his mind was preoccupied but he drove his Disciples forward to war with Obia'Syela, who crossed their lands to occupy their holy land of Keffa. As the war was declared, the then allies of Obia'Syela, Shattered Vales, began to mobilize their armies in the south, while The Emperor moved north toward Keffa. | |||
As the Frozen Blood attacked Keffa, the Emperor himself capturing the Grand Mistress Saoirse MacArbin, Shattered Vales sneaked into the city of Wudenkin and conquered her from within. When the Emperor and his armies returned, they found their entrance barred and the walls manned by the Shattered Vales. Without hesitation, and with the same sense of distraction, Xlair Silverblade led the attack upon overwhelming numbers in order to retake Wudenkin. | |||
In the battle, Xlair fought against the armies, and breached the city of Wudenkin. In the courtyard before the Sanguine Citadel, he fought against Jecht Tideweaver and the armies of Shattered Vales. It was in this battle, that the Emperor fell to his wounds, and his physical reign of the Sanguine Empire ended. | |||
The wizard, Craglan "The Cold" Mejor, encased his body in ice and performed a dark ritual in the crypts beneath Wudenkin. When the ritual completed, there was a massive explosion of darkness that rocked the city, and Xlair's body had vanished. From this it was collectively believed that the Emperor had Arisen, as the cult of Vordulism had preached, and his battles against the Dark Mistress began. | |||

Introduction
Vordul Sanguinis, also known as the Sanguine Empire, is a tyranny lead through power and fear. The lore and religion of the Empire follow the ascension of the creator of Vordul Sanguinis, Xlair Silverblade, who they believe has ascended to Godhood to challenge the Dark Mistress who is responsible for the Undead. During the wars with Obia'Syela and Shattered Vales, the "Eternal Emperor" was defeated in battle and "Ascended".
During his reign in physical form, the religion of Vordulism was formed and centered around the perseverance of the power of one's blood, and their Oath in dedication to the Eternal Emperor. This Blood Oath provided one with the Mark of the Sworn, an "X" scar on the left forearm, which guarantees their life eternal in his armies to battle the Bloodless and the Dark Mistress. Above the Sworn, and closest to the Emperor, were the Disciples. A Disciple had been specifically chosen to carry out his divine will and act as a conduit of Xlair's will.
Xlair and his Disciples, along with the Wizard Craglan "The Cold" Mejor, the Sanguine Order claimed the ancient city of Wudenkin from the clutches of undead, or what they called the Bloodless, and formed Vordul Sanguinis. The Empire spread to cover the mountains, the plains to the east, and west, surrounding Lake Salaman.
Post Ascension of Xlair Silverblade, the Church of Vordulism took up the Emperor's rituals concerning the Blood Oath, and the elevated faithful of the Disciples, as a practice of the Religion. Though Vordul Sanguinis is Tyrannical in nature, Vordulism brings many Theocratic overtones. Taking the Blood Oath is now one and the same as joining Vordulism, and those of the Church are often favored above the Forsworn, those who have not taken the Blood Oath and joined Vordulism.
Politics & Culture
Vordul Sanguinis abides by the tyrannical rule of the most powerful among their peers. Through sheer strength, fear, intrigue, or connections, the power is what drives the Sanguine Empire. With ambition often rewarded, and disobedience severely punished, the Empire maintains strict order. The Vizier of Vordul Sanguinis holds the throne, and holds the power to appoint the Crimson Judge, Seneschal, and Warlord in order to lead Vordul Sanguinis through blood and shadow.
The Eternal Emperor signified that through all adversity and pain, that one can persevere and conquer all challenges. Vordul Sanguinis culture follows much the same principle by elevating those who are capable of enduring pain (physical and otherwise) and overcoming it for the good of the Empire. Those who fail to obey the commands of the Vizier and the Council are often tortured so that they main gain new understanding through pain.
Beneath the Royal Council preside the Duchies which govern large swathes of land or cities, entrusted by the Vizier and the Royal Council to adhere to the directives of the Realm. The duchies house the higher nobility which are entrusted to rule the regions of the Duchy, who in turn hold dominance over the Knights and Dames that hold estates within their regions.
Failure to listen to the command structure and obey your superiors is often met with torture (RP Torture as no game mechanic to torture your own nobles) in order to enlighten the offender, or a fine. Extreme or repeat cases of disobedience may be met with being banned or executed.
Religion - Vordulism
Vordulism was founded by Godfrey Greybrook after he joined the Sanguine Empire shortly after it's formation by Xlair Silverblade. While getting acclimated with the culture of Vordul Sanguinis, Godfrey heard stories about the new Empire's leader, and sought to find the true history of Emperor Silverblade.
Godfrey learned that the reason the Emperor wore such cruel armor, and was rumored to bathe in blood, was due to a curse from his own Family. The Silverblade Family worshipped the Old Gods, which consisted of the Masked One, the Dark Mistress, the Ice Queen, the Wolf Lord, and the Ephemeral Emperor. The Silverblade family, either through corruption or misguidance, saw the Dark Mistress as not only the Mother of Death, but also the power of the Undead. Through their cult like worship of Undeath, they idolized the undead and wished to become Liches and Priests of Death to control them to do their bidding.
Having been betrayed by his own Father due to the power struggle against the eldest son of Silverblade, and heir to the Throne, Xlair was cursed to be executed in a fashion to create from him a powerful Death Knight. He was encased in a torture device said to be possessed by the creator, Arshava, which tortures and bleeds the occupant dry until they're body can no longer function, and their tortured soul captured by the magic of the Armor.
During the ritual, Xlair's captains broke into the temple and slew the priests, carrying Xlair, who was still encased in the Armor of Arshava, from the area and to freedom. These captains were to become the first Disciples among the formation of the cult of Xlair, the Sanguine Order. Rather than dying, Xlair learned to conquer the armor, and persevere through the pain, by feeding the armor blood, and overcoming the pain through sheer force of will.
Blood Oath |
---|
I am Sworn to the Eternal Emperor. As it has been given, it can be taken, by his word. |
This perseverance and strength became a core tenant and was the foundation of Vordulism faith. That through sheer strength of will, overcoming the tortures of life, one can gain purpose and strength. Xlair embodied overcoming all obstacles, and the strength coursing through your veins that could be harness with enough discipline. Those closest to the soon to be Emperor, began to willingly give a sacrifice of their blood to the cursed armor, to show their dedication to Xlair, and faith in his vision. From this ritual, the Blood Oath was formed, and those faithful to the Emperor were required to give blood, and say the Oath, in order to join the Faith.
The sacrifice is accompanied by an Oath to the Eternal Emperor, which once finished, a ceremonial silver dagger is used to cut an "X" into the left forearm, and the blood of the wound to fill a silver goblet. The "X" scar on the forearm signifies the bearer as a Sworn member of the church, and is referred to as the Mark of the Sworn.
Those Sworn to Xlair, the Eternal Emperor, believe that he has achieved his goal on earth, which was to obtain enough power to ascend to the Heavens and begin to form his new Order, and wage war upon the Dark Mistress. Those faithful to the Eternal Emperor in life, will join his Order in death to live eternally in his Empire. Once his conquest is finished, the Undead will fail to exist, and he will reign over Death itself, and provide his faithful eternal life on Beluaterra.
Military - The Frozen Blood
The Frozen Blood is commanded by the Warlord and encompasses the military strength of Vordul Sanguinis. All nobles within the Sanguine Empire are required to be within the Frozen Blood so that the Vizier and Disciples have consistent reports of each army, priest, and so on. The command of an empire seeded on pain and ambition trusts few, and it is well known that the Disciples are watching everything.
Obedience to orders is strictly enforced, and those who show strength and ferocity are quick to be recognized.
The Warlord also works in tandem with the Seneschal for coordinating infrastructure improvements such as walls and defenses.
A sub-guild of the Frozen Blood also exists, containing promising Commoners who assist with scouting of rogue camps, treasure hunting, and scouting. The Frozen Blood Guild is a promising way for both Commoners and Minor Nobility to gain recognition among the Disciples.
Laws & Infrastructure
The Sworn nobility of Vordul Sanguinis answer to the Seneschal and Crimson Judge when it comes to the internal infrastructure of the Empire. The Seneschal coordinates the food stores, gold transfers, and domestic needs of granaries, workshops, etc.. Within the Empire, the Dukes control vast swathes of lands and/or Cities, and command the Lords and Ladies who govern the regions, who command the Knights and Dames of their particular region.
All nobility, Sworn or not, are to adhere to commands of their superiors within the confines of the Laws and governance of the Empire.
Law | Description |
---|---|
No Unapproved Looting | Looting or theft without the permission of a Disciple or Marshall is not allowed. |
Disobeying a Disciple | Failure to obey, or outwardly disobeying a Disciple is illegal in Vordul Sanguinis. |
Disrespecting a Sworn | Forsworn or Sworn attempting to slander or demean another Sworn is not tolerated as it causes a decay in the stability of the Empire. Continued offenses will result in punishment by the Crimson Judge |
No Movement Out of Realm | Leaving realm boundaries outside of explicit orders is seen as suspicious and unlawful. |
The Vizier and the Disciples oversee the infrastructure and are above the standard hierarchy as listed below. Therefor a Disciple that is the Lord of a Region, does -not- answer to the Duke, but the Duke answers to the Disciple in these occasions. Below the Disciples, the structure is pretty standard where the Dukes/Duchesses are above the Lords/Ladies, and they are above the Knights/Dames. In the rare circumstance that a Forsworn holds a region or duchy, they are begrudgingly accepted by those beneath them, but they rarely have the respect of the Sworn.

Please note that we understand the evil and strict nature of Vordul Sanguinis is not the standard within Battlemaster. We've set this up with as much intention to be unique, as we have set it to be challenging. This is not "easy mode", it will be a cruel grind through role playing and decisive action toward moving up the chain of the command. As much as I (OOC) would love to make you all Disciples, take and follow all advice given, that's simply not possible. I will echo the words often told to me about Battlemaster, this is a slow game, no one is going to make it from Forsworn to Disciple in a short amount of time. It will take a lot of work, dealing with strict Disciples, undertaking quests and demands, and showing that you're a good follower/Sworn before you'll make any progress upward.
