Personal Crest of Dimian Indirik

Perdan

The Ibladeshian Campaign

Dimian is a young soldier who left the family home in Montauban on February 14, 2006. Dimian recruited a small unit of archers and headed for Partora, the capital of Perdan. Dimian is currently serving the Army of Perdan, as a noble soldier leading his elite unit of archers, the Red Fletchers, in the Perdan Ghost Riders, and as a Mentor of the realm.

Shortly after joining the PCW, Dimian participated in two assaults on the city of Ibladesh, the capital of Ibladesh. The assaults met with great success, and city of Ibladesh was extensively looted both times.

Following that successful campaign, Dimian was dispatched to the Kalmar Islands following a revolt against the lawful monarchy there. The long, and rather boring, campaign was inconclusive. Although several rebel units were decimated, the small expeditionary force was not able to muster enough troops to lead an assault on the capital.

The Oligarch Mission

Returning to Partora, Dimian refitted his unit, repairing the damage and paying his men. The next campaign led the Red Fletchers off to Westmoor to support Oligarch in their defense against the attacking forces of Fontan and Sirion. After several moderate victories, the expedition met with extreme resistance from the Fontanese and Sirionite forces in Bruck and was forced to retreat.

The next campaign was an expedition into the Itorunt regions of Az Zarqua and Zawr. After several more bloody battles, both sides retreated to refit and recruit more troops.

Tournament in the City of Fontan

Taking a break from the war, Dimian attended the tournament held by Lycastus on the city of Fontan, capital of Light of Fountain. Being new to the ways of war, he managed to defeat one opponent in the swordfighting competition and was knocked out in the first round of the jousting competition. The tournament was not a waste of time, however. He managed to gain quite a bit of skill during his several days at the tournament. All in all, it was time well spent.

Back to the Southern Front

Following the tournament, Dimian took a few weeks off from the war and traveled in the mountains for a few weeks with his family. Well it was that he got to relax for a short while, since after his return to active duty he plunged back into the thick of the war. After a few minor skirmishes in Zawr and Al Arab, his unit was trapped in Al Arab by a large force of Itorunt and Ibladesh troops. The battle was very bloody and many men died on both sides. His unit nearly wiped out, Dimian was captured and thrown in a deep and dark Ibladeshian dungeon. During his stay in the dungeons of Ibladesh, Dimian received a visit from Sorcha, the judge of Ibladesh. The dishonorable wench stole all of his gold, laughing the whole time.

The Sirion/Fontan Invasion

After stealing his gold, the miserable Ibladeshians set him free. With all of his men hunted down by the Ibladesh units in Al Arab, Dimian returned to the Perdan capital of Partora to recruit a new unit. After a small battle in Mulhouse, the Perdan army moved to Meuse to intercept a major incursion of Fontan forces. In this long battle the outnumbered Perdan troops fought like wildcats. The Fontan troops couldn't handle their ferocity, and were defeated. During the course of the battle Dimian was wounded by a vicious volley of arrows. Following his recovery, Dimian continues to serve on the front lines, defending his homeland from the invasion.

Donning the Mantle of the Mentor

Passing through Meuse, Dimian applied for membership in the guild known as the Academy of Knowledge. The Academy maintains a library, and is dedicated to the spreading of knowledge across the lands. Soon after joining, he took up the role of a mentor and began working with young nobles, teaching them the skills they would need to survive in Perdan.

Dimian had great success as a mentor. After teaching a few students, Dimian decided to use some of his newfound notoriety to publish a book. In his book, he recorded some of his observations regarding the tactical uses of archery in combat. This treatise was well received, and soon became a highly sought after work. (OOC: My first ever book, and Dimian gained 2 prestige and a fame.)

Emigration

After attending tournaments in Partora and Castle Ubent. Dimian decided it was time for him to take his leave of the East Island. Boarding a ship on December 4, 2006, Dimain headed for Beluaterra.

The Kingdom of Alluran

Arrival

After a short boat trip, Dimian arrived in the coastal city of Eno, in the Kingdom of Alluran. The city has recently seceded from the realm of Luz de Bia, and the only other noble of the realm was King Distorted. This truly was just a fledgling realm.

Elections, and a Surprise

Immediately upon arrival, Dimian noticed that three of the government positions were unoccupied. Checking the eligible candidates, it became apparent that he was the only eligible candidate for the position. Fulfilling his civic duty as a noble of the Kingdom of Alluran, he cast his votes. Mere hours later, a messenger arrived to inform him that he had won the elections in a landslide, with 100% of the eligible votes having been cast in his favor!

The Scroll of Good and Evil

A few weeks after taking up the mantle of Arch Priest, a new wave of commoners began flooding the realm. These commoners called themselves Adventurers. Several days later, Dimian heard that an adventurer by the name of Gorgon had recovered the Scroll of Good and Evil from the lair on an undead champion. Following a short negotiation, Dimian purchased the scroll for an unspecified amount of gold.

King Dimian

Following the founding of the Religion of Alluran, King Distorted of Alluran stepped down from the throne to follow the calling of a priest. The resulting election showed overwhelming support for Dimian, who promptly ascended the throne and was crowned you King of Alluran.

During Dimian's reign, the Third Invasion began. The forces of the necromancer's Servants, Monster Swarm, and Netherworld appeared. Following the capture of Arch Priest Osrido by the Netherworld forces King Dimian was elected to the Arch Priest position and briefly served as both ruler and judge.

The Brilliant Guard of the Dragonslayer

The Brilliant Guard of the Dragonslayer is an ancient shield of legend. It reappeared in the world in the hands of the daimon lord Reflecting. When he was slain in Bolkenia, the shield was found by Freeman Sven. Freeman Sven offered the Guard to Dimian, who bore the Guard during many battles in the Third Invasion of Beluaterra.

The Cursed Mace of Blood

The Cursed Mace of Blood was discovered by Freeman Melvin of the Kingdom of Alluran. He offered the weapon to Dimian to aide in the defeat of the invaders.

The Daimons

During an epic battle in Avengmil, Dimian was captured by the daimons. Prudent, the daimonic ruler, promised the "royal treatment", and she followed through with several episodes of torture. After a full week in captivity, Dimian found himself in Avengmil, cut off by a daimonic army in Ardmore, and with no money left to pay his troops. It was truly a horrible situation.
