Monsignor Hawyn Cilade never knew his parents. Brother Eldur Beltalion a monk at the ___________ monastery found the infant Hawyn in a basket on the monastery doorstep. The Brother Eldur and the other brothers raised Hawyn. He was a strong willed child often fighting with the other children in the area; despite that though Hawyn grew up strong in the faith.
At the age of 12 Hawyn chose to become an acolyte, and took his first steps towards ordination. He began studying and shadowing the priests of the order. At the age of 16 Hawyn left the monastery and his adoptive family to move to the basilica to study under the Bishop.
He continued to study under the tutelage of the Bishop and other priests. During this time he had seen his first taste of the outside world. While assigned to various priest he was taken on missions for the church. And in these missions Hawyn found his calling.
Only four short years after leaving the monastery the Bishop graduated Hawyn, Ordaining him Deacon of the Church. Whereby he took his vows to the Church; the vows of: Celibacy (and Chastity), Poverty, and Obedience.
The next four years were spent performing various ceremonies and missions for the church; at the end of which Hawyn was ordained as a priest. In his second year as Deacon Hawyn joined the adventuring guild _________, making numerous friends and going on many adventures.
He continued to serve the church faithfully for the next 6 years, the Bishop often sending him on missions for the faith. Three years into his priesthood Hawyn stumbled upon a plot to pull down the church from within its ranks. Together Hawyn, the Bishop, and a few other trusted members of the clergy stopped the heretics in a three year long battle. When the Heretics were finally put down the Bishop appointed Hawyn Monsignor. The rank he remains to this day.

I've designed my character around the assumption of Medieval Fantasy... but I was taking a closer look at the map and there is an unfinished railway.

So Just curious as to what technology level were are going with for play.

i'm going to put up a little back history section.
(the magic/guild wars ect)

but quick answer is low lvl.

the upper epsilon with money have basic steam powered/magic powered tec but nothing major pending if we get going and how far we go abroad thier might be one or two locomotives ect but no cars or airplaines ect

Krumm,

The Briar Saga Guild was founded three years after the official end of the Magic guild wars.

Our founder was Briar Lilly a strong earth druid mage. Founding the guild to pick up the shattered pieces of many of the light guilds shattered in the conflicts leading up to and including the magic guild wars. Many of the guilds that formed from those strong enough to stand in those days branched off to form lesser guilds. often to hunt down the remnants of the dark guilds. to stop this and also to prevent any further guild wars between any guild light or dark.
the 13 strongest mages formed the magic council, and became know as the 13 magic saints.



The Magic Guild Wars

the war like most was started over many extenuated events. Many guilds existed with dubious means of income and extortion of surrounding towns and even of guild members. guilds began fighting over territory and resources with it. Strong mages began to gather lesser mages in power cults and in what could be human trafficking began to extort their powers for their own nefarious means. the tipping point came when the top two guilds both made assassination attempts on the others leaders. only one succeeded and the cast it dark shadow over the lands.


we rose up to resist and fight Tyranny, hate and abuse in the darkness, in the hopes of life, freedom in peace an light. for that many gave their lives, for that we remember and say never again.....

I am the third and currant Guild Master of the Briar Story guild and sitting member of the Magic council. my name is Krumm Dawnsaber, I am also know as the Flame Barrier Saint.

this is the story of part of my chapter of the Briar Story guild.....
