Beresford Castle
Built at the end of the first dark age by good king Acheron, Beresford Castle became the center of the kingdom of Bolestra. Built on the bank of the Cullinan River, the castle became a haven for those who sought to protect good. Over the years the three orders of the Rampant Lion, the Verdent Dragon and the Golden Crown were created to oversee the protection of the kingdom. Each order, led from their respective tower swears to protect their virtures of Loyalty, Strength and Wisdom.

Henri II of France
The Paresean:
Lundi, Juin 30th, 1559 A.D.
Henri II, King of France, avid sportsman and benelovent monarch was killed today in a Joust to celebrate the Peace of Cateau-Cambresis and the Marriage of his daughter Elizabeth of Valois to Spain's King Philip II.
Gendarmeire Commandant Hugh De Chateau, witnessed and investigated the death and proclaimed it an accident. Apparently the lance of the King's opponent snapped after hitting the king's shield and the point lodged in the King's eye. He was returned to the Royal Palace where he expired in the presence of his family.

The Progression of Sir Egbert through the Orders
Once knighted Sir Egbert Ath Markin was charged with a quest to protect the people from the enemies menacing kingdom. The quest had three tasks, each embodying the motto of its respective order. The completion of each would allow entrance into each of the sacred orders of the kingdom.
For entrance into the Order of the Rampant Lions, who's motto is "Strength through Faith", Sir Egbert must defeat an overwhelming party of raiding orcs. To become a member of the Verdant Dragons Sir Egbert must embody the motto, "Victory through Perseverance" and defeat the dark wizard of Stone Mountain. The final, and most dangerous task, to gain entrance to the Order of the Golden Crown, Sir Egbert must as their motto states use, "Wisdom gained from Knowledge" to defeat the great red dragon Keeroth and return the dragon's horde to the king's treasury.
Will he succeed in his varied tasks to complete his sacred quest and become a member of the highest order?
