Hello everyone,

I haven't seen an OOC thread about us, so I figured I would make one. The people of Blackhearth Keep are a generally good aligned folk who inhabit a fortress a short distance from the Colony. The Keep functions as a place with its own way of doing things, its own traditions that stem from its Greywood and Order ideologies. While unlikely to declare full independence, it is far enough away and strong enough militarily to function virtually independently from it. This does not prohibit any plot ideas or characters that may be more rebellious and want to push for outright independence.

Some example of people at the keep:

-Those who dislike the sinful ways of the Colony and the Count.

-Exiles or refugees from the Colony.

-Remnants of the Numinous Order.

-Elves (strong alliance with Keepers)

-Those who believe in noble tradition, especially of House Greywood.

-People with a hatred of Orcs or other such wild dangers.

-Persons interested in protecting the land.

-Entrepreneurs, who wish to build something from the ground up.

I'm very interested to hear anyone's ideas about a character they think might fit in. There is no DM application required to join. However, there could be some interesting ideas such as a former member of the Order, or Ymph specific noble bloodlines that would require a DM application, but would fit in well with the Keep and likely earn a higher rank from onset. Additionally, if you wish to send me an app for a character to start out at a higher rank because of a specific background, I would be happy to consider it. PM me with any specific questions you might have.

Blackhearth Keep and House Greywood have a rich history and story in the shrouded isles. Members will undoubtedly learn secrets and become connected to arching story lines larger scoped then their own individually.
