== Purpose and History ==
The Order of the Scythe was founded in the summer of 1789 by Mortimer Grey and Tabitha Wolfsbane, and operates out of Citadel Grey, located in the Calaelen Dominion. The Order is patronised by the Archon Balthazar, and promotes his values of Truth, Leadership and Pragmatism.
On a day to day basis, the Order of the Scythe concerns itself with taming the lands in its immediate vicinity and protecting townships, trade and infrastructure in the region. However, the destruction and cleansing of Rappan Athuk is the Orders ultimate purpose.
The Order values peaceful civilised behaviour, and lawbreaking is dealt with harshly but fairly. Serious infractions are dealt with by death where appropriate, otherwise various sentences of hard labour. Infractions within the Order are dealt with in a similar fashion; it isn't uncommon to see a Hellknight working alongside commoners in construction projects or resource processing, reminding him of what is truly important.
The Order promotes construction projects where it can, and supports budding villages with labour and military protection. It can also be called upon to act as arbiter when required.
