Mantle of Responsibility

> "The Mantle of Responsibility shelters all, but only the strongest of all can be it's master." - High Prophet of Transcendence
>
>

## Mantle of Responsibility

Eld symbol, commonly associated with the Mantle in ancient Israelite texts

### God(s)

None

The **Mantle of Responsibility** is a theocratic philosophical doctrine, and is a religion based on the teachings and scriptures of the Ancient Israelite's, who are believed to be the first civilization. It is the largest religion in the world, and is the state religion of the Crysantheum Empire. Those who follow the Mantle believe that it is the duty of the strongest nation to protect all life on Oceania, as it was written in the Book of Janus by the Ancient Israelite's.

It is documented that the Mantle of Responsibility has been held by only one confirmed civilization, being the Ancient Israelite's. The creed was so strongly followed by this civilization that, during a period of great expansion and industrialization, the civilization literally split itself apart in order to prevent a bloody civil war. The Book of Janus discusses that, following this 'great divide', those who remained in the holy land had 'ascended' and become Gods within their own right, as they had fulfilled the Mantle's true purpose, to preserve life whatever the cost.

Following this, the Creed faded out of modern usage for centuries, until an archaeological excavation revealed the Book of Janus in a cave near the City of Israel. It was then studied by the then Emperor, Ignatious III, who sought to adopt the doctrine as a state religion, believing that the Crysantheum Empire is the only nation that can wield the Mantle.
Portland Human Resistance

**Portland Human Resistance** is a group of humans who are looking to break free of the vampires' slavery and oppressive ways. This resistance was formed after The Rising with a singular goal in mind, fight against the Vampires and eliminate the dangerous species entirely.

In fact, they should strike First National Bank, where all the weapons and blades have been stashed. However, his followers don't seem to have much faith in the plan as the bank is too well-guarded, the only member willing to follow through is Sheema, who claims that she might know another way into the building. Later, Sheema has managed to infiltrate Rebecca's lair, managing to steal a set of blueprints. Unfortunately, Rebecca catches her before she can make her getaway, though Sheema is shocked when the lady vampire actually lets her go. Sheema takes the blueprints to the Portland Resistance, where it's revealed that the First National Bank that contains a stockade of weapons can be infiltrated via an underground tunnel system.

During a mission, Campbell, Quaid and a few other members of the Resistance have infiltrated the abandoned bank where a supply of weapons are supposedly being held. Quaid enters first but she does not return, It ends up being a trap as they're ambushed by vampires, after which Campbell accuses Sheema of being a traitor, as she should've warned them that Rebecca willingly gave her the blueprints to the bank. Just then, Rebecca attacks, demanding the location of someone named 'Taka.' She kills Campbell and the rest of the group and tells Sheema that she will now lead her to the other members of the Resistance.

Believed to be dead, it is soon revealed that Quaid is in fact alive, Rebecca and Dr. Sholomenko bring her back to the camp. Sholomenko shouts out that they have traitors amongst them, but many of them have recently been captured thanks to Quaid. Rebecca says that she's an example, cooperate and live or resist and die, then setting Quaid free. Quaid never told the vampires anything, saying they won't believe her, but Rebecca disagrees, she can already see the betrayal in their faces. The Resistance has taken Quaid back to their headquarters and tied her to a chair, demanding to know what she told them, Taka questions her as she insist that she would never betray the Resistance, ultimately, he doesn't believe her, killing Quaid as the Resistance has no use for traitors.

Van Helsing Wiki:Badge Boosting

**Badge Boosting** is prohibited on this wiki. Administrators are free to use their personal discretion to issue repercussions to users for boosting badges as they see fit.

We urge you to remember that there is no material benefit to be had from earning these badges. While they are a good indicator of faithful and efficient users, there is no physical reward and ultimately a badge is simply an image on a computerized platform. It should not be taken seriously.

## Boosting

Badge Boosting is the act of making unnecessary or problematic edits in order to win badges, which are meant to be awarded for certain achievements in editing. Badge Boosting includes the following.....

* Mischievous edits and then the prompt undoing of them. No harm is done to the page, due to the reverting of the edit but this is still boosting, and it will not be tolerated.

* Including useless pictures or pictures from the exact same frame to multiple pages, in order to achieve a picture related badge.

* Creating multiple blogs corresponding to the amount of blogs needed to earn a certain blogging achievement.

* Creating nonfunctional or irrelevant categories or misusing established categories, such as adding them where they do not belong also counts as boosting.

## Not Boosting

Some things may appear to be boosting, but are not always so. For instance....

* Edit wars between a loyal contributor and a troll, who is trying to vandalize a page, and the user who is quickly undoing his edits. If this user is simply signing out and in again to vandalize/undo, the admins can tell simply by checking the IP address. Also, all edit wars should be reported to an Administrator/Bureaucrat.

* Editors will often update a page in stages, perhaps one section at a time, particularly when making extensive alterations or improvements to the entire article, in order to prevent cross-editing. Users may also notice a mistake immediately after making their edit, and will then edit again to correct said mistake. Multiple edits such as this are allowed, although within reason.

Valid contributions with the aim of garnering an achievement is of course allowed. However, contributors should exercise great caution in ensuring that these additions are sensible, useful and accurate. Instances where boosting is suspected will be investigated and reviewed by an Administrator.

## Badges

The Achievement Badges are a reward for loyal editing and hard work, to encourage contributors to keep editing and helping out the wiki.

* **Bronze Badges** - This badge gives the editor 10 points when they are awarded. They're often the easiest to obtain. Usually, these badges are achieved by performing around 5 to 20 edits.

* **Silver Badges** - This badge give the editor 50 points when they are awarded. They're the second easiest to obtain. Usually, these badges are achieved by performing around 25 to 100 edits.

* **Gold Badges** - This badge gives the editor 100 points when they are Awarded. They're the third hardest to obtain. Usually, these badges are achieved by performing around 100 to 500 edits.
Kingdom of Torydain

**Torydain** is a remote Island in Western Terronem. It
lies in the  Emerald Sea, south of Braynue. It
is ruled by House Sharpe.

## History

The original inhabitants of Torydain were the bloodfolk. Little is known about their lives before Mykael and his followers arrived.

Around 937, during Mykael’s
reign as King of the Dominlands, Torydain was
explored by many of Mykael’s
“mapping parties”. This is regarded as the first official meeting between the
people of Torydain and
the people of Quentas.

Torydain participated in the War of the Red Waters from 2254 to 2264. Despite being heavily
outnumbered and surrounded, the islanders successfully defended their homeland for ten years
straight, not letting the enemy step foot on the island even once.

## Geography

The lands of Torydain are
significantly fertile, with considerable farmable land. The island is covered
in vast forests and fields of grass, with multiple streams flowing throughout.
The one and only river is the Sapphire River, originating from the Boiling Sea
and ultimately flowing inland, forming Lake Vrynce. Most of the island is covered in hills
and mountains; the tallest  being Mt. Greenpike

## Military

The people of Torydain are capable fighters, despite preferring to avoid
battles.

The forces of Torydain are
very similar to the forces of Badger Island in function and tactics. A large,
well armed, well trained group known as the Island Guard, charged
with the islands coastal defenses, make up the bulk of the islands armed forces.However, unlike the shoreswords of Badger Island, this is a standing
force,
rather than a
group that is called to action when needed. They wield swords, spears, axes and
maces, but like the shoreswords specialize in using bows and heavy weapons, such as catapults, ballista's
and trebuchets
to
fight of enemy vessels.

The most well known of this forces battles
took place during King Renyel’s war
on Terronem.
Throughout the entirety of the war, the guard successfully defended their homeland from
over thirty
invasion
attempts from Renyel’s
forces.

The island also possesses a reserve force
of soldiers.

The Torydain Fleet is a two hundred strong
fleet of ships. They are owned by the Torydain Throne and are
used at his/her disposal.

Armour is typically top quality plate armour
atop padded clothing and chainmail.
Tar Ban-Sho

Tar Ban-Sho attending a GC summon on Economic Developments in Satellite States

Tar Ban-Sho is a prominent member of the UDPRK's Standing Politburo. He has gained a reputation among colleges as a fiery diplomat and strategist. His characterization is that of a bombastic and extravagant diplomat but with a underlying allure of fierce pragmatism and economic 'miserdom'.

## Early Life

Tar Ban-Sho was born on the 21st October 1925, making him the eldest member of the standing Politburo. Tar was born in the Huayuan Residential District in the People's Republic of China also making him the only foreign born member of the Standing Politburo. However, his father and mother were both high ranking Korean members of the Chinese embassy. His early life was filled with a highly supervised education and rigorous repetitution of the Korean lifestyle. In 1950 the Tan's family returned to Korea, this was a result of Tan's father getting a position in the Korean Workers Revolutionary Party's Central Committee as an Embassy Representative.

### Tar Ban-Sho's career

Tar Ban-Sho, being 24 at this time Tar Ban-Sho began his career in the Meritocratic Federal Reserve of the Korean People (largest bank in Pyongyang). By 1964 he had become its Director.

1976 would see Tar make his move towards a political life as he had bought his position as one of the 100 members of the allowed 'Oligarchy' in the Korean Workers Revolutionary Party's Central Committee, as subscribed in the United Democratic People's Republic of Korea Constitution.

#### Tar Ban-Sho's Diplomacy

Known internationally for his extravagant style of diplomacy, Tar usually can be seen to act as if in a way to psychologically manipulate his 'opponents' this he learned via regarding the political style of such diplomats as Jiang Zemin. His reputation for being a 'miser' subsequently gains him a strong negotiating position when it comes to foreign economic diplomacy. Tar's outlandish style and behavior consists of removing his shoes at formal events, laughing in a over dramatized way and making off-hand usually rude, outspoken or unfiltered comments. One example of this was at the GC in 1991 when Tar Ban-Sho began to (in a jester fashion) chase a young female journalist around the gallery shouting *"my pockets are deep and you remind me of a girl I fancied in school".*

Crooked Steps

**Crooked Steps** is the eighth episode of the third season of Syfy's *Van Helsing* and the thirty-fourth episode of the series overall.

## Synopsis

Vanessa and Scarlett find the Third Elder on a distant island. Vanessa makes a choice for her path forward and Scarlett disagrees.

## Plot

Following their departure from San Francisco, the sisters Van Helsing are off on a bit
of a post-apocalyptic road trip, searching for the Third Vampire Elder. It’s not
without its vampire attacks along the way, of course, but for possibly the first time
ever, it proves to be a benefit, as the blood spattered during the fight reveals a map
which takes them directly to a quaint little island with a less-than-quaint vampire
locked beneath its picturesque beaches.

This is no ordinary vampire elder, though. This one, in all his Victorian era Lestat
trappings, is actually Jacob Van Helsing, brother to their ancestor Abraham. Jacob
was there, he says, the day Abraham fought the Dark One and plunged into Hell or
some such dramatics. He, meanwhile, gave into the darkness inside him and was
turned.

He agrees to let his many-great nieces dispatch him -- after showing them the
location of a mysterious labyrinth -- if they agree to let him out, but that deal quickly
changes as the moments drag on. First he asks to be turned, then to be fed. When
Vanessa allows him to feed on her blood he reveals to her that history has a way of
repeating itself, and that it seems to be doing just that with the two of them. Vanessa
seems very much to be giving into the vampiric nature within her, just like Jacob.
And just like with him and Abraham, only one of the siblings will likely make it out
of the coming ordeal alive.

Vanessa is shaken up by this news and allows Jacob to escape, then uses the
impending chase to steal the collected totems from Scarlett. Jacob, meanwhile, fills
Scarlett in on the “only one can survive” deal before kicking the crap out of her and
leaving her in a clearing.

When the sisters head to the beach to stop him leaving the island, Jacob jumps
Vanessa, biting her and telling her to return to the old asylum and “rule with them.”
Vanessa answers by biting him so hard she literally rips his throat out and then
simultaneously punches him while eviscerating him, because just one isn’t enough.
Scarlett is horrified to see her sister changing into the thing they have spent so long
fighting, but that pales in comparison to the way Vanessa feels about the possibility
of Scarlett dying during the conflict, so in natural sister fashion, she tricks Scarlett
into leaving the beach just long enough to steal the boat and head back to the
mainland along.

Scarlett is not pleased.

Max claims he has spies in Blak-Tek that’ll tell him that Jolene’s story is bullshit. However, he can’t make contact with them. Axel arrives with his liquor soon thereafter. Max asks Axel about Denver, and he tells Max that Blak-Tek wiped it out. Max starts to suspect that Axel and Jolene know each other. He then hears the bomb ticking. Upon discovering the bomb, he turns to Axel, but before he can react, Jolene shoots him in the head. Max’s office then blows up As Axel and Jolene come running out. Axel and Flesh get in the front of the truck and Jeremy, Jolene, Jennifer, and Owen get in the back. However, Max, who has healed almost completely of his wounds, grabs Owen and Jennifer and drives off. Continue Reading Here....

Max holds a gun to her head, but he can’t kill her because he needs her alive. Max, Jennifer, and Owen pull up to a boarded up house where they will rest for the night. Owen sneaks up to Max while he sleeps, grabs his gun and shoots him in the neck. He then tells Jennifer to retrieve Owen so they can leave. The following morning, Max shoots at Flesh and Axel with a sniper rifle as they approach the house. He shoots Axel in chest and then the head. Max then takes Jennifer and Owen to Matty’s. Matty can supply Max with blood to pay the toll to get past the feeders on the mountains. Max offers Jennifer to Matty in exchange for blood.
