The Battlehorn Order

## History

During the Rule of Reman II, a Mage began a Crisis later to be known as the Frostmarch. Due to the Endagerment of the Empire, Reman II called upon a group of Elite Mercenaries known as the Hosts of the Horn, who originated in Hammerfell.

Led by Reyenirus Battlehorn, the Regiment went about solving the Frostmarch crisis, while crafting Frostbane and founding the future Build site of Battlehorn Castle, Camp Horn.

Reyenirus Battlehorn defeated the Mage and became Heroes of the Empire. Although Reyenirus disliked Reman II for his Powerhungry Ways, he still claimed that it was all in the service of the New Empire.

Reman II granted the Hosts of the Horn the Concession of Lainlyn to rule over due to their service during the Crisis.

     Sometime after the Death of Reyenirus Battlehorn, through the Succession of Lords, Baron Shrike Battlehorn began his Tyrannical reign over the Concession of Lainlyn, and turned the Hosts of the Horn into a military group for his new Regime. Baron Shrike Battlehorn's younger Brother, Lord Kain Battlehorn began a rebellion against his Tyrant Older Brother.

Lord Kain Battlehorn's rebellion against Baron Shrike Battlehorn failed, and Lord Kain was slain by Shrike in battle. What remained of Lord Kain's "Knights of the True Horn" fled to Cyrodiil, where they unveiled the ruins of Camp Horn.

What remained of the Knights of the True Horn began to construct their new Castle in-place of the old Camp Horn.

During the Reign of Uriel Septim VII, the Battlehorn Order was offered Stewardship under the Empire, alongside The Blades. The Lord of the time Graciously accepted, due to the fact that Uriel Septim VII was a firm believer in the Frostmarch and wanted to take steps to prevent it from happening again. Sometime during this event, Battlehorn Castle was completed.

In the year 3E 433, the Battlehorn Order was Decimated by Marauders who had secretly sworn allegience to the Frostcrag Imperium. Luckily, the Hero of Kvatch arrived and Slew the Marauders in time to save the Order from Certain doom. Lord Kelyvn was killed in the fighting however, and the Order became confused on how to proceed with a lack of Leadership. The Closest descendent to the Battlehorn Line succeeded Lord Kelyvn as Lord of the Battlehorn Order.

The Hero of Kvatch purchased the Land Fief for Battlehorn Castle soon after lifting the Siege, and began helping the Decimated Order rebuild, even going so far as to add a Dwemer Forge to the Smithing Area, and clear out several collapsed Caverns.

During the renovation of the Battlehorn Castle Grotto, the Hero of Kvatch discovered that a Spirit Lich Necromancer named Arielle Jurard had attempted, and failed to ressurect Lord Kain Battlehorn from his tomb, in hopes of turning him into a Puppet leader on behalf of Mannimarco and the Order of the Black Worm. The Hero of Kvatch brought an end to this scheme by slaying both Arielle Jurard and the Failed Skeletal Warrior of Lord Kain.

During the Great War, Battlehorn Warriors assissted the  Imperial Legion in fighting the Third Aldmeri Dominion and preformed at Stellar rates. However, their Battle prowess was not enough to stop Emperor Titus Mede II from signing the White-Gold Concordat. The White-Gold Concordat decreed that all Major institutions of the Empire were to be Disbanded, including the Battlehorn Order.

The Battlehorn Order regarded Titus Mede II as a traitor to the Empire for signing such a Ludicrous Concordat, as did not agree to the terms of the White-Gold Concordat. The Battlehorn Order, along withThe Blades were besieged by Mede-Loyal and Dominion Troops. The Siege lasted four Months, before they were overrun and destroyed. Tavar Battlehorn was killed in battle while allowing his Son (The only Surviving Heir to the Battlehorn Throne) Tyrellius Battlehorn to escape through the Grotto.

## Ranking

The Battlehorn order had a simple, yet elaborative Chain of command, that goes as follows:

Lord

Knight of The True Horn

Battlehorn Man-at-arms

Warrior Apprentice

Cadet

Although short, the Rankings allowed for little conflict between combating members of the Order. The Smith was a member of the Man-At-Arms rank, andBaron Shrike only had the Baron Title due to his Ownership of the Concession of Lainlyn.

## Legacy

The Battlehorn Order was fractured after the sieges by the Traitorous Mede and Dominion Troops. With no safehavens to Regroup, the Battlehorn Warriors disbanded. They are hunted with equal discretion as The Blades, and most Ex-Members either joined Ryle Land Owners as Escort Guards, or simply retired to live out the rest of their days in peace. The Thalmor have banned mention of them.
