## History

The Order has split several times due to demand of their services, much of the original Silver Order has been split into Schools that act almost as their own organisation.

The idea behind the Silver Order was first conceived by Dorian Isrelv in collusion with a few noblemen and women. After the Starfall Crisis, monster attacks and sighting increased several times over. Death tolls were increasing and the initiative was put in place to prevent it. It began as the Silver Hand, in Heathmoor a group of no more than ten Knights, Soldiers, renounced Criminals and even religious folk. They swept across Heathmoor tracking and slaying monsters, destroying their nests and making sure measures were put in place. It was already known that the Hand needed to expand beyond Heathmoor and so the Original members went travelling, signing up those who wished to help and conscripting some criminals who sought redemption. In a year the Hand became the established Order, one hundred men and women dedicated to the protection of the land from Monsters, and that was in Estivir alone.

The Silverblood Family offered a proposal, they would forge weapons from some of the ore from their mining complex. They found True Silver to be more trouble than was worth as the blades would not hold an edge. But instead in the meteors the Monsters came in, they found another ore, that they named meteorite Silver far strong than it's predecessor the blades forged from this ore became the staple of the Order, they kept one blade for humanoids, carried with them. And another made from Meteorite Silver that was normally kept off the body but still close by.

Over the next few years the Order's territory grew, Forts were built or given, great strongholds that could hold an army let alone train them. Gradually they spread to Mirean, Veles and the Elflands training natives and inducting members of all races to join their cause. Each group, race or individual constantly caused the Order to evolve, new weaponry and specialisations came, such as the Hand-held Crossbow being introduced by the Wood Elves and the use of mounts to aid in tracking and slaying of beasts. Magics and sciences came into play later, enchantments and alchemy were introduced by various people.

### First Schism

**The First Schism** was an event that brought about the first split of the Order, two hunting parties sought a Werewolf for payment, one sought to slay the beast as was their doctrine, the other aimed to break it's curse, this was an uncommon sticking point within the Order as both techniques got the job done but this caused a split in ideology; some Monsters or beasts were not as unthinking as some thought. This brought about the creation of the Cursebreakers School, who aimed to hold less "slayer" values. Instead anything they could stop without blade or bolt they swore to, only drawing their blade when they intended or had no choice but to kill.

### The Reformation

For the sake of unity, many of the top members of the Order sought out the Cursebreakers, and offered them a place within their ranks, with changes to their doctrine, some accepted joining with their brothers and sisters again under new understanding. Some refused the offer, and continued their ways, though over time they stopped their slaying of monsters and focused on breaking magical curses placed upon locations, people or items, this formed their own organisation.
