The Order of the Black Dragon, Sign-Up Thread Options

[Zalphon]

Ten years after the Oblivion Crisis...

The Empire was left weak by the Daedric Invasion. A perfect opportunity for the Order of the Black Dragon to strike. The Order of the Black Dragon is a guild of necromancers, trained in necromancy and physical combat. They're shadow knights. The Order of the Black Dragon is dedicated to conquering Tamriel and rising the slaughtered as slaves.

They're led by a lich who wears a suit of Enchanted Daedric Armor. They don't follow Mannimarco or anyone who does. They seek to conquer Tamriel, because the leader of the Order of the Black Dragon believes that if he can gain control, he can bring back order to the chaotic, distraught civilization.

The Order of the Black Dragon is a sect of previous Worm Anchorites who broke off and found a lich who's name is secret. The Lich taught them the ways of the Shadow Knight and the code they strictly follow. For years they've plotted to take over, but never been given the most perfect opportunity. Armies of the living dead are the grunts of the Order of the Black Dragon.

They've attacked all of Tamriel, including Cyrodiil...

Provinces

High Rock - The undead forces have torn High Rock apart. The undead walk through the ravaged lands. The only survivors are those in hiding, using magical means. Daggerfall City is controlled by one of the Lich's Lieutenants, a necromancer named, "Alu'Kar." He currently controls the Bloodworm Helm.

Hammerfell - High Rock and Hammerfell are very similar in the ways the undead have treated it. The city of Sentinel is in control of King Helseth Hlaalu, a traitor who joined the Order of the Black Dragon. He is currently in control of the Necromancer's Amulet.

Skyrim - The Nordic North has been controlled by the frozen corpses. Nordic Zombies roam the lands searching for survivals. The only safe-haven in all of Skyrim is Winter-Hold. The main leader of the Order of the Black Dragon in Skyrim is a khajiit named, "Ajira." She is in possesion of the Warlock's Ring and the Staff of Magnus.

Morrowind - It has been completely untouched by the dead. The Temple has kept any attempts at bay. And some suspect the Telvanni Wizard-Lords are involved and don't want their homes endangered.

Black Marsh - The swamps of the Black Marsh are constantly patrolled by Argonian Deathstalkers, undead argonians trained in the use of spears and light armor. The main leader in the Black Marsh is located in Lilmoth and is named, "Master Aryon" he is a House Telvanni Master and a powerful Necromancer.

Elsweyr - The deserts of the khajiit are hunted by mummified khajiiti. Armed with daggers and other weapons, the undead khajiit stalk their final prey in the scorching sands. The main leader in Elsweyr is in Riverhold and is named, "Skink-In-Tree's-Shade" a former Mage's Guild member, like Ajira.

Valenwood - The Bosmer have been attacked by many undead, but no attempts have been successful. They shoot their bows first and ask questions later. Valenwood is a dangerous place to be.

The Summerset Isles - The Isles have lost all contact with Tamriel. Some say the undead reached them, others say they're in on the whole thing. Nobody is quite sure.

Cyrodiil - Cyrodiil is a wasteland, except for the Imperial City. Shadow Knights walk through freely with their armies of the living dead. The Imperial City is the last safe-haven in Cyrodiil, and only Ocato, the Elder Council, his royal guard, the Champion of Cyrodiil, and a few trusted others are allowed inside. The commander here is a bosmer named, "Erthor." He is a former Mage's Guild member, and is very powerful in necromancy.
