[Faction] Sentinel

[Paragon]

Sentinel Sentinel is a faction of Denvali Nationalists, and is an operation founded by a soldier named Leah in the wake of Denval’s rediscovery by Wright. It is presently growing within the small Kalean settlement. Led by Adarin - a lieutenant of Denval recently risen in power within Sentinel - they are around thirteen strong, following an agenda many Denvali consider xenophobic. It has followed legal forms in attempts to introduce strict immigration laws to Denval, proselytizing a belief that Denval’s roots in the Suvan empire must remain undiluted. Foreign influence is viewed as corruptive and diminishing of the Denval garrison’s survivalist mentality. Whispers have begun that the organization may be taking a less peaceful and socially acceptable turn near the end of Winter, 511 AV, when they began to blame the recent events in the town on the Ethaefal - labeled 'aliens' - and their outsider kin. Sentinel has historically taken no violent or illegal action, and their existence has therefore been tolerated by Captain Astrid and her colleagues thus far. Membership : OOC: Players may join Sentinel if they so wish. As a prerequisite, they must have skill points in Rhetoric, Leadership, and at least fifteen points in a Weapon skill.

Adarin The One-Eyed Revolutionary Sword Expert Battle-Axe Expert Leadership Expert Rhetoric Expert Brawling Expert Languages: Common Born into a nuclear family with a military background, Adarin spent his childhood learning the way of the sword in the Academy, and from his father. Inheriting the patriotism of his parents, he grew to think of Denval as the very blood that coursed through his veins, and focused all his passion on the Mizaharian settlement. Prone to temper tantrums, and angry outbursts, Adarin found it difficult to make friends as a child. His social skills were not helped by a combat training accident, in which he lost an eye by the sword. When he was seventeen, an Inartan criminal who had sought sanctuary in Denval after fleeing Wind Reach, set fire to a house as part of his diversionary tactics. That house was Adarin's. The seventeen year old was out training the evening of the fire, and when he returned his parents were dead. The criminal was caught and tried with Denvali justice, but Adarin's hatred for outsiders began to flourish. Pursuing a nationalist agenda, Adarin continued to train, and joined the ranks of Sentinel. He would never call them friends, but they formed an ideology together nevertheless. Denval was once isolated by the cataclysmic Valterrian, and Adarin would like to see the settlement to return to that state. There have been incidents, where he has been involved in fights with non-Denvali natives, but thus far, nothing has come of them. Now, fifty two, Adarin has begun to bolster support for his cause and due to recent upheaval in Denval has risen in Sentinel rank to full leadership. Miranda Adarin's Right Hand Woman Dagger Expert Poison Expert Leadership Expert Rhetoric Expert Seduction Expert Acting Expert Languages: Common Miranda was born to a single mother in Denval, a woman who made a living through prostitution. It was through her that Miranda learnt to use her feminine charms to her advantage, though she turned her back on her mother with disgust as she grew older, casting her aside and twisting her skills for her own means. Cold of heart, she can be vicious and cruel. She cares little for those around her, only herself, so that she may attain some position of power and luxury. Miranda's father had been an Isur, and had abandoned her mother the moment she was born. This made her feel uncomfortable around outsiders, and the feelings grew into anger as a young adult, ultimately leading her to following Adarin in joining Sentinel and inciting a change.
