Manifesto

For many millennia there have been tales of an ancient Order of magicians that resides in the mystical forests of Crystalmir Lake. The locals from the region refer to these mysterious magi as the Arcanes. A group dedicated to the study and mastery of the magicks.

The Arcanes have a long and tumultuous history. Centuries of corruption and treachery crippled the Order and brought it close to extinction. Those that dared travel into the forests during those dark times swore that they could smell the foul odour of Balzhur's breath lurking in the air.

In more recent times, life seems to have returned to the area surrounding Crystalmir Lake. New stories are being told of a group of necromancers from the Clan Ombra who have defected from the shadowy path to rebuild the ancient Order of Arcanes.

Information

The Order of Arcanes is one of the oldest organisations in the Realms of Despair. Between 1995 and 1996, the Arcanes were a PKill clan. At the end of the Age of the Old Clans the Clan Arcanes restructured itself into an Order.

Between February and March 2018, Daedalas, Incendi and Otari took over as the leaders of the Order of Arcanes. This change has injected life back into the organisation. Since that change in leadership, the Order of Aranes has:

• forged an alliance with the Clan Ombra;
• had its headquarters completely rebuilt and modernised;
• abolished the redundant Council of Light, Scouts and Elders;
• created a new Council of Shadows;
• built up a enviable donations cache for members of the Order;
• recruited a group of new and experienced players;
• started questing heavily; and
• opened its doors to the vampire class.

The current leadership team of the Order anticipate that, by the middle of 2019, the Order of Arcanes will be the most powerful, and formidable organisation in the Realms of Despair.
