Guild History

The Guild of the Midnight Reveries was once the envy of much of Tyria. A powerful and influential guild whose exploits approached legend as their ranks were swelled with the heroes of the age. As puissant and powerful as they were exclusive and obfuscant, the guild kept its lore and ritual close. Jealously guarding their secrets, they admitted only those most worthy into their closed rank. As their ambition swelled, the guild constructed a prophesied and mighty Tower. With their fortification, a community established. What once were camp followers and entourage became the village of Revelmore, celebrating and supporting the heroes that gave them succor and protection from the evils of the world. In time, as other races swelled their rank further with their best and brightest, a walled keep grew around the tower.
As the guild’s fortification swelled, so too Revelmore.

Now a true Township, the largesse and patronage of the heroes of Midnight enabled their expansion. No more, the rude muddy street and thatched roof. Now, Revelmore sported cobbled passages, beer gardens, smithies and glaziers. Even an outdoor theater with marble columns and vined trellises to soothe the spirit of the weary hero while entertaining him with acted out tales of his bold and clever fellows. At the height of their power and sublime standard, the Midnight Reveries had but one place left to go.

The siege came without warning. The assault masked by howling storm wind and massive thunders. As Revelmore and the Tower battened their windows, and made secure their loved ones against the great storm, evil stirred in once noble Orr. The great and terrible Zhaitan, called the “End of Glory” by the guild’s soothsayers, had taken notice of their glory. As the hurricane lashed their walls, the lurching horde came to infest Revelmore and the keep. Great coral-encrusted boulders were launched from dripping siege engines to batter the Tower. Corroded iron cannon fired rusted grape to splinter and smash through wooden walls. And over all, the hollow, echoing war cry of Zhaitan’s drowned minions mingled with the wailing winds as the townsfolk were put to jagged sword and the stinking embrace of salted flesh and jagged teeth.

As the storm howled its fury and unnatural lightnings danced in the swirling vortex above, the guild’s mightiest spent their lives in vainglorious droves against the tireless undead assault. Few escaped that dreadful night intact. Scarred and broken in flesh or spirit they fled to take shelter where they could. At the grisly vapid dawn the guild was broken. Revelmore was destroyed, it’s proud streets walked by abomination and nightmare. Only the Tower still stands, its glory betrayed by the gaping holes and silent battlement. The ruins brood quietly, waiting for reclamation and the promise of redemption from the salted fields and ruined walls of the keep below.

Survived and championed by the heirs of the former Lord of the Tower, the guild heals, and begins to rebuild. New heroes are called to wear the colors and crest. Fresh blood and sharp minds to make anew the legend lost to the End of Glory. Commander Vulknot Doomhammer, Captain Xary Adonis and the Wardens seeks brave new heroes to stand with them. The tale of the Midnight Reveries now begins a new chapter. To resurrect their past glory, to seek greater adventure, and in the end to protect Tyria and her people from all foes, dragons or not! Stand with the Reveries, and write your name in the immutable pages of myth and legend.
