Leacianan Crownsguard

Each of the three triarchs of Leacianus has four guards to their name. Two are masters of the Breath, and two are masters of War Magic. Each of these guards are handpicked by those they protect, often coming from noble houses or lineages of great warriors. Sometimes they may just be soldiers with great deeds of valour shown in times of strife.

The guards of Ferendir and Valius have been in their positions for hundreds of years, and as such are the most experienced of them all. Though those picked by Artorian should not be underestimated either, for though they have served on the Crownsguard for a blink of time compared to their counterparts, they have all seen combat in the Liturium War, something that their counterparts have been kept from for the war’s duration. The four chosen by Artorian all volunteered to fight, and die for their Divine Ruler on the war’s front lines. Artorian felt as though they were better suited there than by his side, for he felt he could defend himself if needed. So against the word of his advisors and co-rulers, his Crownsguard fought and bled alongside the common soldier in many battles.

But now at the war’s conclusion they have returned to Nirloom. They know a doomed fate awaits them, but they would see it through to die with purpose as they were tasked when chosen. To die in defense of their divine ruler would be a greater death than in a volley of arrows or gunfire in a losing battle. Woe to those who might cross any of the Crownsguard, for their skill is immeasurable and their determination unwavering.
