Our Founders

Lord Aonghus our founding father

Lady Elana, his faithful bride

Master Locksmith Rhozevy

"The Founders"
by Roelaren Stormshadow

"Twelve gathered together in the year of 5097
During the month of Lumnea
Wanting to create a place teaching Honor, Duty and Loyalty
Using example to show the way"

""They heralded from three houses
The Silver Gryphons, House Phoenix and Heldon Hall
Wishing to have a group of friends that stood
For the Chivalric values that bound them all.""

""Lord Aonghus MacGreaghor our Founding Father
And the first LP, standing tall, he was strong and bold
Being honorable, loyal and duty bound
He taught us how to live the Code""

""His mighty blade Baby was always on his shoulder
His love, his wife, Lady Elana was always at his side
A true Knight, merciful and kind, no one could be bolder
In battles he and baby could always turn the tide""

"Lady Elana, loyal, a healer of great renown throughout the lands
She was a kind and gentle soul,"
"She took in stride all that life demands
But the lose of Sir Aonghus on that fateful nite
Led her to great despair, and of her, it took its toll.""

"Lord Truekillr Strickulus a respected priest of great renown
His early path had been dark and rocky, the Empire took his all
But finding Lady Lorminstra's light had turned his life around
In House Onoir then he became the first Lord Seneschal.""

""Lord Thrudh and Lady Zyanna warriors brave and true
He, outgoing, friendly and gentle, but in battle, he was fierce
She, a mystery, and with her wit, did him slew
But, due to true love for him, her heart did bear his pierce.""

""Lord Cynic a priest of Voln, a man of mystery
   Alas not much of him is known
And all to soon he is gone
Two years later we see Lord Cynic with Lady Aurla
   And the rest ye see is history""

""Lord Rhozevy Zuyclik master lockpick and Fist of Voln
Fought unarmed against the undead horde"
"Relentlessly he fought on and on
   Seeking to honor Lord Voln as his only reward""

""Lord Ravenwulf D'helgrin
Quiet, direct and soft spoken A most honorable and humble monk
   A howling wolf tattooed upon his arm
He was our first Lord Chamberlain
The giantkin intercessor sturdy as a trunk""

""Lord Dragonshield and Lady Ingrid
He a member and she the leader of Heldon Hall
Faithful friends and companions to one and all
We were saddened they had to leave like they did
But duties at Heldon Hall to them did call"

""Lady Karissa a warrior of great promise and skil
A former squire of Sir Aonghus, she was humble and true
His death leaves her saddened and still
She leaves us for the human realm, her where abouts we have nae a clue""

""Lord Morgiest Frostgiant born into the Wsalamir Clan
Orphaned at 5 and raised in Ice Mule trace by the sheriff and his wife
   Invited into Voln at 15 years and then off to Landing for many more years"
"A Warrior outstanding he becomes, master of Voln and follower of Kai
Pledged to defend Voln in Onoir's name even if he should die""

"Two founders at times roam the lands today
Lord Truekillr, and Lord Ravenwulf
They keep watch 'or us all, I say
   Listening here, talking there, knowing knowing
   That House Onoir stands strong as always.""

Founding of Onoir Why

by Lady Roelaren

Recite I want to thank all of ye for being here tonight to help us celebrate the 23rd anniveray of the starting of House Daingneach Onoir
Recite Many of us have been members of this family for a lot of years, some not so many. Many of us know a lot about the founders and the reason for our house, but I feel our new members do not.
Recite I want to talk a bit about the founding of Onoir, the why of it, the reason for it, and the founders.
Recite We have three books in our library about the early years of Onoir and also a lecture given by Sir Morgiest on the Founding of Onoir. I have been working on another book but the progress has been slow.
Recite I am pulling this information from several documents
Recite About two months prior to the actual founding of House Onoir, twelve gathered together. The founders hearld from House Phoenix, The Silver Gryphons, Heldan Hall. Their names were: Lord Aonghus our founding father, Lady Elana, his faithful bride, Lord Truekillr, Lord Thrudh and Lady Zyanna,, Lord Cynric, Master Locksmith Rhozevy, Lord Ravenwulf , Lord Dragonshield, Lady Ingrid, Lady Karissa, and Lord Morgiest.
recite These men and women gathered so they could help folks in a better, diffent way. As sir Morgiest said, : They stated the House purpose was, teaching honor, and leading by example.
Recite in another entry Morgiest deeply says, "What ah truely wished tae speak on, is whats nae in our library."Exactly what we were thinkin when we founded Onoir.
Morgiest deeply says, "Ah were approached by Lord Aonghus, some few months afore bout formin a new order within the landin."
, "He and I, along with several other a the original founders, as well as some whom did nae decide tae join us, spoke fer some 3-4 months bout formin this new group.">
"We wished tae hae a group, that stood fer the chivalric values all of us allready held.">
, "We wanted this group, as a means of organizin a better means tae teach those who wished tae listen, bout chivalry, and what it means tae follow a code of chivalry.", "Our original bylaws reflected that."
Morgiest deeply says, "We were teachers." "In the early days.."
, "Ye must recall this was some round a year afore anyun had e'en heard a the "mentors"."
>"Our members used tae take turns, sittin round bout the alley where new folks entered the lands."
>, "And offerin our services tae those freshly arrived."
Morgiest deeply says, "We did this without bias, and would speak and aid any that wished tae speak tae us.
"Balantine quietly says, "World was quite different back then, aye."
>Morgiest deeply says, "Some o our first squires were found in this manner.

Recite then Sir Morgiest goes on to tell about the other Lord Paldins and how the house branched out into other things like we do now.
Recite I would suggest that you read the works that are in the Library on the History of Onoir. I want to recite a poem I wrote about the founders. Then I would like Lord Balantine to recite his poem about our LPs
Recite if time permits I want to recite a poem by one of our Bards Kello. He has left the lands but his music lives on. His words bring music to your ears and a song to your heart.
