10- Holy Legion

Elsewhere on Yarnam

Richard who originally lived on earth was originally a cult leader who later became a catholic priest. Though he enjoyed preaching sermons of God to the masses he often missed the fervent and militant belief that his cult members had in him as if he himself were an extension of God.

The day that Yarnam was formed was the turn-point of Richards life. He knew that Humans would need a light in the dark. So, for his first class he chose Priest which gave a special skill that allowed him to track down believer of the same faith. Other skills offered were purify and create food. Using his first skill He tracked down 35 humans in first week who were all devout believers of God. Upon feeding them and giving sermons he then began talking about God purpose on this world, how God spoke to him when Yarnam was created and told him to increase his believers and to remove the filth that permeated his creations.

Thankfully it did not take much convincing for them to believe his words, thus granting him his first followers who haven’t even chosen their classes yet thinking that this was all a dream.

In the first year Richard continued to collect followers and they created a city that he named Jerusalem, in hopes that a creation of the Holy city would aid his image.

Over time Richard went from priest to swordsman to knight to Holy knight to Acolyte to Paladin. This Class Paladin was his current one and it offered the ability of Holy spells and Mana spells in conjunction with enhanced physical ability. It was this that was the base of his Holy Army, training a select dozen he set them on the path to become paladins just as him. These paladins would later become leaders of their own legion.

It was in the second year that scouts discovered a city forming in the south. After spending time observing them, it was found that they looked like satyrs or half goat half man. Taking the opportunity Richard began sermons in Church about how when God sent them to Yarnam the Devil sent his own kin to destroy the creations of God. This enhanced the hatred of the zealots towards the goat men (Anan). It was a month later that the first Holy legion was created. Led by 12 Paladins and 1 High Paladin (Richard)

Each paladin led a group of 100 warriors. 10 paladins led groups of swordmen, knights and spearmen while 2 paladins led archers and mages. Spread throughout the legion were mana healers. Richard himself led what would in the future become the Holy guard though currently they were only Holy knights.

They marched under the blazing and various Anan spotted them, which ended up with them returning to the city to prepare a defence. Like a Fire the Holy legion attacked the goat men. Like a fire it started slow but the longer it went on the fiercer the legion fought. The Holy legion was inspired even further when looking out and seeing the Chosen of God Richard fighting with the strength of thousands.

It was only a matter of hours before the Legion entered the city. Men were killed and women and children taken as slaves to repent for their sins.

Claiming the City he then began the forced indoctrination of the newly acquired slave Anan. Being pushed from their homes into barns they became the labour of the Holy ones. Richard then took citizens from Jerusalem and placed them in the now Godsfist. The cities were small for time but soon the citizens began giving birth and wandering priests began finding more and more humans wandering around who have still not found a home but were easily turned into zealots of the holy legion.

Forts were built along with fields planted by the many slaves that the holy city had.

It was heading into the 3rd winter on Yarnam that they found their first actual opponent. Minotaurs, sasquatches and goblins united in force and began an effort to keep the Holy legion from expanding its borders. Of course it was only a matter of time before the heathens faced defeat, but currently Richard had to focus on increasing his peoples current strength before they could continue conquering the world in the name of god.
