"The Northold tribe was a proud during the time of the troll wars. Their camp being based at the foot of the mountain ridge that divided the Highlands from the Hinterlands. They were fierce barbarians and heeded Thoradinâs call during the formation of the Arathorian empire, where chieftain taylor, also known as the golden wolf, bent the knee and swore an oath of loyalty.
An oath that has never waivered since.
Throughout the years, barbarism made room for prosperity, trade and civilization.
An ancient tribe became a revered family and House Taylor remained loyal to the kingdom of Stromgarde and the Trollbane line. They took on the Golden wolf as their crest, in honor of the chieftain that had joined the union of Arathor.Many served and for the past three decades, the House of Taylor was led by count Roldan Taylor, a paladin that sought to take Stromgarde into a new era. Proudly defending the ruins against Trolls, Ogres and the Syndicate, along with the other honourable protectors of Arathi."
Only to fall against the Horde during the Fourth War.
After being absent from Stromgarde or Northfold for most of his life, Roldanâs grandson has returned to Stormwind city after hearing about his grandfatherâs demise.
Rhaldor would serve for the remainder of the Fourth War until finally the Alliance had been victorious and Stromgarde began to thrive again.
A community for those who contribute to the Kingdom.
A home for those who had lost it."
Hidden within the safety of the foothills of the northern mountain ridge, dividing the Arathi Highlands from the Hinterlands, lies the County of Northfold. It is a place of Commerce and trade.
To reach Northfold Keep and the surrounding village, one must find the path that leads into the mountains, north of the ruins of Arâgorok. In the surrounding region a lot of ancient Ogre ruins can be found.
The renowned mine can be found on the outskirts of this mountainous region. They delve ores such as copper, iron and coal. The rare veins that are mined here are True Silver and even Mithril.
The grapes of Highvale are transported and cultivated here to produce the famous northern Evershine Wine.
The Northfold Expeditionary is a body, created by Lord Rhaldor Taylor, that seeks to track down and retrieve several items of interest, scattered around all continents of this world and beyond, in order to retrieve all that could benefit the prosperity of Northfold and her villagers. Be it artifacts, valuable treasures or items lost to time.
The expeditionary force consists of Historians, Cartographers, Researchers, Excavators, Archaeologists and Explorers.
The Northfold Defenders are the proud Stromic soldiers that have protected the lands of Northfold, and by extension Stromgarde, for ages.
Recruits can choose to become part of Northfoldâs military wing and rise through the ranks in order to become a true Defender or even a Knight of Northfold.
The military wing also protects the Expeditioners during all expeditions.
Since the dawn of Knighthood, the Knights of Northfold have pledged their swords to the Order of the Golden Wolf, an elite order in service of House Taylor, sworn to protect its Lord and Lady.
Each sworn Wolf is given one of the even pillars that represent house taylor:
Loyalty, Honor, Strength, Faith, Knowledge, Family and Justice.
Once the oath is taken, only the Lord of Northfold is able to relieve a Sworn Wolf of that oath.
