"The Order of Embers was born anew. We could sense it, feel it in our bones. We sat in silence as if time itself had stopped. An eerie fog arose and from within we could hear the voice of our Mother in distress. Our hut near Arom’s Stand was barely visible in the thickening mist. Mother’s voice grew louder: “Flee… FLEE!”. We knew what the Order was capable of, what weapons they had against us, how easily they could expose us. Sister Etnah started cackling, driven mad by her greed for power she had no realisation of the present. She did not even bother to disguise herself anymore.
We were cowards. Our disguise allowed us to escape the warzone our homeland would become. Sister Etnah was left behind as we boarded a ship to the mainland for we must do everything to ensure our Coven will be preserved. We live amongst foreigners now, hiding in plain sight. Desperate to survive and maintain our ways. In time they will see… They lack vision. Death is an inevitable force that stalks you at every turn."
CASTAVET COVEN
The Castavet Coven is a new roleplay guild based on the Heartsbane Coven of Drustvar. When the Order of Embers returned, a coward Matron of the Coven, Kadiya Castavet, took it upon herself to fool her witches. Fearing the very force of death they wield and knowing Drustvar would indeed be the death of them, they fled to the Eastern Kingdoms. Known for their convincing disguises, the Witches now live amongst the mainlanders.
Purpose
The purpose of the guild is to offer a roleplay environment for those who are interested in Heartsbane Witches and their culture. Eerie and misterious roleplay in combination with some wicked fun and chaos. The guild offers a main antagonist for the ‘good guy’-guilds in the Eastern Kingdoms as they will be actively trying to make the life of every living being a nightmare. This will be done with utmost secrecy in order to keep a low profile.
We understand that our IC actions will have consequences and that people may start hunting us down, we shall in such cases adjust our roleplay accordingly. We are in no way ‘powerful’, on the contrary. We are the only ones of our kind in a foreign land.
Guild ranks
Matriarch
The leader of the Castavet Coven, a stranded ‘expeditionary force’ of the Heartsbane Coven. The Matriarch is the Matron Mother and is considered the most powerful witch of her entourage. Should she be defeated by another, the new Witch will claim her title.Matron
The most powerful witches of the Coven slit their own throat to ‘ascend’. They become a more powerful version of themselves as they shed their skin. A Matron in its true form resembles a banshee and is very vulnerable to silver and alchemical fire.Elder
The Elders are the more seasoned witches of the Coven. Many aspiring witches turn to them for guidance. An Elder may or may not ascend to become a Matron, but are valued more for their wisdom rather than their power.Sister
A witch of the Coven will always be addressed as ‘Sister’. Most witches of the Coven hold this title. It means they were put through a lengthy trial period and by this time, their bodies are twisted by the magic they wield. In their true form, they are referred to as “Drustvar Hags”.Acolyte
Those who are new to the ancient Drust death magic and seek to learn the ways of the Heartsbane Coven. An acolyte will remain a student until her body has been contorted by the magic she learned to wield.Bewitched
The misfortunate souls who have been bewitched by the Coven and have been forced into servitude. These beings under thraldom are either cursed or are being manipulated to do the Coven’s bidding.
Who can join?
The guild is open to female humans and worgen (in their human form). Also Kul Tirans will be able to join once the race becomes available.
In time, desperate times may call for desperate measures and the Coven may open its doors to individuals of other races who want to learn the way of the Heartsbane. These individuals would be put through a lengthy trial period and wouldn’t gain the trust of the Coven easily. They would be rare exceptions.
The Bewitched rank is an exception to this rule. Here you may find individuals of any gender, race, profession…
