To the Denizens of Revendreth,
I know we have all been uprooted from the recent civil war and a shift in the balance of the Shadowlands and that times appear uncertain. I have written to you all to inform you my Courtâs doors are always open, offering aid to those affected by these trying times. Here at House Krolock, you can expect a place to settle down and start a new life, sanctuary for you and certainty for your family. I can assure you I am a most generous master, no matter if you are a Dredger, Stoneborn or even a fellow Venthyr you will not be turned away.
At House Krolock we have not forgotten our most sacred and treasured ways, our honourable cause the atoning of souls, even the most sin ridden souls deserve that chance at redemption. Too long has our charge been changed and twisted, but now we will restore our sacred right to its former glory, far from the twisted rituals these other âVenthyrâ believed to be just.
For any residents amongst you are interested in the offer of joining our House, do not hesitate coming forward to the Castle personally, our Door Keeper will be there to greet you.
We wait with anticipation to see the true Venthyr ways once again reign in this now forsaken land.
Count Valmis Krolock.
In Character Information:
History:
One of many noble houses that make a living within the Castle District lays House Krolock lead currently by Count Valmis and his Son Xalaeth. There are rumours around Revendreth about the Castles mixed loyalties some to the Rebellion while the Count maintains to be fiercely loyal to the Sire. Count Krolock is known to rule with an iron fist as has been known as a Tyrant Leader, his own son is softer in nature but does not challenge his fathersâ rule however there is always a risk that this might change. It is believed that the castle will welcome to anyone the Castle with open arms however this is only a lie set in place by the Count to make people believe that they are safe.
However, it can be found that the Castle is keeping to some of its promises redeeming lost souls giving them the chance to join within their own ranks, making deals with Brokers and the shadier members of society to ensure their House remains âon topâ. More public events are held within the house to expand their influence around the Shadowlands and influence these mortals which now walk in their lands filling their own sin stones so they may harvest upon them later. Rumours may have you believe they are a cult in nature religiously following their fallen masters wishes however while at part this may be true there are also kinder souls which reside in the Castle walls that simply just want to feel at home in Revendrethâs broken state.

If you are unsure of anything with a person such as pro-nouns please ask do not assume.
Rules:
- You need to be able to keep IC and OOC separate. Our concept is designed around the idea of generating conflict, which often leads to IC drama - and in the wrong hands, IC drama often turns into OOC drama. Are you able to keep the two separate and keep in mind that we do not hate you OOC just because your character may be punished for a mistake?
- No metagaming, no ERPâing (Anyone found in Goldshire will be instantly removed from the guild), no power/God emoting, Chaste/lustful bar in the trp. etc.
- You are a representative of the guild all the time that our name sits above your head. Please do not give us a bad name in forums, trade chat and in all interactions.
- Although as a Venthyr based guild we may deal with souls and such that have sensitive topics this does not by any means suggest that we take this lightly and will not tolerate jokes or making fun of the topics.
- If you wish to come in as a soul being atoned, please be aware you will be beat down and abused as you see the souls in the atonement rituals do not take this personally.
Recruitment:
