Sethyk The Great



Sethyk The Great was a warrior who fought as the Red Prophet of Lifegiver during the First Era of Man. Some say that Sethyk fought with the grace of the Gods, especially that of Lifegiver, who was departing from Terrabryn to walk the Grey Beyond. To this day, Sethyk is highly celebrated throughout the Kingdom of the Rhine.

Red Emblem, an estate of Blythgate is named in memory of Sethyk. The family of the estate claim to be descendants of the legendary great.

Sethyk wrote the Knights' Regulus Code of Honor, together with the scholars and philosophers that joined the Knights' Regulus after his victory at Armus. It is a sacred tradition that continues today.

Birth
Sethyk Garland Rite was born in Blythgate, Regnum Solar in 1E 349. Throughout his childhood, Sethyk watched as many of his people were taken from the peaceful city and forced to join the Army of Armus, dying on the battlefield. One day, he gathered his people and rose up against the Throne, under the apparent command of God.

Siege of Armus
The Siege of Armus was a blight on the past of the Rhine Kingdom that royal scholars attempt to destroy. Along with hundreds of gathered vanguard warriors, Sethyk The Great marched upon Castle Rhineburg and attempted to usurp the power of the Throne. He broke past the gates, slaughtered all opposition without mercy, and assassinated the magnate. A new magnate was elected, and Sethyk founded the Knights' Regulus. Sethyk wore his iconic red mane battle armor and emblem during this battle.

Death
Sethyk The Great was murdered at nightfall by assassins of the Order of the Ravens. He was asleep in his Rhineburg manor, his wife and children unaware of the intrusion.

Legacy
Sethyk The Great has had statues and monuments erected in his memory. The Red Prophets of Lifegiver, a cult dedicated to communicating with the Gods, are descended from Sethyk vanguards.
