In 1079 AE, the White Mantle, now led by Confessor Isaiah and the inquisitors, hired brigands to help control the population of Kryta with a grip of fear and power. In 1078 AE, the Shining Blade sought the help of the Asura to find weapons to give them the upper hand in the war, but instead become embroiled in the battle against the Great Destroyer. Although the conflict is mainly between the Shining Blade and White Mantle, there are various other warlords who have been attempting to seize control themselves. Since then, Kryta had been plunged into an all out civil war.

The White Mantle themselves had lost their leader, Confessor Dorian, along with their Inner Council, loosening the White Mantle's grip over Kryta. Over time, their efforts gained the support of the Shining Blade and by the end of the Flameseeker Prophecies' fulfillment, the White Mantle's gods have been exposed as the Mursaat and were nearly brought to extinction. In 1072 AE, Watchman Arad found that the king sired an illegitimate child who became a priestess at the Temple of the Ages, Salma, and persuaded her to claim the throne. When people began to find this out, the Shining Blade was formed as a rebellious group intent on taking down the corrupted organization. Over the years, the White Mantle became more and more ruthless, forcing poverty on those not of their order and sacrificing the Chosen on the bloodstone in the Maguuma Jungle for their Unseen Lords. Shortly after that point, Saul D'Alessio founded the White Mantle in the name of his new-found gods, the Unseen Ones in order to bring peace to Kryta and led his nation to victory against the Charr at the cost of his own life, beginning years of White Mantle's rule in Kryta. During the Charr invasion, King Jadon, the then Krytan king, fled the throne and left Kryta leaderless and vulnerable. The Krytan civil war lasted from 1072 AE until 1079 AE between the White Mantle and the Shining Blade. Not at all convinced by the hat, but I suppose heavy armour could link with it for a musketeer vibe? Perhaps if her hair was a more boring golden blonde to link with the yellow of the banner and swords? Screenshots and presentation are perfect as vgomes said.Spoiler alert: The following text contains spoilers relating to the story of Guild Wars Prophecies, Guild Wars Eye of the North, and Guild Wars Beyond. To me the maroon of the eerie purple clashes slightly with the bluer violite but that's a very minor thing. I think it's very effective and I like the way the kneecaps on the greaves match the shoulders. Hmm, love the general amour combination linking to the swords and the banner. I think I am finding out lately that I am not really a fan of those shoulder pieces.idk why, tastes :D nevertheless, really like the screenshots and the look overall, take my gold! That's one very nice presentation, your posts improved in a short time :D I find the mixture of themes oddly fullfilling, and I love how you justified it in your description! :) I absolutely love the dye pattern you picked, fitting for a shinning blade agent (maybe a bit more yellow/goldish colour would have been a plus) but nevertheless I really like it.
