“Through light and flame, we cleanse the shadow.”
The Silverstar Brotherhood is a militant holy order of zealous crusaders and divine agents, united under a single purpose — to purge corruption and evil wherever it festers. Bound not to any government or faction, the Brotherhood serves only the Archons, answering to celestial will and divine mandate above all mortal authority. To them, neutrality in the face of evil is complicity — and mercy is only given where redemption remains possible.
The Brotherhood was founded millennia ago by a council of Vicars and Monks who received a joint vision from the Archons Torsith, Iltara, Solene, and Kraxius — a divine call to unite holy warriors under one sacred star. From this vision came the Silverstar Creed, a doctrine of eternal vigilance, humility, and righteous strength.
Members of the Brotherhood believe that evil is a cancer upon creation — one that must be burned out, purified, or buried before it spreads. While their faiths differ by Archon, all share the same core tenets:
Protect the innocent.
Destroy corruption.
Serve without fear.
Live by the light, die by the light.
The Brotherhood is divided into Orders, each dedicated to a divine aspect represented by their patron Archon.
Order of the Dawnflame (Solene) – Holy knights and firebringers who embody righteous fury. Their weapons blaze with consecrated flame as they lead the charge into battle.
Order of the Lightfather (Torsith) – Healers, purifiers, and scholars of light who cleanse darkness from both body and soul.
Order of the Psionica (Iltara) – Mystic inquisitors who combine divine faith with psionic mastery, wielding sacred Psi-energy to detect and purge corruption in all forms.
Order of the Justicar (Kraxius) – Paladins and battle monks who uphold divine law and deliver holy judgment. They serve as the executioners of divine justice, guided by unyielding discipline.
Each Order acts independently but answers to the High Council of Silverstars, an assembly of senior Vicars and Monks who interpret divine will through ritual communion and prophecy.
Battle Monks – Agile and disciplined, Battle Monks serve as the Brotherhood’s front-line warriors and inquisitors. Whether through blade or firearm, they are the living extensions of their deity’s will. Many practice sacred martial arts said to channel divine energy through every strike, capable of shattering demonic forms and burning corruption from the flesh.
Vicars – Holy emissaries who wield fragments of divine essence gifted by their patron Archon. Vicars bring light to the wounded and blessings to the faithful. While not warriors by nature, many accompany the Brotherhood’s crusades to heal and purify the afflicted.
Both Monks and Vicars live by strict vows of faith and discipline, often wandering between stars as missionaries, healers, or divine enforcers.
Torsith, the Lightfather – Archon of Light, Life, and Renewal. His followers bring healing and inspiration to the broken, yet his zeal can blind them with holy arrogance.
Iltara, Archoness of Magic – Mistress of Psionica, the eternal balance of magic. Her disciples ensure magic’s purity, guiding and tempering its use through divine wisdom.
Solene, Archoness of War and Fire – The Warmother and Flame of Honor. Her faithful are righteous warriors who fight with courage and compassion — but never hesitation.
Kraxius, Archon of Justice, Duty, and War – A towering Borelander whose booming voice shakes the halls of the guilty. His champions are paragons of law and divine order, holding all to the same standard — mortal and Archon alike.
