Lady Silverne comes from noble blood. Her family crest was that of a Rose. She was only 15 when her family was killed. A large group of mercernaries came to their home trying to steal their gold and valuables. Her father fought bravely but could not fend off the 20 men. They slit his throat after beating him to near death. Her brother and sister were stabbed while they slept at least it was quick and they never felt it she hoped. Silverne only escaped because her mother stood in the way of the attackers shouting to Silverne to run they stabbed her mother in the heart. Silverne froze, she looked into her mothers eyes as her life slowly slipped away.
She was taken by the mercenaries used to cook and treat the mens wounds, until one day the group was attacked by the Lich King and his army. The lucky men were killed and the others like her were turned into a Death Knight.
She fought for months under the Lich Kings orders. She loved the taste of blood, enjoyed killing. Her body felt stronger than she could imagine. She used her talents well. Anyone who was unfortunate to cross her path felt the steel of her blade.
Until late one night she was on a battlefield and drenched in blood. Her hair matted to her face. Her eyes wild with frenzy. The sword she held grew heavier the more she slaughtered.
The field was filled with putrid black smoke and the stench of death clung in the air. Silverne could barely see but something caught her eye, it was a Red Rose almost glowing standing so noble and proud. She could hear her fathers voice "Be like the Rose Silverne, stay proud, loyal and good" . Silverne fell to her knee's her heart seemed to swell as if she was still alive. Her eyes filled with tears. "I shall father, I shall make you proud of me!" She threw her sword away. She vowed to create the an order to help others who were lost and alone, who had committed crimes and wanted a second chance.
So she came to Stormwind City and found a friend a Noble that she knew when she was growing up called Coldene Steelsong and asked how she could make an order. Coldene helped Silverne make contacts and slowly the Knights of the Rose started to grow. So started the search for anyone needing the support of a family. Looking to help them feel safer and also become stronger.
It's been over a year now since Silverne left that battlefield. The crest of her family is worn by over 250 members. She is still out there searching for anyone who wants a chance, a chance to find a home and peace again.
The Guild stands for loyalty, honor and to protect and defend each other.
