 ===== Ancient History of Kelvar ===== ===== Ancient History of Kelvar =====
-Kelvar and her brother, Grim-Notesh, are two of the original dragons from Torandor. Nobody is entirely sure of their origin or ascension to divinity at that time, but both of them ended up as gods of dragons of Torandor. Kelvar's domain was that of the nurturing aspects of dragons. Specifically revolving around their leadership and dominion over nature, leadership and guidance of people and ruling. Kelvar desired to use dragons natural power to grow wealth and nations, while yet remaining above them. To do trade by barter and deals, over that of physical strength.+Kelvar and her brother, Grim-Notesh, are two of the original [[lore:creatures:greatbeasts:dragons|dragons]] from [[settings:torandor|Torandor]].

 Grim-Notesh held opposing ideals to that of Kelvar. He and his children desired to rule as well, but by force. His domain encompassed the strength and desires of dragon, their primal nature and to hoard wealth.  Grim-Notesh held opposing ideals to that of Kelvar.

-Following the events of Derago, Kelvar’s ancient Kingdom of [[settings:Keerlevex|Keer'Levex]] was refounded by Keket and Kelvar. The island was old and abandoned, though it still hosted a magnificent empty temple to Kelvar. Through adventuring and deals made with the priesthood of Vormaxia, Keer’Levex has become an official kingdom on Jaern. Since then Keer’Levex’s population and dragon presence has expanded, with many dragons seeking their kin from around Jaern. During the downtime before Dragons Gate, Keket was crowned empress and high priest of Kelvar by the last remaining servitor of Kelvar, a dragon named Eivor.+Following the events of Derago, Kelvar’s ancient Kingdom of [[settings:jaern:Keerlevex|Keer'Levex]] was refounded by Keket and Kelvar.

-Since this time, Keer’Levex has expanded and placed 5 shrines to Kelvar around Jaern. One resides on the island of Centralia, one in Frosland, one in Ageron, one in Lojem, and one moved off the planet by adventurers. This one was moved to a space station, which crashed back to Jaern and sunk to the bottom of the seas. These shrines currently function as temples to Kelvar while more temples are being built.+Since this time, Keer’Levex has expanded and placed 5 shrines to Kelvar around Jaern.

 The Priests and Priestesses of Kelvar are by and far one of the flashiest of known priesthoods. Their clothing and robe is often adorned with jewels and made from fine and expensive silks, showing their wealth and prestige. Many of the priests of Kelvar themselves were of nobility or mercantile classes, this has lead to the priesthood in some circles to have a bit of a gaudy or haughty image, though doubters will quickly learn they can easily back up their words, priests of Kelvar are often taken in at the age of 5 and will often stay within the temples for the the next 14 years as they are trained.  The Priests and Priestesses of Kelvar are by and far one of the flashiest of known priesthoods.

-The Festival of Fire is a annual event held on the island of Keer'Levex and put on by the current council of the island. While not a mandatory event, its highly regarded as proper form for much of the priesthood to show up, if able. The event is meant for fun, and consists of the finest craftsman of Jaern selling their wares, games for the young and old to play, and a lot of food and fire. Some of the elder dragons remember when the Festival of Fire used to encompass more to it, but much of the that has changed since Derago wiped many of the dragons off Jaern. Its common for the high priestess to give a speech regaling many of the greatest accomplishments of Jaernian dragons through the year, as well as some of their failures and where they can improve. +The Festival of Fire is a annual event held on the island of Keer'Levex and put on by the current council of the island.
