The Circle

The Circle of the Black Star, commonly refered as the Circle, was a paramilitary organization founded at the same time as the Four Great Nations. It began as religious order for the Dark Gods in the old Athalanor, but it was reformed when Cordus Electio, one of the three founders of Athalanis and the second king of Athalamir revolted against his friend and companion, King Theodrum of Athalamir in what was known as the Great Schism and the later Athalamir Civil War and it became a military order. Following it's defeat in the Athalamir Civil War the Circle became branched as a criminal organization, and it's members had to hide from the public eye, however the Circle has only grown in numbers ever since.

It was made public again in 20th Century, when it allied with the Athalanti-Herlecclian Empire during the Great World War, in wich severall young Lumens where allowed to be taken from their families and teached on the Circle philosophy. After the war the Circle was tasked do defend the heirs of the Signus Dynasty.

The Circle resurfaced years later, with an army of composed of Inquisitors, Acolytes and other Dark Lumeni, as well as hundreds of thousands Tartarians and other dark creatures. The conflict that followed was the Cold War, in wich the Circle took control of the capital city of Lacrima, from the nation of Sohoro and made it their base of operations. The Circle was later defeated at the Battle of Athilsur, the battle that ended the Cold War.
