| | Years passed by since the brave Cassandra tricked Riga, murdering him late one night. Every attempt to find out the fate of Cassandra was quickly deterred, as the ariels were still full of rage and fury, slaughtering anyone who came near the tower. Though the mighty spells of Riga were fast wearing off, the people of Alyria were starting to become weary. Afraid of the power of Cassandra, who was much more devious than Riga, the people started to grow anxious in anticipation. Soon enough they began to argue over trivial things such as why the adventurers to the Tower of Riga were never returning, and what was going to happen. The trivial matters quickly grew out of proportion and the towns were nearing full-scale war with each other. |

| The Council of Seven banded together, fearing the nations would go to war and destroy each other. They met for days, neither sleeping nor eating, trying to think up a way to solve the problem. After much arguing about which was the best method, they finally agreed that only one solution would work. They would recruit the best fighters from each location on Alyria and form a league to keep the people in order. The Council looked throughout the land, never giving up hope at finding someone strong in mind and battle to lead this group. After many weeks they came across a gallant Knight, training in the woods of Xaventry with the druids. Not completely confident of his abilities, they returned with him to their temple and began training. Teaching him ways of controlling the Elements, manipulating matter with his mind and utilizing many battle techniques previously unknown to the druids, he became much more powerful and loyal to the Council. They were finally pleased with their subject, and began to construct the band of enforcers. Finding warriors in all fields of magic and combat, they formed what seemed to be a perfect combination. They immediately sent these enforcers out to prevent war all over the world. Struggling at times, they eventually accomplished what they sought to achieve. |

| The council decided to allow these enforcers to continue to keep the peace, however the leader, now named Rastrial, saw their power and the fear they inspired in others and became arrogant. High on power, and over-confident, he plotted an overthrow of the Council and bid his colleagues to follow. A few weeks passed and the enforcers gathered near the Council's temple. Although strong, the Council was well aware of Rastrial's plans and had already gone to great measures to prevent the planned overthrow. As the enforcers began raiding the temple shields grew everywhere and vines whipped up from the ground, ensnaring them. Shocked by what had happened, the band realized the Council had known about their plan and begged for mercy as the Council approached. Aware of their trickery and deceitful ways, the Council cast several binding spells on them to subdue their powers. Leaving them with slightly more than they begun with, the Council then imprisoned the band. Breaking out of the Council's confinement, they fled to a nearby town and sought refuge where they regained their energy. Furious about what had happened to them, they embarked upon the mission of breaking the spells binding their true power by seeking the wisest of the Alyrian mages. |

| After years of unsuccessful searching they finally gave up and contrived to decide on a name. After days of deliberation the Knights of Chaos stood again with renewed determination. Still seeking battles wherever they can find them and causing fear in as many people as possible, they fight with agility and intelligence, combining the arts of magic and weaponry. They found a small island south of the Towne of Sigil on which they built their guildhall. |

| Still a powerful band in Alyria, the descendants of the original Knights of Chaos still roam the lands, looking for battles wherever they can find them. They still believe the blood of their ancestors courses through their veins, filled with suppressed power that might one day be released so that they may once again be the strongest in all of Alyria. |
