The Protectors of the Realm

Overview
The five greatest warriors from across the continents came together to form the Protectors of the Realm in order to defend the world from the vile creatures and push back the darkness. The Protectors were formed by Misdek Wintersurge, the greatest of the five warriors. They have the most victories ever achieved under a single leadership.

History
Misdek Wintersurge formed The Protectors of the Ream 5,026 years ago and recruited four other warriors, Busham Dhakhei, Orkurth Axearm, Vagnan Dragonstone and Saldrim Blackbreaker.

During their prime, 5,024 years ago, the Protectors of the Realm lead men into a conflict between Drogar the Skullcrusher and this army of dark corrupted warriors, The Reapers. This battle became known as the War of the Eternal Night during which the Protectors of the Realm pushed back Drogar the Skullcrusher and decimated the Reapers considering that the odds were in the Reapers favour. Drogar was not killed but he was never seen again.

The Protectors of the Realm took part in many battles for the years to come until Misdek went missing a week before the Battle for the Dawn took place, 5,005 years ago. The Midnight Company rose and the four remaining Protectors of the Realm lead The Combined Empire into battle against the Midnight Company. With Misdek missing moral was not as high and a major portion of their skill was missing. This is why it is believed that Orkurth Axearm and Vagnan Dragonstone were slain during the Battle for the Dawn, as there has never been a fatality in the Protectors of the Realm since they formed decades before. 5,004 years ago, after the Battle for the Dawn, Saldrim Blackbreaker took up leadership of the Protectors of the Realm and recruited new warriors Skorgric Bloodbringer, Elstrog Clearwind and Dwolas Thundermace, calling themselves The New Protectors of the Realm. They had many successful battles within the next decade but they were finally all wiped out due to unknown causes and were founded slaughtered 4,994 years ago. Since the deaths of the Protectors of the Realm they have never risen again with new warriors and currently no longer exist.
