It is said that there were five cousins who tended to a great dragon who was in possession of a vast hold full of gemstones. After many years of serving their dragon master faithfully one of the cousins planted a seed of dissent in the minds of the other four. After a while all five cousins were ready to take what they wanted from the dragon while it was sleeping and they crept into the hold very quietly. As soon as each one of the cousins grasped a gem the dragon awakened with a thunderous roar, none of the cousins wanted to let go of the beautiful stones they had stolen so they swallowed the sparkling stones.

Little did the cousins know, the stones they stole were infused with portions of the dragon's power and when they swallowed them they gained the powers infused within the stone. The five cousins became the founders of the five magical Guilds, the Warrior, the Wizard, the Seer, Enchanter, and the Sorcerer. The Wizard developed a plan that by working together they would overcome the dragon. The Seer would tell the others when it would be at it's most vulnerable, the Enchanter would sing it to sleep, the Sorcerer would brew a powerful sleeping potion to make the dragon stay asleep indefinitely, and it was the job of the Warrior to pour the potion into the dragon's sleeping mouth. After it was done the five cousins were tricked into signing a Covenant that put the other four in the Service of the Wizard.

For many, many years the "Underguilds" (anyone who is not a Wizard) were treated as slaves and were held as property by the two houses of Wizards that grew out of the middle ages. The Red Rose and the White Rose were founded by powerful families and went to war with each other. After many years of bloodshed the Roses came to an agreement, and they created something called "The Game." The Game is where each House, Red and White Rose play a Warrior in a fight and the winner would determine what was the more powerful House. Games can only be done once a year and must be fought at Raven's Ghyll.

Now we are living in modern times and the so-called "Underguilds" got tired of being treated as slaves and some decided to rebel against the Roses and thus was formed the Dragon House, who's cause is to dismantle the old ways and make all the Weir equal. The Dragon House has set up a Sanctuary for anyone who wants to get away from the Red and White Rose in Trinity, Ohio. A small mid-west town where everyone local knows everyone else.
