At one point during TCOS development we created the Discipline Masters, a set of the Enclave’s greatest heroes and prime examples of what to expect from the Disciplines, our class system. While they were put in the game, they never got the attention I wanted them to have, nor were all assets used. I envisioned them as a band of contemporary heroes the players could fight alongside to in specific scenes.

Marlon Kromodikoro, Dennis Zoetebier and yours truly created a bio for each of the Discipline Masters and this series is meant to showcase each of them. The game itself only contained minor bits and pieces.

Master Wrathguard

• Name: Merald Heragon
• Race: Daevi
• Gender: Female
• Age (998 AC): 24 (974 AC)
• Previous Faction: Torque

History

Throughout the years House Torque became synonymous with politics. But the High House would like to view itself as being ‘heroic’. Growing up next to House Torque in a Torque family meant that Merald Heragon was very well aware of this. And if that wasn’t enough, both her father and mother pushed the little girl into becoming a new Torque hero. She started training at the age of 5 and at the age of 10 she was capable of out-classing the Torque guards near Torque High House, leading her to become quite famous in town.

Yes, I’m Dutch. Yes, I’m creating virtual polders on the Rllmuk Minecraft server and filling them with rows of neatly ordered trees. Yes, I’m going to continue with the ‘empty lots’ you can still see on this piece of map. Yes, I’m insane.

Cornelis Lely would be proud!

Master Void Seer

• Name: Isarah Nenuse
• Race: Daevi
• Gender: Female
• Age (998 AC): 48 (950 AC)
• Previous Faction: Veridan

History

Isarah Nenuse grew up in the Palace of Quarterstone. Her ‘father’ Enclave Delegate Zildis Nenuse is curiously enough a human, yet Isarah is daevi. As a child this caused her to be ridiculed by the other children and Isarah became a quite nervous and solitary child. Searching for a role model to look up to, the Veridan proved to be a bit too close at hand. Ten years after the end of Tykaru’s Tyranny had turned the Veridan from rogue fanatics into a trusted society of the Oracle’s keepers.

Master Trickster

• Name: Nolden Krainstyn (pseudonym for Endlon Prisoner)
• Race: Human
• Gender: Male
• Age (998 AC): 42 (956 AC)
• Previous Faction: Citizen (Ousted)

History

Endlon Prisoner is one of the original Prisoners amongst the Ousted, who grew up on the scaffolds and bridges of The Lessers. He believes sincerely that the Enclave is a disaster waiting to happen. The notion was ignited at an early age when he already expressed a keen interest in the workings of gadgets and his mentor told him of how the Enclave had discarded the technology behind it, only to steal it back.
