The Hounds of Kree[]
"You are no longer a thief, mercenary, you are not a knight bound by the laws of lords and nobles.. Now you are a soldier of Kree- a soldier of a greater purpose. Now you are a light in the dark, a warmth for those lost in the cold- you will be my bulwark against evil, a sword to cut down the foul creatures of the night- beasts of myth.. you are harbingers of justice. These words were passed onto me from my teacher.. and now I pass them to you." - Darius Ironheart
Re-forged in requiem..[]
Following an expedition to New Hearth on the 29th of sowing 654MR, the final Hound Of Kree met his demise at the hands of Mylzrir.. The Broken King. Lance- once leader of the Hounds passed the torch to a young monster hunter named Darius Ironheart. Now burdened with the heavy mantle of responsibility, Darius put his mind, skill, and experience into putting a stop to the dragon that scourged Geth for far too long now.
The Hounds were thought to have been lost along with Lance.. but with the same dragon's fire that burned the remaining Hound to ashes- a new era was born for them. With Darius, a flicker of life remained in those ashes.. like a once roaring flame suffocated by smoke- the Hounds' legacy clings to life through him.
With a flicker of light in the dark, the Hounds of Kree live on. The miracle outcome of the fight against Mylzrir left Darius with the responsibility of building The Hounds anew. He was faced with the need to recruit followers of Kree and twist them into Kree's very own soldiers..
Soldiers bound by duty[]
To handle the newfound responsibility, Darius decided to introduce a new order. The Hounds not only seek to bring undead souls back to Kree- bring them to peace. They do not only seek to execute necromancers that tip the scales of balance and destroy order.. But they also seek to hunt monsters of all kinds.. whether that be a figurative or literal sense. Darius always lived under the idea that monsters are not only the beasts of myth, folktale, creatures that plague the night and forests, or those brought about by bloodmoon. Now the Hounds hunt all sorts from undead and necromancers to Ashborn and their masters along with other monsters.. there is no exception.
