Kiris Miran

Not all organizations mean well for the nations they operate within. Such could be said of the Kiris Miran, which was very recently responsible for a temporary state of anarchy in the Kingdom of Vyss, during the War of Shadows (formally known as the Shalzaarian Border War). Primarily a guild of Shadow Elf necromancers, shadowmancers and anti-paladins, the Kiris Miran sought to create a state of chaos within the kingdom, during the war to aid their secret allies, the Xannti Dragons. With the aid of Queen Aryiseema, who is a high ranking member of the Kiris Miran (albeit, secretly so until her involvement was revealed), a series of events was set into motion with the death of King Nevrezh II. This series of events put the sympathy-empowered queen in charge and allowed her much more freedom in making decisions that otherwise might have been questioned.

Ultimately, the Kiris Miran would have returned her to power, claiming that they had found her and rescued her from the dragons, thereby validating their existence as an organization and cementing their shadowed control of the illustrious Twilight Court. With Queen Aryiseema as their figurehead, the Kiris Miran had many plans for directing the fate of the Kingdom. Unfortunately, with their plans thwarted the Kiris Miran has been driven underground where the dark hand of their plots remains free, albeit lessened in strength. While fundamentally disempowered by the conclusion of the War of Shadows, the Kiris Miran still holds a great deal of influence in cities all over the Kingdom of Vyss and can still sway events in small, less significant ways. The Kiris Miran are identified by the crimson robes they wear (or in the case of their anti-paladins, their crimson armor) with black runes marked upon them.
