The coming of the Siabra

The Siabra are ancient creatures. Followers of trickery, deceit and sophistry as they sought to curry favour and trust among the Seelie and the mortals; trust they once hoped to use against them in their "war" to conquer Gholgoth. However, thousands of years ago, the Empyrean Elder, Lady Ki'atra, banished Queen Cliodna "being" to the Veil, leaving her physical body in an ancient tomb protected by powerful magicks of the light.

The Siabra was once split between seven distinct "clans" - The Dergan, the Eriu, the Gurite, the Moheran, the Sheevra, the Siog, and then the royal Siabra. These clans, in the past, were seperated mostly by geography.. but as time grew their culture differed as well. However, all were bound by the rule of Queen Cliodna, Ruler of the Siabra.

The Dergans were powerful enchanters; The Eriu shepards of the lands. The Moherans were manipulators of strange magicks; The Gurites wardens of the paths to the Queen. The Sheevra were industrious miners; the Siog were explorers, and finally the reclusive Siabra, who have always been rulers of the Siabra kind. All of the Siabra clan are descendants of royal blood.

In the darkest regions of Doujin, the native Siabra of Gholgoth were awoken. It has been thousands of years since the Empyrean and Siabra have clashed. Ki'atra, now Empress of Doujin, the High Seat of the Empyreans, had banished Queen Cliodna of the Siabra to a deep slumber. However, a powerful Eriu enchantress, Maliar Morerea - Chieftain of the Council, has worked with the powerful Tarassion Muire, Eldritch of the Void and Lord of the Moheran, to reanimate Queen Cliodna.

Unfortunately, as powerful as the two were, they alone were not able to reanimate the great Queen Cliodna. However, their powers combined did have one positive effect for them. It brought forth the ancient Siabra Archimagi, who have been waiting for over a thousand years to assist someone powerful enough to awaken their beloved Queen. High Archimagus Garsith Tagg, the leader of the Siabra Archimagi, came forth along with three most powerful enchanters of the Siabra clan.

"Maliar Morerea, Tarassion Muire - I am death. I am that which controls the powerful magicks of the Siabra. I am High Archimagus Garsith Tagg, Leader of the Siabra Archimagi. Why have you called us forth?"

"The forces of the Unseelie have remained dormant for far too long in Gholgoth. We, the Eriu and Moheran clan, believed it was now possible to reanimate
Queen Cliodna. However, after combining our powers.. we have failed."

The "room" became dark as night. Flames came from the ground in the shape of the seal of the Unseelie Court around the tomb of Queen Cliodna. The fire weaved intricately the pattern of the dark magicks, creating a powerful node that could be harnessed by the Siabra Archimagi. The flame turned black, and a soft glow came from the tomb's entrance.

Suddenly, a dark, eerie female voice spoke.

"We are the Siabra. We are the titular rulers of the Unseelie Courts. OURS is the right to dominion of ALL of Gholgoth. By traitors and usurpers, our right has been torn from us. We are wise, we are strong, we are noble. Now that I have been cast from the Veil, there is but one path in front of us: a return to the rule of the Old Laws by whatever means necessary.

In an explosion of fire, Queen Cliodna, Ruler of the Siabra, appeared.

"It is time for the Unseelie Court to rise to power, and for those who have stolen our land from us to perish. Ki'atra must BURN for what she has done to me."
