Assemblage of Uld
"The whirring humdrum of machinery could pierce one's ears. It was simply just that loud -- a machine that big?! Was it even really necessary? The gargantuan, mechanical mount would loom over any person, especially that of a gnome. Puzzling. One would wonder why these tanks were even created - it's far too big for them, right? And why is it in the form of an arachnid, of all creatures?
Their ingenuity always surprises me."
About
The Assemblage of Uld, named in honor of Titan facilities such as Ulduar, Uldaman, and Uldir, is a group of Gnomes serving Gnomeregan tasked with various recovery operations aimed at artifacts, mechanisms, and items of power related to Gnomish interests. However innocent their job may seem, they have a knack for causing trouble and getting their hands dirty; no matter the task, Gnomeregan was always to be listened to. As of late, the Assemblage has been skewed down a more militaristic route. Mystical items are still a priority, but defending Gnomeregan and its beliefs are imperative.The Early Days
The Assemblage was formed prior to the initial fall of Gnomeregan. Its core initiative was to hunt and retrieve artifacts and other items linked to their Titanic heritage. Founded by Architect Luigi Cosmograph it gathered a small following and helped their kind understand more about their past, and how it could be used to help them in the present and future. Tragedy soon struck. Gnomeregan was plunged into a sea of green, toxic irradiation - either killing or warping the population into something vile. Many Assemblage members died in the massacre - or were transformed into the hideous Leper Gnomes. After the fall, the Assemblage delved into the deep halls of Gnomeregan to try and reclaim some of their lost technology. On one unlucky mission, however, they were ambushed by lepers. Four-fifths of the Assemblage vanished that day, many of these missing gnomes forming the rival 'Disassemblage of Uld' organization.Assembling the Assemblage
The Assemblage still lingered, but the organization began to boom in active members during the Fourth War. Still led by the Architect, they had managed to travel far across the planet in search of untapped power and platoons to aid. It is here their quasi-religious reverence towards the Titans began to show, and they soon started to worship their creators zealously. Most importantly, the group of gnomes ventured into a vision of Ulduar, where Designate Ashstrike, a wayward Dark Iron who worked her way up through the ranks, was lost protecting her colleagues. Notable members joining during this time were:- Monty C. Railcraft, knight of the Tinkered Table
- Ryder Razorfuse, famed soldier of the Gnomeregan Infantry
- Jerin Boltwrench, inventor and marksman
- Gelris Tosslespark, munitions dealer and smith of Tosslespark™ Munitions
- Hyperactivia Cranklink, explosives expert, specialist
A Change in Management
The Architect had been exposed to large doses of radiation during his long life. He had remained largely absent in the recent years of the Assemblage, effectively passing the torch to the Cog Captain, Montgomery C. Railcraft. Railcraft and the Assemblage became one of the founding members of the Stonewatch Concordat, aA different mechanism
During the changes within the Assemblage, the changes were a change of leadership, it caused the Assemblage to head over to Boin Heavycloak. Boin was the current Forge Captain after the previous one had to return to her home, it involved the events of the Twilight Cultists. When Piwell was leading the Assemblage, he decided to team up with Boin and officially sign the contract to merge both the Assemblage and the League of Modimus into one unit and go with the name "Forgecog Fellowship" From that day on more decisions were made. Another one is stepping out of the Concordat. Heavycloak also began making allies with the people who some of the Forgecog members never liked due to past events. Though in time Boin was called back to his mountain, leaving the Forgecog behind. Of course, it needed a new leader, one who would carry on the wishes of the Forgecog and its glory. Lexa Bravebraid who was originally the fourth Forge Captain of the League of Modimus was told of the Forgecog events, causing her to abandon her post whilst it was safe to do so. Though upon arriving back she was informed of his choices, choices she wanted to revert. With Lexa's new right hand, Kanma, she hopes that she can continue with the Forgecog, leading it in a direction every Forge Captain would've wanted.
