History

The Shadowhawks was created in Mythosum of the Year 50 AES, by the brother of one of the current high ranking members of the Shadowhawks, Fenphina Helmyn, known as Fenfark Helmyn. Starting as a small guild that functioned as a way to unify thieves in Osrego, Fenfark had hoped to to bring forth an empire of crime to rival the main guilds that function in the major continents.   Around about the year 100 AES, Fenfark was imprisoned after a raid on the guild’s surface level HQ, causing the guild to almost fall into a form of disarray and forcing Fenphina to take over until someone more suited was able to take her brother’s place.   In the year 125 AES, Quinn Darkdraft had joined the guild and almost immediately secured the position of Prowler within his first few weeks of being a member of the Shadowhawks, and signalling to Fenphina that Quinn would be a valued member of the guild. In 135 AES, Quinn had risen to Shadowfoot, where he had stayed for the next few years.   Finally in 136 AES, the once known Ezra Silverguard had joined the guild, only a few months after running away from home. Being notorious in the city already, she was quickly welcomed into the Strivine branch of the Shadowhawks, believing to be an easy way into the Silverguard family grounds. Ezra, following in Quinn’s footsteps had also quickly risen through the guild, impressing Fenphina that a child was able to perform so well so quickly.   In 140 AES, Ezra attempted to break into the home of Draven Blackthorn and had failed, drawing further eyes onto the guild again. During this time, the Shadowhawks went heavily underground to prevent peering eyes into the guild and to stay as hidden as possible.   During 148 AES, Ezra was able to track down the guild again. Being accepted back in with open arms, Fenphina stepped down and had let Ezra take the reigns as Queen of the Shadowhawks, knowing she would be able to lead well, as Fenphina was getting on in age.

"Swift as Shadows, Silent as Smoke." “Trust not the visible hand.”
