Vigil
“Some must fight, so that all may be free.
The Vigil is a military order dedicated to fighting the Elder Dragons and their minions by force of arms. They believe that the only way to defeat the Elder Dragons is to unite the races of Tyria and to face the minions of the Elder Dragons wherever they appear. The Vigil wants to face the Elder Dragons directly, testing Zhaitan's power in the hope that such methods can one day be used against the dragon itself. They believe that the Elder Dragons grow more powerful as each day passes, and that those who do not fight now are giving the world away by standing passively aside. They intend to be an army of light against the onslaught of darkness.

History[edit]
Founding[edit]
In 1320 AE, Legionnaire Almorra Soulkeeper of the Blood Legion and her Soul warband were on patrol in the Lowland Burns when the Elder Crystal Dragon Kralkatorrik stirred. Flying overhead, Kralkatorrik Branded all the members of the Soul warband with the exception of Almorra. Suddenly under attack by creatures who were once her friends, Almorra was forced to kill the rest of her warband in an event known as Almorra's Massacre. Almorra fell into depression with her warband's death and she became a gladium, refusing anyone attempting to aid her. Eventually, Laranthir of the Wild managed to become her friend and convince her to turn her quest for vengeance into a worldwide campaign against all the Elder Dragons. Almorra found other people who had been destroyed by the dragons, and founded the Vigil.
The Vigil is known to have a base in Lion's Arch along with having its main base at the Vigil Keep, located in the Gendarran Fields. In 1324 AE, the Vigil acted as go-between to negotiate the ceasefire and eventual Ebonhawke Treaty between the charr and the humans to allow them to turn their armies against the Elder Dragons.[1]
