Like our forestal brethren, the [[The Ancient Circle of Druids|Druids]] and [[Sentinels of Nature|Sentinels]], the Sylvans make Nature our priority in all things, and dedicate ourselves to the protection and preservation of such, knowing that it is Nature that sustains and succors all of us through our lives. We also recognise that even Nature has a root and a purpose, as do all things in existence; thus we strive to learn and understand the causes, effects, and meanings hidden within everything that exists.

As a [[help:houses|House]], the Sylvans have evolved from our humble Druid/Magi beginnings into a unique entity all our own - strong, proud, scholarly, and wise. We do not tolerate the abuse of Nature, or the abuse of one another. We strive to expand our knowledge to the very boundaries of our world and beyond. Though fierce if provoked, we prefer to exist peacefully with others, not indulging in selfishness or greed, but with respect for all, and the understanding that we are all connected, by the Elements that form us, and the Nature that nourishes us.

Around the Year 678AF, the Ventos Allegos, a minion of Lady [[Lorielan]], destroyed all the Icons ending with the fall of the the [[Stag Crown]]. When the Sentinels Icon fell the Ventos Allegos travelled trough the Shadow Icon to the Eastern Ithmia. With the presence of Ventos Allegos being to much for the forest and Eleusis, the trees and woods began to become distorted. Awaken from her slumber by the arrival of the Ventos Allegos, Lady Artemis along with Lady Gaia combined their powers to rejuvenate the forest and removed the Ventos Allegos. With the surge of Natural energy, the trees and plants began to heal along with the trees of the the Three Great Forestal Houses, of which they then became no more.

329 AF The Sylvans Guild is founded by ex-Druid '''Krel''', patroned by [[Demeter]], the Green Lady. A blending of Magi and Druids, and a few Sentinels join to bring this guild to life. The Sylvans make their home in [[Eleusis]], placing their guildhall there.

The organization was originally founded in 329 AF as the Sylvans [[:Category:guilds|guild]], a fusion between [[Druid]]s and [[:Category:classes|Magi]]. Sylvans received Viridian within Elementalism instead of Staffcast and their inception. This was the only difference between the two practiced skills at that time. Viridian increased strength and constitution by +2 and did damage based on one's strength.
329 AF Deonymus, who was recently the Guildmaster of the Druids, left after his contestation and loss to Conor as Guild Master. Deonymus became the first Head of Novices, and brought with him the foundations of the Novice program.


333 AF Constant exterminations by Dalamar and other Mhaldorians cause a constant threat to the forest. An herb ban on [[Mhaldor]] is brought into effect from both the Sylvans and the Sentinels, and later the Druids and [[Oakstone]]. Dalamar was enemied to Mhaldor as a part of the treaty to resolve the herb ban, but only remained enemied for 4 months, before being un-enemied by Detritus. Mistral eventually takes over of Mhaldor, strips Detritus of his city powers, and re-enemies Dalamar.

They also recognized that even Nature had a root and a purpose, as do all things in existence; thus they strived to learn and understand the causes, effects, and meanings hidden within everything that existed.

Around the Year 678AF, the Ventos Allegos, a minion of Lady Lorielan, destroyed all the Icons ending with the fall of the the Stag Crown. When the Sentinels Icon fell the Ventos Allegos travelled trough the Shadow Icon to the Eastern Ithmia.
