 +
* Nereus - More "proactive" than the rest. He's not afraid of speaking his mind or getting in trouble, be it with the light or dark allegiance.
 +
* Archelaus - Usually sides with Thea in discussions. Unlike Nereus, he is willing to work together with the dark side when they both share the same goals.
 +
* Maristella - In charge of recruiting and rallying the masses. She strongly dislikes the dark side, especially Lord Matthew.
 +
* Zhi Xun - One of the richest and most powerful people in all of Midgard. He uses his influence on governments and private companies to persuade them to side with the Light Side, but he also seems seems to have goals of his own.

Chronicle of the Heroes

The "Chronicle of the Heroes" is the main story line that the heRO server follows for it's story related events in the server. From the story's point of view, the "Chronicle of the Heroes" is a detailed record of all events from the beginning of history, written by the historian Auron (named after the former story manager GM). The record starts from the rise of the gods and goddesses for both the Order of the Light Allegiance and Legion of the Dark Allegiance, up to the present day and all that had happened to the Heroes of the world.


Dreamstone

Mysterious violet ore found mainly in the Faeheim Archipelago, Manuk, and the Lutie Region. It is somehow able to absorb and store energy, but it has other, more mystical uses. The fairies would long ago, use a magic crown studded with a refined form of the ore to enter people's dreams and memories. They would help their own with insomnia and post traumatic disorders, or extract vital war information from their enemies and cause terror.

Due to the amount of crimes committed with these stones, they were outlawed and destroyed long ago. Only Queen Pixie and her sister Lucretia know how use the refined ore to enter someone's mind.

The symbol of the Legion was a black hammer with a golden halo.


Summoning Bond

A spell used to control the actions of others. Often used on non-humans, as they are easier to control and don't resist as strongly. The Dark Conjurer Eudoxie controlled Skoll this way, until the bond was broken by St. Vitus and a group of heroes.


War of Agony

A 200 year war that began when the dark god, Erebos, created aggressive and deadly monsters to destroy humanity. Erebos almost succeeded in his plans, but Hestia, the goddess of light, would assist the humans with compassion. The battle came to an end when both gods clashed and caused the world to shake. Odin would descend on the field and lay a decree that stated the following:

"Enough, this war is over! This final attack showed me that neither side would prevail, since both of you will die from each other’s attack. Starting today no Gods shall ever interfere directly with this world. The Gods will no longer part with the divine knowledge to the humans, but neither will humans be purged for receiving the gift of knowledge from the Gods in the past. From now on, humans will walk their own path in this world."


Wingless

A faction led by the fae princess Lucretia and her friend Cynbel during the Fairyland Chronicles. They recruited humans to work with her to find the truth about Lucretia’s wings, and Amdusias’s true plans for Faeheim.

Their symbol was a black cross behind a broken, light-purple wing.
