Sylum Inspiration: Heidi

Ehre/Weisheit Kin Clan: Hunter

 

Heidi doesn’t remember much of her family. She remembers her dad was tall and always made her laugh, while mom had a beautiful singing voice. After they died she was given to her grandpa Alp-Oehi.

He took her to the Von Trapps where she was raised with an education and all intents to be presented in a court. Except she had no interest in court and was more interested in learning how to fight.

When she was old enough she went straight to her grandpa and asked to be Turned.

Sylum Inspiration: William Tell

Weisheit Kin Clan: Lead Hunter

 

William Tell is the Lead Hunter for Weisheit and works with Wilhelm Brandenstein to patrol the Ehre/Weisheit Territory.

***

Several accounts of the Tell legend exist. The earliest sources give an account of the apple shot, Tell’s escape, and the ensuing rebellion. The assassination of Gessler is not mentioned in the Tellen lied but is already present in the White Book of Sarnen account.

The legend as told by Tschudi essentially follows the account in the White Book, but adds further detail, such as Tell’s given name William, his being from Bürglen, and the precise date of the apple-shot of 18 November 1307.

William Tell was known as a strong man, a mountain climber, and an expert shot with the crossbow. In his time, the Habsburg emperors of Austria were seeking to dominate Uri and Tell became one of the conspirators of Werner Stauffacher vowing to resist Habsburg rule. Gessler, the newly appointed Austrian Vogt of Altdorf, raised a pole under the village linden tree, hung his hat on top of it, and demanded that all the townsfolk bow before the hat.

On 18 November 1307, Tell visited Altdorf with his young son and passed by the hat, publicly refusing to bow to it, and so was arrested. Gessler—intrigued by Tell’s famed marksmanship yet resentful of his defiance—devised a cruel punishment: Tell and his son would be executed, but he could redeem his life by shooting an apple off the head of his son, Walter, in a single attempt. Tell split the apple with a bolt from his crossbow.

But Gessler noticed that Tell had removed two crossbow bolts from his quiver, not one. Before releasing him, he asked why. Tell was reluctant to reply, but after Gessler promised he would not attempt to kill him, he replied that if he had killed his son, he would have used the second bolt on Gessler himself. Gessler was angered and had Tell bound, saying that while he had promised to spare his life, he would imprison Tell for the remainder of the life he had been granted.

Tell was brought to Gessler’s boat to be taken to the dungeon in his castle at Küssnacht. But, as a storm broke on Lake Lucerne, the soldiers were afraid that their boat would founder, and they begged Gessler to allow them to remove Tell’s shackles so he could steer the boat and save them. Gessler agreed, and Tell used the opportunity to escape, leaping from the boat at the rocky site now (and already in the White Book) known as the Tellsplatte (“Tell’s slab”), since the 16th century the site of a memorial chapel.  Tell ran cross-country to Küssnacht. As Gessler arrived, Tell assassinated him with the second crossbow bolt along a stretch of the road cut through the rock between Immensee and Küssnacht, now known as the Hohle Gasse. Tell’s blow for liberty sparked a rebellion in which he played a leading part, leading to the formation of the Swiss Confederation

According to Tschudi, Tell fought again against Austria in the 1315 Battle of Morgarten. Tschudi also has an account of Tell’s death in 1354, according to which he was killed trying to save a child from drowning in the Schächenbach river in Uri.

William doesn’t tell what is myth or legend. He likes to leave a bit of Mystery.

He will tell you him and Wilhelm met in a bar. They ended up out back drunk and seeing who had the best archer’s aim.

William is still not sure how he woke up dead.

Sylum Inspiration: Wilhelm Brandtenstein

Ehre: Lead Hunter

 

The one thing unique about Ehre/Weisheit Kin Clan is the fact the two Kin Clans came together.   Despite being one Clan, they still have a dedicated Lead Hunter for each section.  Wilhelm works with William Tell to cover all their territories.

***

Wilhelm was disappointed that his wife wasn’t his Mate, but he lived a good life with her. He watched his daughter grow up, get married, have kids of her own. In time he stepped away and took his place as Wenceslaus’ Hunter, his main job still that of protecting Cinderella.

It was her that encouraged him to enter competitions with his bow and arrow. And where he ended up meeting Cougar and Robin. Though they tease each other greatly who’s the best, Wilhelm is thankful for the friends who would be at his side when need be.

He met Tamara not soon after his daughter had died, surrounded by her grandchildren. She took him hunting for a group of Rogues, and since then they’ve become an unlikely hunting pair. (Dilios Note: Ask them about the Hansel and Gretel)

He still snickers over the Turning of William Tell, though he refuses to admit what led to his Turning exactly.

On one of their adventures they end up Hunting a Rogue in Russia, where they meet Nikolai.  When Nikolai was injured in the raid against the Rogues, Wilhelm Turned him, and they agreed to send him to Masyaf.

The moment Wilhelm meets The Huntsmen he likes the guy instantly. He recruits him for the Guard and in time, he decides to give him the option of being Turned. The Huntsmen took his time to think about it, but in time agreed to be Turned.

This gave Wilhelm more opportunity to travel and conduct further Hunts, knowing that his Childe can protect the Clan while he is away.

Over the years he’s taken a variety of names, including being called Hawkeye by Cougar and Robin. He’s worked for a variety of agencies including MI:6, IMF and CIA.

He was a bit shocked to find is dear wife’s soul staring back at him through the eyes of Ethan Hunt, but over time the two have worked very well together.

Brandt has been happy with his life and wasn’t expecting a Mate, especially in Benji Dunn.

Only thing he can do is glare at Ethan for laughing.

Despite the fact the Ehre and Weisheit Kin Clans joined after World War Two – the Clans each have individual Caretakers.

She’s sweet, charming, and can rule that castle with a iron fist!  She knows everything and no one can get anything past her.  She also has a beautiful singing voice and can be heard through out the castle when dealing with day to day operations.

Ehre/Weisheit: Hunter

 

Keeping with this years Sylum Inspiration: John Preston – Ehre/Weisheit Hunter.

He’s methodical, tenacious, and a deadly Hunter.  Add him with his Mate the two can be unstoppable.

John’s personal self control rises from who his father is, and his need to make sure he never looses control.  One of the few people he relaxes or lets go – is his Mate.

Character Introduction: Eduard Cheirmine

kivanc-tatlitug-meryem-e-hayir-dedi-6764561_x_2994_o

Ehre/Weisheit: Hunter

 

Name: Eduard Cheirmine

Turn Date: 1316 AD

Sire: Imenand

Mate: Philipe Cheirmine

***

Philipe and Eduard were Fraternal twins left at the Von Trapps doorstep when they were barely six months old.

The two were always inseparable and did everything together. Georg had made sure they were educated and well trained in sword fighting. Though Eduard took the sword fighting like a Master.

It was Georg who first noticed something was wrong, when Philipe collapsed in the middle of a training session. He called the local doctor who couldn’t figure what was wrong with him, but the fact his blood was weak.

Taking him and Eduard to the Council, Plato informed them that both brothers were very sick, and it was a blood disease he had seen before but didn’t know how to fix. (Dilios Note: Plato looked back at his notes and realized both Cheirmine brothers had leukemia).

Imenand sat down with both of them, asked them if they thought about being Turned.
