User:Arabani/Argent Dawn (WIP)

The Argent Dawn is an organization in the fictional Warcraft Universe dedicated to fighting the undead Scourge that controls the continent of Lordaeron. The Argent Dawn accepts aid from any that are willing to help them fight against the Scourge, even repentant undead, such as Leonid Barthalomew the Revered. The Argent Dawn views the Scourge to be the predominant threat to Azeroth and has little time for what it considers to be petty squabbbles between the Horde and the Alliance. The Argent Dawn is led by Lord Maxwell Tyrosus and Duke Nicholas Zverenhoff.

Organization
The Argent Dawn does not have many members, but what it lacks in size, it more than makes up for in strength of will. The members of the Argent Dawn are dedicated to their goal of eliminating the Scourge and healing the ravaged continent of Lordaeron. Although primarily composed of humans, the Argent Dawn welcomes members of all races, and even includes a few Night Elves and an Undead.

Operations
The Argent Dawn, being few in number, often recruits adventurers in its fight against the Scourge. Those who accept the commission of the Argent Dawn are able to exchange Scourgestones (insignia carried by the Scourge to denote rank) for Valor Tokens, used to either buy items from the Argent Dawn or to increase one's standing with the Argent Dawn. Agents of the Argent Dawn have also sabotaged the cauldrons used by the Scourge to spread their plague of undeath and collected data on the plague in the hopes of finding a way to counter it.

The Argent Dawn also fights against the Scarlet Crusade, which it sees as a group of blind zealots and a threat to the entire world. Despite their common goal, the leaders of the Argent Dawn view the Scarlet Crusade as a perversion of the Holy Light.

Chillwind Camp
A small camp on the border between the Western Plaguelands and Alterac Mountains, Chillwind Camp lies just south of the ruins of Andorhal. Weldon Barov, one of the last two heirs of the Barov family fortune, resides here under Alliance protection.

Light's Hope Chapel
The Argent Dawn's main base of operations, it is located in the Eastern Plaguelands, just south of the Scourge-infested Noxious Glade and north of the Scarlet Crusade garrison of Tyr's Hand. It is very small, consisting of only a ruined church and cemetery. Lord Maxwell Tyrosus and Duke Nicholas Zverenhoff reside here.

The Bulwark
An earthworks guarding the road from the Western Plaguelands to the Tirisfal Glade, it serves to contain the Scourge to the Plaguelands. Alexi Barov, the undead brother of Weldon Barov, resides here under the protection of the Horde.

Guildhouses
The Argent Dawn also maintains two guildhouses, one in the city of Stormwind, which is empty, and the other in the city of Darnassus.
