Гутикс

Гутикс

Гутикс was the god of balance and one of the first beings to arrive on Gielinor. He was a Naragi, a race of intelligent humanoid people, and the only member of the race to survive the God War of his home. This event caused him to detest divine beings, believing that worlds could only survive without divine influence.

During the year 182 of the Пятая эпоха, Guthix was slain by a mahjarrat named Sliske, and appointed a new Guardian of Guthix, the World Guardian. His death marked the beginning of the Шестая эпоха in Gielinor and the return of most gods, which he banished at the end of the Gielinorian God Wars. In the 10th year of the Sixth Age, Заморак decided to invade Gielinor with an demonic army, here a new Edict was created, one that no longer required someone to maintain, banishing the majority of the gods once more.

Followers

Through out the history of Gielinor, Guthix has had a number of followers all across Gielinor. Within Эшенфолл, most of his followers were left behind after a number of them attempted to kill all of the Амальгамы humans, being abandoned by their god, some of the Guthixians were converted into Saradominism, while a few remains loyal, in hope that they would be forgiven. Some that stayed behind would be appointed as Дикие рыцари. Within the mainland, other humans, dwarves, gnomes, fairies and other races would continue to worship the god.

The Wild Knights were an order of Guthixian followers in Эшенфолл. They were tasked with maintaining the balance between civilisation and nature, protecting both the people from the continent's wilds and the wilds from the people. They were known as master scouts and hunters, reportedly surpassing even the garou in skill. The Wild Knights considered any action that harmed the wilds to be an unforgivable crime and would hunt monsters and people alike who threatened the Guthixian balance. The order consisted of archers, warriors, and mages who, despite having a strong camaraderie, often worked alone. Most knights favoured studded leather armour over metal plate, as it offered greater mobility and stealth. Their helms were designed to focus their vision entirely on their target, leading to rumours that their archers never missed. Wild Knight archers were known to ritually maintain their leather armour daily.

There are few gods with a heart so heavy as that of Guthix. Born to the world of Naragun, which was destroyed by warring gods, he achieved ascension in an act of grief-ridden vengeance and has regretted that decision ever since.

He was the first god to discover Gielinor and the powerful anima flow within it, and he used this power to grow stronger. Yet, it was when he discovered the Stone of Jas, a powerful artefact and tool of the Elder Gods, that Guthix would become the legendary figure that he is.

The god of balance slept through the God Wars, only waking to be reminded of the danger that gods represent. He created a powerful barrier to banish the gods, keeping them from returning to this world.

For a time Gielinor was safe and Guthix slept beneath the ground, drawing power from the anima.

Ancient and full of a deep grief, Guthix had come to believe that a world could only be safe if there were no gods left to rule it, and he laid out the path for his own end. He was slain by the Mahjarrat Sliske, which brought an end to the Fifth Age and ushered in the return of the gods.

For a time the world fell into chaos, until powerful heroes forged an alliance and created Edicts of their own, banishing the gods and leaving Gielinor, once more, in the hands of mortals.

I am proud to be one of the Wild Knights, chosen by Guthix to defend people from nature and nature from people. I am a guardian between two worlds, and it fills me with pride. But what I encountered just a few days prior was not from either world."
  2. ↑ Journal entry of Волк, RuneScape: Dragonwilds. "The wolves of Ashenfall are dangerous creatures. Their anima-infused muscles makes them faster. Their razor-sharp teeth would pierce the armour of the Brynmoor villagers. It would be the job of the Wild Knights to hunt them down and prevent them from attacking the human settlements."
  3. ↑ Journal entry of Капюшон дикого лучника, RuneScape: Dragonwilds. "The Wild Knights were known for their ability to scout the wild areas of Ashenfall. They could walk where no one else dared to tread, and they were masters of the hunt — putting even the Garou to shame. Their archers wore sturdy leathers, using carefully laid folds to shield them against harm. They would break easily, but the archers made it part of their ritual to maintain them regularly. Each day, they would wake and tend to the leather, making their armour seem brand new with each morning. The helm is designed to focus the wearer’s vision, so that their target receives all their attention. Distractions are cut out of the picture. Everything exterior to their quarry is removed from view. The archer’s sight is trained on their victim and, so the rumours claimed, they never missed their mark."
  4. ↑ Journal entry of Хлыст Бездны, RuneScape: Dragonwilds. "Only one Wild Knight has ever chosen to wield the whip in vengeance against the demon for a fallen sibling. Her name is dust in the wind of history, but there are still creatures that hide in the shadows, afraid of the crack of her whip."
  5. ↑ Journal entry of Страница древнего журнала, RuneScape: Dragonwilds. "He left. Took some of the faithful with him, those who had not fallen to our cruel prejudices. In his last moments, he tasked the Wild Knights to uphold their oaths, protecting both us from the wild and the wild from us, and then he left. The captain of the Knights took some of the abandoned children under her wing. Those whose parents were lost to our venom. It will be a hard life, but better than they'll have here."
