nivremis Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) When darkness sweeps across the land, Choking life with blight Come forth from fabled Angel's Peak A hero of the light. Born a mortal, child of dwarf, Clad in shining faith, With heaven's hosts by his side, He'll vanquish evil's wraiths. As foretold by the prophecy of old, Nivre was born a dwarf, but that remains all he knows of his heritage. Ever since he could remember, he'd been raised in Angel's Peak, a sacred temple of light hidden high in the mountains, mentored by 3 of the greatest paladins of the era. One night, he'd awoken having dreamt of wandering in a world shrouded in darkness. When he had told his mentors, they'd exchanged knowing looks and told him of the prophecy. Within a month, he'd made ready to leave Angel's Peak to seek out his destiny.. I've been a lurking in these forums for a long time, having only really gotten out of my dark ages not too long ago. I've been in awe of many of the awesome mocs i've seen here and I'd love to be part of it all. As it is, I'm still deciding on a guild to join, what's holding me back's a low brick count (what you see here is about 95% of my usable bricks as it is). This is also my first real moc (rainbow castles almost 20 years ago aside ). Edited March 18, 2013 by nivremis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niku Posted March 18, 2013 I like this moc, and the inclusion of the Chima figs surely gives a nice touch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickington Posted March 18, 2013 Nice little MOC. If I were you I would join Mitgardia, they are the friendly ones to the dwarves. However, Nocturnus is in great need of new members. So I just just gave you no help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted March 18, 2013 Very good intro The figs are superb and I like the rockwork, especially the path to the shrine Mitgardia would love to have you, there's lots of dwarves here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Carson Haupt- Posted March 19, 2013 Looks great! Avalonian would definitely welcome you! One question, where did you get that hood from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkaForHire Posted March 19, 2013 I guess I better chime in here. Clearly, Kaliphlin would love you the most. Also, great intro MOC. I really like the angels, and you have some nice vegetation and the rocks look good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brickboy12 Posted March 19, 2013 Avalonia would obviously take you in with a hand of hospitality. But you might like to build in varlyrio with those lovely gold pieces however you can't join varlyrio because no one is allowed to.JION AVALONIA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maxim I Posted March 19, 2013 Seriously avalonians? He got a lot of white, gold and rocks! Also some drow figures, So definetely he comes from the southern rakath mountains. I would say kaliphlin ! However, if you love trashtalking, nocturnus is also a place where you would fit well! Really great intro and amazing moc!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PsyKater Posted March 19, 2013 Just noticed the white hoods. Did you paint them yourselves? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kai NRG Posted March 19, 2013 Nice job, as others have mentioned the Chima figs look great here! Honestly what you've got right now seems to say Mitgardian to me, just because they have the rocky up-to-the-sky mountains, but of course my bias says join Kaliphlin!

de Gothia Posted March 19, 2013 Looks great! Welcome to GoH! Choose the guild which suits you the best... Avalonia have many members so if you feel like, you can choose one of the others to help them grow stronger... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gideon Posted March 19, 2013 (edited) Welcome to GoH! Nice to see more lurkers breaking their silence here I love the minifig designs, especially the angels. But where did you get those white hoods? On the topic of guild choice: Of course the white building with gold dome has a distinct Kaliphlin look to it ;) Edited March 19, 2013 by Gideon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robuko Posted March 19, 2013 (edited) Wow, another amazing intro! Welcome to the Guilds of Historica, nivremis. A Paladin raised in a neo-Assyrian temple kind of shouts "Kaliphlin" to me, but you would find a warm welcome in any Guild. For a first real moc, your build and presentation are impressive.

nivremis Posted March 19, 2013 Thank you all so much for the kind encouraging words, certainly didn't expect this many positive replies. I AM torn between kaliphlin and mitgardia, but I guess I'll work it out. ' For those who were asking, the white hoods are just some dodgy brown ones I'd painted over. Oh and: Where is the beard? Just had a shave but it'll probably grow back soon I'm guessing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike S Posted March 19, 2013 Great intro! Welcome to GoH. I too was wondering where u got a hold of white hoods and I must say u did a fine job painting them as I could never tell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkaForHire Posted March 19, 2013 I kind of like the new bidding for new member's attention lately. I think it provides a good welcome, especially to those who are undecided. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ecclesiastes Posted March 19, 2013 Most welcome! And man wish there were official white hoods, they look so good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunman Posted March 19, 2013 welcome dude :) idd these white hoods are lovely.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nivremis Posted March 19, 2013 (edited) Mm no regrets painting the hoods at all, especially considering how cheap brown ones are on BL. Sometimes I wish I wasn't a purist. Now now just start with one hood... Just one measly little piece .. a minute with a can of spray and you're done....
