So! What's the deal with those? Wiki is like a diary of a madman. I can get bits and pieces from there but not the cohesive timeline and differentiation.
Oh boy, this is a tale...
Let me try to summarize. Tor was part of one of the war islands (I forget which) when it had four realms instead of three; it was based aroudn toren stronghold. Theocracy based around a war god named Tor. Island sunk, worshippers came to dwilight, founded Everguard, war with Astrum they lost, torenist marshal (old character of mine) in an astroist theocracy being a thorn in their side. their most prominent character, karibash da hadez (sp?), was part of astrum after that and still around dwilight (luria now i hear). Out of anyone in BM, he can give you the most details on Tor. It's one of his things.
If only he was willing. :P
I keep pestering the guy IC (cause that's how I roll, I prefer to learn thing IC, the right way, the immerssivve way).
You know who knows all of this by heart? The player of Godric Torrain

Which is the same family I mentioned in my post. Except I got the family name wrong. It's actually ka Habb, not de Hadez, another diffrent old-school family that isn't with us anymore.
Torus Renatus, that is a name I haven't heard in a long time...

That was all your fault and one of the most underrated storylines in the game. All very conveniently forgotten, I'm glad.
It was so deliberately metal, "tremble before the Dead God, our Dread Lord who shall rise again"

I was stranded in Cuba, long story, resend and I'll get back sooner or I'll be going through a ton of messages and get there eventually.

Yeah, it was a shame that I had a greater opportunity come along in its early days. But when someone offers you the keys to the biggest religion on the island... Wellll....

10/10 would read an RP about your character dreaming about the hell of being stuck at an airport, not understanding anything that's going on around him and people looking at him like nothing is out of the ordinary, which only infuriates him further, given his appearance.

Godric? I'll write that. I'll write it about my time wandering Tokyo Narita.

Karibash is general of Astrum now. And it was from the non-donor island, the South-East Island (South-west was the donor one). They all rallied up in Springdale with the rest of the Toren guys. Old rivalries were maintained, though, as the players of the competing SEI realm of Taselak settled up right on their doorsteps. After they went to Gelene, we went to Eidulb. But they had a good advance, and pushed us off, and so Caerwyn resettled to Golden Farrow instead.
Everguard was a bellicose realm. Eventually, they picked a fight with Astrum, and lost.
A pity, though, their realm was a gem, even if I did all I could to make them fail back then. :P
The burgeoning Aaronist Pantheon of East Continent now features a god called roT the slain ;).
