Upon Duke Cyneric’s rise to power and the formation of the Duchy of Cremoria, he began to form a guild to protect his home and family legacy. The groundwork for this guild had been born out of Kurisio Torrin’s efforts in re-establishing Lysoria and expanding the territory of the County of Vesiryn. However, it would not be officially established until Cyneric’s rise to power in the modern day.
This guild would come to be known as the Bulwark Corps, a Mason’s Guild centered in his homeland and serving the lands surrounding. It was thanks to the efforts of the forerunners of this guild that Lysoria stands proudly as the grand walled city, a true pinnacle of the skill of the mason workers and architects that helped to found the guild.
Overtime, more and more branches of the Guild are being created throughout Cremoria and other lands. Many well known figures have come to the Bulwark Corps seeking their advanced skills as their School provides some of the best research and development on architecture that mannkind has seen.
