Early life
Arthas was born in the year 1568, just after the Sack of Seahelm, during his time in the Dreadlands, Arthas was trained by the best Rurik commanders, aswell as taught the ways of the faith, Arthas began to get very interested and studied it more then combat, or horseback riding, which was very un usual for a Ruric at that time, as it was a time of warfare for the Norlanders. The Dreadlands eventually fell after hearing rumours of an Orenian invasion, Arthas fled with his people and continued to study the teaching of Allfatherism, not much else is known of Arthas until the eventual return of the Norlanders during the Eagles rebellion where he would be named High Keeper of the faith.
As High Keeper
Arthas was inducted as High Keeper in the year 1591 by the Norlandic people under the reign of Arytom Ruric, for his first few years he spent the majority of his time amassing followers to the faith aswell as baptising the already Norlanders, this went very smoothly having the Red Faith followers reaching an all time high, the faith flourished during the reigns of Arytom and Javier, although things began to go side ways when Javier tore down the Red Faith temple with the intention of re constructing The Krag, this angered Arthas very much, he later issued a document denouncing Javier aswell as calling a moot upon him, Javier a few months after the moot was declared abdicated to his son Jevan due to poor health, Jevan not beliving the rules applied to him went and crowned himself King of Norland. Arthas after attempting to reason with Jevan to go through with the moot, pulled the entirety of the Red Faith priests and guards out of the Norlandic military, and instead marched alongside the crusader forces defeating the Norlanders at the Siege of Vjorhelm, with Jevan going missing during the battle, the moot was held and Jory Ruric was crowned King of Norland, a few days later a peace conference would be held between Norland and Renatus, leading to Norland becoming a vassal state of Renatus, later that month the remnants would move to Atlas, throughout the majority of Arthas's reign in Atlas he continued to build up the faith, and work on the Red scrolls until an incident within Hearthton resulting in two Norlandic deaths, eventually finding out that this was the doing of magic, Arthas declared that all magic was banned from Norland, he would then order all this priests to hunt down all magic users residing within magic, thusly marking the beginnning of the All fathers eternal war on magic. Arthas would also involve the Faith in the war between the rebellious Kingdom of Arbor and Kingdom of Norland, being a major part in its downfall, we would also insert the faith into the war between Curon and Norland.
