History

817 Blackthorn is founded

899 Blackthorn declared war on Rosalba and destroyed them, claiming their Vis sources.

931 Blackthorn claims the vis sources owned by the Covenant of Sursum which was completely destroyed - including every magus - by a mundane army seeking the Cornish King.

1062 Blackthorn, with aid from a Norman Army, destroyed the Covenant of Tagelyn. They originally were a patron of Tagelyn, and a few of its members had once belonged to Blackthorn.
The covenfolk were slaughtered and the magi were driven from their caves, which Blackthorn now controls. Again, Blackthorn was never held accountable for their crimes.

1159 A now-dead member of Blackthorn, Flumen, imprisoned The Hunt, a powerful Faerie which is once again free.
The initial trapping of this Faerie likely would have been a breaking of the code, but this was never brought to tribunal. In fact it was used as a feat which Flumen performed to achieve the title of Archmage.
