    All orphans ? Pre-immortal orphans ? lol
    No, my friend, never pre-Immortals lol She doesn't trust other female Immortals, remember?
    And yes, she's trained hundreds. Most of the girl orphans she trains come from abused backgrounds, so she sees it as rescuing them and giving them purpose.

    • Could be an interesting idea. She is, after all, the Black Queen, and in later centuries, unlike the SIS, Brimstone/the Hellfire Club moved away from politics and more into personal gain, criminal enterprises, and basically being a pain in the ass for the SIS.

        • Thanks for the latest chronicles, my friend. Once again, much appreciated!
          Re: Carter Wellan; yeah, i think the actor from the series is a good choice, setting him apart from other Western Immortals.

          I'll have the next SIS/Brimstone chapter up ASAP.

          Cheers

          • For me, Carter was different from other Western Immortals because he was a clearly Caucasian male in a centuries-long partnership with a Muslim Immortal immersed in the Middle Eastern world, and to top it all was blond haired, standing out from the Asian crowd as it were! Lol

            I'll have those Brazilian names for you soon, as well as the next SIS/Brimstone instalment.

            Cheers

            • Okay, here's the next instalment of the SIS/Brimstone saga:

              1037 - Ailef, Elfrida and Saegar are at Harold's side in London as he is recognised as King of England in his own right.
              On the advice of Ailef, Harold exiles Emma of Normandy to Bruges. Richeard sends Alfgar to Bruges to meet with Emma and gather information on Ailef.

              1039 - Elfrida leads an unsuccessful English invasion of Wales.

              1040 - 17 Mar: Harold Harefoot, King of England, dies.
              June: Ailef, Elfrida and Saegar are at Sandwich, Kent, as Harthacanute lands and becomes King of England.

              1041 - Elfrida puts down a rebellion in Worcester.
              Ailef conspires with Siward, Earl of Northumbria, to murder Eadwulf III of Bamburgh, thus incorporating Bernicia into Northumbria. Siward thus becomes an ally of Ailef and owes him a favour.
              Edward the Confessor returns from exile to become the heir of Harthacanute, and is approached by Ailef, who offers to help him attain the throne.

              TO BE CONTINUED

                • Good job, my friend, i loved the story of Anna Flavia Salvador and the way she turned against her abusive husband. A modern tale in the Immortal story. Great work.

                  Here's the next chapter in the SIS/Brimstone saga:

                  1042 - 8 June: Harthacanute dies at a feast, poisoned by Elfrida on the orders of Ailef, and is succeeded by his half-brother Edward the Confessor as King of England.

                  1043 - 3 April: Ailef, Elfrida and Saegar attend the coronation of Edward the Confessor at Winchester Cathedral.

                  1047 - 10 August: Battle of Val-es-Dunes; Richeard and Alfgar fight with William, Duke of Normandy and King Henry I of France as they secure control of Normandy by defeating rebel Norman barons at Caen.

                  1048 - Elfrida and her Valkyries help drive off the last Viking raid on England. The unsuccessful raiders flee to Flanders.
                  King Edward, at the urging of Ailef, goes to war against Flanders, blockading the English Channel with a fleet based at Sandwich.

                  1050 - The first dispute begins between Ailef and Elfrida over who they should support on the throne of England. Ailef continues to back Edward, but Elfrida has begun a relationship with the 22-year-old Harold Godwinson, son of Godwin, Earl of Wessex, who she sees as the future King and more dependable than Edward.

                  • Still going through my old chronicles, my friend, and it's taking awhile to sort them all out, so haven't found that Immortal you're looking for yet. When i find it, you'll be the first to know! Lol

                    Once i'm updated with all the currently active and inactive Immortals which you're so kindly helping me with, i'll be trying to sort out all the deceased Immortals and updating those.

                    The next chapter of the SIS/Brimstone saga:

                    1051 - Richeard and Alfgar help William of Normandy counter the ambitions of Geoffrey Martel, the Count of Anjou, when he occupies the county of Maine. Together with King Henry of France, they succeed in driving Geoffrey from the county, and in the process, William is able to secure the strategically important Belleme family strongholds at Alencon and Domfort.
                    September: Godwin, Earl of Wessex, is exiled from England by King Edward the Confessor, for refusing to take action against the townspeople of Dover. Ailef suspects Elfrida had a hand in Godwin's actions and confronts her outside London. She accuses him of following a weak king and of losing his touch, but Ailef asserts his authority and threatens to have her arrested and exiled. Saegar and armed soldiers arrive to back up Ailef, but Elfrida's Valkyries have also accompanied their mistress, and a stalemate ensues. Both Ailef and Elfrida agree an uneasy truce, but a century of trust between the two is broken. The future White King and Black Queen of Brimstone/Hellfire Club would from this moment on work together only for mutual gain rather than the trust and friendship they once shared.

                    TO BE CONTINUED

                    Could you post the active and inactive Immortals of Central and Eastern Europe, please.

                    • You're right about the presence of other Immortals during the SIS/Brimstone conflict, so I've created a couple of hopefully interesting chronicles, which i hope you'll help me flesh out a bit:

                      Caedela of Haestinges

                      Most recent base of operations: Dover, Kingdom
                      of England
                      Occupation: Rebel leader
                      Prior occupations: Peasant farmer, blacksmith
                      Roster of Immortals Status: Deceased
                      Date: September 1051
                      Place: Dover
                      Victor: Saegar Lightfingers, aka Sampson
                      Brass
                      Watcher: Dremca of Dover.

                      Original cultural affiliation: Saxon
                      Born: 526, Kingdom of Haestinges
                      First death: 557, blacksmith murdered by a wealthy
                      client for failing to deliver a sword on time
                      First teacher: (any ideas?)

                      For six years Caedela was one of the most prominent leaders of organised resistance in Dover, protesting the rule of Edward the Confessor and his extortionate taxes. Always a supporter of the common man, Caedela had nearly five centuries as a lone outlaw fighting the nobility on behalf of the peasantry, so it was no surprise when he led a violent clash between the people of Dover and the visiting Eustace II, Count of Boulogne. After Godwin, Earl of Wessex, refused to punish the people of Dover, Immortal schemer Ailef of Deira, an adviser to Edward, sent his hatchet man, fellow Immortal Saegar Lightfingers, and a small band of trained thugs to root out the rebels and kill them. Sixteen men and women, the leaders of the resistance, were brutally murdered by Saegar and his henchmen. Caedela challenged his fellow Immortal to a private duel, as is the Immortal way, but Saegar, as is his wont, set his thugs upon Caedela first, weakening him. Still, Caedela killed five of his attackers but was so badly battered and wounded, that it was easy for Saegar to inflict a fatal blow. After sending his men away to mop up any stragglers, Saegar dragged Caedela into the woods and struck off his head. The act of the coward that he is.

                      Dremca of Dover, 1051

                      Huidemar of Avranches

                      Most recent base of operations: Caen,
                      Normandy
                      Occupation: Captain in the army of Guy of
                      Brionne, son of Reginald I, Count of Burgundy
                      Prior occupations: Mercenary sword, soldier
                      Roster of Immortals Status: Deceased
                      Date: 10 August 1047
                      Place: Battle of Val-es-Dunes, near Caen
                      Victor: Richeard of Mercia
                      Watcher: Research, Medieval Europe

                      Original cultural affiliation: Gallic
                      Born: 461, Kingdom of Soissons, Western
                      Roman Empire
                      First death: 485; soldier in town militia killed in
                      Saxon raid
                      First teacher: (any ideas?)

                      Huidemar of Avranches was a Norman Immortal who fought by the side of the rebel Norman barons led by Guy of Brionne against the forces of William of Normandy. A life-long soldier, he spent his immortality roaming from one battlefield to another usually fighting for whoever paid him the most. At the Battle of Val-es-Dunes, he came up against Saxon Immortal Richeard of Mercia, future leader of the SIS. They fought a private duel after the battle in the nearby present-day town of Canteville and Huidemar proved no match for the wily Richeard, even at this time one of the most skilled swordsmen in the Immortal community.

                        • Thanks for completing the bios, my friend, great work. And yes, i'm going to go back and create some chronicles for the time period I've done so far, which i'll get you to help me complete. I need some Immortal victims for Aldrich and Evangeline! Lol

                          Do you have the active and inactive Immortals of Central and Eastern Europe?

                            Can you find those Indian names ? Unless you are too busy with the Hellfire Club timeline ;-)

                            • No worries, my friend i'll get you those Indian names ASAP. In the meantime, you asked for it!

                              Beathan of Ce

                              Most recent base of operations: Northumbria
                              Occupation: Warrior
                              Prior occupations: Ditto

                              Date: 710
                              Place: Northumbria
                              Victor: Ailef of Deira, aka Aldrich Monk
                              Watcher: Research, Immortals of the British Isles

                              Original cultural affiliation: Pict
                              Born: 236, Kingdom of Ce, Scotland
                              First death: 269; killed in tribal warfare
                              First teacher: Undetermined

                              One of the earliest Pictish Immortals on record, somewhat of a legend in Dark Ages Scotland as a formidable warrior, invincible in battle, often described as "bathed in the blood of his foes", though in hindsight, this was probably his own blood from the many wounds he suffered in battle. During the Pict invasion of Northumbria in 710, he fought Ailef of Deira, who along with Richeard of Mercia, was fighting with the Northumbrians. Beathan is most notable as the first recorded kill of the infamous Aldrich Monk.

                              Any chance you could fill in the blanks?

                                  conversation with Basalok

                                  Who would have thought Milos Arczynski the lover of mortal woman was a player of the Game after all. He has been conclusively identified behind the deaths of at least three Immortal women in the last decades and a dozen more in the previous five centuries of his immortality. Watcher research can lead us in surprising discoveries sometimes. The women were identified as Florica Marga, Cecelia Holtzmann and Zizi Szabo, all killed during lecture tours of Professor Arczysnki at the universities located in cities where those women lived. but we have an inkling there are more killed over the centuries.

                                  To the outside world, Alex Raven presents a pretty intimidating front. She's a small ball of leather-clad attitude with a wicked right hook and an even more wicked blade. If you project a strong enough front, no one tries to get close to you, and you don't get hurt, physically or emotionally. Or at least that's the theory.
                                  It would be easy to think that's all there is to Alex, but to understand what she's really like, you need to watch and understand Max. Max Leiner is a good man, one of the best I've ever seen, and a wise one, wiser in some ways than many Immortals ten times his age. And what Max is today is a product of what he was taught and shown, first by his father, and then by Alex. Max is their child as much as any child is the product of their biological parents -- Max is the best of David and Alex in combination. Max loves Alex unconditionally, not only because she mothered him, not only because she saved his life, but because he can see the good shining within her, he knows what she's really like. Max trusts Alex not only with his own life, but with the lives and memories of his people. To Max, Alex is a good, righteous, and caring person, and that's a good enough recommendation for me.

                                  Rojek's last quarry was Ionel Oltenau in Romania . I wonder what he has accomplished by taking his head. Did he enjoy his Quickening ? I cannot help but notice that most players of the Game are either delusional, psychotic or self-righteous champions of good vs evil (aren't you, Mister MacLeod), bent on challenging and killing immortals until only one remains; I know, it is the point of the Game, but look at it this way : of the five hundred plus immortals living on Earth presently, 88% are living AWAY from the Game : they don't take challenges, and avoid each others, or sometimes befriend each others, but the point is : they don't spend their time taking heads.
                                  Most of the so-called "k'immies" who were active during the nineties are now dead, the world is a much better place. But still, a nice guy like Oltenau died and it's a painful reminder that the Game is still there, after all.

                                  A daughter of a priest wore men's clothing, rode horses, and could fire a gun. One day the king saw this "young man", but his servants insisted that the "young man" was in fact a girl. The king did not believe the servants; he wrote to the priest asking him if his "son" could have dinner with him. The priest sent his daughter to the king’s home. Before she arrived, the king sought advice from the witch regarding the true identity of the "young man". The witch advised the king to do many different things to test if Vasilisa is a girl or not, such as place an embroidery frame and a gun positioned on a wall and to see which object she will notice first. If she is a girl she will notice the frame first, and vice-versa. The "young man" passed every test, but the king remained doubtful. The king tries several times to find the true identity, but on the last time the king asked the "young man" to take a bath with him, and the "young man" agreed. While the king undressed, the "young man" undressed, bathed quickly and fled, leaving a note for the king saying

                                  "Ah King Barkhat, raven that you are, you could not surprise the falcon in the garden! For I am not Vasily Vasilyevna, but Vasilisa Vasilyevna"

                                  The Novgorod Republic, together with Pskov retained some degree of autonomy during the time of the Mongol invasion of mid-13th century and were largely spared the atrocities that affected the rest of the
                                  country. Led by Prince Alexander Nevsky, Novgorodians repelled the invading Swedes in the Battle of
                                  the Neva in 1240, as well as the Germanic crusaders in the Battle of the Ice in 1242, breaking their attempts to colonize the Northern Rus'.
                                  From 1232 to 1242, Father Garnoff settled in Novgorod where he administered the spiritual needs of the locals, playing the Game at one point, when he challenged immortal woman Vasilisa Vasilyevna who joined the army of Pince Nevsky against the Swedes; during the battle, Garnoff's Watcher was killed, his opponent went missing and was thought killed. Vasilisa didn't re-aappear in the Watcher chronicles before this year's Immortals War.

She finally decided to play the Game for good and discovered she had quite a talent with swords, cutlasses and kitchen knives. Took out six immortals, including three who came after her. She looks like a mere slip of a girl, but is a wicked lady when things get pushy. However, she cannot resist mature men and good-looking Immortals which may prove to be her downfall after all.

                                  Original cultural affiliation : English
                                  Born : 1717; Bedford, England
                                  First death : 1746; Highwayman ambushing
                                  Swenja Batz and Lootje De Groot
                                  First teachers : Swenja Baatz and Lootje De Groot
                                  Known past associates : Swenja Baatz, Lootje De
                                  Groot, Amanda, Viktor Hansen, Andrew Franklin
                                  First recorded sighting :1746; the road from
                                  Ipswich to Bedford. Tried to rob Swenja and Lootje
                                  who laughed, killed him and then mentored him

                                  In 1746, Swenja Baatz and Lootje De Groot were travelling from Ipswich, fresh from having kiled Irishman Ethan Callaghan and were going on with their business as highwaywomen. On the road, while travelling to Bedford, they had the surprise to meet a pre-immortal highwayman who tried to rob them from their money and other valuables; the two women felt the pre-immortal presence from Markham and looked at him with a knowing smilebefore Swenja drew her pistol and shot him in the heart. When Markham came back from the dead, he had his would-be victims by his side who explained to him exactly why he wasn’t dead; with his new friends’ teachings, he discovered the world was his playgound and that he could be anything he ever dreamt of. The trio then spent two years robbing the riches,giving only to themsevles before Swenja decided to end their little menage à trois and to leave for Cornwall; they ended their relationship with Markham by suggestign he makes the most of his immortality... and he did, constantly living on the fringes of the Law, evading the attentions of the like of Charles Mako or Matthew of Salisbury, associating himself with immortals such as Viktor Hansen or Amanda.

                                  From the Chronicle of Derek Markham :

                                  My father told me what kind of lousy scum I was going to Watch, he didn't prepare me to encounter such a despicable character : egocentric, cowardly, cunning, greedy, obsessed with women and especially with the ancient lady Who made the mistake of associating herself with him. Amanda should have known better, according to what Watcher Archives sent me about her. The two associates were involved in some kidnapping racked, targeting children of London's upper society. This time, the game turned sour with the kidnapped child accidentally killed by Markham. Amanda angrily turned on him and threatened to feed him to the policemen only to feel Markham's sword to her throat.
                                  Amanda being the only witness of Markham's crimes, he offered her a choice : marry him or die. A wife cannot testify against her husband on court, he reasoned. Amanda, not too good with a sword, agreed and the "lovebirds" were married by a defroqued priest in the hour. But Amanda, amoral thief and loving to mortals, sold her husband to the constable winning the gratitude of a family of mortals and the undying hatred of her ex-husband.

                                    IMMORTALS OF MOTHER RUSSIA (BMR)

                                    Immortals of Mother Russia (Byessmyertniye Matyere Rosseya) or BMR is an organisation of immortals dedicatied to protect their homeland from external
                                    and internal threats. They have made rabid ennemies over the centuries and have adapted to political changes over times, from Ivan the Terrible-era to the fall of the Communism. Their goal is to preserve the traditions and customs of their great nation, however great the cost. They are a merciless team, dubbbing themselves 'Winter Soldier' after the devastating climate that utterly destroyed the armies of Napoleon in 1812 and of Adolf Hitler during WWII.

                                    Although devoted soldiers of their homeland and proficient players of the Game - Vera Dionisy is even more dangerous than Barkhov himself, the small group isn't made of fanatics : Barkhov and his colleagues have seen empires rise and fall in four hundred years (eight hundred in the case of Sadko) and are aware that the ennemies of yesterday will be the allies of tomorrow.

                                    After having fought side by side with the England-faring SIS and the America-born CIA during WWII, they kept their distance during the Cold War, but have now resumed their relationship with Richeard of Mercia and Thomas Morehead's teams. They are also close allies of the Ravenwood group but keep themselves distant from Immortal Maiden and the China Force.

                                    The original BMR was made up of the Bogatyris, legendary warriors Tyros of Babylon, Illya Muromets, Dobrynya Nikitich and Alyosha Popovich who were active from the
                                    10th century to late 15th century when they were killed by the fearsome Kurgan.
                                    Fortunately for mother Russia, the spirit of the BMR didn't die, the flame has been kept by Dimitri Barkhov and his team of four immortals : Kir Bulchyev, Vasily Dionisy, Vera Dionisy and Sadko, surviving member of the original BMR
                                    who survived an encounter with the Kurgan using trickery.

                                    When Barkhov co-founded the new BMR with Kir Bulchyev and the Dionisy husband-and-wife team, he started looking for a fourth associate and wxent in search of Sadko, independent agent of the Bogatyris. When he found Sadko, he gave him the choice between losing his head for allowing the Kurgan to kill the Bogatyris or join the team he was creating. Over the centuries, Sadko has paid his debt to the memory of his departed friends and is now a pillar of Russia's immortal front.

                                    After WWII, when Eastern countries fell under the control of the newly-born Soviet Union, the BMR had no choice but to infiltrate the Party, biding their time, waiting for opportunities to curb the regimen's violent tendencies.
                                    Through political manipulations and assassinations, they suceeded over time and recruited agents from satellite countries of the Eastern block. When Anton Vanko, his prize student and former colonel of Russia imperial army turned rogue after the disintegration of the USSR, he allowed Maude de Valerie the necessary mandate to terminate Vanko. The fact that he welcomed a member of the Ravenwood organisation in his country speaks volume about his eagerness to create a solid relationship with Westerner immortals.

                                    Kuchinka is currently in charge of security at the Minsk Nuclear Facility. He was put in charge after the higher ups discovered a discrepancy in the inventory. He has been going through the staff with an intensive focus that can be quite unnerving. But it is not as unnerving as knowing that components to make a nuclear device are unaccounted for.
                                    He has always been an honorable player in the Game and when waging war, he never liked the idea of Weapons of Mass Destruction. So he is quite motivated personally and professionally to find out where they have gone.
                                    He returned to Russia in 1994 after the collapse of the communist regime, something he had been hoping for since the murder of the czar Nicholas and the Russian royal family in 1917. I think it had been his hope to see the return of the Romanov’s to power.

                                    Sometimes I wonder how so many immortal women manage to survive the Game, the agressions from men, the wars, the revolutions and the gulags in Stalinist Russia. Maria Rostov is an exeptional woman in a community of exeptional beings with good weapons, aside from her Tatar saber : her strenght, her determination, her will to live, to survive. She is a strong woman, indeed, molded that way by her teacher, Maria Zhuganova, herself a student of the Kurgan. Zhuganova is dead, but she lives through Maria Rostov.
                                    Maria has been doing remarkable progress in cellular research and in the study of Quickenings, of immortals regeneration. I think she want to help mankind that way: by trying to impart humanity with the gift of fast -healing, so that no one has to suffer from any disease anymore. My belief is that some gifts aren't fit for humanity, but Maria won't consider my point of view. She is really determined.

                                      Original cultural affiliation: Umayyad Arab
                                      Born: 662, Damascus, Umayyad Caliphate
                                      First death: 683; during the Second Fitna, a period
                                      of general political and military disorder following the
                                      death of Caliph Muawiyah I
                                      First teacher: Faiz Raboud

                                      Faiz and Musaed were a pair of Immortals encountered by Richeard of Mercia and Ailef of Deira during their exile in Byzantium when they fought for Leo III against the Umayyad Arabs. Research confirms that Faiz found Musaed after the merchant trader had been killed by Alid rebels during the Second Fitna. He trained him in swordsmanship and the two fought many battles together across the Arab world until their fateful encounter with the two Saxon Immortals at the Battle of Akroinon.

                                        • Thanks, my friend, for completing those chronicles, your help is much appreciated!

                                          I have three more for you:

                                          From the Chronicle of the Hellfire Club:

                                          Thanks to new information provided by Richeard of Mercia, leader of the SIS, we are finally able to close the chronicles of three Immortals, all women, whose decapitated bodies were found in the 8th century but no Immortal was ever credited with their deaths. In fact, for centuries we suspected they were killed by three different Immortals who were operating in or around Saxony at the time. Now though, we can confirm that their killer is none other than Aldrich Monk, who at the time was known by his birth name Ailef of Deira. According to Richeard, Aldrich was already exhibiting misogynistic tendencies and, tying in with what we know about his antagonistic relationship with the Club's Black Queen Evangeline Black, and Richeard's assertion that Aldrich would have seen those Immortals as easy Quickenings, we are confident Monk is their killer.

                                                • Great chronicles as usual, my friend. More Immortals to add to the active/inactive list. It seems more survived the Immortals War than originally thought! Lol

                                                  In the meantime, another Immortal i'd appreciate your help fleshing out:

                                                  First teacher: (any ideas?)

                                                  After Ailef of Deira, aka Aldrich Monk, broke his friendship with Richeard of Mercia and left England for Denmark, he sought to offer his services to the Viking King Horik I. But these things are never easy when it comes to the Norsemen. To prove he was worthy enough to be useful to Horik, Aldrich was made to fight the king's champion, the huge and imposing Immortal Asbjorn Blacktooth. But the smaller and faster Aldrich outfought Asbjorn, dancing around him like a mongoose and brought him to his knees. The lightning show after Aldrich took Asbjorn's head, convinced Horik to accept the offer of the Saxon Immortal.
