History

Originally founded as Gehenna Plains by Shin and Taraka. In the fall of 2004, after seeing a demo put on by Querna Tema at a gaming convention, Shin was dedicated to starting a group in Sioux City. For the next several weeks Gehenna Plains existed only in Taraka's back yard and a handful of other places as they struggled to find like minded people to join up. After gathering a handful of players they semi-officially moved to Ravine Park. Around that same time, a player from QT by the name of Hitorimono moved here and was employed at a video game store. After working together for a while one of his coworkers, Zael, approached him about his joining a game called Amtgard. The two separate groups merged immediately and Gehenna Plains continue to grow eventually becoming a barony. The name Gehenna Plains was decided, ; Gehenna is the term for Hell in Jewish lore. Instead of being a spiritual realm, it is a physical city on Earth known for swelteringly hot summers, bitterly cold winters, foul tempered people everywhere and a putrid inescapable stench permeating throughout. It was concluded that if that didn't describe Sioux City to a tee, nothing did.

In 2021 the chapter self demoted to shire and changed the name to Lost Hills.
