DROW'S EXTRA SHORT GUIDE TO THERA'S CABALS.
Well, after your petty whimpery pleas and Torkalen's incessant whining I submit. What lies before you is essential, concise and up to date scroll on Thera's "elite". Warlord The "we hate magic but please locate this for me while I gobble down some magic mushrooms and lap up some crystal clear, refreshing water out of this magical spring" cabal. This band of brutes roam the realm in search of battle excellence, rare and far between are those that achieve it even remotely. Most of their days are spent plundering Winter or running Seringale's battlements to no end. Although their guidelines and perception of honor are clearly stated in cabal scrolls they tend to start their excuses with "My understanding of honor is...". Good for: Leaving in middle of Winter ("Word out everyone! Oh, darn eh?"). Justice With great power comes great responsibility... Sadly rarely do in this equation come great men. This cabal in last few years seems to have only one perquisite. To get a shiny badge you have to... be lawful. Tracking skills, knowledge of cabal guidelines and common sense are not all that high on the list nowadays. All this results in Justice's lifespan being shorter then most of Lord Burzuk's inspired speeches. Their main purpose is getting in the way of young ones having fun, being corrupt and making our beloved J blush like a maiden. Good for: Breaking down their ranking by constantly reporting attacks in protected areas. They do decent at filling Mystique's obituaries section. Assassin Would that I could tell you anything on this bunch, rare as they are. But since I have no lustful desire to find my name on Vinnie's permanent black list we will conclude by saying they kill folk for gold. Good for: Killing folk for gold. Legion They are supposed to be elite evil force of Thera, hungering power and infusing fear in common folk ..... maybe once, long, long ago. Today they are no more then motley bunch of wish-to-bes and think-to-bes giving endless grief to their Lords. You can be pretty sure that fellow is a legion if: They are auctioning bunch of low-end rares, bashing healer six ranks under, not coming to legion cabal when you invade it. Good for: Oh, hell you tell me.., Knight Bunch of orphans whose parents were slayed by this or that evildoer come knocking at the Castle's gate in quest for revenge, becoming a pillar of light and a gaining fancy horse to ride upon. Upon being embraced into the light they become a target for usually cheap ego-lift of every evil. Their trademarks are clich drawn out dialogues before they attack opened with such retarded questions as "Are thou up to no good Sire?", no us drow shamans are into charity work... Good for: "I wish to convert" jests if near death due to boredom. Herald Save the best for last. Rrright. This bunch of frustrated wimpy folk like as not tried all or any of afore mentioned cabals and were laughed at or booted out on the shortest possible notice. So now they try to hide their weakness behind empty lines such as "Pen is stronger then the sword!" (please!) and cover under pretense of pacifism and questionable valuable services they provide for Thera. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that nothing of worth ever came from the Scribes, just that it was VERY little of it. Good for: Venting your frustration. Quick way of getting set of worn steel and adamantite mace (if lucky). That would be cabals in nutshell if you haven't recognized yourself in any of them, good for you. Istina |
