Cult of the Balor De'Morte
Image

Image

All members of the cult are called Anon. ((derived from anonymous or anonomi. Anon is said the same way as a Soviet would have said 'comrade'))

In the cult, there is no individual. Evil is not one person, it is an idea. The cult is faceless, every man wears a mask. Since there is no face, there is no individual. We serve Bjolmur, not ourselves. We must please her, and she will gift her loyal followers with the Death Balor! Give her all of your power with your praise! This cult is not for greedy fools, wishing to become a master over men. There is no mortal master. The council speaks for Bjolmur, because Bjolmur speaks to them. Bjolmur is master, the Death Balor is our goal. Spend your riches on swords and steel, they will win you Bjolmur's favor! The cult operates as one: once you join, you are part of a body. If you leave the body, you will die. The cult must infect, must destroy, must hurt, must kill! Your only love is for Bjolmur! Her love is for the evil deeds you do. Do not harm the body. Kill an ally, and you only harm your goal to serve as one. The weak will be killed, but this will be done only by the will of Bjolmur. Do not have pride, for you are not an individual. Have pride in Bjolmur, for she is your queen!

Events and Meetings:

((Events will be posted in the internal forum))


Admittance:
All who are willing and wishing to join our Order are requested to send a dove or personally meet any of the five council members within the guild. Pinning a note on this wall is also acceptable, but dangerous. Use a code-name or you will not be permitted entrance.


((Squires and Pages distributed based on Timezone))

Current members of the Knighthood:
Rankings: Bjolmur is Master. The council of five are the original cult founders, whom Bjolmur called upon to serve. They vote on the cult's actions. Should a councilor die, they will be replaced by whoever Bjolmur favors. The council of five must be obeyed, for they do not speak for themselves, but for Bjolmur. They will not order you through their own will. All other cultists are equal. However, certain parts of a body are stronger. This does not grant them more authority, but the stronger members will train the newer ones. Members are promoted by their tutors. If you beleive you are strong enough to train other members, you must speak to a tutor, or the council. (Tutors are Antipaladins and Dark Priests. They all train in different areas.)

Master

Bjolmur- She who whispers in the dark. The dark lady is the master of the cult, no mortal. The council members seek her guidance, and vote for what will please her most.

Image

Council Members
There are five council members. The council priests consult Bjolmur, and the Antipaladins give tactical opinion. These members are Dark Priests or Antipaladins, they directly serve Bjolmur. They also count as tutors of their specialty, and can take members as squires, pages, etc.. The council will vote on the cult's actions, and the number five ensures that there cannot be a tie. All council members have equal power, there is no mortal leader.


Cult Members
The main body of the cult. Composed of Antipaladins, Dark Priests, Rogues, Crafters, and any other initiated member serving the cult.


Refugee Criminals
These are men that have come to the cult for concealment from the law. They will be expected to lay low and serve the cult with servant tasks for all members.

((OOC Rules – 14 Rules to play “Evil”
Because this is an “Evil” Guild – some OOC rules are needed to keep things fun or the GM’s & players will be pissed or worse, you may be banned!
1. Avoid using Building Shadows at all costs! GM’s hate those.
2. Always RP a description and use 2 clear emotes before attack. Players hate when you don’t.
3. Allow the other person to RP or run away before you attack. Macro Emotes not good enough, allow some time.
4. When they ‘Stumble back” – do not cloud them unless they refuse to RP, attack you, or run away.
5. Make sure the Ghost can reach a cross. Be helpful if you can.
6. Never attack again right after revival. Going away for a while is best.
7. It’s all about having fun for all players, don’t forget that!
8. Always PM players before a major attack or raid on their village or guild. Be cooperative.
9. Fires – NEVER start wildfires. You will be banned.
10. When a GM pulls you to talk, be polite and admit what you did, be helpful.
11. Always accept the finding of the GM. Always accept the punishment. Be a good sport about the situation. Just don’t do it again.
12. Evil is really hard to play, so try as best as you can. Ask for advice.
13. Give players enough time to respond to your emotes. Play it VERY slow with german characters, since they cannot always understand english.
14. Break these rules and you’re out of the Guild. Don’t care if others follow these rules or not, that’s their problem. Always report abuse.))

The Goal of the Cult

To assail fidelity, to venerate Evil and the unrighteous, to inflict the people with injuries and suffering; and foremost, to pour out their blood for Bjolmur. Hurting others pleases Bjolmur, and this is ideal.



Image
The Goal of the Cultist

You must become the cult. You are not an individual. You are the cult.

Image


Image
Becoming the Cult:


Justice: Pursue the path of the dishonorable, fettered and obstructed by one’s faith in Bjolmur. Crush your enemy totally with all means at your disposal to please Bjolmur. ((Cloud them once, never twice, and ask them for any perma-kills if the RP requires it))

Loyalty: Your loyalty is for none but Bjolmur.

Offense: Always seek to destroy the territory of Gobaith, your enemies and all of those whom Bjolmur deems worthy of destruction. Never have mercy, or you are weak, and WILL die. ((Always emote twice before an attack to allow an escape))

Courage: Bjolmur despises the weak of heart. You must not have fear.

Faith: Bjolmur is your master. You put all faith and obedience in her.

Pride: You are not an individual. You have pride only in Bjolmur, not in yourself. You may only feign pride as a deception.

Lawlessness: You shall commit any crime of common law. You are above the laws and it is your duty to disobey them to the best of your ability. The greatest failure is getting caught.

Image


Image

1. Never betray the Master (Bjolmur).
2. Never put any trust in anyone, learn how to use everyone.

13. When asking for help, appeal to peoples self-interest, never to their mercy or gratitude.
14. Pose as a friend, work as a traitor.
15. Crush your enemy totally.
16. Use absence to increase respect and honor.
17. Keep others in suspended terror: Cultivate an air of unpredictability.
18. Do not build fortresses to protect yourself – Isolation is dangerous.
19. Know who you are dealing with – Do not offend the wrong person.
20. Do not commit to anyone but Bjolmur.
21. Play a sucker to catch a sucker – seem dumber than your mark.

Sections of the Cult:
In the cult, all are one. One being cannot be commanded by different rankings. All are commanded by Bjolmur. The council is obeyed, because they are chosen as the head of the body -the head receives the commands, and carries them on to the rest of the body- There are, however, different sections of the cult: the Dark Priesthood and the Dark Knighthood. The senior members of either section do not command, but train. A fresh member will choose whether or not he wishes to join a section. If he wishes, he may remain as a rogue, crafter, etc.

Combat of the Cult, Dark Knighthood:


Page: (A Member Training to Become A Squire)
They have just began learning from a tutor. Pages are watched by squires and Antipaladins, observing whether they are fit and promising for a future Antipaladin.

Squire: (An Antipaladin in Training)
The second stage of training. They now focus deeply on both religion and combat. Squires can suggest to the council, Pages who are ready to be ranked as Squires. Squires will train Monks in basic combat, and Monks will guide squires in basic religion and prayers.


Antipaladin:
One who’s proficient in arms and trained in the fanatic service of Bjolmur. An Antipaladin is one who has come to know Bjolmur, and devote themselves to her. They can tutor new members, promote Pages, and suggest Squires that are ready to be initiated by the council.

Image

Religion of the Cult, Dark Priesthood:

Acolyte
A member beginning their training in the religion of Bjolmur. They will learn of the basic cult rituals, prayers, and nature of the Dark Lady. They will perform tasks during rituals, and be assigned to keeping record of minor events.

Monk
A member that has passed the first phase of training. They begin to learn basic combat from the squires, and teach basic religion to the squires in return. They will learn advanced religion, and take up a craft to benefit the Cult. Monks can reccomend Acolytes for promotion.

Dark Priest
They have gone through intense religious training. They know advanced rituals, prayers, and they are moderately proficient in combat. They also are able to work a craft that benefits the cult. A priest is has come to know Bjolmur, and ask for her guidance. They can promote Acolytes, and suggest Monks that are ready to be initiated by the council.

((It has been decided that the cult should focus even more on RP, and even less on killing. Once you knock somebody back, dont cloud them! RP cutting their finger off or something, and if they are a good roleplayer they will also RP it. The use of ritual daggers should only be for the pre-planned -by the entire cult-, RP'd assassination of a governor. Thanks everyone, it's just we dont want to be a pro-clouding guild.))
