Reputation Rewards - Shadow Enclave

Latest Reputation rewards from the Shadow Enclave found here.


The Abyss
The Abyss is a building in the Shadow Enclave that contains many different organizations for members of the Enclave to join. They cater to all walks of life and interests, but above all they wish to gain new members to meet their own ends.

Joining is simple, most of the organizations will take people at face value. However from there the organizations usually require accomplishments and deeds done to advance further.

There are many things that can come from these organizations, but it should be warned that when you travel too far down the dark path, it's often very hard to turn away...
Blood Witch
Organization: Blood Letters
Leader: Lirvanus the Blood Queen
Motto: Blood is life…and death.
Path: Cleric
The Blood Letters were once a scattered cult that hides themselves in the shadows of large cities, practicing their dangerous magic on anything and everything they could get their hands on. With the return of the Shadow Enclave to Faerun, the Crypt Dwellers slowly began to migrate towards it, viewing it as a place were they could live without the fear of being caught and punished.

For some time the Blood Letters lived in the Shadow Enclave, but without order or organization. It wasn’t until Lirvanus emerged, a talented human mage, did the cult gain respect and fear. Lirvanus anointed herself Blood Queen of the cult and culled out any opposition to her or her ruling with vigor, causing those who remained to fear her power, and thus she gaining their loyalty. While many Blood Letters are eager to gain more power and strength, many do it in fear that Lirvanus might view them as a threat, and end their life as she has done with so many others.

It is rumored she constructed the Butchery where captured slaves of Shadow Enclave are sold for sport killing. Such a thing is not directly provable, but many have noted the distinct lack of bodies ever leaving the Butchery. Many believe they are being used for a much darker purpose.

Blood Witches are considered the bottom tier of the Blood Letters, and very few have actual blood magic powers. They are taught several spells to temporarily augment the powers of others.

Shadow Adept
Organization: Consuming Shadow
Leader: Gurva the Shade
Motto: The shadows eventually take us all…
Path: Sorcerer
The Consuming Shadow has been around as long as Shar has been a goddess. These devote followers tap into the Shadow Weave, the very energy that originates from Shar herself. The Consuming Shadow is probably one of the most well known Shar cults in Faerun.

The cultists believe that the Shadow Weave was given to them by Shar and they should learn to learn to use and consume as much as of it as possible, because the Shadow Weave was a personal gift given to them by Shar. The cultists do not hold the rest of the Shadow Enclave in the same light as they do each other. They view most of the people as ‘fakers’ who don’t truly believe in Shar and are only there for their own gain. Only through the Consuming Shadow does one really show their dedication to Shar.

Gurva the Shade currently leads the Consuming Shade, a ghost like being whose only care is to serve Shar the best he can. Those in the Consuming Shadow who he views does not serve Shar the best they can, he consumes their essence adding it to his own.

Organization: Last Sound
Leader: Ivansha the Doom Soul
Motto: You shall make me strong long after you have died.
Path: Warlock
The Last Sound is a relatively new sect within the Shadow Enclave, gaining members and notoriety within the last 5 years. Even though they may be relatively new, and their magics untested, they wield a terribly fierce and effective tool set.

The Last Sound started when their leader, a drow by the name of Ivansha, made a pact with one of Shar’s top demon advisors, Yurv the Soul Collector. With this pact, Yurv transferred onto Ivansha the knowledge that is required to reap and harvest the souls of the living. After many years of training and honing her skills, Yurv found herself dissatisfied with the power she has gained, and decided to find a way of gaining more.

In an act of betrayal, Ivansha killed Yurv the Soul Collector and extracted his soul, implanting it within herself to gain his knowledge and power. The new being that was created, Ivasha the Doom Soul, became wildly more powerful than her previous form. She used this power and knowledge to begin teaching other students on how to harness such powers.

Soul Takers are the most basic members of the Last Sound, knowing how to deem basic knowledge from the souls they take. They are still unable to fully tap into the powers that a soul can provide.
