Societies: Fiery Fist
| Summary: | Members of the Fist are dedicated to cleansing the world of evil through the judicious application of magical flame. | |
| Estimated Membership: | Less than 100 | |
| Leader: | Malik, Flame of the East. | |
| Headquarters: | Unknown | |
| Type of Society: | Secret |
Public Purpose:
Members of the Fist seek to kill their enemies, typically by burning them to death either through magical or normal flame. Although they say they cleanse evil, most disagree since they don't seem to ask anyone who is evil before they start killing. There are documented instances of their members burning out farmers and villages for even the tiniest of slights.
Membership Requirements:
Must be able to use magical fire and have used it to noteworthy and dramatic effect at least once. Must be of non-good alignment..
Membership:
Nearly all the well-known members of this group are cold-blooded killers. If they've burned out evil it's only because it was closer. They take on aliases and geographic titles (like Flame of the East) and will sometimes kill a rival and add his title to their own. (Thinking of them as Pro-wrestling meets fire magic is a decent analogy.`
Organization:
They are organized into cliques centered around a central powerful figure who teaches the lessers some tricks while making sure they remain lessers. Usually, they settle disputes with acts against others (most vicious attack wins), but occasionally they fight amongst themselves..
Social Benefits:
There is a certain fear associated with attacking a reputed member of the Fist, since they are said to claim vengeance. On the other hand, only a fool (or very powerful magician) openly proclaims his membership in the Fist..
Game Benefits:
Access to numerous unique fire spells, some tutelage by more experienced flame mages.
Penalties:
No one likes members of the Fist, but they often fear them..
