Ebon Lodge
Hidden, antagonistic organization
Following in the footsteps of its legendary namesake of old, the Ebon Lodge is a secretive and enigmatic cult that espouses a nihilistic philosophy and embraces the pursuit of dark and forbidden powers. Believing in the inherent superiority of humanity, the cult sees itself as the vanguard of a new era of human ascendancy, where power and dominion are the ultimate goals. Rejecting the notion of equality as a lie and unobtainable, the Ebon Lodge seeks to dominate and control through secrecy, manipulation, and the wielding of arcane forces.
Central to their practices is a proclivity for demon worship, believing that harnessing the powers of the infernal realms will grant them the strength needed to achieve their goals. Their rituals, shrouded in mystery and conducted in shadowed sanctums, involve dark invocations and sacrifices to summon demonic entities and gain their favor. Operating from the shadows, the Ebon Lodge plots and schemes, seeking to usher in a new age under their rule, where darkness reigns supreme and humanity stands unchallenged atop the world's hierarchy.

Comprised of barbaric followers, fringe mages, enslaved laborers, and captured victims, the cult operates from the shadows, seeking to bring about a new era of human ascendancy through the domination of dark forces and the uncovering of ancient artifacts. Led by fringe mages who continue arcane practices in secret, the cultists revere their leaders and adhere to their beliefs out of fear or a hunger for power. Enslaved halflings serve as forced labor, while captured dwarves and elves are subjected to torture in an attempt to extract arcane secrets. With a disdain for other races and a nihilistic worldview, the Ebon Lodge seeks to establish humanity's superiority and usher in a world where darkness reigns supreme.
"Hark and fear no more that darkened citadel, laid low by virtue's hand. In the crucible of strife, the righteous prevailed, and the world exalts in deliverance. Let their defeat serve as testament to faith's strength and divine providence. Blessed is truth's light, where tyranny ends, and the world, teetering on the brink of darkness, bathes in eternal fortune."
Psalms of Saint Arundel 12:19
