Shadowbound

We came here as outsiders. Nobodies. Destroying the precious lands these species resided in for a probable thousands of years. Who are we to destroy their world, suck up their magic just so we can enact our otherworldly will on them?

Why...

I came to this place unwillingly, and now that I am here, I should start pestering those that are born and raised here because of some fabricated will to return to the old world? In my opinion, the Rox can fuck themselves. I will not live a day longer, breathing the same air, literally, than these people calling themselves "inventors" and "saviours" of our time.

The Shadowbound

We, the Shadowbound are a community of free thinkers that have turned their backs on the invading, mass destroying killingmaschines that were our peers. Though we come from the same world, we are not the same in the slightest. We would never mindlessly murder the native animals living here, just for the sake of expansion, calling it "liberating".

Our Vows

We vow to live among the shadowy landscape that naturally occurs in this realm. We see the good and reasonable in the animals of this world and will live amongst them as their peers. Additionally, we vow to never let the "souls" living in the clear "liberate" any more land than they already have.
Because we should be the one to adapt, not the other way around.

Operations

We have already stopped convoys throughout Ignotas, most of which by force. The Expo Raid supplies are our current primary goal, but we are operating on every border. One of our main targets is Kate Lyra Langridge, the Botanist currently on the rise, liberating multiple regions and taking part in over ten raids a month.

Relations

Our information network runs deep. Even though we don't want anything to do with Ignotas and its citizens, it is essential to have information on their whereabouts, actions, ressource delegations and more. Our undercover agent web is spun throughout every faccet of infrastructure, sacrificing our dignity and belief by living among the savages. All for the cause. All for the cause.

Companionship

"All the Beasts are deadly and dangerous" they say. "Slaughter or be Slaughtered". "Kill for Liberty". All of this is nonsense. We have lived years now inside the wilds, integrating ourselves into the world and finding companionship within this "oh so dangerous" world. Yes there were sacrifices, and yes some of us died, but such is nature, and it is all by design.
