Temple of Ash

The Garden has gone fallow, and the Fire has been extinguished. Such things are, by their nature, transitory. In the end, all that is breaks apart into its smaller pieces, body or soul. From this, it might be remade anew by the all-encompassing splendor of the Dream. Thus is the Shadow, thus is the Ash.

— Dolor Gavan, Priest of the Temple, delivering a sermon

Structure

The Temple of Ash is heavily decentralized. The clergy choose, train, and induct new members of their own ranks from among the willing laity, and all members of the Temple collectively determine their leader from among the clergy.

Public Agenda

The violation of the law in the Dominion of Ngavar, violating legal authority with the purpose of destabilizing natural law by proxy.

Assets

Due to its operation within a center of trade, the Temple of Ash has accrued a wide array of wealth and stolen goods over its years of operation. It also has access to the more nebulous capabilities of its laity, which includes thieves, smugglers, and assassins.
