League of Skulls


 * The League of Skulls is intent on acquiring powerful artifacts. They've been around for well over a century, but somehow the Whiteguard's never heard of them until very recently. Their organizational structure is sketchy, but includes at least orators and skull clippers. They seem to be interested in testing avatars with various tasks that revolve around the virtues. Some tasks seem diabolical, others seem just. Their agenda is puzzling, to be certain.

Orators

 * The Orators are the spokespersons for the League of Skulls. The Whiteguard believes they first appeared when the outlanders first flooded into Novia. The orators themselves seem harmless, but they are very interested in testing the virtues of new avatars. - Whiteguard Mahrs

Skull Clippers

 * Skull Clippers are the relentless enforcers of the League of Skulls. Anyone who doesn't complete an orator's task can expect a deadly Skull Clipper ambush in their near future. They wear masks carved from actual human skulls. - Whiteguard Mahrs

Trivia
''In some towns and even in some adventure scenes, there will be a Skull Orator who will give out League of Skulls missions, based on your standing with the League. If you're on their bad side, you may be able to redeem yourself in their... eye sockets. They will SLOWLY reveal more about themselves the more you encounter them.''
