The Other Temples

Skills which the undead he becomes is incapable of learning or using are refunded and the points may be spent immediately on Undead abilities.
  • [LOSE] They are treated as having the Work with Conclave skill with other members of the Temple.

Chaos

The Temple of Chaos does not actually have any leaders as such. Instead any member may devise a project to spread chaos and call for volunteers. Each member may then join, ignore or actively oppose the project. A member’s influence in the Temple is then judged by how successful his projects are. The individual recognised as the Guildmaster can change at any time, and there can be several recognised as such at any one time.

Anarchy
