The preservance of the mind, the vigilance to watch for the lurking in shadows, and the determination to stand against the greatest of threats.

We are the Society of the Ordered Mind; bound by duty and by creed to fulfill these virtues. We are those who believe in an understanding. We understand that our greatest foe is the preversion of nature, the alien of mind and design, the aberration.

The insideous Mind Flayer, the malicious Beholder, the brutish Umber Hulk, the cunning Hook Horror; All monstrosities against the order, all the most dangerous predators. In the dark they breed and spawn and for us they come: Man, Dwarf, Elf, Gnome, and Halfling. And in the dark they are least seen, hidden. Your mothers and councilors and officers will speak of them as childhood monsters to frighten little boys into being still.

But there are those of you who know the truth, like us. There are those of you who have seen the horror. To you we call out as bretheren to join the fold. To become a member of the Society of the dedicated, of the crusaders. To live and fall by the credo: "We will fight so others will not have to."

You whose minds are as stern as steel, to turn and thwart invasion. You whose skills and bodies are to become tools of protection of that which is holy, and weapons to destroy that which is vile and unnatural. You whose souls are ready and willing to give for others. You who will fight to free the suffering and the lost; to save the ignorant and doubtful; to slay the chitenous and grotesque evils of the Underdark. You are he who who we embrace in brotherhood.

Take steps to the Chapterhouse of the Society of the Ordered Mind. There you will find us.

By the Loyal Fury and the All Seeing Eye we wait for your arrival.
