The Sentinels of the Shroud

[Meldread]

The Sentinels are a group that view the Mist as a holy relic, the remnant of the goddess Mystryl.  While they do not worship the Mist they view it as sacred and part of the Weave.  They have dedicated themselves to seeking out knowledge, both new and old, defending practitioners of the Art (wizardry), and striving to maintain the integrity of the Weave meanwhile promoting their beliefs regarding the Mist.

They are a strongly good aligned group.  While most of those who would find themselves interested in the Sentinel's are worshipers of Azuth, Mystra, and Savras it is technically open to all faiths.  Followers of Oghma, Selune, Helm, Hoar, and Deneir, just to name a few of the human deities, could also easily find a home in the group.

Outside of their beliefs surrounding the Mist, Magic, and the Weave the goals of the individual members are fairly broad.  You can join any number of other factions, PC or DM, provided you can ICly get entry.

There is no official rank or structure to the Sentinels.  When a member joins they are considered the first among equals, and they refer to each other as Brother or Sister.  Their title when being referred to by others is Sentinel.  When disputes arise within the group, they strive to come to a communal agreement either by those who are present or the group as a whole.  

Many of the Sentinels will likely be joining the Transcendent Conclave in an attempt to wield some amount of influence over the wizards within.  However, this is not necessary in order to be a member.

The faction was largely created and designed to be a setting appropriate, broad-based faction, that good aligned (and those of neutral but leaning good alignments) could join and influence the server.

For more in character detail pick up this book from the Colonial Library.

With the above out of the way, my character (Paladin of Azuth) is seeking to join the Transcendent Conclave.  If anyone wants to create a wizard to join the Conclave and bond my Paladin to them (which will have to be worked out in game) I am open to it.

So if you have interest in joining the Sentinels as a good aligned wizard, have the intention of joining the Conclave, and want a Paladin bonded to you...  here is your opportunity. ;)

PM me if you have questions.

How can you leave out Velsharoon, he is a god of magic and works under Azuth... :P

[Thomas_Not_very_wise]

People should join. Or i'd smash their faces in.

Because we consider that to be a lie spread by the Church of Velsharoon to establish some legitimacy. >_>

We're not anti-necromancy, though.  Just animation of the undead and other evil acts of necromancy.

Nice! There's a lack of Good aligned factions. I'll deffinetely think of it in a next concept.
