[QUOTE="Sanglorian, post: 6179395, member: 83822"] Inspired by the Jesuits, and the conspiracy theories surrounding them. [B]The Temple School and The Extreme Oath of the Temple Invisible[/B] (29.14) The priests of the Temple Invisible go about the Shrouded City and abroad, teaching the virtue of Alberon and spreading the faith. None disclose - some do not even know - that their dark mission is the destruction of a god and their true allegiance lies with the King in Splendour. The core of assassins inherited from the Brotherhood of the Spear are but a fraction of the order. Most are simple priests, scholars and teachers. They spend their lives with Alberon in their hearts. Those who show great devotion - not all of them potential assassins - are inducted into the order proper and say the Extreme Oath: This Temple School is for orphans and poor children, as well as converts from the theocratic city-states that the Temple Invisible runs on other continents. The students are taught the basics, including theology. An unusual focus on athletics, stealth, poisons and warfare is explained away as a nostalgic holdover from the order's martial past. In fact, the most talented and dogmatic children are picked out to rise through the order with the eventual hope of recruiting them with the Extreme Oath.
