[QUOTE="cbwjm, post: 8004794, member: 6788732"] This is what I took from one of those old Theros articles which leads me to believe they lean more towards evil that good (not that I use alignment but they don't sound like a "good" race). Also, my comment about the colours was wrong, they are typically green/red and green/black. I had thought that they had red as a common colour.
