The Accursed Deacon

There was a time when the one they call the Accursed Deacon was a Faithful much loved by his people. There was a time when this Dwarf was one of the principal messengers of the gods of Tir-Nâ-Bor on Aarklash. There was a time when his path crossed that of a Dwarf of Mid-Nor named Yh-Karas and in which they became archenemies. The Faithful's faith was blown away by Ephorath's supernatural powers...

The Despot in person breathed his will into the badly bruised body of the Dwarf who once was draped in virtue. He made him his Deacon, his missionary among all the peoples of Aarklash.


Being a Warrior-Monk, Ysilthan normally has the right to only one miracle. Nevertheless, he can, if he wishes, acquire miracles of which the Cult is "Reserved to Ysilthan" in addition to this one.

During the game, right after having calculated his reserve of Temporary Faith at the beginning of a Divination phase, the Accursed Deacon can sacrifice 1 to 3 T.F. points to strengthen the bond that unites him with the Despot. He then acquires the Leadership ability. Its range in cm is equal to the number of T.F. points sacrificed times 5. This effect lasts until the beginning of the next Divination phase.
