I'm getting extremely tired of seeing that shiny new mmo that everyone raves about and finding out that the thing includes bunny peple/fox people/wolf people/bear people, etc.

Does anyone else share my angst?

I will not play PFO the day catfolk, kitsune or anything similar becomes playable.

The Leper Consortium

Name: The Leper Consortium
Tax Rate: 50%
Alignment: Chaotic Evil
Government: Oligarchy
Membership Policy: Approved

Premise: The Leper Consortium is a chartered company with a simple agenda: To spread butchery, dark magic and hatred throughout as much of Galorion as possible. This means the typical member is either a psychopath or selfishly absorbed in acquiring wealth through thievery, pillaging and the like. We hold great reverence for necromancers, the undead, vermin, aberrations and other quintessentially icky or evil monsters. Although military conquest is our first and foremost priority, we will also want a solid economic engine of harvesters and crafters.

If you want to be a member of a council of irredeemable supervillains who kill for sport and suck the life out of the world around them, The Leper Consortium is where you belong, period. We are evil without compromise. As an oligarchy, our government will provide many positions of power. We currently have two rulers:

Verrun Hanotep: On the messageboards, you will know him as me. He is a psychopathic elven wizard/rogue with a penchant for raising zombies, stabbing people and teleporting away.

Brom Karrak:: His avatar name on the boards is Down. This extremely unpleasant human barbarian loves kill things and will be an important front line tactician.

Goals: Eventually we would like to expand from a chartered company to a settlement and even a kingdom. We want to dismantle the cities of the good to the best of our ability. In other words, war without end.

What about the tax rate?: You may have noticed the extremely high official tax rate. This is an important decision which I would like to stick with. What a 50% tax rate, individuals will reap lower rewards but our armies will be extraordinarily well funded. This is how a professional army should work.

Religion: Urgathoa and the slightly lesser known Ghlaunder are our two most important deities, but any god that promotes the dark arts or vile creatures is regarded with respect

Tactics: Our devotion to military tactics in theory and practice is a big part of what makes us different from most other groups. As soon as beta is opened, we will want members on the inside taking ranks in soldiering and experimenting with tactics. I was tempted to say that we would use walls of Evil clerics with zombies, channeling negative energy to simultaneously heal the undead and hurt enemies.I was also tempted to say we would use a lot of poison. The truth is, none of us know what military tactics will be like in-game, but our members want to be among the first to explore perusing military careers.


I've been following this project from almost day one and decided it's finally time to get involved in the community. So to that end, hello.

A lot of the chartered companies that have been started seem like fun, but I was surprised to see very few groups dedicated to evil. All I can find on the boards is a thread about that lack of such groups. I have awoken from my complacent slumber and decided to help change that.

What I want to do here, rather than making a pitch, is to extend my hand to anyone who wants to collaborate on a group dedicated to evil gods or evil as an ideal.

Such a group would be a haven for foul mages and anyone who wants to rape and pillage the nations of Galorion for the sport of it while lining their pockets with gold. A chartered company would be a great start: A group military in nature but self sustainable. The goal is to make a nation or city where the rivers flow pale with pus and the very land weeps with cancer.

Furthermore, I think an oligarchy structure would work. Firstly, a chaotic evil community seems like the kind where a single centralized leader would contradict the fluff of CE. Secondly, I am not recruiting minions but collaborators, and so I want to be able to share the spoils of the effort with anyone motivated enough to work on this.

Give war a chance.
