Forge

The Forge is a building of the Lotus Clan.

About

This forge is consecrated to Lythis, the Brother whose wicked blade once trimmed the roots of the Tree of Corruption. Within, initiates forge swords from steel, moonlight and their own blood. These weapons never break, and are said to cut the soul as easily as they slice flesh.

A Lotus smith is the keeper of many secrets. Silvered Steel is difficult to work, but results in superior weapons for the Blade Acolytes. Blade Acolytes, the Infested Ones and the Diseased Ones can all improve their sturdiness by following the Way of the Root, and Leprosy makes both Infested Ones and Diseased Ones even more infectiously deadly.

Training

The Forge trains the following units:

• Peasants into Blade Acolytes
• Leaf Disciples into Infested Ones
• Staff Adepts into Diseased Ones
