The Illuminators

Category:Organizations
== Core Values ==
* Provide Safe Refuge: The world is dangerous and needs a safe haven for those that cannot defend themselves.
* Burn Away Blight: Some monsters are ordinary men that need to be brought into the revealing power of the light.
* Guard the Light: Knowledge is power and it must be guarded and used wisely to rebuild civilization
== Locations ==
* Candlespring. The Illuminators currently reside in the northwestern corner of former Unicorn Clan territory. They have a town there named Candlespring which is magically protected from monsters. This town serves as the centerpoint of their operations, but they scout all over the western part of Xi’Shu.
* The Prism. In eastern Scorpion Clan territory, near Bastakal, the Illuminators run a prison known as the Refracted Reformitorium.
== Members ==
* Aurdol, a middle-aged Aasimar with a fire to help those in need, is the leader of the Illuminators. He stays within the boundaries of Candlespring, helping renew their protective barrier day after day with his magic. He doesn’t like to fight but works to better the lives of those affected by The Great Fluxx or those harmed by the vile beasts that stalk in shadow.
* Cori Burrows was a member of the Illuminators when she met the Campaign 3 party. After being told about the torturings at the Prism, she had a break in faith.
== End Goal ==
Maintaining their safe town for those that need defending is plenty enough for now, but eventually it would be nice to return to a world without fear of the unknown; either by cleansing the land or learning all that is valuable to learn and destroying the rest.
== Other Interesting Things ==
* Aurdol seems to have a personal vendetta against Zetana, but the reason is unknown.
* The faction’s warriors dedicate themselves to living like a certain Fox Clan swordsage who exposed the Manes' festering darkness for the world to see.
* It is extremely easy to join the Illuminators as you simply take a vow to follow their core tenets with a small ceremony to mark new members.
== Thematic Things ==
The Illuminators are heavily tied to candles and gothic medieval armor/weaponry. They use mostly radiant and/or celestial magic.
Illuminators are usually characterized by their clothing, which is typically cloths of red and white (like the old Crane Clan colors)
