A Growing Scourge

Once the Manawarped had established a Nest below Haarwatch, residents of Haarwatch and the Manawarped both received a Quest to either destroy or protect it, with the ultimate reward being Territorial Authority. Various actions granted contribution credit toward being declared the victor:

* Killing a Manawarped Revenant awarded standard contribution.
* Killing a Manawarped Ghoul awarded extra contribution.
* Defeating the Deceit of Misfortune awarded significant contribution.
* Killing the Pride of Blight awarded significant contribution.
* Destroying a Scale of the Ravager King awarded significant contribution three times.
* Killing the Larval Broodmother completed the Quest.

The survivors of Haarwatch divided themselves up in to three main groups: Guild Remnant, Inquisition Remnant, and the Fiend's Faction. They were in opposition to the Manawarped Hive which wanted to destroy the other threats, and the Archon's Forces who were not eligible for Authority and tried to prevent any other group from obtaining it.

Upon Quest completion Eliza DuFont, leading the Inquisition Remnant, was declared the winner and gained Authority, though Felix Nevarre, Calesca Boscal, and Elder Uldred Teine were eligible contenders to contest that Authority for a limited time. Ultimately Cal gained Authority and became the new leader of Haarwatch.
