Notes |
The Cult of Gark the Calm thrives in the shadowy corners of Hombori Tondo, exploiting the city’s disparities of wealth and power to recruit desperate followers. In a city teeming with intrigue and unrest, the cult offers a seductive promise: eternal peace, freedom from life’s burdens, and the utility of uncomplaining, undead servitude. Gark’s followers—known as Garkists—are practical necromancers who use corpses as tools of labor and societal function, particularly as tireless workers for the city’s ambitious building projects, trade enterprises, and even menial labor.
Battle cries:
1. “Peace in Death!”
A chilling cry as they advance, offering their enemies the “mercy” of eternal calm.
2. “Join the Labor Eternal!”
Spoken with eerie conviction, as if the enemy is already destined to become a part of their tireless workforce.
3. “The Stillness Claims You!”
A foreboding declaration, meant to freeze their foes in fear as they march forward.
4. “Work, Obey, Decay!”
A mantra that embodies the cult’s cold pragmatism and the fate they see for all.
5. “The Calm Takes All!”
A grim, resolute proclamation of Gark’s inevitability, shouted as they charge.
6. “Yield to the Eternal!”
Spoken with a mix of fervor and menace, implying resistance is pointless.
7. “Your Flesh Has Purpose!”
A macabre cry, driving home the cult’s view of corpses as resources.
8. “No Rest for the Living!”
A dark inversion of their ideals, marking their enemies for toil—or death.
9. “To Stillness, To Service!”
An unsettlingly serene chant as they engage in combat, reflecting their zealous calm.
10. “All Hail the Silent God!”
A reverent shout, elevating Gark’s presence as they bring violence cloaked in peace.
