The enemies of the Nightreaver side of Outlander are many. They don't really have any allies. Tribunal isn't the only enemy. Empire, Scion and Fortress are definitely going to be your enemies. Since Nexus is going to attack you when the balance is shifted, an evil Outlander isn't going to forgive them and will probably attack them even when they would be an ally. Ragers are full of dwarves and duergar, so they become enemies. Not all of them are, but, by then, an evil Outlander may start attacking them on sight. Heralds live in a civilized establishment that caters to folks from civilization. They even think of the Harbinger and Sunwarden branches of Outlander as "future food". They use them to advance, protect the fetish etc. So, who are their allies? Basically any evil outcast from society who may or may not be another evil Outlander.

This isn't empire. You don't forget and suck it up. Aunkdunell inducted evil folks that were right for the cabal. If you are playing a subservient evil trying to impress a Nightreaver, all you are going to do is piss him off. At least that's what I would expect my Nightreaver to do.

Meh. The numbers don't really support the above statement. Numbers aren't what they were 10 years ago. We all know it. But, I see the daily numbers hitting the 60's during peak hours all the time. People get older, find other things to do and move on. That is the largest factor of lower numbers in the playerbase.
