RoleChapter 8 Developments(1/2) Added Sat Oct 7 11:28:15 2023 at level 37:My ascent through the imperial ranks has been a fairly smooth affair to date. The Emperor himself promoted me to black magician in recognition of my contributions, and thus I have become a full member of the black sect.
So what of my associates?
The Emperor is a dangerous man. Personable, certainly, and perhaps even gregarious at times; and yet I am never in doubt of our difference in station. That is real power, and it is a thing to be observed and studied for the cultivation of it in myself. Perhaps it would be preferable if the Emperor had been weak and lacking for my ambitions, but this is an opportunity not to be squandered.
The Dread Lord is a fellow diabolist, though one that I have mixed impressions of so far. I find his mental acuity to be rather lacking, though such is the way of his race. Doubtless his arm is strong where the mind is not, and that has its place. Perhaps he can be directed with a delicate touch, though caution is required. The way of brutes is to use a hammer when a scalpel would suffice, and so if he feels I am overreaching his reaction may prove extreme.
The one elite of the black I have encountered is one of these newly emerged vampyres. Laisren by name, and a creature of few words. Of him I worry little, for though he is poised in better position to take the Dread Lord's seat I also do not believe he will be difficult to cast down when the time comes, for even among the newly rising imperials he seems distinctly unpopular for some reason. Perhaps it is his nature, or his indifference to imperial matters at large, but even rising blades have mentioned there disdain to me in private. I will cultivate the Emperor's favour, and monitor this particular situation carefully.
Murrezk is a young blade performing a rather meteoric rise. Highly capable and an impressive combatant, we have formed a good working relationship. This has proved to my benefit, as he sells me wands at reasonable prices; but more to the point I strongly suspect he shall be the next War Master if he continues as he is. Perhaps he will stumble and fail as so many seem to do, but if not: the seeds of a potent political ally have been planted. He has expressed his dislike for Laisren to me in private, which is only better for my ambitions.
Of the Shadow I have seen little, though the Shadow Lord seems like an efficient man. The divine I find unimpressive as of this time; none of their rising priests have struck me as particularly noteworthy. The lone acolyte that abides at the height of his training is a priest of that thieving adventurer, so must be watched carefully. No doubt there is some plot a foot, for all the smiles and offer of prayers.
And so I move to the last subject. The matter of religion.
