THE ORDER OF TAIBHSE™
“An gnu pears anta no oifigiuil e?" This is the motto of the Order: Is it personal or
official? Before a member draws his sword, he must know the final outcome will be death.
Pronounced "TEV-sheh", Taibshe warriors are known as 'ghosts' or 'apparitions'. Members are masters
at misdirection, the art of deception in which the attention of an onlooker is focused on one thing in order to distract his attention from another. They can
move freely...unseen...among their targets without detection.
The Order, itself, is a time-honored membership of male warriors who have been tested in the cauldron
of adversity and found worthy of joining. His sponsor must be a member in good standing and he must pass a rigid Code of Conduct testing as
well as a thorough background check. All members are Deathwielders, Scythelords, and Windwarriors: expert swordsmen who can kill without batting an eye. Only the most elite among their classes may
ask for admittance into the Order. Founded by Prince Ashlin Druaightagh of the Scaan, there are only two rules of the Order:
(01. Sworn secrecy of the Order's Agenda.
(02. A member must never draw his sword unless he intends to slay his opponent. There is no wounding of his enemy, only death.
When he pulls the sword free of its scabbard, he must ask himself if it is for personal or official reasons. If it is official, there is no question.
He does what is expected of him and takes his opponent down. But if it for personal reasons, he must decide if the taking of a life warrants the offense
he is avenging. The inscription upon his blade is a reminder to think before he acts for once drawn, the blade must mete out death.
