Morituri manifesto

We are about to die. Indeed, we are dead already.

Each breath we claw from the clutches of the enemy.

Each heartbeat we wrench from the jaws of defeat -

And, like great Vidar, we smash the monster's mandible in the process.

We do not seek revenge – we are retribution.

We stand, for so long as our legs hold.

We block every evil aimed at innocence.

And when we come to the mighty fellowship of Valhalla,

we are borne on wafts of thermals from the heat of infernal battle,

and we arrive ready to wassail any which way.

Morituri is a collection of wizardkind not with a death wish, but a willingness to die to hold back the Dark. Accreting around Einar Faris, this "club of the unclubbable" is made up of witches and wizards who truly believe no personal sacrifice is too great to prevent the harming of innocence, or oretard the creeping advance of the Dark. Members must show no more, nor less, than absolute committment to the cause, but the ranks contain converts from the dark side, along with those who have trangressed in the name of light.
