Description
I have begun to assemble heroes for our cause. Perhaps you already know Arcanist Valtrois? We will need to recruit more in the future, but this is a promising beginning. Our missions will be those of subterfuge, reconnaissance, assassination, and other focused strikes against our enemies. Let us test the mettle of this nightborne, shall we?
