Priests
of the Black Cloak
Priests of the Black Cloak use the Dark Arts for personal gain.
Priests of the Black Cloak are most frequently humans, although periodically either dwarves or evil Underdark races will be found. Unlike the Grey Priests, who interact with the spirits of the dead, the Black Cloaks simply see the dead as a resource to exploit. As to the living, Black Priests see them as weak minded and closed to the possiblities undead bring. Black Priests will seek to dominate such individuals. Their alignment tends towards Lawful Evil or Neutral Evil.
