Domination
Often invisible to the untrained eye, the Chaos entities summoned by practitioners of Domination - members of the Occultist and (less frequently) Outcast classes - can be some of the deadliest companions in Achaea.
Though once connected with the Chaos Plane, Lord Taug, and Prince Pazuzu are no longer welcome there, and thus no bargains can be made with these two Chaos Lords through the abilities of Domination.

Golgotha | Golgotha, the Ascendant's Thrall |
Though a mere shadow of his former glory, Golgotha will pact with occultists. He will grant a protection from attempts to magically banish your chaotic servants back to the Chaos Plane, though it will only aide you when you are in the same location as the targeted entities. | |
Dameron | Jy'Barrak Dameron, the Hand
[ |

Palpatar | Palpatar, the Glutton of Glaaki. |
When summoned, Palpatar will send to you a chaos worm. When COMMANDed to attack, the worm will infest your victim with its maggots, causing the next attempt to gain the heightened speed defence to be significantly inhibited. | |
Nin'Kharsag | Nin'Kharsag, the Slime Master. |
Summoning the Slime Lord will cause a chaos slime to be sent to you. When COMMANDed, it will envelop your victim and cause them to be unable to perceive what they are curing through inaccurate methods such as tree tattoos. | |
Istria | Istria, the pathfinder. |
When called upon, Istria, known as the Pathfinder, will send to you a pathfinder entity. Wherever you summon the pathfinder entity will be home to it. Later, you may simply ORDER PATHFINDER HOME to be taken back to where the pathfinder was summoned from. | |
Marduk | Marduk, the eater of souls. |
Marduk will send to you a soulmaster entity. This entity may be ordered to POSSESS an adventurer. When it does, it will take a few seconds to gain control of the victim's mind. Once it has done this, you may ORDER <adventurer> <command>. Doing this is quite difficult for the soulmaster though, so you will be restricted to doing it once every few seconds. | |
Nemesis | Nemesis. |
Nemesis will send to you a humbug. The humbug, when COMMANDed, will deliver various afflictions of the mind to your victim. | |
Buul | Buul, the Chaos Chirurgeon. |

Cadmus | Cadmus, the cursed shaman. |
Cadmus will, when summoned, send to you a bubonis entity, which can be COMMANDed to attack your target. If your unfortunate victim suffers from at least three afflictions from among haemophilia, clumsiness, sensitivity, healthleech, darkshade or lethargy, it will bring down a curse upon them. This curse will cause your unfortunate victim be struck down with a new physical affliction each time they attempt to focus their mind. The curse can only be cured by curing all other afflictions that your victim may suffer from. | |
Piridon | Piridon, the shapechanger. |
When you summon Piridon, he will send to you a doppleganger. The doppleganger will look like you, though it must be referred to as 'doppleganger'. The doppleganger is much different from other entities in that it may be remotely commanded. Actions:
Special note about channeling: the channel to your doppleganger is a two-way link, however briefly it may be in operation. Any backlash from an attack channeled through your doppleganger has a very high likelihood of continuing through that link and harming you directly. | |
Danaeus | Danaeus, the dark savant. |
Danaeus will send to you a Chaos Storm. You may command the storm to afflict your victim with vertigo. | |
Xenophage | Xenophage, keeper of the chaos gate. |
Xenophage will, when called upon, bring you instantly to the Chaos Plane. However, you must be on full health and mana to use this. | |
Lycantha | Lycantha, Keeper of the Hounds. |
Lycantha, Keeper of the Hounds, will send to you a chaos hound. This fearful beast can be COMMANDed to attack an adventurer, causing damage with its massive, tooth-filled maw. The more afflictions your victim suffers from, the more damage the hound will be capable of inflicting. | |
Tarotlink | Command your doppleganger to throw tarot cards. |
After giving a tarot card to your doppleganger, you'll be able to order it to charge and fling it remotely! Note that not all of the tarots can be used by the doppleganger. For instance: Death and Hermit, among others. | |
Hecate | Hecate, Mother of the Crones. |
Hecate will send to you a withered old crone. The crone when COMMANDed, can cause whispering madness to be incurable for a short time. The target must have at least five afflictions to be struck down by the crone. | |
Glaaki | Glaaki, the Eldritch Ascendant |
Ancient; formidable; greatest of the Chaos Lords. The Eldritch Ascendant is all of these and many things left best unspoken. Ruthlessly pragmatic, Glaaki tore his rule from the hands of those thought untouchable. Any who pact with him beware, for slights can fester a thousand years or more. To those granted his grace, the Ascendant shall bestow the use of one of his abominable servants. This avatar, when commanded to violate a victim whose aura has been made sufficiently vulnerable to external assault, shall determine the fundamental nature of the target and grant the occultist the greatest weapon of all; knowledge of their subject's true name.
