The '''Vigil''' | The '''Vigil''' are a motley a band of people who apparently convened to monitor the [[element|elemental]] planes after the death of [[Agatheis]]. In reality, they were a sleeper cell, one with an onus passed down through generations, with the secret purpose of freeing [[Pazuzu]], the demon prince. | ||
At the outset of the [[Elemental War]] in 757 AF the Vigil, led by [[Tiamenjiara]], rallied [[adventurers]] to locate the [[elemental conduits]], ostensibly in to restore the balance of the elements. Over the following months, Sapients devised a means to summon the conduits, to the glee of the mysterious group. A ceremony to restore the elements commenced, but it soon became clear that it was a cover for restoration of another kind: that of the [[demons|daemonic]]. Now suffused with connections to the powers underlying all of creation, six members of the Vigil—[[Tiamenjiara]], [[Ryina]], [[Rhuhu]], [[Salyn]], and [[Joshua]]—ritually sacrificed themselves, directing the energy towards [[Kasmarkin]] to shatter the crystal prison of the demon prince and finally fulfilling their centuries-long objective. Although Pazuzu fled the wrath of the [[Kx'Khrah]] the agents of the Vigil disappeared to lay in wait for his eventual return to power. | |||

When Pazuzu eventually showed his face again in 921 AF the Vigil rallied to their demonic idol, a tiny group of silent saboteurs revealed as an army of terrorists ready to do his bidding. | |||
