Collective

The Collective is a cult dedicated to the Great Old One. They are barely known outside scholarly circles, mostly due to the extremely low membership. But since the awakening of the Great Old One in 486, the number of members increased drastically, and their leaders have been granted extraordinary powers.

The most prominent feature of this cult is their mentality, which dictates that members act like parts of the same organism with no regard to the individual, which often manifests in exhaustion, sometimes human sacrifices and even suicide attacks.The leaders of the cult are linked by a telepathic link, which allows individual cells of the cult to organize themselves. Also, any attack against a cell is perceived by the others and they will not rest until they took vengeance on the attackers. Because of this trait, most well-informed adventurers and mercenaries refuse to take on the cult.

In 487 the Avalanche was tricked into fighting a cell of the Collective by the deviless Maliel, as revenge for their interference with her plans with the city of Timbergrad.
